We had an awesome vacation in this home. We loved the pool and the house has all the amenities you could need and is super close to the beach. Very clean. Plenty of yard for the dogs. Beds are comfortable. We would definitely love to come back!
This was our second year returning to Island Time. The houseâs proximity to the beach is incredible, loved the view from the deck & my kids loved the pool. Communication with the owner was a breeze & we canât wait to book our 2026 vacation. Thanks so much!
The home was so comfortable and beautiful. The location and distance from beach was perfect! We played ping pong, corn hole, and used the pool every day. Looking forward to coming back!The owners were so accommodating and on anything we needed. Who could ask for more??!! Thank you again.
The home was exactly as listed. The layout is perfect with plenty of space inside and out. It was very clean and well kept. We used a local company that delivers and picks up beach chairs, beach umbrella and beach cart. This was a great way to haul everything back and forth to the beach.
This is the 3rd time my family has stayed at this house as it never disappoints! The house has plenty of space and most everything you'd need for your trip. We especially enjoyed the pool this year as it was so hot and the pool was so refreshing. It is so close to the beach (1-2 min walk), so you can go down to the ocean for a bit and back to the house when you need a break from the sun. The decks are wonderful and we enjoyed the views. Overall, I would recommend this house for location, amenities, the awesome owners, and affordability. Thanks for another great stay!
Island Time was just as great as all of the other reviews stated! Quiet location close to the beach, and convenient to grocery shopping for your week's needs. The house is clean, well decorated, and the beds are comfortable. Probably the most well-equipped kitchen I've seen in a house that size. Steve was super-responsive to messages, and had our one minor issue resolved within an hour. Absolutely recommend!
We loved our stay . The area is beautiful and the house was perfect. Had everything we needed
I would đŻ stay here again. The house is like being at home . The beds are super comfortable. We were able to bring our little dogs and had our very own pool , which was so nice and a hop skip and a jump from the ocean . Also the local coffee shops and restaurants are very close .
Wonderful location, especially if you love the beach because beach access is at the end of the street. Gracious and responsive host. Will definitely return in the future.
We had a wonderful family vacation renting this home. It is close to the beach. The house has everything you'll ever need to make your Rodanthe visit the best ever. The owners are lovely and very easy to contact. They are on top of everything do everything to make your visit the best. The area is very laid back and close to great restaurants.
We had a wonderful stay. We loved Island Time, it was perfect for our family of 6 and doggie. We loved the pool, hot tub, decks, and chairs. Also, labeling the light switches is brilliant!!! We had a perfect vacation and everyone had a great time!!!
We had a wonderful week staying at âIsland Timeâ. The house was perfect for our family (3 adults, 2 kids and 2 dogs) and the proximity to the beach was unbelievable. The views from every deck were breathtaking, my kids loved the pool, little details in the house were a pleasure to witness and communicating with Steve was effortless. Thanks for a great week. We will definitely be back!
We arrived a little early and contacted Steve via VIRBO and he informed us that the property had been cleaned and allowed us to start our vacation before check in time. This is huge if you have two young kids who have been in the car for a long trip. One of the hot tub deck steps came loose and he had it fixed the next morning. I would say reviews of the house from previous guests were accurate and if youâre looking for a quiet beach house, this is a good one. There are great ocean views on most of the deck. The pool was pretty private and provided a nice spot for everyone to hang out. There were three adults and two children on our trip and we felt that we had plenty of room. If Iâm ever back in Rodanthe, I would book this house again.
House was well stocked with kitchen accessories: plates, cups, silverware, utensils, etc. Bedrooms and bathrooms were comfortable and had all that was needed.
Beautiful view with good seating from the many decks.
Great pool area, fenced in.
Short walk to ocean.
Highly recommend for small families looking for a cozy home feeling!
Nice houseâŠsofa was in need of a good cleaning but not unexpected in a property that allows pets. Beautiful and well-stocked kitchen. Great pool and hot tub (although maneuvering the hot tub cover on and off in the small enclosed porch is very difficult)! Easy beach access and better views than we expected. Homeowner quick to respond and very pleasant!
Even though this location is technically not on the ocean; it sure feels like it. We loved sitting on the deck watching and hearing the waves crash on shore.
The kids were in the pool twice a day. Beds were comfortable; kitchen is recently updated and has newer appliances and well stocked with silverware and plates for our family.
Steve was very good with communicating and answering questions.
Overall; we were very happy with our first visit to OBX and will return again.
What a great house and a great location, 90 second walk to a wonderful beach. House had everything we could have wanted with 4 spacious bedrooms. Pool area was awesome! Private and sunny!! We had one minor issue that I only mention because the property owner responded IMMEDIATELY and had it resolved for us with-in an hour. We could not have been happier with our choice and are starting to plan our return trip!
Thank you, Steve and Debra.
It's challenging to find a house that allows dogs, with a private pool, close to the ocean. While a little cramped, the house ticked all the boxes for an affordable price. The walk to the beach is actually comparable to many beachfront homes with long private access. We had a few minor issues during our stay but the property manager was attentive, polite, and helpful with any questions.
