The Tranquil House Inn is located on the beautiful boardwalk in the heart of Manteo. Life here revolves around the rhythm of Shallowbag Bay, home to fishermen, sailors, luxury yacht owners, and the crew of the Queen Elizabeth II. When you book a stay in one of the accommodations at our boutique hotel in Manteo, North Carolina, you are minutes from all the excitement and activity of the beaches, yet you can return to a private haven where you can rejuvenate and relax.
