Staff were fantastic and very helpful. Breakfast was a great start for the two days we were there. The bed was very clean and super comfortable! The small dock on the sound was a bonus, I was able to get a little fishing time in. We look forward to visiting this Inn again!

We had an unobstructed view of the sound. Our room was large, with a super comfortable king bed and a jetted tub. Breakfast was included and it was terrific- ordered from menu with lots of options and plenty of food. Pamlico Inn is outstanding!

Pamlico Paradise

Very much enjoyed our time - the Staff are awesome; food is very good and plentiful. Only one negative note: the walls and floors are thin, so depending on how busy and how lucky you get with neighbors, and your tolerance for human noise, this may affect your experience.

Island Time

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at The Inn on Pamlico Sound and would highly recommend it to visitors. We were able to quickly relax and unwind while taking in the beautiful view of the sound just outside our window. The inn features a pool, an excellent restaurant on site, a garden, a boardwalk, bikes, umbrellas, and many other amenities. Stay there and enjoy some island time!
