Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United StatesOnly complaint was about 12 hours prior to checkout our air conditioner stopped really working. It maintained around 71-73 through the night but started to climb prior to checkout but the maintenance guy was super helpful. I also wish you would have pool access for day of check out - made it interesting to try to enjoy our last day at the beach and then change after being on the beach all day.
Location is fantastic. Loved being on the beach access floor. Perfect size for a family and beachy enough to be beachy but nice enough that it didn’t feel “rundown” by the beach weather.

United StatesBeds hard and if you like good AC, go somewhere else. Spoke to front desk multiple times and told best it could do. Unable to switch rooms, room stayed around 78-80 when moving around in room but was given a fan that helped. Tried to tell cleaning staff about changing bed sheets and told we dont do that. Was there for a week and not offered a cleaning/turn down
Location right on the beach, staff was friendly particularly day shift. Restaurant was decent. Pool close

United StatesOverall we enjoyed our stay at Sea Ranch, but you can tell the facility is aging & needs some up keep . We had a few hiccups , but the staff was pretty quick to address the issues . The room & facility overall are showing their age & wear as well as they stopped giving complimentary pens as they have for the last at least 7 years. You can also tell the cleaning staff are rushed to turnover rooms as small details / corners do not get fully cleaned or vacuumed . I would stay here again if there was another sale as it works well for families or those that cannot walk a long distance to the beach to set up their tent / beach chairs .
Overall we enjoyed our stay at Sea Ranch, but you can tell the facility is aging & needs some up keep . The easy access to the beach with wagon filled with snacks , chairs , & beach toys, lobby restroom ( toddler potty breaks without going all the way back to your room) , & being close to a lifeguard chair are some of the best parts of Sea Ranch . Also , the location in Kill Devil Hills is convenient to many attractions & good local food. I would stay here again if there was another sale as it works well for families or those that cannot walk a long distance to the beach to set up their tent / beach chairs .

United StatesCondensation in the room made the ceiling drip water. The room had an unpleasant smell, even after spraying Febreze, it never went away. We were hardly in our room, only to sleep, shower and things of that nature.
Close to the beach and other amenities. The Beachside Bistro was nice.

United StatesAC wasn’t working and building should be sprayed for bugs.
Perfect location and the restaurant is wonderful. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Thomas at the front desk saved our vacation by helping us get another room in the separate building that did have AC (we were on the 5th floor oceanfront building and it was 90° in that room) and they even worked with us on a partial refund. It wasn’t the room we wanted and paid for but at that point AC was more important than a view. And we were extremely appreciative of that!

United StatesThe air conditioning wasn't working properly and I am thankful that we brought a fan with us. It stayed around 83 in our room for both nights. The pool was closed due to some issues so that was a little upsetting but not so much that I wouldn't stay again.
This was my first time for going to OBX and I really enjoyed my experience. We stayed on the top floor ocean front and the view was perfect from the balcony. All the staff we encountered on our stay were super friendly and helpful.
