We enjoyed our stay, shops and restaurants were within walking distance. We were able to bring our dog. They have a nice grassy area on the side of the hotel where your dog can do their business along with poop bags available to use. We were on the 4th floor balcony which had an awesome view of the marina and the Ocracoke lighthouse in the distance.
