Hotel recommendations for Nags Head (Outerbanks) NC

<p>In August we will be visiting friends in Raleigh and we would like to spend a few days in the Outerbanks. From my research, it seems that Nags Head and Kill Devil Hills have the most hotels. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Many of these hotels have negative reviews posted online - I don’t know what to believe. We don’t want to rent a house since we will only be there 3-4 days.</p>

<p>We stayed at a great place called the Sanderling Inn in Duck on the Outer Banks. It was kind of pricey, like a B&B but hotel sized. If you can afford it, that is a great choice. We only spent 2 nights there, then went someplace cheaper, but it was great. This was quite a few years ago, I assume it is still there…</p>

<p>As a kid my family stayed at the Cavalier Motel EVERY YEAR. It was wonderful. DH and I went there shortly after we were married & it was just as nice. Haven’t been there in years - but I just visited their website and it looks just the same. CavalierMotel dot net. It sits right on the beach.</p>

<p>You might be able to rent a house for a partial week if you wait until the last minute. Make your hotel reservations, and make sure you can cancel them. Then, the week before you arrive, call one of the rental agencies on the island and see if they have a house for 3-4 days. Some owners would rather take four nights than leave the house empty for a full week. Obviously you have to be flexible with location, and you better have the hotel as a back-up just in case.</p>

<p>I have stayed at the following in fall of 2006:</p>

<p>It was an older hotel, but right on the beach. I also advise that you visit TripAdvisor and read current reviews:</p>
