The accommodations are always very clean and the staff is super friendly! This feels like our home away from home…the wonderful morning breakfasts, the welcoming wine/cheese social, just the comfortable lobby layout makes you feel like you are visiting family more than staying at a hotel. We will always return to Surf Side on any trip to OBX!
