“Old Fashioned Charm”

Reviewed 20 May 2013 NEW

Hubby and I planned a few days down at OBX, and liked the look of First Colony. The building is really old, the floors do creak, but rooms are large and breezes abound. Breakfast is self served each morning, w/a variety of cold and hot dishes. We haven't been around for afternoon happy hour so can't comment on that. We... More

“Great stay in Nags Head!”

Reviewed 12 May 2013

We stayed 2 nights at the First Colony Inn. We stayed in room #15 (Jane Jones). The room was very large, clean, and comfortable. We took in their happy hour both days which we enjoyed. The only thing we were just a little disappointed with when compared to the B&B we stayed at the previous night was the breakfast. The... More

Glad to hear you enjoyed your birthday getaway! I was in on the cake surprise... we can provide all sorts of goodies with a little lead time. Sometimes people even call and give us an order over the phone to surprise a friend or relative staying with us.... We sort of walk that fine line between "Inn" and "B&B", so... More

“Charming Hotel on the Outer Banks”

Reviewed 28 April 2013

This is a lovely charming hotel with very nice people. My room was large and comfortable. I did have a little trouble adjusting the heat, but it was me and the odd hours we were up during a photo workshop. The breakfast was a real one, with lots of choices and quality food. Even better - one morning when I... More

“We will be back!”

Reviewed 26 April 2013

We stayed for 2 nights at the end of a road trip through North and South Carolina. The First Colony Inn is lovely. Our room was spotless, the breakfast was great, lots of choice, the included afternoon tea was a pleasant surprise, wine and munchies! Easy access to the stunning beach about 2 minutes walk. The front desk staff suggested... More

We appreciate you taking the time to post a review! Yes, the walk to the beach from our private access is an easy one... and during the summer we make it easier by providing lightweight beach chairs and towels to take over. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed our restaurant recommendation- I always encourage guests to let us know what... More

“Historic place for a special occasion!”

Reviewed 4 April 2013

We stayed at the First Colony Inn for a weekend when we were celebrating a milestone anniversary and we could not have asked for a better place. The rooms are quaint and tastefully decorated. We stayed at Room 11 the Margery Harvie room. The room was very spacious and had a 4 poster bed with a additional day bed. Our... More

Thank you for the fantastic review, and all of the lovely descriptives! Our pool is open Memorial Day to Labor Day, and a little longer if the weather holds. The next time you stay, please make the staff aware of your dietary needs- we'll be happy to make you something different if need be...no problem at all. Warm Regards, Sarah... More

This was our second visit to this wonderful place. We love the location, the decor, And the atmosphere. Going again, you bet! I am told I need to write more, so here goes. Although this inn is not located directly on the beach, there is a short, pleasant walk to the beach. Be sure to drop by the small cafe... More

We're glad your second stay with us went well, and hope your third, fourth and fifth do as well! The cafe next door recently came under new ownership, and we try very hard to support our neighbors and fellow businesses....so we're happy to know you enjoyed them as well!

“First Colony...First Rate!”

Reviewed 13 March 2013

This was an anniversary weekend. We were only at the First Colony Inn for one night, but fell in love with the warm graciousness that carried us back to another era. We stayed in the Payne room and had a great view of a rather turbulent ocean. Cocktails and snacks in the late afternoon and a very nice breakfast to... More

The First Colony Inn was great. We stayed a few nights for our 20th Anniversary and they were simply wonderful. Although it was off season this was one of the best places we have ever stayed. A great time and great people.

We're so glad to hear that you had a great anniversary! We love special occassions, and feel honored when we can be a part, however small, in them. Please come again when you can! Sarah Close General Manager More

“Great stay at a great price”

Reviewed 21 January 2013

When we arrived, the young lady at the front desk was so very helpful and accommodating. After a long day at the wedding expo, it was nice to be greeted with a smile along with some scrumptious snacks and my choice of wine or mimosa. Although the room we requested was under maintenance, they upgraded us to a spacious, very... More

Thank you for your review....we're glad to hear you survived the OBX Wedding Expo. Whew! It was a long couple of days for us as well, but we sure had fun.

“Perfect for walking on a January beach!”

Reviewed 10 January 2013

We loaded up with long underwear, boots, knit hats and gloves just in case. January is not high season in the Outerbanks of North Carolina. We like old hotels and this one looked perfect. Every time we walked out, I felt we had stepped back in time. Our third floor room was very private, with a super king bed, microwave,... More

You are correct~ January is certainly not our high season! There's something about coming in the winter, though, that can be very peaceful. We do offer comfy duvets, heated towel bars, and an indoor pool down the street at the YMCA to make our guests feel cozy this time of year. A building of "a certain age" this close to... More
