Recently stayed here with my wife for 4 nights. There are very few options for those that want a shorter stay than the typical week long beach rental. Advice 5 Cents is an excellent option. Location is great, right around the corner from the main dowtown area of Duck. Beach is an easy 0.4 mile walk and they provide beach... More

This place was a gem. Within walking distance to shops and restaurants and a short walk to the beach. Would not hesitate to recommend to anyone who is interested in a great alternative to the pricey hotels in the area. Clean, comfy and a great value!

Located a short walk to the ocean, spitting distance from Duck Road and the sound. The rooms and entire house was spotlessly clean. Well appointed rooms and common areas. Comfortable living rooms for lounging in hot or bad weather. A nook for family games, which we played late into the night without disturbing guests. Extensive decking for guest use. Breakfast...

Dealing with the reservations was simple enough because the dates of our stay were completely void of any other guests, and we soon discovered why. This was our second stay at a B&B, and perhaps we were spoiled from the southern charm and delicious food with snacks in between in Asheville, NC- but hiding the "free" breakfast cereals in the...

Visited the Outer Banks this spring and decided to stayed away from the hub-bub of Nags Head. We were delighted to find this B & B tucked away in Duck where we could relax in peace and quiet. Lovely conversations at breakfasts. Appreciated the home made breakfasts and great coffee. We will be back this fall.

B&B was very clean and the experience was quiet and relaxed. But in reality it was only an expensive motel room. Breakfast was less than a continental type found at basic hotels. Owner was curt and formal. B&B's that I stayed at had more personality. It was a good five minutes from the beach and closer to the town of... More

Ok, i finally get it. This place is all about the Lucy character in the Penuts comic strip. If you're like me (Charlie Brown) and hate having the football pulled away just as you're about to kick, then you'll be disappointed in this B&B. The place is very clean, and new, with good common areas to share with other guests.... More

This is a comfortable B&B. I was satisfied with the central location to the beach and shops, as well as with the size of the room and the quality of the bedding (great fluffy towels). Yes, the owners keep to themselves, but then, we weren't there much ourselves. Breakfast was more of a continental style, with fresh baked scones and... More

My daughter and I stayed at Advice 5cents on June 25th and 26th. We are very familiar with this area of the Outer Banks as our family has been vacationing in Duck and Corolla for the past 15 years. However, our family has always rented a cottage for a full week, and my daughter and I were there only for... More
