We have stayed here many times and it is always our first choice when visiting Nags Head. It is located right on the beach near Jennette's Pier. We always book the king or queen ocean FRONT room which has the balcony directly overlooking the beach with beautiful views. There are ocean VIEW rooms which are good too but have a side view of the beach. Room is always very clean, bed comfy, staff are friendly, and the breakfast is always great. I highly recommend!
