“Dolphin Oceanfront Motel in Nags Head wins points for its beachfront access and the manager's responsiveness-our broken A/C was replaced without delay. While the rooms lean toward the smaller side, the overall location is hard to beat. For pet owners, the reasonable pet fee is a definite advantage.”
