The room smelled awful, very musty and unable to open a window because they are screwed shut. It was clean but old and worn. Staff was helpful especially when my keycard stopped working . Overall I guess you get what you pay for. I'm just glad it was only one night.

The room was very clean. The gentleman, Thomas R., who checked us in was so very nice. The view was amazing. The breakfast we had the following morning at the Beachside Bistro was the best we’ve had in a long time. Our waiter was superb. Loved the decor! Our daughter,son-in-law and grandson loved the heated pool. We will definitely stay here again!

First of all I want to say that the night desk clerk was friendly, helpful and kind. Very good staffer. I didn't have the opportunity to meet anyone else. The balcony door wouldn't lock. Large stain on the carpet in front of one of the beds.Tub needs updating.Could use better pillows. The pool looked nice, kids were enjoying it. The view was excellent.

Upon arrival, Thomas was on task and knowledgeable. Check in was easy. He told me about the specials in the bistro attached to the hotel. I didn't know they had a restaurant. My breakfast was in the bistro. Thomas B was my waiter and did an outstanding job getting me served quickly. The food was great. I highly recommend the Sea Ranch Resort to anyone visiting the Outer Banks!
