“Great place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2011
5
people found this review helpful

The Blue Heron in Nags Head is a family owned motel that is always clean but a bit dated. We have stayed there many, many times. The folks working the property are extremely nice and very friendly. Bring your own pillows as the pillows on our bed were flat.

Room Tip: We always try to get a room on the 3rd floor for the wonderful views.

I almost hate to share this "treasure"!! Friendly staff, convenient location, even the oven was clean in our efficiency!! And there was plenty of soap.

Room Tip: upper floors for view of the ocean

“Don't be fooled”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 November 2011

When we checked in we wondered about the dated aspects (the stove had push button heat controls) of the room. Everything worked just fine, the location is right on the beach, but I guess most places can claim that on the outer banks. The rooms are very large with lots of room to spread out, enjoy your home cooked meal and watch the ocean from your front window.

Word of advice- bring in your hairdryer, dish soap and shampoo.

We would definitely return. Great value, clean, comfortable and quiet.
