Amazing Anniversary Adventure
Exactly as advertised and more. Host was delightful and super responsive! Condo was very well appointed, especially the kitchen!! We actually lacked for nothing our entire stay. Stocked with linens, games, DVD's. Spectacular sunrise every morning from the elevated deck, it was so relaxing! We felt like the beach was our own personal space. Duck has such a cool beach vibe and is perfect for the party crowd and the family. We highly recommend the Penthouse!! Note to newcomers to the OBX - you can have some days with pretty steady straight line wind (10-15 mph), which is why the Wright Brothers chosen the OBX for their first flight. so bring a sweatshirt or windbreaker for the evenings.

Great view, clean condo, but needs some updates and changes
There are pros and cons when making a selection for your home for a week. The below is what is important to me and my family. 1. View 5/5 2. Cleanliness 5/5 3. Stocked kitchen 5/5 4. Pool 4/5 5. Safe location 5/5 There is room for improvement. I recommend updated appliances such as an ice maker and a stove without the electric coils. I find those stoves to be a fire risk for the guests and owners. I would also recommend updated toilets. The toilets appear to be the size for small children and not for average sized healthy adults. I would recommend purchasing a new mattress for the bedroom as the existing one is wore out and very uncomfortable. I would also recommend updating the decor and furnishings as all of it appears to be very outdated and not a coastal feel. If the above recommendations are made, I would return to this unit. As it is now, I will not.

Amazing!
What a beautiful location and a beautiful well-kept condo. Fully stocked with everything you would ever need. Super comfy bed and the recliner in the living room was perfect. And the view was spectacular as promised. Only downside as others have said are the 3 flights of stairs. Otherwise great!

Beachfront in a small town
The property was perfect for our stay. I had difficulty finding the property number, but that was due to vrbo itself. The condo is on the third floor, but it’s so close to the water, we didn’t mind. The kitchen was fully stocked and came in handy. We also enjoyed the use of having two bathrooms. Great stay, would love to visit again!

Nice place on Beach
The place was convenient, basically clean except for T.V areas and some of the lamps. In main room and bedroom. One of the best stocked pots and pans! Good places for Sunrise and sunsets The biggest downside of this home on an actual 4th floor was no elevator! .

Lovely condo with incredible view
This condo has a magnificent, panoramic view of the ocean and quick access to the beach. Very private. Accommodations were clean and exactly as described. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The hosts, Karen and Chris, were welcoming and even communicated with us prior to our arrival to alert us to the potential for early check-in. Great overall experience.

Perfect little getaway
I couldn’t have asked for a more comfortable condo for my private writing retreat. The views and sounds of the ocean were inspiring. The owner’s communication was perfect and I felt welcomed days before I arrived. Very personalized treatment.
