Cute, convenient apartment in the center of it all

Clean, cute, 1bedroom condo on top of some quaint shops. All the shops close by 5/6 pm so not a lot of foot traffic or noise. Right in the heart of downtown Manteo with beautiful walking trails, close to nags head, pea island and rodanthe. The hosts are thoughtful and had everything for convenience. Will definitely stay here again!

Home Base for a Concert

We really enjoyed our stay. This studio apartment was very clean and comfortable. It was a short walk to the festival park, the Manteo waterfront, shops, and a few restaurants and delis. We were surprised to find some waters and drinks in the frig and a bottle of wine as well. Very appreciated. We will definitely stay here again.
