    Water feature in their flower garden

    The hosts were delightful and Tonia was an incredible chef. The rooms were recently renovated and ours had a wonderful jacuzzi tub and extremely comfortable bed. Complimentary Happy hour every day at 4pm with some new delectable treat prepared by Tonia and wine. Fresh home made ice cream sandwiches and cookies available throughout the day and each morning a fresh, tasty and creative two course served breakfast. Third time for us at the Inn and will absolutely return.

    Gracious Inn Keepers, charming house, delicious breakfast . Our room was beautiful and comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful. This is a special place to unwind and relax. The Inn is close to downtown Manteo and there are several wonderful shops and restaurants. It's a beautiful place to stroll and be near the water. The breakfasts were scrumptious and filling. We are looking forward to returning.

    The White Doe Inn far exceeded my expectations in every way. The 1910 house, which is on the National Register of Historic Houses, has been lovingly restored and beautifully decorated. We were warmly welcomed and before being taken to our room, we were given a tour where we told when breakfast would be served, informed of the afternoon happy hour and where the treats for each room are left each afternoon. Let me say, these are not to be missed! We were also shown the guest refrigerator where waters and homemade ice cream sandwiches reside. We loved the Turret Room with its sunny, calming decor and balcony. The bed was very comfortable and every convenience we needed was provided. Our room featured a fireplace with gas logs which would add to the romantic atmosphere had it been cool weather. There are two rooms that are pet-friendly. The breakfast was a real treat. Each morning we enjoyed a four course Southern breakfast in the beautiful garden. Our breakfasts included fresh fruit, grits, Garvy biscuits, omelette, French toast, pancakes were all delicious. The perfect way to start your day. The location is terrific. Located just a few short blocks from Historic Downtown's restaurants and shops, it is an easy walk to shop and imbibe. If you prefer, bicycles and helmets are available for your use. Access to the rest of the Outer Banks is only two blocks away. We were able to reach Corolla to the north in just over an hour and Hatteras to the south in an hour. You can't find a better location to explore most of the Outer Banks. The White Doe Inn has beautiful lawn and gardens. Relax with a glass of wine on the shaded patio, in a rocking chair on the large porch, or around the fire pit. Definitely enjoy the finely curated landscaping. The White Doe Inn provided us with one of the truly nicest getaways we have experienced. It is the perfect location for couples. They do allow "Well behaved children over 12", but this is a place for couples.

    Ants!

    Welcoming staff & very cute B&B. We arrived during a torrential downpour, and it was cool sitting underneath the porch listening & watching the storm. The owner gave us a great recommendation for dinner - The Blue Water - food is amazing! Breakfast was delicious & the young man and young lady who served us were both polite & efficient. A recommendation that I have is to have all the guests around one table instead of small 2-party tables. From other B&B experiences, this was always a fun time getting to know other people. My only complaint, and in my eyes, a huge one, was that our room was infested with ants, which I discovered in the morning. In addition to the ants being in the window seat cushion, they were also at the foot of our bed, and some managed to get into my clothing. I made the situation known to the young lady in the kitchen as well as showing her. When we left, I texted the management, and received the following response: "thank you so much for letting us know. We've been battling the ants with all this rain. We'll get it taken care of." Having paid a decent price for our room, it would have been nice to minimally received an apology.

    We recently returned from our five day getaway to The White Doe Inn! Wow, just wow, it was more than we had hoped! Just a lovely and serene Inn. A beautifully and meticulously renovated historical property, preserving its history while implementing modern amenities! The owners Dave and Tonia elevated our stay to perfection! They are personable and comfortable to be around. They truly want you to have the best experience and you can feel the love they have for their Inn and their guests. We enjoyed daily gourmet breakfast prepared by chef Tonia, each day was more delicious and each course was creatively presented! There was a lovely server for 2 of our days, I didn't get her name but she had dark hair and was so sweet, we chatted about our pets and Tonia's freshly made dishes, she's a gem to the Inn! After exploring the charming areas for the day, we returned to the Inn for the daily social hour, (it's actually 2 hours!) Select wines and both savory and sweet house made snacks were provided! It was great to sit and play cards, games, read a book, or socialize with other guests as well as Dave and Tonia, who share their amazing stories of how they came to own the Inn! Truly a relaxing and exceptional stay, we will definitely return!

    Garden room

    Wow - am I glad I picked this B&B to stay at on our much needed vacation! What a wonderful location & setting! Location: On Roanoke Island - the perfect place to stay as it's away from the touristy area of OBX & very close to the charming center of town in Manteo! Parking is on the side-street. B&B Experience: The Garden room was amazing with our own entrance, sitting area, & spacious bathroom with a whirlpool bathtub for 2! The breakfast was so good & prepared carefully in to go containers due to COVID-19. I loved the ice cream sandwiches - a little too much ;)! The complimentary glass of wine & snacks in the afternoon were fabulous & we made friends with people we met at the B&B. Disposable masks & sanitizer were abundant & the place was very clean! Ensure to bring bug spray as there are a LOT of bugs outside! Plenty of places outside to sit & enjoy the tranquility. Hospitality: Wonderful! The chef would come out & describe the breakfast. Pam was very hospitable & great at making local recommendations! Chip was seen throughout watering plants, chatting with us, etc. Great place to stay - I highly recommend it! Try to get the Garden room!

    Breakfast Day 5

    This was a quaint B&B in an old historic house in Manteo, NC. It was our first experience at a B & B. It was clean and nicely decorated inside. My husband and I reserved the East Lake room and it didn't disappoint. We had a shared balcony, claw foot tub in our spacious bathroom, and a fireplace next to the bed. The B&B also had complimentary wine, beer, bottled sodas, bottled water, tea, coffee, and snacks for the guests to access to most of the day. The house was just over the bridge from Kill Devil Hills, NC and main areas of OBX and it was just a 5 minute walk to downtown Manteo and the pier. COVID-19 safety protocols were applied and followed: they put plenty of hand sanitizer and mask stations in necessary areas of the main level and in the guest rooms. The staff also follows COVID 19 safety protocols by providing all breakfast and afternoon snacks in plastic containers so you can eat in your room or in their indoor and outdoor areas. Now to the extra good stuff. What really made our stay even more comfortable and awesome was Pam!! From check-in to check-out, Pam always made us feel welcomed and took really care of us. It was fun talking to her and she would leave us extra treats just because. Pam made these delicious ice cream cookie sandwiches (chocolate chip and Reese's) and it was soooo good. She was so personable and attentive that my husband and I convinced each other that we should come back to White Doe Inn this Thanksgiving or something. Pam's dog was also popular with the guests. He was so adorable. Lee was the chef and he made some very delicious breakfast! Luckily, we stayed there a week so we got to eat it almost everyday. He was the nicest chef ever. Lee would bring the food to us, when we chose to eat outside in the cold (don't judge, their outdoor patio was really pretty), and he would explain what each food item was. Please see attached pictures of some of the breakfast.

    My husband booked here for our one year anniversary, and we both love it. Very friendly staff, who immediately showed us around. We love they give you snacks, treats, drinks, s'mores packs, popcorn, even a glass of wine at your leisure. Very cozy feeling, and close to places to walk around. We either walked or biked to restaurants or to just get out. We also loved the 4 course breakfast, very good. There is also a beautiful backyard which features two fire pits. You feel very taken care of which is so nice. Overall, we would stay here again! p.s highly recommend coming in the off season -- lot less crowded in town, it's wonderful.

    Gourmet Breakfast prior to checkout
    Earl S.

    This is a beautiful place and the attendant and owner, Pam, was so accommodating to me for a late check-in. I was traveling on vacation and to arrive to such a tremendously beautiful place after traveling the outer banks at night during a thunderstorm made the trip so worth it. The rooms are immaculate and they pay very close attention to detail in terms of even the little things. I was surprised to have a fresh sprig of lavender and a delicious piece of pound cake in my room when I arrived. Parking is free on a side street This place is Southern hospitality realized. The breakfast was all gourmet prepared by their kind and welcoming Chef, and Pam even came out to chat with me and get to know me before I checked out during breakfast. She was and is so sweet. Why stay anywhere else in Manteo? I love this place. It was love at first sight, and whenever I return for a visit with family or while traveling alone I will definitely stay here. Bravo, and thank you for everything.

    The Garden Room! So far, perfect!
    Lorrie L.

    My Hubby took me here for my birthday and a little vacation. We spent four nights in the Garden Suite. This was a great room. There is a huge comfortable bed, sitting area, and a large bathroom. The whirlpool tub was awesome. Big tall shower with all the shampoo, conditioner, and body wash you need for your entire stay. Our room has a private entrance and outside the door is a little sitting area with a Koi pond. Very relaxing place. It is on the first floor. The service is exceptional! The four course breakfast was a special treat every day. Convenient to everything. Anyone will give you a recommendation. Manteo is defiantly the place to stay. Remember this is an older home that you are sharing with other people. There are little imperfections (It's on the Historical Register). You can hear the other guests the same as you can in your own home. None of this was a negative for us. We actually spent more time in our room here than we have any other place we have ever stayed.

    The White Doe Inn never fails. This is our second time staying at this hidden jewel in Manteo. We stayed in the tower suite and loved clawfoot tub, quaint sitting area, and overall coziness of the room. Pam was a delightful host! Her warm welcoming conversations, great sense of humor, and delicious breakfasts made our stay one we will never forget! Our stay wouldn't have been the same without Pam. We will definitely be back!

    My husband and I stayed at The White Doe Inn for New Year's Eve and enjoyed it so much that we want to make it a tradition! We stayed in Manteo for the fireworks last year, but this was a completely different experience. Pam is a charismatic host and the chef Lee was fantastic, as was the menu...did I mention homemade ice cream sandwiches and fancy coffee whenever you want! Enough said. The whole inn is cozy and comfortable and we loved our room with the fireplace. We felt welcome and the staff made sure it was a safe getaway. 5 stars for cleanliness and following covid-19 protocols and some. We can't wait to go back for more memories! Next time we'll bring our dog to meet Peanut too. Love that there is a dog friendly room. You have to go! Such a neat OBX experience
