Top Nags Head Hotel Reviews

Seahorse Inn and Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"What an incredible value. Clean, comfortable rooms (A/C worked better than any I've ever encountered), friendly, efficient staff, fantastic location. You simply can't beat the price for what/where you get. Perfect for our needs. I'd book again."

Tar Heel Motel

8/10 Good

"The room was clean but the use of a high fragrance cleaner gave us a headache. Thankfully we were able to air it out a little. We never came in contact with staff. The property was well maintained for being beach side and the rooms being newly renovated was pleasant. For the price and what we got it was very fair."
