Every year we stay in our favorite room. This place is still a good place to stay but it seems the cost of reservations are getting too high every year. We understand everyone needs to have a cost of living raise but it is almost to the point where we cant afford it. We always stay in May before the... More

We have been staying here for about 6 years now. It is a great location with easy beach access, and 2 pools (indoor and out) plus a hot tub. The pools are nice when you have kids and need a break from the beach. This is not a 5 star hotel - it is a great value with clean rooms... More

Great location - can't beat the short walk to the beach. Rooms were clean and nice. Indoor and outdoor pools were awesome since we were vacationing with a 7-month old who couldn't stay out in the sun all day. Breakfast was OK, could use some variety. Desk staff were polite but could be a bit more friendly. Wifi was patchy... More

We picked this hotel based on recommendations on Trip Advisor. Our room was nice and clean and we had a great view with three different balconies. The staff was helpful and it was fun to connect with other guests at the free wine and snack hour. The hotel is centrally located too so you can easily get to anywhere on... More

We chose this hotel based completely from tripadvisor feedback. I'm a chain hotel type of girl and anything else...well it's a bit scary. Turns out I had nothing to worry about. We checked in around 5:00 and were pleasantly surprised to find wine and a few light snacks available at check-in. The room was extremely tidy and well-maintained. We had... More

We were just at surf side, excellent continental breakfast, great indoor pool and hot tub, plus very nice outdoor pool with plenty of cushiony lounge chairs. The beach is right there and we rented chairs and umbrellas for $25 a day. It was wonderful, my teens felt comfortable walking around by themselves .

We liked our balconey room with a side view of the ocean--it was large and very clean. Staff was friendly and helpful. The property is well taken care of. Many hotels in this area of the Outer Banks have become very expensive, and often don't live up to their prices, but the Surf Side has kept it's prices reasonable. In... More

These guys took us in after a NC 12 highway closure cut short our stay further south in Cape Hatteras, and it turned out to be a great stay! Our hotel room was right on the ocean (and I mean RIGHT ON the beach, see photo below), and provided a great finish to our stay in the Outer Banks. The... More

Took a chance and booked this place having never stayed or been in Nags Head. We lucked up on many aspects. This appears to be an older hotel they are trying to upgrade and maintain. They have the nicest balcony and pool furniture I have ever seen in a hotel. They are very friendly and helpful. We arrived before our... More
