Mental Wellness in Manteo
Q. When staying at the White Doe Inn which room would you choose for the most relaxing stay? Also, what areas around the property do you enjoy most?
A. Hmmm, this is a tough one as all of our rooms have relaxing amenities whether it be balconies overlooking the garden, gas fireplaces, soaking jetted tubs, or a massage shower. If I had to choose, I would say the Garret Bedchamber. This room features a double-sided fireplace so you can be cozy by the fire in bed or the bath and relax with a good book or a romantic comedy movie on the TV. My favorite area to relax on the property is the swing in the sunken garden – surrounded by gorgeous blooms by day and twinkle bistro lights by night. Find the perfect Outer Banks lodging option for you. – Liz

Q. What are some things you do around Manteo that help you maintain your self-wellness?
A. My daily walks with my corgi keep me happy and healthy. We stroll around downtown Manteo by Marshes Lighthouse, down to Festival Park to watch the sunset from their boardwalk, or take a quick drive to the many other trails around Manteo. – Liz

Q. What is your favorite aspect about Roanoke Island and why would this be a good place for guests to make a trip dedicated to self-wellness?
A. Roanoke Island is the hidden gem of the Outer Banks in my eyes – little commercialization and a small-town vibe are why I call it home and exactly why guests should plan for a getaway to relax and unwind. Come visit all the family-owned restaurants and shops, explore the historical attractions that make Manteo what it is today, and enjoy the outdoors.

Mindful Massages
Q. What treatment would you recommend for someone wanting to destress, and why?
A. I would recommend the Ultimate disconnect. Starting off with a 90-minute massage gives time to focus on long-held tension and stress. Alleviates inflammation, muscle tension, and stiff joints, while increasing endorphins, blood circulation, and improving immune system functions. This treatment finishes with an Epsom salt bath soothing aches and pains, reducing swelling and tenderness, and providing aromatherapy. Plus, what is more, relaxing than strawberries and bubbly brought up to your room right after your massage. – Jamie

Q. What are the benefits of having an in-room massage?
A. Have you ever had a massage and gotten up feeling lightheaded, dizzy, or just kind of out of it? Eliminate the stress of getting back in the car and driving, by getting a massage right there in your room at our Outer Banks Spa & Inn. This also allows the muscles to fully reset and rebound from treatment. – Jamie
