Island House of Wanchese B&B

We were little bit sceptic about this place due to some negative reviews on websites. However, we were POSITIVELY surprised with the Island House. Not only was the external garden pleasantly organized, but also the internal accommodation is pleasantly decorated. They have a dedicated bathroom in the room. They are tiny, by they are private – big PLUS. The shower in our room was slightly outdated but still clean and private. Additionally, hosts were very nice and polite. Every evening there was cake, or cookies (or both 😊) with coffee or tea – self-service. Breakfasts were tasty, prepared by the hosts. The time we were there, they served hand grown tomato – very nice! We definitely recommend this place, and we will consider it next time coming to the Outer Banks NC.

The garden is lovely. I wish I could say the same for the house. Too many knick-knacks everywhere which made the whole home, and especially our room, seem dusty and not clean. Decor felt like great-grandma's home. On the bright side, the hosts were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious.

We've had a wonderful room, firm mattress and pillows,and very clean. Our breakfast has been fantastic with great selection. The owners are very friendly (just like family) . They are very informative about this area and great suggestions . We will be back !

Stayed two nights, very much like staying at a relative's house. Room was clean and comfortable, house is about a hundred years old, has lots of collections in different rooms - definitely not a standard boring hotel room. House is very quiet off the beaten path, owner was very friendly, and had a large breakfast. Easy to get to nearby attractions. Would definitely stay again.

Best bed and breakfast ever!!! Staff was amazing, helped us with any and everything, and showed us to our rooms. The house is beautiful. Reminds me of a movie. Got a great night sleep and woke up to an amazing breakfast with the freshest fruits, juice, and everything you can think of for breakfast. Thanks so much Bernie!!! you are an awesome host and great cook!!! She helped us with finding local restaurants, and best spots for local seafood! will be back for sure! Would give 10 stars if we could!!!
