Fantastic!
It was excellent until the other renters came in the adjacent town house. They were loud and we could hear everything. The complex was nice. Provided some outdoor amenities: a spicket to rinse feet from the beach, volleyball court and corn hole game.

Everything was just as discussed in the contract. Clean, up to date, and a beautiful view. The only issue that I have is, the contract states that you can reserve the same time the next year when you check out. When I called the office the reservation person doesnât apparently understand what her company has in the agreements, must need more training on rentals. This is the third year with this company and never had this issue before.
This house had everything you want to appreciate the obx. Close enough to great local attractions. Great beach front property. Amazing sunrises. Highly recommend.
The house has a better view of the beach than the listing shows , so that was a wonderful surprise . The house is private but close enough to everything, very convenient location. Definitely a great place to stay.

Beautiful oceanfront rental. Close to restaurants, grocery stores, and Duck Donuts. You can drive to surf spots or surf in front of the townhouse. This is our second stay and it has recently had upgrades (change in bed size, kitchen). We love this place. Plenty of space for a family of 4 but there was plenty of room for additional guests.

What a wonderful location!! A beautiful home with all the expected amenities and thoughtfully furnished common spaces and bedrooms. We had a great time at the beach, at home. The location is also close to all the activities on the outer banks. Perfect beach vacation !!
This unit has the best location in the complex, it's right on the beach with an amazing porch that overlooks the ocean. It was clean and well stocked and the beds were comfortable. The only slight issue was the thin walls between the it and the adjoining unit. It wasn't bad but you knew you had neighbors.
Great location! Comfortable home with excellent views!

Our family loved this home! Oceanfront and beautiful views from the deck. Close to shops and restaurants (awesome seafood!!), too. Fun things to do in the area with young kids. Dowdy park was perfect for breaks from the beach. They also loved the aquarium.
Overall was good but we were not prepared for the number of stairs in the unit and the handrails that only went part way. We feel that somethings should have been in place i.e. no toilet paper in the unit when we arrived or hand sanitizer.

The porch up to the sand for an ocean view can make it hard to want to leave this beautiful place and all the comforts of home make that easy to rent for a staycation!We enjoyed a great week in one of my favorite places and the price made this my first oceanfront rental in OBX. Nice home with three bedrooms has plenty of room to spread out and the short distance to Kill Devil Hills makes it convenient. We enjoyed a sunset boat ride with a couple of local men who shared some interesting information about the area and spent a day in Manteo at their great aquarium (make reservation before going) and the Elizabethan Gardens. Always enjoy a ride to Corolla and a visit at the Whalehead Lodge near the lighthouse there too.
Great view and great location to beach. A little bit of a walk to get to beach but not bad at all. Appliances all worked well. The only critical comment is the place really needs a vacuum sweeper to clean up sand. We swept with broom and got about 2 cups of sand off floors when we arrived. Other than that it was an awesome place. They must have been having problems with AC but had 4 temporary window units installed. Worked very well.
One other issue is we paid for the linens but they did not arrive until we called the next day.
We've stayed at other properties in Dunes South and this one earns 5 stars for location. You can't beat the view from the top deck and beach access is only a 30 second walk. The beach was clean, uncrowded, and conveniently located between two piers that offer food, activities and sights to see. The house could have used a little updating but if you aren't bothered by a bit of wear and tear it will do just fine. The property is also a duplex so you'll have to keep the possibility of having neighbors in mind. The house offered everything we needed for cooking. We opted to not rent linens and just brought our own towels and sheets. Pillows and comforters were still provided which was a plus. Overall great stay for our family and we look forward to renting again in the future!
The house was nice, however the house was not cleaned very well. I was told that housekeeping was very short staffed, but there was dust in the air conditioning vents amongst other places and sand in some of the beds. I did call the rental place and they said that they could send someone over to clean, but i had told them that i had already cleaned what needed to be cleaned. I cleaned and did laundry on my first day of vacation, which I was not expecting to do.

Very nice.
The property manager was great. They responded quickly to the issues we had. The cleanliness of the house was terrible. There was pee stains on the matters covers on the majority of the beds. It was so bad that we had to sleep sitting on the couch the first night. The floors were sandy and gritty. The cold air return on the second floor was filthy. The stove top had food on the burner that had not been cleaned off. There was dust on the TV screen that made it hard to see the program. The deck had a board pulled up with nails sticking up. I tripped on the board and almost fell. The washing machine was making a terrible noice. We called to have it checked out. The agency was given permission by the owner to have it checked, no one ever showed up to fix it.

Loved the house, and the views it gave! Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Very quiet area. Only issue be it a minor one was that they redid some of the decking boards and the nails were still sticking up which hurt if you didn't have your flip flops on. All the amenities were there as advertised! Beds were very comfortable!

Carolina Shores is a terrible property management company. You will regret staying anywhere that they manage. Do yourself a favor and keep looking. We rented linens but they weren't there when we arrived so had to call and have them delivered after a long day of driving and wait for them to be delivered and they were still missing bedding for one entire bed! The linens are garbage! Terrible and horrible quality. Don't waste your money- go to Walmart and buy new. The place was dirty. Sand all over the floors and no vacuum to clean it. After our stay we diligently cleaned and gathered all the linens and then were charged another $175 for a supposed dirty bed bug protector- which was never there in the first place! My son had a tiny cut on his foot from a blister and got a tiny amount of blood on the comforter, so they charged me to replace it! Easily cleanable by anyone else. After our stay it took me months of fighting with the company to address these issues only to finally after many unanswered emails have the head of housekeeping tell me no, you're not getting your security deposit back. Never in my life have I dealt with such terrible customer service and unprofessionalism. STAY FAR AWAY!!!
