Great location, short walk to the beach

It was very hard to find a property so last minute for my sisters bachelorette weekend since we had to cancel her original one inn April due to covid. We were delighted to have found this little cottage and it was perfect for the girls weekend.

We arrived before the pool season. We rented Saltaire 11, with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a full size kitchen, and a full size screened porch. The interior had everything that we needed (except maybe a dishwasher). The staff offered us a gas grill to cook our ribs. The entire cottage appears completely repainted and refreshed. Fresh linens, comfy beds, comfortable living room and dining furniture and board games for the children. A TV was in the living room and each bedroom. We look forward to coming back next year! The staff was very accommodating and delightful and seemed like old friends.

Location!

Can’t beat the location. Not the newest property but the unit was nicely appointed and included Keurig and many kitchen/bath starters, such as shampoo, conditioner, kitchen soap/sponge, paper towels and linens. Steps to Arts for breakfast and/or cocktails. Beach was directly across the street—2 min. walk. We’ll be back!

If I could give this place 6 stars I would. Charming and very clean. We liked the old obx atmosphere - with a nice update. Great location with ocean views. The pool was refreshing with ample chairs. There’s a crow’s nest with pergola. Screened in porch on cottage 11 was spacious enough to have dinner outside and still have room to hang towels. The property was well kept. There is private path to the beach is directly across the road. Amanda was friendly and easy to communicate with. We talked with a couple staff at various times and they were super pleasant. We will definitely stay here again.

Girls getaway

Property was perfect. Beach access directly across the street. Pool was nice too. Plenty of room for six of us. Our best times were on the screened porch. Only downfall and was no big deal. The kitchen could use a few more pots pans and bakeware. Property owner was always emailing to assure all was okay. Property manager Mike was exceptional! He was very personable and assured we had all we needed. He was always walking around and cleaning the grounds and the pool area.

No dishwasher, no washer dryer in unit. Showers old. Uncomfortable beds, squeaky floors, doors stick all in all not my type of place. A rip off for the money! Perfect for college kids!

The quaintness of this Cottage is wonderful. Very clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed. The staff was very friendly and readily available. The pool is perfect. And the walk to the ocean cannot be beat. No steps to climb to get to the water. Also, there is an ice cream shop on the same side of the road as the cottages, about a one block walk, that we walked to each night. We will be back.

Best location

This was a great little cottage. Lots of sleeping space. Walk to the beach in a minute or two. Nice pool with fun floaties and bubble machine. Close to everything. You could drive to grocery stores or restaurants within 5 minutes. My only complaint would be the wifi. It was very weak. I would say if you are someone who can't live without wifi, then you would be very sad. The stand alone shower in the second bathroom was tiny. Everyone in my family just took turns using the shower with the tub. There were no curtains, so light flooded in at night, and the sun woke us up every morning at 6:30....not a problem for us, but if you're a light sleeper or like to sleep in, you might not be happy. My mom hung beach towels over her windows. We loved it, and would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay!

The place was very clean, check in was very easy, and they provided everything that we needed! We only had to buy food! Our favorite part was the screened in porch. The children stayed on the porch for hours and did not come inside until we made them at 11pm. We knew that they were safe since the porch has a lock on the door. The adults went out onto the porch at night to enjoy the sound of the waves. I definitely recommend this place and we will be returning!

Great summer beach getaway

We had a wonderful time at Saltaire. The cottage was clean and comfortable, the welcome bag was great. The access to the beach and the pool were very easy for us. The kids had a great time eating on the big porch. There is an incredible cream shop and a great restaurant around the corner. It is in a great location where you can walk to many things. Just bring quarters for the laundry as there aren’t any available at the local banks! Fun summer stay at the beach!

First OBX visitor

Property is a little dated but looks like it was recently painted and nice new flooring. Towels and linen were crisp and smelled freshly laundered. Kitchen is very sparsely supplied- okay since we ate out for most meals. Great short walk to beach. Owner was nice to work with and communication was quick!
