Super convenient location and easy access to the beach. So nice they had extra locks on the screens so you can leave the door open even with your dog in the room and they can’t push the door open.

The Sand Spur was in the perfect location. The beach is very easy to access, and the pool was a nice addition. It was fairly quiet, and the staff were friendly. There is some age of the building showing through, but the overall stay was perfect for exploring the Outer Banks.
Everything was great experience. Well maintained and efficient. We will be back again!!

The cottage was very cute and tidy. It was nice having a small kitchen and sitting area. Beds were comfortable and had enough storage space. Access to the beach was so convenient and lovely at night. Steps from Jeanettes pier, the location was great! Only complaint was lack of staff in the office when we lost power, no way to contact the office.
Even though it is an older hotel, the warmth and welcome by the staff makes it a better place for us to stay. We had a clean, inviting room, close to the beach, and fully equipped with a kitchen. Everything we needed.
This is our second time staying at the Sand Spur and we love it. The staff is helpful and kind. The place is clean and well maintained for being right on the beach. Location is excellent! Just walk bare feet to the beach. Pool is small but just what you need. The only thing I would recommend is bring some extra kitchen utensils/cup, etc. the kitchen has a couple of pots and pans but few dishes. We also brought our own cleaning sponge. Beds are comfy and linens clean. Strong AC and fans. Very family oriented!

Great beach access, close to everything, very nice staff. The only issue was the shower. It was very small and difficult to maneuver in.

Our “cottage” was a bit run down but certainly habitable. If it were mine, I’d gut it and do a complete remodel. It needed it. Beds were comfy. Location was good. Less than a minute walk to the beach which was accessible from the property. If you don’t need luxury, then you’ll be fine here, but if you’re looking for a 4 or 5 star, this ain’t it.
