Our room with the ocean view was excellent.

I didn't like that we asked the front desk guy to send us up some more towels and wash clothes. He never did, we had to ask housekeeping for them ourselves. The trashcans on our floor in the hallway, weren't dumped daily. The hot tub water was disgusting. When we first checked in Saturday, and went to the pool. The type of low class/no class trailer trash that was in the pool and hot tub, it didn't surprise me the water had to be changed. That was some of the nastiest, murky water I've ever seen in a hot tub. It looked like some one had been washing farm animals in it.

The location was perfect and the view from our ocean front room was truly amazing. We also really appreciated the choice to check in earlier and check out later with a decent additional price.

I know the pool states no life guard on duty but I do recommend having someone from the staff checking in frequently, only because multiple young children were left without chaperones and were playing very rough and ran into my 5 year old. Also there were no towels available at the pool anytime we went in the 2 days we stayed. The restaurant also had very poor staff and food was awful.

We have stayed here many times and it is very obvious that they are implanting money into the hotel to modernize and upgrade. The new pool renovations are great and the newer deck and beach access are nice as well.

The only critique that I had was parking, or lack of. Our last night there a tour bus arrived which was allowed for some reason to park sideways in the parking lot and completely covered 8 parking spaces. There was a sky-jack lift on the other end that was left parked there and took up an additional 6 parking spaces. If there is an overflow parking lot, it obviously would have been more sensible to park the tour bus and lift over there to accommodate the guests. There were several guests complaining to the staff at the front desk about this issue… rightfully so in my opinion.

Indoor pool, close location to beach, great restaurant, Beachcombers Tiki Hut. Chef Marina and waitress Raelyn were outstanding as well as our meals, we ate dinner there twice. Chef Marina even came out to our table to talk to us when we told our waitress how good the food was. Breakfast buffet was absolutely worth it. The staff was very polite and super engaging. Front desk staff and the cleaning staff were very accommodating. There was constantly someone mopping the floors and elevators, cleaning up from people being on the beach and in the pool.

Nothing

We stay at the Ramada every year when we vacation at the Outer Banks. The location can’t be beat, the covered pool is great in the occasion of rainy days, and the overall accessibility and cleanliness of the rooms and facility is great.

The only complaint I have about the rooms are the barn door style bathroom doors. They do not stay shut so we typically keep a towel on the floor and just wedge it between the door and the wall. It’s a minor inconvenience and an easy fix but a hook on the inside of the door would definitely fix this issue.

Proximity to beach, restaurants and shopping very good

Hotel restaurant was not open first 2 days of our stay. Was not mentioned online that it would be closed, we may have stayed elsewhere if this had been known. Room design not great. Bathroom door very awkward, very heavy ,would not stay open or closed. This was our 2nd time staying here. Last time umbrellas and chairs were available on site. We had to purchase own umbrella and bring own chairs. Rooms are expensive, these Extra amenities would have been nice. Not sure if we would stay here again.

Loved the hot tub, indoor pool, the breakfast buffet was amazing. Cost around 10 dollars per person but it’s definitely worth it. Oceanfront balcony was really nice too. Saw some dolphins swimming by.

No smoking on the balcony was disappointing. Also the bed was much harder than I prefer. Other than that it was a great hotel for the price.

The location was perfect, in the middle of anything we'd like to do. The indoor pool was fantastic for this time of year. We enjoyed the beach, but the heated pool and hot tub were great! We ate breakfast there one day, and the rest out. Would have likely ate there more, but it was not included in the pricing. The hotel was very clean and the staff were so phenomenal! All the pet friendly rooms were on the first floor, which really is a great idea. We were able to enjoy the restaurant before they closed for the month of January.

I honestly have no complaints. I would recommend this hotel to others.

I liked the location it was beachfront and a short drive to stores and restaurants. I paid the extra to check in early and it was worth it and they put us on the 2nd floor which was same floor as pool and beach access. The pool area provided clean towels and didn't close until 10pm.

The pool area can be very slippery. The water is dragged out into the hotel hallways and had to constantly tell me kids to slow down to not slip. They just need some more rugs to have more coverage.

The room was comfortable overall. The beds and pillows were nice. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The pool was actually warmer than freezing cold, so it was nice to be able to get in. The location is great to be able to walk right onto the beach, too. It was nice to see it pet friendly. Loved seeing other guests dogs. Very nice indeed.

The only thing is the area around the pool and hot tub need to have some sort of grit materials put down. It is way too slippery, and an accident is waiting to happen.
