Saltaire Cottages

Kitty Hawk

10/10 Excellent

Saltaire Cottages was a great place to stay for a few days. It was cleaned and had what we needed for those few days. When you drive up it seems to be a little outdated. The inside of our cottage had been redone and it was fine. The location is great, right across the street with their own beach access. The beaches were not so crowded on any day that you felt like you were right on top of each other.

Shannon

A spacious living room with a large window, a sofa, a wooden coffee table, and a chair.

Stayed her for 6 days and absolutely loved it. When we arrived I was overwhelmed with how clean and good everything looked around the hotel and inside the room. The area outside with the tiki bar is amazing and the food in the hotel is to die for. The breakfast they served everymorning is all you can eat for around 10$ a person. The over easy eggs I had everymorning were perfectly cooked All the drinks were amazing as well. 10/10 would stay again !!
