Perfect for family getaway!

It was our first family trip to the beach & the house had everything we needed to feel like home. The owner was quick to rectify any situations and answer questions. Close enough to walk to the beach - we are already planning the trip back!

Best house ever

This is the best house ever rented. The owners are very forthcoming. It is close to the Beach and the area is quiet. With the de ces backyard it is perfect for families with young kids. The house is well furnished and very clean.

Loved the Tiki Bar!

We had an amazing time at this house, and the owners could not have been nicer of more responsive. If you’re looking for a laid back town and neighborhood for an OBX experience, this is it. We loved going to the pier fishing and hanging out in the Tiki Bar in the evening. We will definitely be back next year, maybe sooner!!

Great Location

This house was perfect for us. The location near the pier and places to eat. We really enjoyed the view from the back decks. We could watch the fish in the pond and enjoyed a bit of fishing. Our bed was comfortable and the kitchen was great with wonderful windows all over the top floor. We will return.

So close to beach

Our family had a great time despite hurricane Debbie’s rain and wind everyday. We managed to catch some cloudy breaks a few days enough to enjoy the beach. The short walk to beach and pier with the beach cart was my favorite part. We were also able to take a few walks on the beach at night. We also loved the balcony views of canal and saw lots of turtles and jumping fish. You can see the sounds side and the ocean from the back of house also. We dined at Watermen’s. It was pretty good with a nice view of sound side and pier you can walk out on. We would definitely stay here again.

Dazed and Delighted

We had a blast staying at the beautiful Rodanthe Daze. The house had plenty of room for us and more. We enjoyed being able to sit at the table together for dinner or chill around the big flatscreen for a movie. It was easy to get to the beach from the house with many beach items available for use including a cart to help tote your things. Highly recommend this place and we hope to return!

Perfect!

The house was perfect! Kitchen fully stocked, comfortable beds and great location. We walked to the pier nightly. Our 4 year old enjoyed the arcade at the pier. The house has a fenced in yard in back which is good for the littles to play in yard safety. Under the house has good hangout spot. The added bathroom on ground floor was nice to have. A wonderful stay overall. Excited to go back next year.

Perfect home, great location

We stayed in this home with a group of 7 adults and 1 baby for two nights. The house is in a great location - an easy walk to the beach. The owner was wonderful - he met us at the house and answered all of our questions. The house was very clean and even better than advertised on vrbo. There was a pack n' play and high chair for our baby. We would definitely stay in this house again! We went to Waterman's for dinner one night - it's about a mile and a half from the house. It was delicious!

Beautiful area and property. Highly recommend. We will use again

What a beautiful place. The check in process was a breeze. The owner was fantastic to work with. The property was well kept and the perfect location. We enjoyed walking down to the beach every day and sitting in the deck in the evening. There was a road closure that delayed our departure and the owner couldn't have been better to work with. Next time we return to OBX we will return to this property as it had everything that my family and in laws need. 7 of us with different needs and and interests and something for each. Board games, TV's in each room, a kayak, tiki bar, bikes and walking distance to so many things. Best place to have peace and enjoy the beauty around you. Highly recommend.

Excellent property

Rodanthe days is a wonderful property. It is literally a 3 minute walk to the ocean in one direction and a three minute walk to the bay in the other direction. Sunrise and sunsets. The property has 2 kyaks which we made use of,along with a beach wagon to haul stuff to the beach. The house was spotless, a tv in every room,but the remotes were a bit confusing. The kitchen is well equipped, the tiki bar is a great hangout spot,especially after using the smoker/grill. Would definitely return to this property. The host is very acomidating and responded to any questions I had within a very short time.

Great Stat in Rodanthe

The pictures were accurate. House was clean. Host was responsive. The location was good. Not much was updated, but everything worked. The double deck in back is undersold by the pics. You can see the ocean and the sound from the top level. Walking to the beach was easy (~10 min with young kids/gear). Drive there in 1 minute with a complimentary parking pass. We like the area, despite the erosion on the beach and some shops being closed down. We had a great week. There was some toddler gear- a high chair and a baby gate and a pack'n'play stashed in one bedroom closet. However, if you're coming with smaller kids, the house isn't thoroughly toddler proof. Watch for loose posts on the deck railings, and wiley screws sticking up here or there.

Great choice for family vacation in outer banks

This is our first outer banks family vacation. We choose staying in the south part because it is more natural and less commercial. It fit our needs pretty well. The house is maintained well, has most of utilities for a family (nice kitchen and bedrooms, washing and dryer are powerful), convenient to the beach, there is a river at the back of the house where you can see many turtles. We got a little inconvenient during checking in, we contacted the owner and got response pretty quick, the owner refunded us the cleaning fee due to checkin delay. The TV is hard to mange, we spent time to try to figure out, but then give up. The internet speed is good, we just use our iphone and iPAD instead of TV during our free time. Overall we had a great time in outer banks and surround area. If we visit outer banks next time, we will definitely consider this place.

Fantastic Location

Perfect size with my husband and I, daughter, husband and 2 1/2, 5 yr olds, son and wife. Bunk bedroom is on second floor with living area, kitchen away from other bedrooms. Well equipped kitchen. High Chair! Great cart provided to haul items short walk to beach. 2 outdoor showers. Loved having pier passes! Pier staff helpful outfitting old rod and reel. Fun watching/feeding turtles and “flying” fish in pond(?) behind property. Ice cream (Ocean Gourmet and gifts-have kid size!), seafood (order steamed shrimp at Alex’s, Austin’s is great-scallops, shrimp, flounder, tuna steaks they vacuum packed to bring home but closed Sat/Sun), other necessities (Dollar General) all within very short distance. Walk across to restaurants, entertainment. Wonderful week!! Thank you Melanie.

Paul and I are from New Kent, VA. A small, historical county snuggled right between Richmond and Williamsburg VA. We have vacationed as a family in OBX for the last 25 years, and are excited to have the chance to share our love for OBX with other vacationers.
