Our first visit to the Outer Banks was enhanced by our accommodations at Shutters on the Banks. The room was very clean, the staff was respectful, and the amenities very convenient and helpful. We will definitely return to SOTB on our next trip to the OB!

What a gem! This property was so clean, well-equipped and comfortable. Our family of five (three young kids) felt safe and right at home here. Easy parking, everything you could need in the kitchen and plenty of chairs around the table. We truly hope to stay again during a future OBX getaway!
