This is a wonderful place to stay! The staff is caring and helpful. You get a breakfast brought to your room every morning, if you want it. Beautiful room! Gorgeous views! Conveniently located. Fun places, restaurants and shopping all within walking distance. Quiet and peaceful. Exactly what I was looking for. Hope to visit again soon.

I loved this place. It was beautiful and so relaxing. I cant wait to go ahead. Cinvenient to all types of food choices. Didn't have to drive if you didnt want too. Worth the money. Oh, and they bring breakfast to your room.

Wonderful stay!
Beautiful Inn, we enjoyed our stay! I would definitely recommend you stay here while visiting this area of North Carolina’s beautiful coast. It was relaxing, clean, comfortable and conveniently located in one of NC’s oldest historic towns. Thanks so much!

Located on the relatively quiet end of downtown Beaufort waterfront with great views of the banker ponies, dolphins, and walking distance from shops and restaurants. Rooms are freshly updated and beautifully appointed from the comfortable beds and pillows to the repurposed vintage bathroom mirrors with their distinctive patina flecks. My favorite feature was the regular wooden room door and metal key (no heavy hotel room door that slams shut). Rooms are spacious and comfortable, bright and airy as well as beautifully decorated. You will find all of the usual suspects … flat screen, fridge, coffee pot, hairdryer. The rooms have roomy balconies with comfortable rocker chairs and a beautiful view of the docks and Carrot Island. My 2nd floor king waterfront did not disappoint. A scrumptious complimentary breakfast is included between 7:30 am - 9:30 am. You simply call and they bring it to your room within minutes! Muffins, quiche, bagels, yogurt, coffee, tea, juice. The Inlet Inn is family-owned and the staff are Beaufort locals with a wealth of knowledge of the area. Friendly and personable too. The 3rd floor has a cozy nautical lodge-like sitting area where you could retreat to have a private zoom meeting or simply gather with friends. There is also a widow’s walk with a spectacular view! It is a thoughtful common space created for guests. There is ample parking within the enclosed courtyard parking area. The flickering lanterns and strings of garden lights adorn the property and are a timeless and beautiful touch at night! The Inlet Inn is the perfect retreat for empty-nesters and retirees who seek to be transported back to a simpler time. It has a bed and breakfast feel and all of the spaces are intentional and brilliant to achieve this - no pool, no noise, no kids running around … only quiet flower garden seating areas. I visited the first days of March and I am certain the “shoulder seasons” are the ideal time to visit (March/April and September/October). The Inlet Inn is a beautiful gem in Downtown Beaufort and will remain my first choice for future visits!

Thank you for sharing such a detailed and glowing review! We're thrilled you enjoyed your stay, from the amenities to the serene views. Your kind words mean a lot to us and future guests. We look forward to your return (and you are spot on about 'shoulder season') - hope to see you soon!
We stayed for the 1st time and really loved the place. Nice big rooms with a great location and easy parking. Staff was very nice and helpful providing a lot of great area tips/information. Lots of special little touches. In the morning, you call and order what you want for a continental breakfast and for all our mornings it was brought to the room within 15 minutes!

Ver happy at the Inlet
Just returned from our first trip to Beaufort. We arrived on Monday and left on Friday. If we could repeat the week , we would! We picked the best destination and a wonderful inn. It was lovely starting our day with breakfast on our balcony overlooking the water and ending the day on the widows walk .

☺Love the location in Beaufort and the size of the room was great. This is my 3rd stay since October and I’ve loved them all. Some things you might want to consider adding is verifying that the humidifiers are working in the rooms daily. Our humidifier stopped working one night and the room got quite hot.
Otherwise we love it there and will come again. Thank you.
