We had an amazing first time to the OBX. The apartment was clean and spacious. Less than a 5 minute walk to the beach, stores, and dining options. We loved being able to bring our pup. It was a wonderful experience and we will be definitely staying there again!

Great stay!

Our extended weekend stay here was great. So close to the beach and centrally located for our sightseeing in the area. The dual porch decks on second floor made it nice to sit in the sun out front in the morning for coffee then the evening on the back deck for the sunset and another cup of coffee.

The property was as advertised and was correctly rated by previous guests. The owner was very communicative before our stay. The unit was very clean. The kitchen well appointed. The kitchen and bathrooms were renovated but the rest of the unit keeps its old school charm. Noticed lightbulbs were out and water dispensed from fridge wasn’t not working. I only made note of this to the owner and it was fixed immediately. The price point for our October 11-18, 2025 stay was excellent. The unit is dog friendly. Just a block from beach access. The house is solid. We were there during a Nor’easter. Would stay there again! Would recommend to others.

Fantastic accommodation

We had a wonderful stay in Forever Paradise, it had a lovely and well stocked kitchen as well as two en-suite bedrooms that are perfect for a small family or two couples. Fantastic location, minutes walk to the public beach access but quiet and away from the road. 10/10 thank you!

Fun Times

Overall it was a good stay. The house is just like pictured. Beds weren't terrible. BIG bathtub was very relaxing. Could use another sofa or more comfortable chairs in the living area. The second bedroom has a tv but no streaming device had to buy our own. Location is great easy beach access and walkable restaurants we had to buy one

Wonderful stay in OBX!!

This was the best experience we’ve had with a rental so far!! It changed our minds about staying at a rental property in the future. This house was perfect for our family of four!! We had such a wonderful week there in OBX. Clean, roomy and such a beautiful house!! We enjoyed the porch in the front and it was such a short walk to the beach. It was in a good location so we had a short drive to all the things we wanted to go do. Joe was wonderful and so very helpful. We would definitely stay at the property again. Five stars all the way!!

Merriest Christmas!

I lost my dad in October. My mother and I decided we’d like to get out of town for our first Christmas without him. We used to come to OBX when I was a child and I hadn’t been in almost 40 years. So we decided to return for this Christmas. It far exceeded our expectations! My 22 yo son loved his first visit. We are already contemplating another visit. We felt so at home and cozy. And being able to have our puppy with us made it even better! Top notch! ♥️💚

Great location for beach access at Nags Head (less than one block from the nearest public beach access) and for quick trips around the town and Kill Devil Hills. The outdoor shower was really nice also. It was one of those times when the host and my family’s preferences lined up well from a host recommendation standpoint and we enjoyed almost all of the recommendations from Morning Cafe, to BootyTreats, to Jockey’s Ridge at sunset, to Corolla wild horses, the list goes on and on. The house was a great size for our family of 5 and dog friendly. There is also a dog park at the hotel next to the rental which was helpful. Harris Teeter and a number of food options are within easy walking distance also. Would definitely stay there again! Thanks!

Good Location

The property is very well-kept, but it was a shock to find out it was an upstairs unit. I did not see anything in the posting that mentioned it was an upstairs unit. Also, the driveway for the unit is very hard to find, and the GPS of the unit takes you next door with no way to connect to the property.

Very Pleasant and Well Lovated

We loved our week here- this upper floor unit is right across from the beach with a nice little yard and two outside porches. The beach access is right at the border of Kill Devils Hill and Nags head and the nags head side allows leased dogs all day all year—watch out for the hot sand and sand spurs though! We had our dog and worried he would struggle with the stairs to the flat- about 20 steps from ground level. But they were well maintained with railings and closed risers so he trotted right up and down.the place was very clean, nice and comfortable furniture and well equipped kitchen. We enjoyed the oversized tub too. Joe and lisa were great hosts- very responsive. We would come back!
