Top Nags Head Hotel Reviews

SandSpur Ocean Cottages

8/10 Good

"Amazing location, the hotel was great however in order to get any hot water it had to be set at the lowest possible water pressure which was not great. The proximity to the ocean was unbeatable as was the proximity to restaurants. It was very clean."

Seahorse Inn and Cottages

8/10 Good

"Loved the location and the staff! Cottage is across the street from the beach and Jennette's Pier! Great check-in process, very quick & budget friendly. Mgr was very helpful with tips & things to do in the local area. Very cute cottage and enjoyed the kitchen with full fridge with oven and microwave. I was able to cook my own meals and make coffee in the keurig. Wood floor was clean but did have dark streaks from people coming in with luggage. Shower had some mold on the shower corner but nothing big. The a/c kept the room cool but it did ice up and was sometimes loud. There's a door in the kitchen separating the units. Loud conversations can carry and you may be able to hear your neighbors. I loved the area and the cottages are charming. Enjoyed parking in front of the cottage. I'd definitely stay again!"

Tar Heel Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely nothing bad about this motel, it’s obviously not a luxurious beach hotel but it gets the job done. it’s right next to a beach access and in an amazing place if you’re looking to do a lot of activities. Hotel was clean, didn’t even speak to staff during my stay, as i said no complaints whatsoever!"

PierView Unit with Stunning Views, Pup Friendly & Pools

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at Pier View condos was absolutely wonderful! The condo was clean, comfortable, and in a fantastic location. Joe was an exceptional host—incredibly welcoming, responsive, and thoughtful throughout our entire visit. Every detail was taken care of to make our trip effortless and relaxing. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would love to stay here again!"

Holiday Inn Express Nags Head Oceanfront by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was amazing! I love the close access to the beach and the cleanliness pf the hotel overall. Food was ok on the breakfast buffet there weren't any pancakes but the kids enjoyed everything. The pool was useful since it started raining on our check in day. Overall 9/10."

The First Colony Inn

8/10 Good

"This is a charming old inn in a convenient location. It doesn’t have many amenities but it was fine for the price. It was very convenient to have a code for the rooms as opposed to a key. There was coffee on site but not breakfast. We found out on our second day that we could get a voucher for breakfast at a local restaurant. I wish I had known the first morning we were there. The rooms are small but fine for 2 days. The bed wasn’t very comfortable, but we really enjoyed staying there."
