Very clean and comfortable, just across the Virginia Dare Trail from the Glidden Beach access. The king size bed was quite comfortable, and the small loveseat was adequate for watching TV on rainy afternoons and evenings. The kitchen was small with the basic tools needed for a weeklong trip for two people. The Dunes restaurant is basically right next door, and the outlet mall is just across the highway. The communication was clear, friendly, and proactive. I was particularly grateful for that when we inadvertently locked ourselves out and Lisa came right away to let us in. This is perfect for a stay in Nags Head, and I look forward to a return visit!
Salt & Light: Charming Contemporary Studio, Dog-friendly and Close to the Beach!
Our stay was great! The host was very accommodating and took extra time to ensure a meaningful experience. We loved our trip! We would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a dog-friendly, close to the beach place to stay at OBX!
The apartment is in a great spot, short walk to the beach, near restaurants and shopping. Well taken care of and clean. Appreciated being able to bring our two dogs. We would definitely stay there again!
This is a perfect location to get to any area of the outer banks.The property manager sent very good recommendations for places to eat, which is helpful for a visitor. Great shower!I missed not having a closet but the dresser accommodated most of my items. Best of all, a great beach less than a block away.
Stayed here over Labor Day Weekend with my girlfriend, and this place is so convenient for the beach (a 2-3 minute walk directly across the street) or for other activities up and down OBX. The only thing I might suggest is more utensils for those who prefer eating in rather than going out to eat. Otherwise, I would happily stay here again if I'm in Nags Head in the future!
We had a great time in Nags Head. Our stay was comfortable and as expected, per reviews and descriptions of property. Recommended for only one or two people. Easy access to beach!
This was a perfect studio apartment directly across from easy access to the beach. It is on the quieter end of the beach as well.
The hosts were very helpful with recommendations for places to eat!
Several dead cockroaches upon arrival. We then noticed several other ones during our stay and had to leave early because we did not feel comfortable staying another night. You can hear the neighbors above you too.
PROs - Location, location, location. Off the main drag, but without road noise, and walkable to public beach access, Jeanette's Pier, restaurants and shops. Fairly clean, and convenient having a kitchenette and some dishes. Helpful that the TV swivels for viewing from the dinette and from the bed (since you can't really watch it from the couch). Great that we were able to bring our pup, and there was a small grassy area out back. The mattress was comfy. Complementary gift certificate for 1/2 dozen Duck Donuts was a nice touch.
CONs - NO Soundproofing to speak of. If there is a tenant in the upstairs rental, You Will Hear Everything. Every footstep, discussion, television show...and loudly. Our dog was concerned, thinking strangers were trying to break in (much barking ensued). Very little sleep while they were there (first night). Apartment clean and appeared to be fairly recently updated, but the place had an underlying scent - worn and tired, like damp basement and old ashtrays. The bedspread has seen better days. Modestly appointed kitchenette; dishes were sparse and there was little mismatched cutlery. Had trouble navigating the Roku and a message to the host went unanswered, but we finally saw instructions on the back of the channel guide and figured it out.
All in all, a decent stay for the price, like going to a roadside motel from the 70s that has had a cosmetic makeover. It's okay, but we won't be back.
We had a great stay for the weekend. The apartment was great for the 2 of us and our boxer. We ended up leaving a day early on Saturday. It was suppose to rain all day. We will look at staying here again on our next trip to Nags Head.
