Stop by soon and don’t forget to try our estate grown wines in our stores or visit our vineyard and winery, Sanctuary Vineyards, located adjacent to the original Cotton Gin in Jarvisburg. Most know The Cotton Gin as a must-stop shop for fine gifts, beachwear, souvenirs and so much more, but this retailer has a long-standing history within the Outer Banks. A local landmark that holds almost a century of memories, The Cotton Gin started from humble beginnings and continues to adapt to the times and tourists. Tommy Wright’s family has been in the Outer Banks for nearly 200 years. His great-great grandfather, Jacob Francis Wright, shipwrecked in Duck back in the early 1800s. Calling these barrier islands his new home, Wright and his family acclimated to their new environment. Adaptation is a common theme for the Wright family. Tommy and his wife Candace, who continue to steer The Cotton Gin, have seen not only their business change with the times, but the Outer Banks as a vacation destination as well. A farm market in Jarvisburg eventually transformed and flourished into several retail locations dotting the Outer Banks. “As the area changed and tourism took off in the 1960s, the family saw people coming for vacations, so they began to grow vegetables and things developed from there,” says Tommy Wright. The Wright family expanded upon the farm market and began to remodel a working cotton gin, later transforming the gin into The Cotton Gin general store in the late 1960s. While the additions to the farm store drew visitors, it was their encounters with the Wright family that kept people coming back year after year, which is something that remains true today.

With just a few clicks, guests can effectively view room photos and locations, area maps, featured amenities, and availability. National chains may not have area-specific websites, but by entering your preferred locale, (namely Outer Banks), and conducting a quick search, internet browsers can easily find beachside accommodations.
Several small inns and motels may not have full-service websites available, but they do have friendly staff on hand virtually all day and evening to answer questions and accept reservations over the phone.
Be prepared to have a credit card handy to secure the reservation, and pay careful attention to the hotel or motel's cancellation policies. While most regions of the country generally accept cancellations up to the day of arrival, many Outer Banks lodgings, due to their coastal locale, may require at least 24 hours advance notice in the event of a cancellation.
Several hotels and motels may also require that summer weekend guests stay for two nights, with a Friday check-in and a Sunday morning departure. However, most Outer Banks vacationers do not find this to be an issue, as a long weekend on the OBX can be a complete breath of fresh air.
When should you book an Outer Banks hotel or motel?
Unlike vacation rentals, campgrounds, and even Bed and Breakfasts, a hotel stay can often be booked just a few weeks from your expected vacation. That said, a number of the premier rooms, (i.e., rooms with the best oceanfront views, or with special amenities such as handicapped friendly facilities), may fill up quickly, so potential guests who are looking for a particular location or feature should call as far in advance as possible. Generally rate changes can potentially occur with the start of the year, but are usually advertised well in advance for the convenience of guests.
In addition, guests that are planning to vacation on popular long weekends, (like Memorial Day, Labor Day, or 4th of July Weekends), or who intend to stay for a full-week, should also consider booking well in advance, to ensure their Outer Banks accommodations.
Winter and shoulder season months, (typically recognized from late September until early May), and mid-week stays do not fill up as fast, and patrons will find plenty of accommodations available in all areas of the Outer Banks within these parameters, regardless of when they book. In fact, day trippers who decide to spend the night will likely spot plenty of "Vacancy" signs during the cooler spring, winter and fall seasons.
Where are the local Outer Banks hotels and motels located?
Virtually every area of the Outer Banks has a collection of hotels and motels to choose from, and potential guests will find everything from small, 1-story family-friendly lodgings to exclusive resorts in most every town.
The hotels found in the northern Outer Banks towns of Duck and Corolla are practically designed with luxury in mind. In these towns, vacationers will find invitingly charming inns, and exquisite resorts that feature fine dining restaurants and popular spas on site. Corolla, especially, is known for luring visitors with affluent tastes, and guests will find several chain hotels as well as regionally renowned resorts that have attracted luxury guests for decades.
For variety and a large number of options, hotel and motel guests should concentrate their search in the central Outer Banks towns of Nags Head, Kill Devil Hills and Kitty Hawk. The Outer Banks' most populated communities also feature the largest number hotels in one concentrated area, and visitors will find a wide selection of oceanfront and beachside accommodations to choose from.
The majority of hotels in these towns are, in fact, located right next to the beach, ensuring fantastic ocean views and step-out-the-door beach access. Accommodations range from small mom and pop motels that have been fixtures on the North Carolina beach scene since the 1950s and 1960s, to large, multiple-story hotels that feature private oceanfront balconies, towering over the ocean waves.
Day trippers who spontaneously decide to spend a night should take a drive down the Beach Road, the original road that ran through the three coastal towns, and currently runs parallel to the US 158 Bypass along the oceanfront. Here, they'll spot a dozen motels and hotels, with available vacancies listed on their roadside marquis.
Manteo, located just off the beach, has a hotel culture all its own. Vacationers may not find any national chains in these parts, however, they will find a variety of motels and hotels that have been serving up fantastic vacations for generations Located both along the main route through Manteo, on US 64, or tucked beside the waterfront near the historic downtown, the Manteo accommodations are renowned for their friendly service, fantastic amenities, and proximity to some of the Outer Banks' most loved attractions, including the Elizabethan Gardens, the North Carolina Aquarium, and the Lost Colony outdoor drama.
Hatteras Island is another Outer Banks locale without any national hotel chains or multi-story structures, and seasoned vacationers couldn't be happier about it. On Hatteras Island, vacationers will find small, established motels and hotels that offer exceptional beach access, stunning waterfront views, and friendly staff that have most likely been manning the front desk for decades.
Buxton Village has the largest concentration of hotels and motels, with many offering direct beach access, ocean views, and lots of local hospitality. Water lovers will also adore the village of Hatteras, at the southern end of the island, as the majority of motels and hotels here feature fantastic harbor front or soundfront views. Several small hotels lie adjacent to the marinas that line up against the Pamlico Sound-bordering harbor, so visiting mariners can pull up their boat, drop anchor, and enjoy a restful night's stay in a comfy, soundfront room.
Even further south, Ocracoke Island features a small collection of hotels and motels as well, scattered throughout the small village, and bordered by 13 miles of undeveloped shoreline and maritime forest.
Accommodations on Ocracoke Village can be found right off the main drag of NC Highway 12 as you enter the town, or bordering the harbor front with Ocracoke's favorite restaurants and marinas as neighbors, or even virtually hidden along small, wooded side streets.
Like Hatteras Island, there are no towering hotels or national chains to be found, however, Ocracoke vacationers will still find plenty of variety in the local hotels and motels available. From small, budget friendly motels that have been in business since the 1930s to gorgeous harbor front accommodations with private balconies and hammocks included with every room, the selection on Ocracoke Island is surprisingly wide and varied.
Unlike other regions, however, Ocracoke accommodations tend to fill up very quickly, particularly on long weekends and during the popular summer weeks. Ocracoke lovers are encouraged not to wait until the last minute, but book their accommodations as soon as possible. The reward will be a relaxing stay in a quaint but charismatic hotel or motel, that's near all the amenities, restaurants, and attractions that Ocracoke has to offer. After all, with only 4 square miles of village to explore, virtually every vacation destination on Ocracoke Island is close to all the "action."
What amenities are available with an Outer Banks hotel or motel?
The amenities available for Outer Banks hotel and motel guests are varied and can include the basics, such as a comfy bed and cable TV, or the elite, such as spa services and a world class breakfast in bed. Basically, with the wide selection of accommodations available, an OBX vacation stay can be as simple or as elite as a vacationer desires.
Many of the hotels and motels on the Outer Banks offer private pools to their guests, and / or direct beach access for a quick, refreshing dip in the ocean. Guests should note that with the exception of hotels that feature indoor pools, the majority of pools are only open from late spring until early or mid-fall, when the water temperatures are refreshing and not too chilly. Obviously, vending machines and snack bars are readily available, and the more elite or strategically located hotels and motels, (like in Hatteras Village or Ocracoke), offer on-site or neighboring restaurants as well, making an evening dinner out a breeze.
The majority of hotels and motels on the Outer Banks also offer kitchenettes, with mini-refrigerators and microwaves for quick, no-frills cooking, and some motels that are accustomed to weeklong vacationers may even feature suites with multiple bedrooms and full kitchens, allowing guests to enjoy relaxing and budget-friendly meals at home. These same establishments may feature community or in-room laundry facilities, community lounge areas, or even game rooms for a little fun out of the sun. Be sure and ask your local accommodations provider what amenities are included or available to ensure an easy, stress-free vacation.
Larger and more prestigious hotels may also offer on-site spas and salons, continental or deluxe breakfasts, or ballroom and meeting facilities for corporate events, weddings or receptions. In fact, for large wedding parties of 100 guests or more, a couple's best bet is to look into accommodations and facilities available the local grand hotels. For special events, these locales usually present the largest spaces available for rent, complete with ample room and accommodations for extensive banquet or music set-up. (Not to mention, the majority of these larger hotels also offer easy proximity to the beach, providing a gorgeous oceanfront backdrop for the ceremony itself.)
If your vacationing party has something special in mind, whether it's access to beach toys and water sports gear, or an on-site oceanfront bar for after dinner drinks, the best way to find out if your preferred hotel or motel can cater your needs is to ask. After years of successfully providing fantastic beach vacations, many local hotels and motels are experienced in catering to vacationers, and providing them with exactly the amenities and services they need.
Any tips or tricks for staying at an Outer Banks hotel or motel?
- For a completely stress-free vacation, visitors who are staying in a weekly vacation rental may want to consider enjoying a night before their check-in date, or after their check-out date, at a local Outer Banks hotel or motel. Check-in days for vacation rentals, which most always fall on a Saturday or Sunday, can be notoriously tricky drives in the prime summer weeks, with traffic jams a regular occurrence on both the main US 158 Highway and NC Highway 12. To avoid the gridlock and begin your vacation with a quiet evening on the beach, consider a stay at a local hotel or motel the night before your arrival. This way, it's easy to relax and get into vacation mode well before you check into your vacation home.
A number of hotels and motels offer special packages to lure their guests into enjoying an extended beach stay. These packages can include tickets to locally renowned events, like the annual Taste of the Beach in March or the Bluegrass Festival in October, discounts on spa services, or complimentary amenities such as free breakfasts, premier cable channels, or free Wi-Fi.
Large parties, such as wedding parties, will find even deeper discounts with many hotels happily opening their doors to guests of an Outer Banks destination wedding. Be sure and ask in advance if your hotel or motel of choice has any special promotions or packages available, and don't forget that typical hotel discounts, such as AAA rates, can apply on the Outer Banks as well.
- Need a quick getaway on a budget? Plan an off-season stay. Many hotels and motels may be booked during those sunny June, July and August months, but the Outer Banks' worst kept secret is the allure of the off-season, when traffic has slowed, the majority of local restaurants and shops are still open, (especially in the central Outer Banks towns of Nags Head, Kill Devil Hills and Kitty Hawk), and the weather is still a breezy, sunny paradise.
Rates go down significantly in the off-season, and weekend vacationers will enjoy plenty of privacy and all the attractions the Outer Banks has to offer. Still need your summer fix? Then plan a stay mid-week vacation, from Monday - Thursday. A number of hotels and motels offer slightly lower rates for mid-week stays, even in the prime summer season.
For a quick overnight stay or a weeklong oceanfront retreat, the hotels and motels along the Outer Banks are ideal getaways. Providing exceptional beach access, convenient access to local shops and restaurants, and fantastic inclusive amenities, these establishments have been providing idyllic beach vacations to visiting families for years. Guests who want a friendly, well-loved little motel or an all-inclusive resort will find themselves well represented on the Outer Banks, and will be equally happy to discover that on the beach, friendly hospitality always comes free of charge.
