If its an Ocean View you're looking for, this is the Place! Absolutely gorgeous view of the water...and CLOSE!!! Rooms were comfortable, clean, and somewhat spacious. Really had everything you need for a nice comfortable stay. The only downside was a slight smell of natural gas on the 5th floor balcony and often while sitting on the beach you could... More

Our first family trip to Outer Banks was awesome! We have two kids and I would definitely recommend staying at Sea Ranch. In calling to get information the front staff was extremely helpful. They even gave me tips on the area for kids and (Toni?) even offered to take a picture of the back of the building and email it... More

We stay here every time we visit the beach and always enjoy the rooms, especially the oceanfront! The balcony has a lovely view of the ocean, and the west side entrance gives a great view of the Wright Brothers Memorial, especially from the 4th and 5th floor. All of the staff are very friendly and always accommodating, and the beachside... More

We stayed at the Sea Ranch Resort May 24-May 26 (Memorial Day weekend). We have stayed on the Outer Banks for years and were pleasantly surprised. There were 6 of us and we had the 2 bedroom condo. It was perfect for us, clean and what a view! The ocean was RIGHT there. We ate breakfast at the hotel also,... More

There are just a handful of hotels on the OBX that can offer rooms right on the beach......and I mean less than 150 feet from the soothing sound of constant breakers on the shore. We were able to keep the door off the balcony open at night, catching the cool breezes and sounds of the ocean. Nothing fancy.....staff was extremely... More

If you look at older reviews for this place, you probably won't stay. However, my wife and I had a wonderful stay. The rooms were neat and clean, the staff was very friendly and helpful and the view from our room was exquisite. I gave the value for the money an average just because this is a resort area and...
