Great week on the beach in OBX!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay at A Big Catch! The location was perfect, so many shops and great food nearby (walking distance), Jack’s Burgers is a MUST HAVE. This home was spacious, beds were comfortable, pool was a good size, and the pool house was an added bonus as it was not featured or listed as a benefit/feature of the home. We especially loved the rooftop area over the pool house for hanging out at night. Beach area was clean. We loved the nugget that was available for the kids too, and the rollaway cots!

Fun week with family

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A big catch is a great house and very accommodating. Unfortunately, we had a couple of big problems. The grills were barely usable. We called about them and somebody showed up but the problem really was not resolved. Another rep showed up Friday afternoon telling us we’d be getting new grills. It was too late because we were leaving Saturday. In any case, we never got the new grills. In the middle of the week, the pool heater went off. In the past, Wednesday was the regular maintenance day. This time they showed up on Thursday and said the heater needed water so it turned itself off. Wednesday was the warmest day and we didn’t use the pool since the heater went off. $600 to heat the pool- We had no way to know why the heater went off! Since we enjoyed our time anyway, we did resign for next year. Hopefully we won’t have these issues.
Response from VrboOwner on 26 May 2024
We appreciate your feedback, Kara! We are sorry to hear about the pool heat. Per our listings, it only raise temperature 10° above the consistent ambient temperature (60° and higher) and the weather was fairly mild that week. Although the delivery was delayed, we are happy to report that the new grills have been installed and are raring to go. We hope we will have a change to wow you during your next visit!

The house was clean, but dated….the kitchen sink leaked and the air conditioner was not working on the 3rd floor, it took them a day and a half before bringing window a/c, which leaked in the one room ! Unfortunately we had rain almost everyday so we couldn’t use the outside very much!
