“It was so nice”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 23, 2013

It was the third weekend in September and the weather was great. The Nags Head Inn was the crowning touch to a fabulous weekend. The room was very clean and up to date. The staff was friendly and were glad to answer all our questions. The beach was very accessible. The continental breakfast was good, especially the sweet potato biscuits. I'd stay there again and have recommended it to others.

“Great, quaint fantastic service and easy accomodations!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 11, 2012 via mobile

We stayed for the OBX marathon series. The team already booked us for a late check out. Everyone was very gracious. Excellent access to the beach. I would stay here again for the value and the service.

“Lovely view”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 5, 2012 via mobile

We were on the fifth floor and the view was spectacular. Room was very clean and quiet. Will definitely come back. The staff is friendly and helpful. Plenty of restaurants still open though it is off season. Good price for an oceanfront room in this area.

“Just keeps getting better”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 24, 2012

Our second stay. We stayed here last year and it was lovely. Came back the first weekend of October and it was just superb. Friendly staff, everything was clean. Just lovely. Staff was very helpful on where to eat, etc. Sweet potato biscuits in the morning were just a treat. Reasonably priced.
