Top Elizabeth City Hotel Reviews

The Inn At Corolla Light

The Inn At Corolla Light

10/10 Excellent
"We chose the Inn for the sunset view & were not disappointed. Staff was very friendly & accomodating. Walking distance to everything in the Village &to the beach for excellent sunrise view. Very clean & well kept, however it was October on the Currituck Sound & not unusual to have lots of flying gnats & bugs outside. They were pressure washing the decks & walkways when we left. Will definitely be back."

The Sanderling

8/10 Good
"The Sanderling is a nice resort. It sits on the beach and has a great view of the sun rise in the mornings. The staff is very friendly. They will happily setup chairs and umbrellas on the beach for you. The resort is a bit dated. The fencing around the property is aged. The room was very nice and clean. There are a lot of dead bugs and spiders everywhere. The balcony sliding door has dead bugs in the slider which could use a clean up. We did not use the amenities like the pool, hot tub, or gym. There are two close by restaurants next door and across the street. The drinks at the outdoor bar were a bit outrageous. One virgin pina colada and one margarita was $40 with tip. Overall a nice resort but a bit overpriced in my opinion."
