I’ve been to a lot of beach properties and almost every hotel on Ocracoke and the Harbor Inn is simply the best in every aspect. From the staff, the amenities, the property and the room itself - it’s just perfect

Great location across the street from the harbor. Within easy walking distance to many shops and restaurants. They have golf carts and bikes for rent if you want to cover more of the village. Our room was clean and the front desk and room service was excellent. Can’t wait to come back some day!

We absolutely loved our stay. The cottage was gorgeous and much bigger than we expected and so well-appointed. They even went above and beyond by letting us check out later when our ferry was cancelled. We can't wait to come back!
