5 out of 5OBX paradise
December 14, 2012
Extending a business trip, I traveled alone to the OBX. This was a perfect choice for my relaxing getaway. Loved the quiet atmosphere, wide porch and comfy chairs, quick walk across the dune for morning beach strolls. Perfect spot!

The people who work in the Inn are like old family friends. The rooms are charming, spotless and well-appointed. Delicious breakfast. Nice to have chairs and beach towels provided. There's nothing like sitting on the wide veranda and enjoying the breeze. At night there's a different magic atmosphere. I love this place. If you are beaching it alone there's no place better than here. Sadly the other historic hotels have gone by the wayside. The location is perfect, too, with less congestion than further north.

Stayed 2 nights in room 10. Actually our 2nd stay at the Inn and in room 10. Loved everything about First Colony from the courteous staff to the clean equiped rooms. Quiet and quaint but close to all attractions. Keith and Julie - Gloucester, Va.
4.4 out of 5A Lovely Stay and a Great Value
April 02, 2009
We had a love stay at the First Colony last summer. The Inn itself is a charming historic Victorian with wide porches that catch the breeze. The location is perfect - 1 block from the beach and close to all major attractions. Nag's Head itself is much less crowded in the summer than the more popular northern end of the Outer Banks. The rooms were exceptionally clean; the staff was friendly and helpful; and the breakfasts were delicious. We were also happily surprised by the extra amenities such as free beach chairs and umbrellas, free boogie board and passes to the local Y with it's indoor pool, fitness center and child care. We will definitely be visiting here again
