A solid 4/5. Though the hotel is 20 years old, the lobby and rooms have clearly been refreshed…read morerecently. It's very pretty and well decorated. The staff were professional and pleasant. Great location too! A couple things worth mentioning though. Our room was very damp. And not just a little humid (we lived in FL for 15 years so we understand humidity), but like our clothes felt wet when we put them on and paper gift bags were soft. We actually turned off the air and opened the slider to air the room out a couple times. If I had to take a stab in the dark, there's likely a serious mold issue behind the walls. There was mold growing on the AC unit. Another thing about the area in general (not just the hotel)...flies. Be prepared to have them tag along with you EVERYWHERE. They were in every restaurant we went to, by the pool, at the beach, in the gym, in every store. It was the most bizarre thing. Just everywhere. Also, I didn't realize how dog friendly this hotel was. We have two dogs and love them, but our room clearly had a dog in it previously with signs of hair on the AC unit and in the carpet. I wish we'd have brought our own pillows as the ones in our room were down pillows and even with 2 of them, they still fall flat. Overall, the location, price, service, and amenities were totally fine but those things like the room being super damp, the flies, and pet hair were just little nuisances that I think people should be aware of.

Overall, we had a good stay, but there were a few things that could be improved…read more The hotel looks a little outdated, but the highlight was definitely the view of the beach from the outdoor pool. It was beautiful and very relaxing. Both the indoor and outdoor pools were warm, which we really enjoyed. The only downside was that there were hardly any towels available at the outdoor pool. We booked the last available room for the day and were pleasantly surprised with complimentary breakfast vouchers. Unfortunately, after using the vouchers, I checked my account the next day and noticed I had still been charged for breakfast, which was disappointing. The room itself was comfortable. The pillows were soft, the blankets were warm, and we slept well. However, there was one large bug flying around the room, and I have no idea where it came from, which was definitely unpleasant. Overall, we enjoyed our stay because of the pools, beach view, and comfortable room, but a few issues--especially the breakfast charge and the bug in the room--kept it from being a perfect experience.

The Inn itself is very clean and has a lot of interesting history that Lee (the manager) will happily share with you. The rooms are well kept and super clean with plenty of amenities available. The continental breakfast is thoughtfully provided with fresh fruit salad and an array of cereal, bread and other options. They also have plenty of coffee and a tea station that I particularly loved with an array of options and even teapots on hand. The grounds are beautiful with plenty of blooming flowers and green space to enjoy yourself and hang out. We particularly liked the very friendly koi in the koi pond which came over to say hi when we approached.

We booked 3 months ago.............For May 3rd thru 10th. Weather has been great 1. Outdoor pool being renovated..............As in you cannot use, workers are rude and It is a big deal when you have small children and after a morning at the beach, they want to be at the pool. NO NOTICE WAS GIVEN AT ANY TIME DURING OUR BOOKING OR AFTER TO SAY " OH BY THE WAY THE OUTDOOR POOL IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION AND HAS BEEN FOR 4 MONTHS AND ONE OF OUR BIGGEST AMENITIES THAT IS NOT AVAILABLE. I inquired with girl at front desk upon arrival. " Sorry I cannot do anything about that now" And Barrier Island wonders why they have 2.5 star reviews!!!! 2. NON-EXISTENCE WIFI SERVICE: ONE OF OUR OTHER BIGGEST AMENITIES IS NOT WORKING EITHER.................. I have called repeatedly and ask for someone to look at our unit or bring an wifi enhancer/extender. NO RESPONSE FROM FRONT DESK, I have left messages every day. Guess they are BUSY, fielding other complaints, I am sure! 3. If you are going to have advertise a partial Kitchen. Have the basics, wine opener, cutting board and colander and a updated skillet where the cord is not loose and connection is iffY!! ( somebody say Fire Hazzard!!) I may skip this location moving forward!!!

I actually appreciated this place so much that this is my first yelp review. Staff was extra friendly and accommodating. Breakfast and coffee bar were great though I'm not a picky eater. If you don't like it, there are close breakfast options nearby. I loved the complimentary cheese and wine as well as the chocolate cookies! Outdoor pool was nice, I didn't see the indoor pool since it was in the other building. Housekeeping did a great job with our room as well. My only criticisms would be that some things in our room need some TLC like the sliding door to the balcony would occasionally get stuck and the fridge/freezer was stuck on the highest setting which froze everything we put in there lol. But if you're letting these minor inconveniences ruin your time at the beach then you need to lighten up a bit. A wonderful spot to stay while on vacation

The oceanfront location and easy beach access are fantastic, and the outdoor pool area is amazing with plenty of comfortable seating. They also have an indoor pool, hot tub, and a great hot breakfast. But the true standout of our experience was Kira, one of the supervisors. Her kindness and hospitality were absolutely unmatched. She went above and beyond to make my son and me feel welcomed and cared for, and her genuine warmth made our experience so much more special. Kira is truly an asset to Shutters! Samantha at the front desk was also incredibly kind and helpful. We were so impressed by the beautiful property and, most of all, the people who made us feel so welcome. We will definitely be back and highly recommend Shutters to anyone visiting the Outer Banks!

We had a ground floor room with two queen beds. There was a "back" door leading to a small sitting area looking at the dunes. We could hear the water from there. We did go up the stairs to see the water view, but it was way too cold to sit outside. There is also an indoor pool and jacuzzi. We didn't use it but it was good to know it was there. My only complaint was the shower. It was very difficult to route the water from the faucet up to the showerhead and the water was only lukewarm. If we had stayed longer, we would have asked for a different room because of that. We could tell the hotel has been updated within the last few years. It wasn't faded decor, but had a clean, classy vibe. Not a high-end resort hotel, but certainly worth the price and it's conveniently located.

The pool was calming and had a beautiful view but the water was cold, we did get to use the corolla light amenities when we were at the inn. I think this place is a place to explore corolla and not just be in your room. Overall it was a good time, everywhere was pretty close. Best for 2 to 3 people and good for couple.
