Great place and location

We booked a short stay at this property for an opportunity to connect with family. We are familiar with the area but this location made our visit great. It is less than a block from the beach and there are several fun restaurants in walking distance. That made it easy to enjoy the time with 4 grandchildren and not spend too much time in the car. The rental was very clean, inviting, and thoughtfully furnished. We enjoyed our time there. Great porch with a nice view. The owner was quick to respond to a few minor details and questions. We hope to visit again sometime, perhaps for a longer timeframe. Highly recommend.

Great spot for a family vacation!

WOULD GIVE 4.5 STARS IF I COULD Overall, a great place to stay! We rented both units for a large family vacation and it worked out great. The location is excellent! It’s across the street from the beach and right around local restaurants, shops and everything you need. We comfortably fit 4 large family vehicles in the driveway which was nice. Raffaella was an excellent host and very accommodating and friendly. One big pro for us is that it was very kid friendly. Bunk beds, toys/games available, and the outdoor shower was a life saver coming back from the beach with little kids. It was also nice that beach chairs were available and some kid friendly beach items. The beach access right across the street is right by the life guard stand which was an extra plus since we had 7 kids with us. A couple of things we wish were a little better... 1. Cleanliness. It was decent but there were multiple dead bugs found, dirt/sand and items found in drawers from previous renters. 2. Clean up. Before leaving you have to sweep the floors, wash the towels, clean the dishes and put them away and put all the trash by the road. This seems a bit excessive when a cleaning lady is coming after. Would definitely stay again for another family vacation! Thank you for having us!

Excellent Property

This house was exactly as described. Location was excellent. In a quiet location and beach access just across the street. Communication with the owners was excellent. Although we didn’t need to contact them during our stay as all was. This is perfect property for two families. The upper and lower units were completely separate with their own kitchen and amenities. We would definitely stay here again.

This is a tough one to title. ☹️

Overall, it was a nice property. Sadly, the home was not checked before we checked in and it was FULL of dead flies. The only saving grace, was that the host gave me a quick response and had cleaners out there within the hour. We know it was some sort of strange occurrence, but if the house had had a walk through the day before, it could have been addressed prior to our arrival. 😔

Amazing Stay

This was one of my favorite vacations. The host is very responsive and the house was beautiful. The short walk to the beach was so nice and I felt very safe. There is also a little restaurant/bar on the direct corner that’s very nice and my son said the fish tacos were the best he’s ever had. I highly recommend this house for your stay.

Week Stay with Young Kids

Rooms were nice and clean, the bunk bed room had space for a pack and play for our one year old to sleep in so that was a big plus. The closest public beach access is really close but only stairs for beach access, so be ready to carry any beach wagons. Luckily the other beach accesses up the road both are both stairs and walkouts. Definitely looking forward to staying here again in the future.

In the heart of it all

Overall our large blended family had a great time staying here. It accommodated us all quite nicely and despite hurricane Debbie trying to dampen our spirits, we made the most of our time due to everything being so close (walkable and driveable). The beach was right across the street which was a huge win and we spent as much time as possible there during the day soaking up what sun we could and at night checking for ghost crabs and sea turtles. We enjoyed some family card nights and game time around the upstairs kitchen table and the kids enjoyed putting puzzles together. The beds were all very comfortable and allowed for some rejuvenating for the next day. The few little hiccups we had were quickly addressed and the hosts were incredibly accommodating and helpful.

Family Reunion Perfection

We had so much fun. The property was perfect for our large group. We rented both floors, but we were able to have meals together and hang out in the house and on the deck together. Because the beach is just a very short walk, we could hang out there all day and if someone needed to go back to the house they could. It was perfection.

Great Place & Close to the Beach

This was a great place to stay. As noted, there are 2 units, one is upstairs, the other downstairs. We came with two families and it was perfect. We had plenty of showers for everyone. The kids (ages 6-13) loved the selection of board games. We loved how close it is to the beach. We were able to walk to restaurants, shopping, and the post office without a problem. I recommend staying here if you want to be close to everything, including the beach.

The property was fairly clean.

We had a great experience and time in OBX. Easy check in and out! Everything was nice, most kitchen appliances you need was on hand. There was some bugs, we had a few in a group that wasn’t pleased with that, but I did contact the owner and they said they would send someone out. We didn’t understand that the top floor did not connect but it worked out. Over all a great time and everyone loved the corn hole game

Overall, our trip was a blast. House was big enough to accommodate all of us with plenty of space. Close to popular attractions and the ocean. The brooms to clean the floors could use a replacement. It might can benefit from a deep cleaning and organization of the games. The checkout process was easy to follow.

My family and I love this rental and will be staying here each time we visit. This was our first visit to OBX but definitely not the last. The owner is very helpful and the rental was clean, well stocked and very comfortable. Our adult children and grandchildren (8-18) loved going to the beach several times a day - only 300 feet away. Located near several restaurants, grocery stores and shopping for convenience and ease. If you are looking for a place to relax and enjoy the beach and soak up the sun this is a wonderful place to stay. As my granddaughters say 'my heart is in OBX'. Thank you Raffaella for sharing your rental with us.
