A perfect room for a single or couple looking to check out Manteo and Roanoke Island for a few days. Great location right in town, short walk to shops, art galleries and restaurants. Nice kitchen, washer and dryer, and a comfortable bed. We were very pleased.
This was a very cute place and we have stayed there twice. It's conveniently located in downtown Manteo with a coffee shop, antique stores and a local pub with live music downstairs. It's only a block from the water and lots of restaurants within walking distance. The place is clean, has a comfortable bed, offered coffee pods, bottled water, and a washing machine. We would definitely recommend this lovely place to our family and friends and we plan on staying here again!
The property was immaculately clean. The location great. We were there for 6 nights and really appreciated the fact that there was plenty of toilet paper, coffee, shampoo, body wash, blow dryer, etc. The studio was well stocked which was nice. Bed and pillows were good. We will stay here again!
The pictures don't do justice to how nicely decorated this apartment is! Everything we needed for our stay was provided. There were plenty of nice (new) towels. The kitchen was well equipped....but we got take out or went out to eat every night. There are several good restaurants within walking distance. Our Doodle went into a mourning period when we came back home. He had gotten used to being walked over to Festival Park a couple of times a day. We loved the location and would stay there again.
The property was the perfect size for two people and located in the charming downtown area. The property was very clean, the linens and towels were clean and abundent. We would definitely stay in this location again.

Great place. Very clean and in a perfect location. There was even a seeet neighborhood cat that kept coming to us and saying hi when walking to and from
Location was wonderful…quiet but close to shopping & activities we were interested in. Great studio apartment layout. Everything we needed was provided, along with extras like water & drinks in the fridge. Extremely clean with tasteful furnishings. Convenient parking! We will definitely want to stay again.
This is a perfect place for a weekend get-away! My husband and I loved the location and how you can walk to so many shops, restaurants, and the boardwalk. We enjoyed being about 10 minutes from the beach, while still experiencing the quaintness of downtown manteo. Thank you, Laurie, for opening your studio to us!
This is a great place to stay for a trip to the beach. perfectly located in the Manteo town square making it easy to walk to several places for an evening out. Would highly recommend that you stay here.
We had a great time in Manteo. Its an adorable little town and this apartment is in the heart of it all. Check in was easy and everything was clean and comfortable. It was also really nice to be able to bring our pet along. I highly recommend this property.
The property was perfect for our stay in Manteo. Location is great and the apartment was clean and comfortable. Will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Manteo
