"Hampton Inn Corolla was a dream! I am hesitant to say too much for fear of getting the word out but let’s just say it was so hard to leave and I’m already looking at the calendar to return!"

10/10 Excellent
"Great location, we had a family wedding at Whales head museum. Family members were able to bring their dogs instead of placing them in a kennel. We all live in different states and it was great staying in the same place. All of our children are now adults, and the cousins had a good time hanging out at night on the pier. The whole property has ramps as well as stairs. I use a cane and was able to walk everywhere. Nice pool area, with lounge chairs and a view of the bay and pier. Rooms were very large, with ceilings fans and air conditioning. Breakfast was included, and well stocked, with breakfast sandwiches, yogurt, hot and cold cereals, fresh fruit, bagels, English muffins, tea, coffee, juices, pastry, with seating inside and outside. Bikes are available on the property and maintained daily. Plenty of parking, and shopping is close. Our family loved staying and we plan on returning in the future for a family reunion."
