We have been looking for a a place on the ocean close by our Virginia Beach apartment where we could escape for that occasional short trip and this is the place! Absolutely spectacular.

When I found this Resort on the best of the outer banks map, I was not sure what the experience was going to be like. I was extremely surprised at the friendliness of the staff and welcoming interior. The rate was unbeatable and I was right on the beach. Very clean and they have a restaurant right inside the resort.... More

I've stayed at a lot of hotels, and in comparison, this one faired just average for the price. Just a normal room with a king bed, tv, sofa and table. Staff was friendly and helpful, and breakfast down the street was yummy. We visited during what looked to be a large renovation but it didn't disturb our stay. I dont... More

We planned a last minute trip to the outer banks and called all the hotels with indoor pools, and the Sea Ranch had the best price for the best room. We got a suite with 2 bedrooms ( king bed and 2 twins), 2 full bathrooms, ocean view with a long sunroom, full kitchen, and laundry room. We couldn't believe... More

My wife and I recently travelled to North Carolina with friends for week of beach side living and golf. We booked our vacation through OBX Golf and were rewarded with accommodation in a two bedroom condo at the Sea Ranch resort. Each couple had their own two bedroom unit which meant we had tons of space, although we could have... More

My wife and I decided to stay at Sea Ranch for a second time, but wanted to get an ocean front room. What we got was a suite that was better than we expected. The suite had a master bedroom, a second room with two twin beds, a living/dining room with a kitchen, and the best part, a enclosed three-season... More

Got a great deal on this hotel in the Outer Banks. Kinda wish we would have spent a little more to stay somewhere a bit nicer. The place was deserted, only saw one other guest the 4 days we were there (albeit it was the off season). The rooms are musty and dingy. They're clean, but the comforters look like... More

The interior of the rooms will be well appointed with the latest finishes, new furnishings and modern décor. This includes the oceanfront rooms, oceanside rooms in the lodge and the 2 bdrm/2bath fully equipped oceanfront suites. A fitness center... More

First off the Sea Ranch does need some work, but they are in the process of doing this. A friend and I stayed this past December while on a hunting trip. The room was spacous for two people, and the beds seemed to sleep just fine. Checking in was a breeze, and so was checking out. The shower worked great,... More

The sea ranch is located on some beautiful beach front property. Meanwhile, my room was falling apart. The toliet was unstable. The shower was poor with exposed pipes and holes in the walls. The coffee maker did not work. On the up side, people were friendly and the bed was good. We paid $40/night which should be the most anyone... More

We stayed at the Sea Ranch at the tail end of Hurricane Irene, and in a sense were lucky to find a room, as there didn't seem to be much availability in the Outerbanks. We only stayed for one night, as we just needed somewhere to crash before we were allowed to travel north thru Duck to get to our... More
