We loved everything about our stay here. The property is even better than advertised - spacious, beautifully decorated, so comfortable...you can tell this isn't just an income property for Hilary and David but a true passion project. They love this home and want their guests to love it too. So many thoughtful touches, even including what I came to think of as the "magic junk drawer" in the kitchen where if you found yourself needing something (the charger plug you forgot to bring, a battery, a magnifying glass), it would "magically" appear there. The location is amazing. I don't think you can get closer to the beach anywhere else in Rodanthe - those ocean views from nearly every spot in the house were a miracle. Being next to Rodanthe Pier we just loved - we visited often. The people there, including the owners, were SO friendly. In fact, when my car battery died the day we were to check out and I asked Hilary for a recommendation of who to call, she called the owner of the pier, who had someone over with jumper cables almost before we were off the phone. ;-) David drove down HOURS the day we checked in to double check on the pool and hot tub system, as the maintenance person had told him there MIGHT be an issue (easily solved, and David was so cheerful and kind as if he hadn't just driven hours for a 20-minute once over to ensure our holiday was perfect). Again, you can tell how much they really care about their Rodanthe home and the comfort of the guests who stay. 3
