This is a bad room if you want sleep. Both nights we stayed we had people sitting below our window hanging out and talking until midnight. We had to turn on the AC unit to drown out the noise. This is enough so that we won't stay here again. The hotel itself is fine and the beach access nice. Restaurant is good and they have some good staff there. There are also two good restaurants right across the street where you can avoid having to drive for a couple days. My advice to the hotel is to out the chairs away in the courtyard after 10 pm so you don't have parties forming in area that allows trapping conversations and keeping people awake. Your windows are not sound proof.

The house is like going to an aunt and uncles house, we just felt very cozy and comfortable. The pictures are exactly how the house is. It's convenient to so many different places, and a very short drive to beaches. There is a reason this place is rated with 5 stars on every travel site.

Shampoo, conditioner, soaps and beauty pack filled with toothbrushes, q tips , dental pics. The views are fantastic. We watched dolphins and otters while eating breakfast. The breakfast is a work of art. Fruit cups, yogurt eggs with ham and cheese. Freshly made crepes with bananas and homemade Carmel sauce. There is a microwave and dishes, silverware and cooler with sodas and water upstairs with couches and games. Fresh baked cookies outside your room in the evening. There is fishing and crabbing on site. If you don't have the equipment they Wii loan you what you need. There is also a pool, several swings and chairs outside. Everything is so tastefully done and welcoming. There is also a small elevator to get suitcases and people upstairs.

There are absolutely things about this TownPlace Suites that I would like to see changed or that I…read moredidn't like, however I'm still giving 5 stars because of the location and the setup they have here and because I personally would go back without a second thought. First, some of the issues I have: The room layout puts one bed very close to the air conditioner and because they have the old-fashioned hotel style AC units, that leaves at least one person getting directly blasted with cold air all night. Using pool towel clips to put a towel over one side of the vent did help but reduced the efficacy of the AC and made the room warmer for everyone else. Breakfast is nice (and free) but the setup of it seems to be done as if this is a business hotel and not a beach front hotel. The cereal choices were all boring adult cereals, the bread for toast was VERY whole grain (as in it had pieces of grains in it), and the only milk they had was white milk (for example). Adding a small amount of more kid-friendly breakfast elements would go a long way. The outdoor pool is sheltered from the wind by the sand bank and gets really hot in the sun, a lightweight shade over the whole (or part of) the deck would probably be a welcomed addition by most people. As for what's great about this place: The location includes a beachfront pool + small snack shack with beach access which is directly across the road from the hotel itself. This gives the best of both worlds with beachfront access as well as having better parking and more room on the hotel property. On non-weekends the price is super affordable for a beachfront Marriott property. Not to mention the only Marriott property on the Outer Banks. It's very close to great food options, many walkable. Stuff for both adults and kids is easy to access. It's also not far to many interesting sightseeing or cultural things to see. All-in-all, I would love to see some minor changes but even with some flaws this is definitely a 5 star option.

Do not stay at this hotel…read more I've stayed in many Marriott properties over the years, but I wish I could give minus five stars to TownePlace Suites OBX. Infrastructure The website photos are completely deceptive. The hotel is not well maintained, despite being built in 2017. There are leaks throughout the property, and visible pockets of mold. The "Blue House" across the street (the beach access point) feels like an afterthought. There was only one deck chair, and it was broken. The handrail leading to the deck was also broken. Hygiene Poor. The interior is not properly cleaned, and both elevators were consistently dirty. Outside, there were empty bottles and trash bags scattered around the parking lot. Beach access Disappointing. If you're expecting easy, relaxing beach access based on the website photos, you'll be let down. You have to cross a street where pedestrians don't have the right of way, pass the poorly maintained deck, and then use stairs to reach the beach. Not worth the hassle. Breakfast Very poor. It's grab-and-go, extremely limited, and tasteless. Skip it and eat elsewhere. Service Unhelpful. We prepaid for a three-night stay but decided to leave after two nights due to the issues above. The front desk did not offer any flexibility or even a credit toward another Marriott property--we simply lost a night. Save yourself the headache. Stay elsewhere--areas like Duck or Corolla offer a much better experience. I'd also avoid Kill Devil Hills altogether; it's not walkable and doesn't offer a pleasant stay.

Of course the ice machine is out of order. I was awakened to construction men right outside my balcony repairing the patio of the restaurant. There are signs directing you to the elevator and then you get there it says staff only. The best part was the bistro, but even then the construction men were right on the other side of the wall from my table tearing apart the outside wall. I paid nearly double for a room "on a higher level" and got the second floor out of five. Just another typical tourist trap.

Plus there's a dining area and living room. Nice full balcony outback with a great view of the ocean. Wonderful breeze out the front but none of the windows worked to let the air in from the front. Only one of the elevators work. Some of the lights don't work. The living room TV has gone bad and often displays the programming as a negative image or mostly green in color. Side of the refrigerator has good amount of rust. The icemaker didn't work. The showers had decent water pressure and they have nice soap products. The food at the restaurant was good. The crabcake was good portion and tasty and the vegetable medley had excellent flavor. I was overcharged when I arrived for what my confirmation said. Hopefully that has been straightened out with my bill when I check out. There was an issue with the elevator the one morning as the employee said it wasn't working. This other lady who looked like a manager, was asking other guests about the elevator. When I told her that is your employee with the supply cart and he's been standing at the elevator and it's not working. She's responded to me saying "I don't know him. I don't know what's going on. I don't know about another elevator. I'm new here. This is my first day." Really? You start your first day on Easter Sunday and you had no training? There is another elevator, but apparently that's been out of order for many months. Thankfully, the employee with the supply cart was able to get the elevator back working quickly Lots of available parking in the open lot We consider staying again, but likely will try another place

We booked this hotel because my husband is a veteran and we got a good deal, however there were…read moreplenty of things advertised that were very false. No continental breakfast, which was advertised there was then you got redirected to its now $7 for guests who stay here and then we tried to eat there and they wanted to charge you $10 for adults and $5 for kids no matter the age. For the price you pay, breakfast being included should be a must. The Tiki Hut had wonderful food however the waitress we had was rude and the owner made a big deal over google saying they give military discount, he did honor it but he copped and attitude saying "i'd love to see where it says we offer that". The pool house is disgustingly hot, the pool is filled with sand (which is understandable since we're by the beach) but the last day we stayed there was literal seaweed floating in the water. The hotel has an odor when you walk in & there's only 1 washer and dryer unfortunately. Our room was okay other than the fact the bathroom is a slight upgrade from an airplane bathroom and there is mold growing on the curtains above the air conditioner. Plus sides to this hotel is there is beach access and feet washes on the walk way to the beach, the cleaning people change your sheets daily and clean your shower & floors so the sand isn't so bad. The beds aren't comfortable, they also squeak but they're doable when you're exhausted. Overall experience for us is a 5.5/10, as for my family we will not return to this hotel. Save your money on this overpriced hotel and book an airbnb.

When I asked them about it they said that the hotel doesn't assign room with ocean views to travel club members. They then changed an additional $200.00 a night for the ocean view. The listed difference on their website is an average of about $70.00 a night. The desk said it's company policy! Also, the door to the first room wouldn't shut unless you pulled very hard from the hallway. Doesn't help when in the room and the faucet in the ocean view room drips. They did nothing about either problem! Hotel is old and the rooms are outdated. The view was nice!

It's an old hotel that a bandage has been put on it. The people above us, you could every step they took. The people beside us, you could hear everything they said. The pool was dirty. Walking to the beach, you could see there is obviously a boardwalk, but it would have been nice if they maintained it and kept the sand off it. Some rooms were smoking rooms which is fine, but put them all together and not have them spaced out so much. All you could smell was smoke. The parking lot is small. The grill.......it was an old chimney they turned into a grill. Didn't look like it had been cleaned in years. Not sure what else I can say about this, but we will NOT be staying here again.

I've stayed in both types of rooms here and they're all about the same. No, there is no longer a continental breakfast served in the lobby area but there are so many restaurants nearby and there is a microwave & mini fridge in every room. Yes, housekeeping is the bare minimum here but every business in the service industry has changed (most for the worse) since the pandemic. Do you really need someone to make or turn down your bed for you daily while you're on vacation?!? Do you really need fresh towels every single day? I've been coming to this same hotel for years and truly the only difference I see now compared to the past is the long term residents. I did not have any issues with them and I was given a room in that designated section.
