First, we got there late, and when we used the keys they left us for our room...I opened the door and people were in there sleeping! We could have been shot! I can only imagine the horror of the sleeping guests to be awakened by strangers entering their room in the middle of the night. When we got to our... More

It sounds like your stay took place right before our group purchased the Inn. After acquiring the Inn we made some much-needed improvements and a lot of cleaning! Over the winter months we have been executing a complete refurbishing of the Inn. We are applying fresh paint, all new furnishings including carpets and furniture and featuring an all new décor....

I stayed at the Inn on November 12th with my two children. It was our first visit and we had a very enjoyable stay. I was moved to write a review because my experience was so different from the other people who have written recently. Check in was a little slow because the person manning the desk was off helping...

Thanks so much for your review! You will be happy to know that over the winter, we are doing a complete makeover of the Inn. This year we will have new furnishings in the rooms and new paint with lots of upgrades. We are also planning improvements for the breakfast service for the coming season. Please come see us again!

I was very disappointed this time around, there is new management. It took forever to check us in, I had waited in the car rather than go back and forth in the rain, I finally had to go in and help my husband after he came out twice asking me questions and was obviously having problems with the management. They... More

We apologize for your stay not being what you expected. We agree that was not a good way to start things off and yes, things should have been handled better. During the management changeover a number of reservations were mysteriously “disappeared” and we had no way of knowing who had paid in advance. We are so sorry that negatively impacted... More

We stayed at the Inn 9/8/11 for 4 LONG days. The room was so old- using old bedspreads, wool like blanket ( that I doubt was washed recently), spiders thruout, disappointing breakfast. he management is not on site 24 hours- so if you had any probnlems - no one is there. It says leave the key in a box!! We... More

We regret to hear of your bad experience, but we are not surprised. Effective September 15 the Inn at Corolla Light is under new management and new ownership. The new General Manager is Richard Murphy. We are doing a lot of cleaning and are making improvements. As the new owners we invite you to visit us again soon. More

Musty Rooms, cats galore, and the rudest obx people we've met We're veterans of two stays at the INN. We've tried an economy room up on the 3rd floor and it was damp and quite musty. We've tried a ground floor room and yes, it too was damp feeling and musty in July. The only way to miss the musty... More

My husband and I have visited the Inn once or twice a year for more than a decade, but our last visit marks the end of what had become a fond tradition. Not only is the Inn going downhill in terms of cleanliness, a lack of amenities and the overall decline in the quality of the accommodations, but the management... More

We loved our stay! It was not "The Hilton" as another reviewer said, but it was very quite and peaceful. The lady who runs the place was very nice. Our room facing the sound had an amazing view and a great deck area that was perfect for relaxing. We almost missed the pool....it is tucked away, complete with hot tub... More

The Inn at Corolla Light is a charming destination on the Outer Banks that is more like a homey B&B; relaxing, laid back and very enjoyable. The staff and the manager,Pamela were so accomodating and hospitable. We were given our choice of upgraded rooms when we arrived because the availability of the room that I had originally booked online was... More

This was our 4th straight Summer Vacation spent at the Inn at Corolla Light. To us, it is the "most peaceful place on earth." Each room is unique with a character of its own. It's not "cookie-cutter Hilton." We love it! The staff is wonderful, very responsive to any need. I don't see us staying anywhere else! More

Having previously stayed at the Corolla Inn on several occassions, my wife and I had no reservations about staying there for a few nights in June. However, upon check-in it became apparent that something had changed and not for the better. 1) The office smelled heavily of cigarettes coated with air freshner. 2) Paint could be seen peeling from a...
