Spectacular view from our room and our private balcony. The location cannot be beat and the room had everything we needed. I only wish we could have stayed longer! Everything was spotless, the bed slept great and the chairs by the picture window were perfect to relax and enjoy a drink woke watching the water. The spa tub was a perfect extra, but the shower is great, too. Kitchenette included full size fridge, microwave, toaster, and coffee maker.

I booked through booking.com which for me has always worked out fine. Not this time. On the website all the rooms were spacious, colorful and had nice harbor views. As soon as I opened the door it was a big thud. All stark tiny room with a view of the driveway between the properties. I complained to the management and they just blamed the booking company. When I complained to them they just said 'we'll look into it.'
I think the property HAS nice rooms, just not ours. The location was nice and there were common areas you could hang on that was nice. But for $385 for two nights I expected more than 1980s motel 6 accommodations.
Would not go back and would not recommend. We did a long outer banks road trip and this was both the most expensive and least nice property we stayed at, by far.

The best hotel on Ocracoke
We've stayed in most of the hotels on the island, and the Ocracoke Harbor Inn is our favorite. The view from the second-floor rooms is great (and from the third-floor rooms as well, I'm sure). The rooms are comfortable, clean and well furnished. They're also remarkably quiet.
Everything you expect in an island village. Extraordinary view of the bay and short walks to most places. The rooms are clean and spacious with all needed amenities. The staff is friendly and helpful and very knowledgeable of the area. Suites are also available that would complete with much more...

Everyone in the office was super friendly and the view from our room on the 3rd floor was wonderful. We enjoyed starting our day with coffee on the balcony watching the boats in the harbor and the ferry’s as they came in. Parking was nice and so was having golf carts to rent on site as that is the best way to get around the village. Highly recommend

We really enjoyed our stay. It was short — only one night, but we did a lot. Most of all, the folks at the hotel are the hotel’s biggest asset — everyone very kind and accommodating. We flew into the airport and Byron promptly picked us up, which we appreciated very much. They even upgraded our room to a kitchenette and more space. The room definitely seemed new; it was clean, with plenty of towels and well air conditioned. Lunch, dinner, sleep, breakfast, shopping, then back to the airport. We’ll be back and I highly recommend the hotel.

The Ocracoke Harbor Inn is charming, off the beaten path and has spectacular views. The staff are friendly (as is everyone on the island). Less costly than other places to stay and a place where the family returns to time and time again. Ocracoke beach is one of the top 10 in the world for a reason. Anytime of year is great to go but I appreciate going off-season in September.

We spent one night here on a trip traveling down the outer banks of North Carolina. What a lovely spot, the view of the harbor was beautiful, the room was comfortable for one night, I would have preferred more comfortable seating if we were staying longer, but then we opted for an entry level room, nothing fancy. The provided breakfast was basic but fine, with the added extra of boiled eggs! The staff were friendly and helpful about things around the island. I would definitely stay here again.

This has become our go-to place on Ocracoke.
Wonderful view of Silver Lake. Can watch the ferry come and go. Sitting on the porch is great. Really clean room. Nice decor. Good continental breakfast. Helpful staff. Convenient location. We have stayed in several places on Ocracoke. This has been the best. Stayed twice and will again.
Absolutely the best hotel and choice of rental cottages on the island!
If you want peace and tranquility, you have come to the right place. This is absolutely the best hotel in Ocracoke... they offer rooms and suites, and my husband and I stayed in a one bedroom suite, on the top floor, and it was maginicent! The place had everything you...
If you want peace and tranquility, you have come to the right place. This is absolutely the best hotel in Ocracoke... they offer rooms and suites, and my husband and I stayed in a one bedroom suite, on the top floor, and it was maginicent! The place had everything you could want and more. The views of Silver Lake were amazing. The owners/employees were so helpful in providing imformation about the island, as well as a continental breakfast each morning. We rented a golf cart and toured the entire island. We got a beach permit to drive on the beach in our SUV, and went to the beach everyday...which is the most expansive beach ever!!! Red Drum was running and the fishermen were reeling them in! I actually had fresh Red Drum @ Jason's Restaurant and it was delicious. They also offer cottages for rent, and we have already booked a cottage, to return with friends, who have never been to Ocracoke, in 2026.

Wonderful location
Wonderful place to stay
Wonderful views
Wonderful town
Had never been to OCRACOKE before and the Harbor Inn looked like the place to stay. Boy was I right. The room was great, the views better and the location was perfect.
Wonderful hotel (inn) in a beautiful location.
The OHI is located in an excellent location, situated on a beautiful harbor, with downtown Ocracoke right around the corner. You can easily walk to many stores, restaurants, etc., and if you rent (onsite if needed) a bike or bring one, access to even more easily. We loved being able...
The OHI is located in an excellent location, situated on a beautiful harbor, with downtown Ocracoke right around the corner. You can easily walk to many stores, restaurants, etc., and if you rent (onsite if needed) a bike or bring one, access to even more easily. We loved being able to park the car and not drive it until we left.
The room itself was very clean, well lit, bright and airy. The sheets, pillows and towels were of high-quality, and felt very nice.
The OHI seems very well maintained, and everything seems well thought out, from the showers out back, to the fresh water hose available to use if needed, and more.
Finally, and importantly, the staff are very friendly, and more than willing to help you.
The only two cons are very small:
Would be nice to have a towel holder by the sink.
The breakfast is adequate, but don’t expect something you would see at the Hampton Inn.
Wonderful stay, hoping to return again and if so, know where we will be staying.

. Our room was damp and had a very musty smell. It made for a very disappointing experience. We did not sleep well due to the smell and dampness. It was our anniversary so we were extra bummed. The other issue we had was people smoking on the balcony to the left and under us. Totally ruined the anticipated sunset on the balcony. The location was nice but we wanted to be honest about our unpleasant experience.

Great place with a great location.
Place was clean and people friendly. Balcony had a great view of Mirror Lake. Close to everything. Walked to Dajio's, SmacNally's, Ocracoke Oyster House and Zillies. Also walking distance to The Ocracoke Lighthouse. We've already booked for next year.
Still Our Favorite Place to Stay Since 1998!

We have been coming to The Ocracoke Harbor Inn since the first summer they opened in 1998. There are many reasons we continue to return to OHI throughout the years. First and foremost, it’s the owners. The Miller family and their entire staff treat their guests like family. They are accommodating, friendly and you will feel like you are coming home every time you visit.
Second, the Inn and property. They offer a variety of rooms and houses that you can choose from for your stay. The OHI takes great pride in the cleanliness and maintenance of their rooms as well as the overall property. Throughout the years the rooms have been updated. The extensive dock area is well maintained and a beautiful spot to throw out a line, dock your boat, or just relax and enjoy the peaceful harbor views.
There are several places on the island that we like to have breakfast in the mornings, but we always make time to enjoy the breakfast that the OHI offers. It is a light continental fare that really hits the spot before heading out for beach or ferry.
The pride and commitment the Ocracoke Harbor Inn has with providing a wonderful experience for its guests is evident in every corner and it is what will always keep us coming back to our favorite inn on our favorite island.

The accommodations are amazing. We have stayed with OHI on every visit to the island. The staff make sure to cover everything, and they are friendly and engaging from booking to check out.
We will always come back to their properties.
Great place to stay in a fun little coastal town. Very clean, quiet, close to everything. Room was nicely decorated and right across the street from the dock where you could sit in the evening and watch the sunset. Innkeeper and staff were friendly.
Great Location…Comfortable and Clean

The location of the hotel and the harbor view from our balcony were wonderful. The rooms are just your basic rooms that are comfortable and clean. Having the luggage lift so we didn’t have to carry our suitcases up the stairs was appreciated. The continental breakfast in the office across the street was fine with muffins, bagels, yogurt and hard boiled eggs. Overall, I would stay there again.
