Recent North Carolina Coast guest reviews

Everything was excellent. Will only book through Vacasa in the future
Shelley S. | Dec 2024
Took my 85 year old dad to the beach for Thanksgiving. This condo was PERFECT! All 1 level, no stairs, which can be challenging to find when most homes/buildings on the coast are elevated. Condo was perfect for someone with mobility issues. It was clean and decorated nice. Beds were comfy. Neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. We couldn’t have been happier and plan to book again when we return!

This is my 7th year spending a week on the Outer Banks of North Carolina in December (for the cheaper rates and also the quietness )and this house was my 2nd time booking. Last time was like 3 years ago and since then the owners have put a metal roof on the house, new siding and a new hot tub which was I thought much larger than the previous one. Jets on the new hot tub were really nice.The house had no issues of major concern that I noticed although the sliding doors in the upstairs bedroom going out to the deck were a bit difficult to slide but maybe just needed some lubricating or adjustments. Kitchen was sufficient including everything that I needed . I take a friend with me each year and the rooms that I do not use I usually shut the doors and leave a note for the cleaners just as a heads up to let them know nothing was touched in those rooms. It's just a courtesy that I do when booking these homes. I did notice a few bulbs on the outside that should be replaced as they were out. I like the surround sound theater room which I did use 3 years ago but did not use this time but watched the TV in the living room. Heating system (not fireplace) was adequate but , as always , heat rises so I turn the ceiling fan on low in the downstairs living room to disperse the air/heat. It's open with a balcony looking down into the living room. If I had to tell the owners on future improvements or upgrades It would be in the downstairs bathroom . Only other thing that was not working was the upstairs jetted bathtub and you could not turn the jets on for the tub because the knob was off. It does have a shower though for the tub. It's an "oceanfront" house so short walk to the ocean and it has multiple decks to see that beautiful sunrise in the morning. Deer are all around and you see them just standing in the yards. But I plan on booking this house again for December 2025 for another week.
