Exactly what we expected! Clean, functional, and listen to the waves all night. Great location close to Rodanthe pier. We got some beautiful sunrises. Saw a lot of great surfing. We will be back. My only suggestion for improvement. The outside charcoal Grille needs some TLC but other than that everything was perfect.
Youâll get a better shower with the hoses by the car.
- 50% of the blinds were actually working/still together
- 2/3 of the shower heads shot water at you literally like a garden hose. The last one you didnât want to touch for fear the head would crumble out of the wall.
-50/50 shot if the toilet/drain in the shower drained. The rest of the time, the toilet would just run.
- AC died during the middle of the trip one morning, maintenance showed by the afternoon and said they contacted AC service. All day, no one came. Maintenance came back at 9 that night with only three window units. One room abandoned and living space unusable during heat.
- AC service showed up at some point during the next day
- Left side staircase was unusable and covered with overgrowth. Gigantic orb weave spider the side of your hand blocked the bottom entry to the staircase. You had a better chance to navigate through the fire ant infested sand to the other staircase while passing the land of forgotten/rusted toys and beach gear that may or may not give you tetanus
- Coffee maker leaks all over kitchen counter. Assuming the one on top of the kitchen cabinets did the same and was banished there.
- Giant stain on the carpet to the living room
- Hot tub cover disintegrated into the hot tub⊠bits of blue pieces make a fun puzzle to pull out of the tub for the kids
- Ceiling of master bedroom is just randomly coming down
- If you want the same experience of vacuuming without actually vacuuming, then use the sand blaster 3000 that shoots sand everywhere
The location canât be beat! We enjoyed sitting on the deck listening to the waves when we were not on the beach. Downside was the maintenance of the home. Kitchen and bathroom cabinets were all in disrepair. One of the kitchen drawers had fallen in on the lower one. I saw this mentioned in a review several months ago and it still had not been addressed. No screens on the door walls and most of the windows. Floors and windows were not washed when we arrived. We enjoyed our stay but were surprised that it was more run down than we expected. The furnishings are great and comfortable. We did not use the hot tub so I cannot comment on that feature.
