Summary: This place has gone so far downhill, it's sad. We loved it when it was the Clam Digger and also when it was Pine Knoll Shores Inn. It's definitely not the same and has lost a lot of the "family feel" that it once had. The restaurant and tiki bar are now separate from the hotel and both are awful, and the pool and hot tub need a lot of work. The hotel nickels and dimes its guests, and is not straightforward about any of the changes that will affect their experience. You have to figure things out on your own, after the fact. If you want breakfast, go up the street to one of the several other restaurants and steer clear of the hotel restaurant. They're not serving anything that's on the menu and won't tell you that until youve already sat down and ordered drinks. The food that is on the menu is not even in the building. Instead, they'll charge you almost $50 for two people to eat from what they call a "buffet." There's barely anything in the "buffet," and what is there is cold and stuck to the pans. This was our favorite place for almost 13 years. We will never go back.
