We had a blast at Angler's Retreat and found this to be the perfect house for our large group, with guests of varying ages and abilities. Manish was an excellent communicator and incredibly kind and accommodating when a nor’easter disrupted our original vacation plans. The industrial ice machine was super convenient, and the pool heat worked great! The main downside is that beach access from the house is not really feasible due to the steep dunes and fence barrier. The house could use some updates, but nothing that interfered with our stay. Overall, we had a wonderful vacation and truly appreciated Manish’s hospitality!

Thank you for staying with us. We are glad the house suited a group of mixed ages and that the pool heat and ice machine earned their keep. We appreciate your honest notes on beach access and updates, and your patience when the nor'easter changed plans.

We had a wonderful time during our stay at Anglers Retreat. The cleaning people did a great job once they arrived. Beds were comfortable for great nights sleep after busy days at the spacious beach. The views from the top floor were amazing.The Management team were very responsive and showed great communication. Answering all our messages quickly.We did have a glitch in check in as the cleaning people were late to arrive, but once they showed up they did an excellent job cleaning the house. We were allowed to use the pool while we waited and store our cold food in the refrigerator and freezer until the house was ready.The house is in need of some updating but overall, it is a nice place to stay and we would recommend Anglers Retreat.

Thank you for your review! We’re glad you enjoyed your stay and the beautiful views. We appreciate your patience with the check-in delay and are happy our team was able to assist you. Thank you again for staying with us and for recommending Anglers Retreat!
We did enjoy our time at this house. We had people from 90 years old all the way down to one year old. It was nice and spacious where everyone had their own rooms and bathrooms which is important to us. I did notice that somethings needed some repairs and the house was not as clean as I would expect for something with a 20,000 price tag.It was nice to have the yard in the back since we had a dog, although many of the boards on the fence are falling off, as well as some bad boards on the boardwalk. We love the swimming pool.Overall, it was a good space for the number of people we had.

Each issue you reported, the pool ladder, the blind and the shower handle, was acknowledged within minutes and sent to maintenance the same day. Cleanliness, fence boards and the boardwalk were never raised during the stay, so we had no chance to address them. - LuxStayUSA

Family Reunion in Nags Head NC - Angler’s Retreat
The house was absolutely perfect. It handled 14 people easily with 8 bedrooms - all with private bathrooms. The amenities were outstanding, especially the pool, swim up bar, theater room and game tables. The kitchen was a chefs dream - double oven and double dishwashers! LuxStay was in touch regularly to ensure everything was perfect. I highly recommend staying with them!
A comfortable home in a good Nags Head location. Clean, quiet, and easy to enjoy. We were pleased with our stay.

Second time staying here, this time with friends, and it was just as amazing. The oceanfront views never get old, the house is spacious and well kept, and all the amenities were in great shape. The pool was a favorite spot for all of us. The host was friendly and responsive. Would happily stay here again!

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
Pictures weren’t 100% - accurate. Cleanliness was an issue.The oven, microwave, and hvac vents looked like they hadn’t been clean or filters replaced in months. The bathrooms were dirty with hair on the tiles, floor, and walls. The liners in the showers were covered in mildew and mold. The utensils were dirty and the table had a sticky film over it. One grill was missing a propane tank and they both were very dirty. The pool was dirty when we arrived, and all of the pool and beach equipment was thrown in the corner with many of the items broken or with missing pieces. The fence had multiple damaged or missing planks. Additionally, the boardwalk was damaged with a significant hole someone could fall through. For the price we paid on this house, I expected better amenities like shampoo and body wash receptacles filled, hand soaps available, etc.We did complain and the management company did their best to provide us with bath mats, a new microwave and sent over a cleaning crew. However, the cleaning crew stated they weren’t able to clean the stoves due to the dirt being between the glass in the ovens. It also was awkward to have 12 members of our family in the house with a cleaning crew. I understand these houses are turned over quickly but this house needs a VERY DEEP CLEAN and repairs.

Your day-two list received a reply within the hour, and bath mats, a new microwave and a cleaning team followed. The fence, boardwalk, mold and pool equipment concerns were never reported during the stay, and we would have acted on them at once. We cannot resolve what we are not told about. - LuxStayUSA

Property was lacking in soap, shampoo, toilet paper and could have been cleaner. Bed collapsed first night leaving us without enough beds. Fence had gapes so dogs keep escaping. It was not a good experience.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that parts of your stay did not meet expectations, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify a few points for future guests.
As outlined in our listing, we provide starter supplies upon arrival, which were fully stocked at check-in. Additional items were requested during the stay and were promptly provided as a courtesy. We also accommodated both an early check-in and a late check-out as a goodwill gesture to support your holiday plans.
Unfortunately, one bed experienced an unexpected structural issue on the first night. Despite the Thanksgiving holiday, we arranged for repairs and had the issue resolved the very next day to minimize disruption—something we take pride in handling quickly, even during peak holiday periods.
Regarding cleanliness and the fence, the home is professionally cleaned prior to each stay, and we were not notified of any concerns during the visit that would have allowed us to address them immediately. The fenced area is described in the listing as a partial enclosure and is not advertised as fully escape-proof for pets.
While we were surprised by the overall assessment given the accommodations and responsiveness provided during the stay, we remain committed to transparent communication, responsive service, and continuous improvement—values reflected in the many positive reviews from other guests.
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Outer Banks property. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The home was spotless, well-maintained, and beautifully laid out, making it perfect for relaxing and spending quality time together.The location is fantastic — close to the beach, local attractions, and great restaurants, yet peaceful enough to truly unwind. We especially loved the easy beach access and the calm, coastal vibe that makes the Outer Banks so special.The property was fully equipped with everything we needed, from a well-stocked kitchen to comfortable beds and plenty of space. It felt like a true home away from home. Any questions we had were answered promptly, and communication was smooth and professional throughout.This is the kind of place you look forward to returning to at the end of the day — comfortable, inviting, and stress-free. We would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting the Outer Banks and would absolutely stay here again.The property looked recently painted and redecorated with new furniture.Thank you for a fantastic stay!

We recently stayed at this stunning oceanfront property in Nags Head, OBX, and it was absolutely perfect. The house boasts a theatre room and game room, which were huge hits with our kids. The cleanliness was impeccable, and the private boardwalk to the beach added a special touch to our beach days. The elevator was a convenient plus. Our host, Manish, was excellent in communication, making our stay seamless and enjoyable. Highly recommend this property for families looking for a memorable beach vacation!

Thank you so much Nazneen, it was a pleasure hosting you.
Our stay at this oceanfront property in Nags Head was unforgettable, especially because it provided the perfect setting for my daughter's birthday party. The open space was ideal for hosting, allowing us to arrange a beautiful celebration with the ocean as our backdrop. Additionally, the 6-person theatre room was a hit among us, offering a cosy and intimate setting for Netflix sessions after the day's festivities. These unique amenities, coupled with the stunning location, made our stay not just a vacation, but a memorable event. Highly recommended for those looking to add a touch of luxury and personal celebration to their beach getaway.

Thank you so much Rupam. It was a pleasure hosting you.
This was our first visit to the Outer Banks. We enjoyed visiting the Wright Brothers museum as well as other activities and of course the beach and private pool. The house wasn't cleaned and ready when we arrived but they responded quickly with extra help and did a good job cleaning and getting the house ready. Fortunately we were able to enjoy the pool area while waiting. Otherwise, the house was nice and spacious with adequate bedrooms and the large kitchen, dining and TV area. The large dining table really worked well for us. The bedrooms were comfortable and most have an adjoining bathroom which is nice. The pool and grassy area was great to have with the kids. We would stay here again next time we visit the Outer Banks.

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed your first visit to the Outer Banks and made the most of the Wright Brothers museum, beach, and private pool. We apologize for the initial delay in getting the house ready but are pleased that our quick response and extra help ensured you could still enjoy the pool area while waiting. It’s great to know that you found the house spacious, comfortable, and well-suited for your family. We look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit to the Outer Banks!
Beautiful home obviously located in an ideal area right on the beach. Inside, the house was great. Outside, some of the boards needed replacing by the pool and path to the beach. The primary complaint is that the home was not ready for check in when we arrived. We had to call the management company to send the cleaners. They came and had the property cleaned roughly 2 hours after the original check in time. This wasn’t an ideal start to the trip, but the manager issued a $100 refund for the inconvenience. Overall, recommend staying, just confirm that the check in process will meet your expectations.

Thank you for your honest review and for recommending our property despite the initial hiccup! We’re glad you enjoyed the beautiful beachside location and the home’s interior. We apologize for the check-in delay and appreciate your patience while we resolved it. We’ll review our cleaning schedules and make sure this doesn’t happen in the future, and we’re grateful for your feedback on the outdoor area. We hope to welcome you back for a seamless experience next time!
I chose this rental for a family Thanksgiving trip and paid much more than my budget allowed for because their site boasted a “heated pool that was good for year round use.” I even inquired with property management about heated temperature and was told 80 degrees. Great! I was so excited for my 4 grandchildren.I was also billed close to an additional 400 for the pool heating.Upon arrival, the outdoor garbage cans were overflowing near the front door. The entry system was broken and we couldn’t get in the house for 30 minutes.The first thing I did was go check out this incredible heated pool. SHOCKER…The pool was dirty, about 20” below skimmer baskets and ice cold. My phone call was met with we don’t heat this time of year and they would still charge me if I left. They did refund the heating bill, but clearly did not care.There were two gas fireplaces that did not turn on and they sent out the lawn caretaker to repair who couldn’t figure out how to make them work. No fireplaces.Outdoor fire pit littered with twisted tea cans.Foosball in basement with no ball.All games missing most of their pieces.Not one sponge, dish towel or trash bag.There are 4 previous reviews before mine. Two of them work for the private management company that handles this property.They offered me less a 740 refund IF I would leave a 5-star review.I have stayed at many VRBO and have never experienced such misrepresentation. Hope this honest real reveal is helpful.Allison

Allison, we appreciate your feedback, though we strongly disagree with the misrepresentation of events. From the moment you arrived, you repeatedly expressed that you had paid more than your budget allowed and demanded a full refund, despite staying for the entire duration of your reservation. While we strive to provide excellent service, we do not trade money for reviews, nor do we accommodate refund demands that are not justified.
Our team went out of their way to address every concern you raised. When you mentioned missing consumable items, we immediately offered to purchase them for you at no cost, but you refused to let our staff deliver them. When you reported issues with the fireplaces, we dispatched maintenance—even on Thanksgiving Day—to assist, but unfortunately, the issue could not be resolved during your stay.
Regarding the pool heat, we were upfront about it being a seasonal add-on, and once it became clear that heating was not possible, we immediately refunded the charge. We also addressed the entry delay as soon as we were notified.
It is disappointing to see claims that do not reflect the full context of your stay, especially after we extended multiple resolutions to ensure your comfort. While we welcome all feedback, we will not be pressured into providing refunds or compensation in exchange for positive reviews.
We remain committed to hosting guests who appreciate the quality of our homes and the effort we put into their experiences.
