I had to go to Kill Devil Hills for the wedding of a cousin, plus my birthday. I had never stayed at a hotel in this area before, so I relied on the reviews of other travelers. Shutters on the Banks received very good reviews and rating, so I chose it. This hotel is right on the beach. It was exceptionally clean in my room. I was very impressed. There were two women at the front desk; one of them had a birthday the day after mine, and they were both very helpful, friendly, and a real joy to speak with. There was an indoor and an outdoor pool, and a small gym, but I didn't get to use any of these amenities. Get a room in the tower building, at least on the third floor or higher. I had a room on the second floor, which had a nice little balcony and some Adirondack chairs, but all I could see were the dunes, not the Atlantic Ocean. There was also a complimentary breakfast, but alas, I did not get to eat there. The grounds were also very well kept. If I ever go back to this area, this is the hotel where I will stay. My only complaints are 1) I had a room with two queen beds, and the bed I slept in had a raised elongated lump, which made me unable to lie flat, and to roll off to the side of the mattress. The other issue was the shutters; I closed them as tightly as possible, but by 6 am, it was as bright as noon in the room. The second night I had to drape a blanket across the shutters to keep the room dark enough to sleep.

This turned out to be an excellent place to stay. The rooms were roomy and comfortable. There was a large sitting room with a TV. A separate sleeping area (with it's own TV) was partially divided from the sitting area. The bathroom was adequate (though it didn't have hot water long enough when bathing to suit me). Courtesy soap and lotion were provided. There was a microwave, mini fridge and a Keurig with several coffee pods. There are two small pools, (one is inside, along with a hot tub) and an exercise room. A buffet breakfast is included ... as ai private access to the beach

This was my 3rd stay at Shutters on the Banks, and I’d come again! Really appreciated the free breakfast! That was a lifesaver. The rooms were cutely decorated and recently updated. Loved the inclusion of a mini fridge AND a microwave. The bathroom could have been a little better, though. Not bad by any means, but whenever we tried to take a shower, the water came out of both the bath faucet and the shower head no matter what we tried. That decreased the water pressure coming out of the shower head pretty significantly. There was also a pair of panties left behind in one of the dresser drawers from a previous guest, which was kind of gross. Other than that, though, we had a great stay!

Great place for adults and if you have young kids. Beach is so close to rooms. Breakfast is perfect. Small enough hotel that staff can recognize you. Close to delis, beach store and great restaurants. Just pack beach chairs and an umbrella for beach. We loved being able to go to Wright Brothers museum.

We love to stay in this hotel! We've been here several times in the off season; can't say how it is in the summer season but it's nice and quiet when we go. Pools are always almost empty so we float around in peace lol. There's a couple of good restaurants within walking distance, too. Everything is maintained well, parking is great, and the front desk very sweet and helpful!

We had a lovely stay! The room was clean and most of all we loved the beach access. It's so easy to pop over to the beach any time of day (we most enjoyed going in the evening when it was a bit cooler) and the outdoor foot rinse near the pool is helpful so you're not tracking sand back into the room. This was a perfect base for exploring the Outer Banks!

Loved the location! The breakfast in morning was replenished often and plenty of seating inside and out. The pool and hot tub was a hit with the kids, especially since it was too windy and cool for the beach. Helpful staff. Would stay again!

We were particularly impressed with the front desk staffs' friendliness and helpfulness. While there my special needs daughter celebrated her 35th birthday. The staff, when they were made aware of it, really made her stay special by celebrating it on the front hotel sign as well as greeting her with "Happy Birthday" on her special day. The breakfast service was always very good and on time. Any requests we had were quickly addressed. I don't hesitate to recommend this hotel, and we would stay there again!

First time getting a room with the kitchen at this property typically we stay in the towers. Was told it has the bare necessities for kitchen. As far as silverware went there was one small spoon, one big spoon and one knife and one fork we asked for more and they said they were gonna bring it right over. It didn’t happen so the next day we asked again and they finally brought it and we were told he forgot. This our second time here we love this property. We love the location. Hot tub is nice and the pool. Everything‘s always clean. It’s a quick easy walk to the beach.

The only thing the bed's are really soft. The room was clean and the staff went out of there way too get us a room on the ground floor since Expedia had me on the second floor and I plainly told them I was handicapped and couldn't climb steps. I will not book through Expedia again the number you call you is voice recording and they kept telling me my itinerary number wasn't right or my phone number wasn't right. It was the biggest mess. I was so frustrated we were down for a wedding so if shudders hadn't had an extra room we would have been screwed. The staff even said they have trouble with getting through to them. They had to ask the on call person to change our room and he shouldn't have had to been bothered for there screw up.

We had a positive stay here. The only negative was beach access, because the sand was hot and very soft (we are both in our seventies), everything else was great. We will stay there again.

Our recent stay at Shutters on the Banks was absolutely outstanding, and it easily ranks as one of the best hotel experiences we’ve ever had. From the moment we checked in, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and valued.The room was immaculately clean, beautifully decorated, and incredibly spacious. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, ensuring a peaceful and restful night’s sleep after a long day of exploring. We also loved the small attention to detail, like the complimentary coffee station in the kitchen.The location was unbeatable, placing us within easy walking distance to the ocean, major local attractions and fantastic dining options. Every morning started with a delicious, high-quality breakfast buffet that offered a variety of fresh choices. Thank you to the entire team for making our trip so special—we will absolutely be returning!

Been coming to the OBX for many years and decided to try Shutters because of the indoor pool and hot tub being it is still May. This has been the best hotel we have ever stayed at here. It was so clean, the breakfast was a great add on, pools and hot tubs were great. I normally comment at other hotels how there are cigarette butts everywhere, not one to be found on the ground here:)
