"Great service in a super location. Enjoyed our mini vacation very much. Very quiet and close to so many things, food, shopping, parks. "

"The First Colony Inn is a magnificent experience! The quaint rooms are opened by old fashioned metal keys! We had a queen room, and by chance got the screened balcony which was such an added bonus! The First Colony Inn seamlessly blends the past and present through the room stylings that include flat-screen TV, air conditioning, mini fridge, and more while utilizing framed items and furniture to give it the feel of the past. Only one point that made me just slightly sad was that the pool closes at dusk (assuming because there are no lights on it) and I'm a huge fan of night swims. But that is not enough to make me give this wonderful place anything less than 5 stars!"

"A gem of the outer banks! Wonderful staff, incredible history, and beautiful grounds. If you’re looking for a hotel chain type experience, this is not for you. You are staying in a historically preserved Inn, which is a privilege in my opinion. I’ve been several times and have no plans to ever stay anywhere else when visiting the outer banks. I learn a new piece of interesting history each time I stay here."

"What a wonderful stay. This charming Inn is filled with so much character and history. We have already booked our next stay! Rooms: The rooms are so cozy and well decorated. I love that each piece sticks with the history of the inn, and hasn't been "modernized" for the sake of people-pleasing. Our room had a week working ac unit to keep the room cool in the hot summer months."

"I could go on and on about how much I've loved my stay here. I was here for two days and the staff was wonderful and so was our room. It was very comfortable; and my favorite parts were the library, the breakfast, and the gardens. The library was such a small, yet quiet spot and I spent at least half an hour reading in there! The breakfast was SO GOOD---especially the German Egg Bake!! The staff were so sweet and welcoming; always asking us friendly questions whenever they saw us. And the gardens were just gorgeous! It rained on our last day but everything still looked beautiful. The chairs outside and the wraparound porch were the best spots to sit and read or just watch the sky. The flowers everywhere were just the perfect touch on top of it all. Definitely staying here again next year!"

"We had the most amazing weekend at the First Colony Inn. We stayed on the third floor in the Agnes Wood. The room was spacious and we loved the screened in balcony. I loved how quaint and charming the inn felt. The breakfast was amazing! Far beyond the normal hotel breakfast. The pool was much larger than it appears in other photos. The lady at the front desk was very welcoming and kind. The property is well maintained and everything around the inn was clean. We will definitely stay here again!!"
