Perfect Vacation Property

We are a family of four and this was our first vacation innNorth Carolina. We were super lucky to come across this property, it made our vacation perfect. Beautifully decorated cozy house located pretty much on the beach. Very clean and practical with beautiful ocean views. Maggie is a gracious host, she responded within hours every time I contacted her with questions. Thank you for letting us stay at your house, we will be back!

The home is dated for sure but functional. A few negatives the stove only had 3 working burners, the drawer in the fridge was broken and missing a shelf. There is no hose at the lower level which would be helpful to hose off chairs etc. The toilet on the top floor chain would constant pop off. More attention to detail issues due to age / Maintence issues. The beds were comfortable. Overall stay was good but will look elsewhere for our next adventure. Thanks for sharing your home.

Thank you for the feedback--I did not know there was a problem with the stove burner and will address. There is a small crack in one refrigerator drawer, but it should not affect use. The home has had numerous updates but there is always something to do:)

A perfect view!

Our family of 4 loved our stay! Fantastic location - just a few steps away from the beach. The view (and deck) is amazing & feels like oceanfront. House needs some updating in the kitchen & bathrooms but excellent value overall. The owner (Maggie) was incredibly responsive to questions & immediately took action to resolve a fussy toilet situation! We took a day to enjoy the oceanfront Koru Klub pool as well as the hot tub at the house. It was great to have extra beach chairs & boogie boards to use when friends joined for a few days. The complimentary kayak is also a fantastic touch; however, we didn't have time to use. Don't forget to bring your own bathroom towels!!! We would definitely stay again!

Lovely beach house getaway

We had a wonderful week staying at the Crab Inn, right on the beach and within close proximity to restaurants and shops. The views from the top floor were amazing and the hot tub was a great bonus! A few things need updating and a few items need adding but otherwise a great rental property.

Perfect OBX Getaway

We loved our stay at Crab Inn. There was an issue upon arrival that the rental company took care of immediately. It has so much space for everyone and is well laid out. The home directly behind is a single story so the view from the upper deck is unobstructed ocean view with gorgeous sunrises. The boardwalk to get to the beach is right outside the side gate. The beds are SUPER comfortable and the linens and decor is a great aesthetic for a beach house, and a lot of things have been updated (floors, bathrooms). It had a fantastic supply of games, dishes, kitchenware, flip flops, books and beach gear. A lot of the beach gear has probably reached its end and needs to be replaced, but we were still able to use what we could and enjoy long beach days. There’s a charcoal bbq and kayak to use, the outdoor shower was very convenient. Plenty of space for food/drinks—including a mini fridge on the first level which made it super easy when using the spa. Lots of amenities that made our stay easy and relaxing. There’s even a telescope to watch the night sky from the deck, and a cute porch swing near the spa. There’s hooks for a hammock in front of the spa as well (no hammock though) We drove up and down the OBX and it was so nice to have this home to come back to and relax. Bring your own towels, and read the guest book for great suggestions on places to eat and enjoy!

Perfect spot!

We had such a perfect week! I was pleasantly surprised to find that the house was actually even closer to the beach than I realized. And the beach path is the most direct one. The deck view was amazing. The house felt clean. A few outlets in the master bedroom were not working so we had to move some things around. But not a big deal and you expect somethings like that when you rent at the end of the season, like we did. We loved having access to the Koru pool. Walks to ice cream were great. Would absolutely stay here again!

Great stay

House is steps from the beach - you walk out the side gate and you are already on the public walkway to the beach. Great location - a mile north of the pier. Nice view of the ocean from the top deck. Took advantage of the club koru membership that comes with rental by visiting the pool, which is directly off the beach next to the pier, several times. Plenty of games including a lightweight, easy to carry to the beach cornhole set. Maggie was very communicative in answering our questions. Door lock was tricky at first but if you pull the knob toward you while you turn the deadbolt it locks and unlocks easily.

Good beach house for family get together!

Very clean, great view from top floor, great hot tub, easy access to beach, and sufficient choices of restaurants, grocery stores, spas, and shopping within 15 miles. Maggie, the property manager was most responsive and had the flood light bulbs replaced within 2 days. We found the 72 degree temperature restriction on AC very uncomfortable for relaxing and for sleeping.

Perfect beach house

My family of six (five adults and one preteen) enjoyed a wonderful week at Crab Inn. Communication with Maggie (owner) was very easy before our arrival and I knew exactly what we needed to bring (towels, soap, paper goods). From the moment we arrived we knew we had picked the perfect house. The house was ready early and very clean and there was a starter pack of paper goods. The house is well stocked with quality kitchen tools, books, games and beach items such as chairs, beach blanket and umbrella. The beds were all very comfortable. If you prefer fluffy pillows perhaps plan to bring your own (I found them perfectly comfortable but others in my family mentioned they were a bit flat). The three main bedrooms are on the lower floor and are very quiet- and ensure that those who prefer to sleep in or go to bed early can sleep without being woken up by the rest of the party. The view from the top deck is picturesque and the Adirondack chairs are very new- I enjoyed drinking my coffee each morning while watching the waves. There is a path to the beach right next to the house. When we had an issue with the hot tub- we called the local property management company and they came early the next morning to fix it. The house has plenty of seating for the whole family and hooks for your towels and bathing suits. This was the best beach house our family has ever stayed in. If I had my own beach house I’d outfit/decorate it just like Crab Inn. Don’t hesitate to book!

Vacation 2021

Our stay at Crab Inn was very relaxing. The view from the top is fabulous! We sat outside a few nights with a star tracker app and discovered what the names of the stars were that we were looking at! So many stars! We did experience a few issues. Non-working outlets in the master bedroom and the ceiling fan in the living room just started to fall from the ceiling. It was hanging by the wires. It was addressed immediately the next day. Our host Maggie was terrific and available. That’s really important. Our only regret picking the week of June 5th is that the Koru Beach Club was not fully operational yet and we didn’t get the full experience. All in all a great week in the OBX!

Getaway to the beach

Great view from top floor family room and balcony. Everything in the house worked and it was very clean. Comfortable beds. Not everything is new in the house and the jacuzzi has a low hum even when not in use. Never ran out of hot water in showers. Overall, very comfortable and enjoyable. Short walk to good dining places. Short ride to supermarket. Unlimited activities available. We really enjoyed Diamond Shoals Seafood and the Pohouse. Bikes available for weekly rentals. Friendly vacation neighborhood!
