The staff in the office once you arrive are so patient and welcoming, so checking in was so easy !!! If you have any issues in your suite or questions about locks, they will gladly come over and assist you. The excellent cleanliness of all the suite and the attention to detail to making your stay comfortable is outstanding !!!

Anyone on here giving this hotel less than 4 stars have unrealistic standards. "The bathrooms are…read moretoo small and don't have a fan", brother you're at the beach!! I loved my stay here. 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

As in picture. Not the quality we got last time. Pastries were held over each day for the next day. By day 3 ? The big thing was you couldn't get coffee until the office was unlocked at 8am. We are early risers and like coffee in am. The other thing was the toilet in our bathroom , room 3 was very low and hard for older people to use. The room was not as clean as I remember in the past. Would I stay again ? I don't know. Were before I would have said definitely.

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.

The breakfast buffet was OK not well stocked missing a lot of items and there was litter on the property with cigarette butts and that was reported and never cleaned up there were bins of trash in the lobby that were there for hours on end and never should be in the public view. There were children of staff helping out throughout the hotel during the evenings sweeping and folding towels. The air conditioning was broke in the main lobby, where the breakfast buffet was the room temperature thermostat was on the fritz and the unit rattle loud the cleaning service was absolutely horrible. The refrigerator was leaking and we had to retrieve our own towels daily because the staff didn't replace what they took out of room, we have stayed here 4 yrs in a row and this was the worst I've seen it.

I knew check in was at 4 pm, but i was hoping it would be ready since you get lucky at times. We checked in and our room was indeed ready. That made me happy. The motel is situated very close to the beach which was a win for us. Our room was ocean side... about 15 steps to the beach. It was very convenient. I loved being able to walk back and forth to the beach from our room for snacks, drinks, etc (the ice machine is right next to the beach too). The room was very clean, spacious, and cozy. The housekeeping was consistent in bringing us what we needed. We were always in the room when they arrived, so we opted for fresh towels and toilet paper. The pool is across the street and was a nice size. The pool was clean and the water was nice. We were close to everything we needed. You have a market, 7-11, tacobell/kfc, a few restaurants within walking distance. Customer service is great...the reception guy let us park there on our last day to enjoy the beach and pool after we checked out. Everyone who works on the grounds is very friendly and accommodating. Motel is clean, and spacious with ample parking. I recommend this place to anyone, and I am definitely coming back here again!

The oceanfront location and easy beach access are fantastic, and the outdoor pool area is amazing with plenty of comfortable seating.

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.
