Top South Nags Head Hotel Reviews

Ocean side/romance/pet friendly/dishwasher/Nags Head

10/10 Excellent

"It was such a cozy, clean and perfect size place for the two of us and our little dog. The location was great!"

Luxury Oceanfront home in South Nags Head!

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I have been vacationing in the Outer Banks for more than 30 years, and this is the best house we have had. It is beautifully decorated, all of the equipment was operating well, the house was stocked with everything we might need from kichen gadgets to electric grill, t.v.'s in all the rooms, lots of gear for the beach, our host was readily available if we had any questions and she had kindly provided supplies we might need so we didn't have to rush to the store--things like paper towels, toilet paper, shampoos, body wash, sunscreen, spices, even some food and soda. There was so much natural light, and all of the sliding glass doors worked well (this is rare, especially for oceanfront homes). The last thing I want to add is that we have rented a number of homes where the houses we have rented do not look like the photos that are posted which clearly were either done by skilled photographers or the photos were taken quite some time ago and they do not reflect the current look/state of the home. Not so for this house as it was as lovely as it appears in the photos! What a delighful stay."

Enjoy your magnificent ocean views from your huge balcony!

10/10 Excellent

"This is the second time we’ve stayed and can’t recommend this condo more! Check in is exceptionally smooth, communication is easy and quick, parking is plentiful, and the location is incredible! Waking up with the sunrise is our favorite beach activity and this condo makes this tradition comfortable and easy. It’s been very quiet for both of our stays and has plenty of space to spread out inside the condo. You can’t beat the price for everything you get! The elevator is like many in a beachfront building and it doesn’t always work but the host communicates about this if it’s not working ahead of your visit. The condo has some updates but is mostly a slightly dated, beachfront rental. It’s perfect for those who don’t care about “high end” updates. It’s comfortable and has everything you need. If you get a chance to stay here, you’ll be thrilled you did!"

Oceanside Cottage Steps from the Beach! The Gray Sandcastle!

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at the gray sandcastle! Short walk down the driveway to the beach great location. Tons of linens provided. Great amenities including beach chairs. Fun space with shuffleboard and the ring game. Note: there was major flooding at the end of the driveway due to unprecedented rains. If we had a car (and not an SUV) this could’ve presented a problem. But the owner indicated this was due to the week of heavy downpours prior to our arrival."

Beach Renourishment Complete! Amazing Views! Large Oceanfront! 3 King Bedrooms!

8/10 Good

"Great house we loved it and would stay again. Our only complaint was having to buy a fan for the upstairs bedroom as it was extremely hot in that room and the ceiling fan was not pushing enough air."
