This is a motel, so don't expect daily room service. The room was clean, and the bed was comfortable, with the exception of the flat pillows. The room suited our needs. I enjoyed the mid-century vibe of the motel. It's conveniently located to restaurants and shopping. The manager was friendly.

Very clean, cute room! We literally stepped right out of the sliding door of our room to the sand and beach! Janette’s Pier is about 200 yards up. Pet friendly! There’s a hosing off area right outside. The owners are super nice with lots of information about the area. We will definitely be back to visit this quaint hidden gem!

We LOVE to stay at The Dolphin. It has become our go-to place to stay when we come down to the Outer Banks. The staff is very friendly! It's right on the beach and so close to everything else. Plus, the very kind and relaxing vibe will bring us back time and time again!
