We (myself and 2 teenaged children) were there for a wedding. For past 37 years (since I was 13!), have always rented a house for a week every year as a family group-sometimes go there twice a year. Have had absolutely no experience with the Outer Banks hotels/motels, so we went in blind. Even in Sept, most had their no... more

We found the Islander Motel to be very nice, friendly, clean, and a great location for day trips around the Outer Banks. The beach is just over the dune and the pool is very inviting. My wife and I would return to the Islander in a heartbeat. The rooms were comfortable and clean. Plenty of parking for our car and... more

My wife, I and 2 grown children stayed at the Islander mid-Jun. The positives are location right off the beach, friendly and competent staff, cleanliness, nice landscaping and good value. The room was basic with 2 very comfortable queen beds, small but adequate bathroom, good air conditioning, mini fridge and 5 cup coffee maker (a microwave would be a nice... more

Stayed the weekend and was not impressed with the place. We had issues with bugs and the front desk personnel could have been friendlier. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place to a friend. more

People at the front desk were just wonderful-- I'm thinking it was a family run motel. The swimming pool: It was nice and the size was fairly big for a motel. The bedrooms: it felt like we were sleeping on a cloud. Very comfortable. Pillows were soft as well. TV and small fridge worked. We were only given soap. No... more

The Islander Motel is an old place. But it is well located in Nags Head directly on the beach with a large parking lot and a friendly staff. Their rates are excellent for that kind of place and the room, despite is old furniture and shower was really clean, and the fridge kept cold my beer! We got all the... more
