The Pearl Hotel

Independent lodging in Manteo, minutes from Roanoke Island's historic north-end sites

Manteo, NC

About

The Pearl Hotel is located on Old Tom St in Manteo, on Roanoke Island — the Outer Banks' historic and cultural anchor, a different world from the barrier-island beach towns to the east and reached by crossing the Washington Baum Bridge from Whalebone Junction. Roanoke Island is where the 1580s Roanoke Colony, England's first attempt at a permanent New World settlement, vanished without a confirmed explanation — an open historical question that still draws visitors to the island's north end.

Manteo's downtown is a walkable waterfront district built around Shallowbag Bay, distinct from the strip-mall corridor along the beach highways, with independent shops, restaurants, and a working harbor. Staying here puts the island's historic cluster — Fort Raleigh National Historic Site, Elizabethan Gardens, the Lost Colony outdoor drama, and Roanoke Island Festival Park — within easy reach, along with downtown Manteo itself.

As an independent lodging property, it's worth confirming current room configurations, amenities, and rates directly with The Pearl Hotel by phone at (252) 305-8048 or through its website before booking.

My wife and I just enjoyed a great weekend at The Pearl! This boutique hotel is in the perfect place downtown Manteo where you can walk to all the local shops and restaurants. We stayed in the La Dolce Vista room. King size bed and the mattress/pillows were very comfortable. They use Beekman soap and shampoo in the bath, which my wife loves! Like other reviews, definitely go on the roof to enjoy the swings and the view. The service from the staff was great - always friendly and eager to help. Lisa even set us up with a dinner reservation at Vicky B's our first night there. Highly recommend The Pearl if you are visiting the area!

We had the pleasure of staying at the Pearl Hotel for our granddaughter’s wedding, and it was a wonderful experience. Every member of the staff was incredibly welcoming, friendly, and genuinely helpful, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. Their warm hospitality truly added to such a special weekend. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely choose the Pearl Hotel again. Highly recommended!

Adorable! All the trendy decorator concepts. I know, I’m almost done renovating 2 houses in Boulder. Nothing old & creaky. Nothing musty smelling. Plus they have 2 BR 2 BA suites or/and adjoining rooms. Romantic rooftop perfect for parties/weddings/anniversaries. Linen & toiletries all rate highly.

Hotel is absolutely beautiful, especially the rooftop terrace for morning sunrises and evening sunsets. The location in Manteo allows you walk everywhere, so nice not looking for parking!
