"Nicest I've found in OBX - I really enjoyed staying at the First Colony Inn. I've had occasion to travel to Nags Head 4 times for overnight stays in the last two months. First Colony is my favorite thusfar."

"Very clean, nice rooms. Close to the beach. Overall, great experience. I plan on coming back soon! "

"Very nice historic building with clean and comfortable rooms. It's just across the street from the beach and near a lot of different restaurants. Not for people who like to sleep in, though. As an older building, you can hear people walking above you or outside. The rooms don't have curtains, so it can be quite bright in the morning."

"Our first stay of many more to come! When we checked in, the warm hospitality given to us was instantly a home run - the staff was so friendly and excited to have us ... the personalised print out of a welcome letter and the wine bar was spot on after a five hour drive from! The room was amazing, with plenty of room we had a separate day bed for our son and so well decorated, the antique furnishings were a definite charm! The breakfast was amazing, it was really well presented, the food was delicious and just the right amount and most importantly the young lady serving us was just so precious and kind - she really took great care of the family and had such a wonderful attitude! When we misplaced my wife’s wedding ring, they all took such great care of us, help us search the entire place until we found it - all that extra hard work from the staff and they all kept a positive attitude!

"Road Trip 2020 - Great stay and the facility was an awesome experience. "

"We love coming here for our first nights stay before our vacation home is ready. We beat the traffic coming down on a Friday vs. Saturday. The rooms are great, love the Happy Hour and breakfast in the morning. I love sitting in the rockers with my coffee or wine. People here are always pleasant and helpful!

"Love the charm of this place! The grounds are amazing, relaxing and well-maintained. The rooms have all you need and are very quaint, accentuate the time period.

"Great customer service. Beautiful place, quick walk to the beach,a few miles from the center of town. Would recommend. Rooms : 5/5 | Service : 5/5 | Location : 5/5 … More"

"This place was amazing. I didn't know what to expect as this was the venue for a friend of mine's wedding. I was told to book a hotel room here, this is where the event was going to be held. I did as I was told. However, upon arrival (late Friday night) the property was gorgeous. This is a bed and breakfast feel with the professionalism you'd expect at any hotel/property. The rooms were comfortable, the decor was perfect and the upgrades were new, but with a classic look. The food and staff were great and I would highly recommend this for a weekend getaway, a week vacation and if you're looking to get married in the area... this is your place."

"We had a wonderful stay at the First Colony Inn! Comfortable rooms, very clean, and great amenities to use such as bikes, beach chairs and umbrellas, etc. The breakfast and wine/cheese hour were great touches, and the staff were so friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back!"

"Great place to stay. Very historic setting. Rooms are very clean. Staff is very friendly. They even brought cheese, crackers and wine up on a fancy tray to our room when we arrived. The breakfast was absolutely amazing. The grits were my favorite, they had sausage and peppers in them. Never had anything like it. Can I get the recipe. PLEASE! I would LOVE to try and make it myself."

"Great location, view, beach access, service and nostalgia"

"My husband and I stayed there for 2 nights in January and we were highly impressed with the excellent service from all the staff. Kanda and Melissa were friendly, helpful and made us delicious breakfast even thou we were the only ones in the hotel since Januaty is their low season. The room was amazing, original and clean. Easy access to the beach. Just an amazing and relaxing time. We will definitely come back."

"Wow. My girlfriend and I LOVED the First Colony Inn. The Inn itself is gorgeous and rustic with modern touches. It looks and feels like a top-quality inn with a deep and vibrant history. We loved the amenities (bicycles, beach chairs, umbrellas, outdoor rocking chairs, the awesome library, etc.). Our room was surprisingly large, comfortable, and seemingly noise-proof (as we couldn't hear the crying baby next door until we opened our door). The bed was perfect. And between the desk, the comfy chairs, and the table, there was plenty of space to spread out. The bathroom was really small (maybe the only negative), but not a problem. Finally, the front desk staff was super-friendly and hospitable. We'll definitely stay again."
