The host was fantastic and the house was in perfect shape. Our original trip was postponed because of a hurricane. Stanimir was kind enough to let us have a different weekend blocked off because we were unable to access Highway 12 when we booked it. This stay was awesome. It was a very close walk to the beach and several food options. If I could give it 6 stars I would! 100% recommend.

Cute place to stay

Overall the place was great! We really enjoyed the private path to the apartment and how secluded the neighborhood was. We also loved the little path from the apartment to the beach. We will definitely stay here again if we are back in the OBX.

Great apartment for a couple

We coordinated our trip with friends staying at the KOA. This apartment was close enough to make meeting up for dinner/sight seeing easy. It is located in a very quiet neighborhood which we prefer over the noise of all the activity areas of the campground. The open room layout was fine for the two of us and the beach is within a sort walking distance.

Perfect Anniversary Getaway

My wife and I could not have been more pleased with our stay for our anniversary trip. The home was a short walk or bike ride away from beach access where we spent our days. In the morning my wife would wake up and ride a bike to get coffee and read some of her book. Then we would go to the beach and come home and grill our dinners. When we first arrived we had a few questions for Stan and he replied very quickly and was quick to help. We hope to return in the coming years. Thank you for everything!

Autumn in the OBX

Had a great three days/two nights in October. The weather was perfect, and the crowds were gone. The place is perfect for a couple: Convenient, spacious, clean, and comfortable. The beach is very short walk away and Hwy 12 is far enough away not to be heard. The only thing missing is an oven/stove if you want to eat in, but there is a microwave and toaster oven. We'll come back.

Great location!

The apartment is clean and comfortable. Great location to the beach. The walk maybe a little more than 2 minutes for us 65+ folks. Tons of amenities. We never noticed in the photos that there is no oven or stove. Stan offered to bake my breakfast casserole I had previously prepared for us! Thanks Stan for everything!

Outer Banks Mini Trip

My girlfriend and I did a quick three day two night trip to the Outer Banks. So we were looking for something quick, easy, and convenient to the water. This place was great! Not on the water itself, but just a few minutes walk to the beach. Required walking through a heavily wooded trail and then in between some beach homes, but by no means complicated or treacherous. The host were absolutely excellent! During our three days, we even ran into one of them in town, while away from the home. The only minor minor hitch, which I did not realize when I booked it, was that there is no stove/oven. There is a charcoal grill available for use around back and a microwave in unit, but that’s it. So if you were planning to cook food other than things that need to be grilled, you’ll be a little out of luck. Otherwise, you do have all the other kitchen amenities. Full fridge, toaster and toaster oven, etc. However, this was still a very minor inconvenience as we mostly ate out and/or grilled. I definitely give a thumbs up to this place if you think this would work well for what you are looking for!

Just what I needed!

This experience was amazing! It was quiet and I enjoyed riding the bike to get breakfast in the morning! Just a short walk to the beach. The place was very clean and super cute! I felt that it was in a good location from the northern and southern parts of the Outer Banks if you feel like exploring as I did! It was definitely a great little get away and if back in the area I will check for availability at this place again!

Perfection.

This rental unit is perfect in so many ways. First, the host is so attentive and responsive. Any question sent to him was replied within minutes. He made sure we knew where everything is situated and answered all our questions from initial reservation to check in to mid-week during our stay to check out. He made sure our every needs were met. Second, the unit itself is a self-contained modern studio apartment tastefully decorated. It has all the amenities from bath towels and basic toiletries to Wi-Fi and computer work station set up for laptops to heat/ac to kitchen appliances and coffee with creamer! Third, the beach is a very short 2 minute walk away. The path is located at the end of the cul-de-sac. The host also provides beach chairs for use along with bikes and canoe. If you’re looking for a nice quiet getaway to the Outer Banks, this beautifully decorated and amenities filled home away from home is perfect.
