About this property

**NEW LISTING** Wellington's Retreat is located in Shallowbag Bay Marina in Manteo, NC. Manteo is a perfect place to visit in the Outer Banks! It is less touristy than places such as Nags Head or Kitty Hawk, but still includes tons of fun things to do and is only a 10 minute drive to Nags Head. It is also just minutes away from Downtown Manteo, which includes a variety of shops and restaurants. The condo has views of the North Carolina sound from every room, which is perfect for watching sunrises and sunsets each day! Striper's Bar and Grill is conveniently located in the same building and is just downstairs, making it a great place to get a meal without going very far at all. The Club House offers a gym and outdoor pool for guests of Shallowbag.

Amazing views!

We had a great stay. The condo is very spacious, comfortable beds, nice community pool area, quiet area, and the views from the balcony are gorgeous! We sat out there every morning with our coffee for sunrise and every evening for sunset. The owner responded right away with any questions we had. Highly recommend!

Wonderful stay

We had a great stay at the condo! The view was great, very peaceful in the morning. We sat out every morning and enjoyed the sunrise and watching the boats head out. While the master bath shower is currently not working, there’s a bathroom right outside the door so it wasn’t an issue. Will definitely stay here again if we’re in Manteu.

Great Condo!

Located on the Sound in the cute town of Manteo. Great views from all rooms and decks. Decorated fun and colorful. Plenty of space. Beds were comfortable and seating in living space worked nicely for our family. Host responded to questions very quickly. We would definitely stay again and we recommend it.

Brightly decorated condo in a small quiet neighborhood, but definitely in need of some repairs, which some are scheduled already. Had great communication with the manager about the issues.

Mixed Experience

While there were a few positive aspects, we encountered several issues that impacted our overall stay. First and foremost, we want to emphasize the importance of thoroughly reading the property listing. Unfortunately, we failed to notice that the master shower and washer were out of order, despite this being mentioned in the listing. It's crucial to pay close attention to these details to avoid any inconvenience. Upon arrival, we noticed that the ice maker and water filter spout at the kitchen sink were also not working. Additionally, the lack of seating in the living area was disappointing, with only one couch and chair provided. This limited the comfort and convenience for our group. The condition of the carpets was a letdown, as they appeared dirty and stained. It diminished the overall cleanliness and appeal of the property. There was no soap provided in the showers, so we had to rely on our own supply. Even the hand soap in the bathrooms was nearly empty, requiring us to add water to retrieve the soap. The beds were exceptionally hard and firm, and the pillows were noticeably flat, resulting in a less than comfortable sleep experience. The TV remotes didn't work because the batteries were wet and corroded. There were light bulbs out over the master bath sink area too. Positives:The views were great, location and restaurant on propoerty! It seemed as though minimal effort was put into ensuring a welcoming and well-prepared environment for visitors.
