We all loved this house. The weather wasn't that great but we enjoyed our vacation just the same. We plan on renting this house for our 2025 vacation in August. Let me know the first date in August after the first week, and the rental cost with taxes. Looking to hear from you soon. Thank you, Barbara Jackson
Very beautiful house, nice bedroom set ups. Was very clean till looked under the beds or night stands. But there was vacuums on every level. Pool nice to have if my whole family could have gotten in and out. You have an elevator which is great but the pool has no stair railing to get in and out of the pool and itâs a huge step in and out. The outside bar area has bees and not the cleanest thing. Outside showers were very dirty and had poison ivy growing on it. View was nice except getting full sound view impossible with neighbors two big tall trees that block the view.
This place is awesome. The house is beautifully furnished and it is equipped with anything and everything you can think of. Makes you feel right at home! Nice views of the pond and golf green. We loved it!!!
We enjoyed our stay at the tranquil turtle immensely. With it's large and well equipped kitchen we were able to prepare large meals with ease. We watched the sunsets from the hot tub and kids enjoyed the heated pool. It's location in Nags Head was a great home base for our multiple day trips to lighthouses, fishing piers and Parks. We hope to return next year and continue exploring the area.
Our family stayed at Tranquil Turtle for a Spring Break vacation and we had a fantastic time. Major pros of the property: Plenty of room inside and outside for everyone to enjoy. Short 5-10 minute walk to the beach. We stayed in early April so temperatures were 60-70 degrees but the heated pool and hot tub were amazing if it's still too cool for the beach. Beautiful views of the sound, sunsets, and overlooking the 8th hole of the golf course. Great kitchen with ice machine, 2 dishwashers, and all of the equipment you could possibly need. The elevator was really convenient for getting all the luggage up to the 2nd and 3rd floors. Right next to the Nags Head Golf Links which was a great course. Location was great too with lots of restaurants and a super market near by, and about an hour drive to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, which was a really nice drive. We would 100% stay here again. Only recommendation would be if you have young children bring baby gates because there are a lot of stairs (we found a place to rent them about 1 mile away).
Plentiful of everything.
Love the design of the house. Unfortunately the elderly wasnât able to come upstairs because the elevators werenât working. So we tried to accommodate them.
The Tranquil Turtle was first-rate for our family vacation (4 adults and 4 teens). Lots of living space, everything sparkling clean, well equipped kitchen with everything we needed. The elevator was smooth and simple to use (and essential for one member of our family). The pool was closed (November stay) but we made good use of the hot tub and extensive decks. A minor problem with a door latch was fixed promptly. We have vacationed on the OBX for more than 15 years and this lovely home is one of the very best.
Great house Loved that majority of all bedrooms had their own bath. Very clean and decorated. Very relaxing. Loved the pool and hot tub. Will definetly stay again
Great location, loved the pool, sunsets from big back deck, very easy to use kitchen with all the gadgets, clean, bathrooms for each bedroom- definitely recommend!
Outstanding property. Better than advertised . Extremely clean. Kitchen utensils, pots and pans, everything you need to prepare a meal. Two dishwashers and separate ice maker. Property is centrally located for all activities. Would definitely stay there again.
We have been staying in the Outerbanks for the last 9 years and always have a different home. After staying at Tranquil Turtle we feel we have found the one we are going to return to. Kitchen is perfectly stocked, view is gorgeous, all the beds are very comfortable, the pool door alarms worked well to alert you to run away kids trying to go out without permission, covered porches on every side and level of the house. All the rooms were the perfect size⊠overall itâs the best home we have stayed at and we highly recommend it. Another perk is the neighborhood is quiet and on a cup de sac leading to a dock on the sound.
Our group of five families was very comfortable during our week's stay at the Tranquil Turtle. It was the perfect "home base" location from which to explore the Outer Banks. And the perfect setting to gather for wonderful meals cooked in the amazing kitchen at the end of busy days. We truly enjoyed every single day there!
10 of us gathered for a week to remember and share stories of a loved one. Ages from 2 to 89 and once again fell in love with our home island. The home was comfortable and spacious for us all. The idea of suites for everyone was the highlite with the numerous king size beds. A oerfect location with so much beautiful surrounding this home. An ideal week to play golf and bicycle daily.
Wonderful accessible house in a quiet neighborhood. This was our first time in many year not staying oceanfront but loved the back deck overlooking the golf course and view of the sound. House was well appointed and comfortable with nice light/views on the main (kitchen/dining/living room)level. Also loved the easy access to the sound pier at the end if the street. Would definitely recommend this one!
This house is beautiful and very large, the elevator in the house was perfect, the house could have been cleaned a little more there was trash and cigarettes butts on the deck, none of my party sat on the couch it was kind of gross the sauna did not work the day before us leaving the pool guy was cleaning the pool I think that should have been done before we got there overall the house is beautiful and the kitchen is fully stocked.
We had a fantastic time in Nags Head during the 4th of July weekend. The house was fabulous. We enjoyed all of the homes amenities and great location in Nags Head. We had an awesome time.
This home is beautiful! Exactly as described. Plenty of room for 14 adults and 3 Pre Teens!
We would definitely come back to this property. Please note there is major construction going on right next door. Since the houses are so close together the noise from the crew can be annoying. But we just closed to blinds on that side of the house and enjoyed the inside since it was off season (Thanksgiving). Also construction right across the street. So needless to say to view from the front was not too impressive. But the back is beautiful!!!
The house was equipped with plenty of pots for cooking. But no seasonings or little extras like foil or plastic bags do be sure to bring your own.
I cooked an entire Thanksgiving Dinner and was very satisfied with the quantity of pans available. And I am a cook so quality cookware means a lot to me.
The beds were extremely comfortable... all of them!!! Everyone said they tested well and didnât want to get out of the beds. The quality of sheets that were provided were top notch! And that is another thing that my husband and I are particular about is sheet quality.
The only thing I would add is a portable fireplace to the master on the Too Floor. The temp in there is only comfortable if you turn the heat on like 78 in the living area. Which is a problem if you have guest in that space then they will be too hot.
The house views of the pond and Ocean are good.. not right on the beach.. but you know itâs there. Simply beautiful!! We definitely plan to rent this beautiful home again!!
