I enjoyed my visit very much until I got a phone call asking if I had taken a bird house from the property. I was disgusted and very upset. I would never steal.
I was driving when I got the call and could hardly hear what she was saying. It made my 5 hr drive very anxious. I called back when I got to my destination and had to leave a message requesting I get a call back. No one has ever called me back.
So sad because I did enjoy the wonderful breakfast served every morning. The home is very interesting and filled with wonderful things to check out. I won’t go back.

Check in was easy but we were not welcomed very warmly.we were quickly told that we were not in a parking space and would need to move our car. Breakfast was served buffet style but no host or hostess was seem to see if our needs were being met. Everything was clean and inviting but the shower was growing a field of mildew along the base. It doesn’t take much effort to clean that now before it gets worse.

It was wonderful but please warn guests of steep, narrow steps to 2nd floor rooms. They were manageable for me but could be difficult if you have a bad back or breathing problems.

We absolutely loved our stay! Quaint rooms with everything you need. The bed was amazing, as was the breakfast with lots of options ranging from various fruits to cooked Southern breakfast staples. We very much enjoyed our conversations with Jeanne, the owner. We definitely recommend the Island House of
Wanchese and hope to return soon ourselves!

1.5 / 5.0
This was our third BnB on our current extensive trip in the USA.
The room and bed were comfortable and clean. The host was pleasant but not overly interested in us as a couple or the trip we are undertaking.
There was a good selection of food laid on for breakfast but no explanation to non Americans of what anything was which was a bit off putting when you are not familiar with regional delicacies.
The Wi-Fi was terrible which unfortunately was important to us.
Our bathroom was tiny, which we appreciate in such older style properties can be an issue but it needed a total upgrade with really poor mastic preventing water escaping.
The property looks tired and slightly stuck in a time warp.
We did venture out to the gazebo and it was nice to watch the humming birds but with two overflowing ashtrays I found this a bit off putting.
This was mid range of the prices we have paid on this trip and didn’t live up to expectation- sorry

I was looking forward to this Wanchese Inn but I was notified about ten days before our stay that there was a
problem with the room we would have been staying in
and there was not another room available for the dates we were interested in. I guess the Inn doesn't communicate
this with Expedia
