Amazing location

Incredible beachfront location and a stunning house with breathtaking ocean vistas! It's conveniently close to the pier. However, the house could use some updates, and it would be even better if more essential amenities were provided. Overall, we had an excellent time during our stay.

Location is Key

This was the final family vacation before our oldest kid headed to college and we wanted to do something special. We decided to spend a bit more than usual and get a place on the water. This place is exactly that, it's location is amazing, especially if you're like me and surf, as you're right at a great break (lefts and rights). We loved the seclusion and quiet of Rodanthe, too. With that said, there was a lot about the house that didn't seem commensurate with the premium price. Maybe I was a bit more aware of some of these items given our budget-stretching, but there were some items that I thought deserved pointing out. In no particular order: - No ice maker or filtered water in the fridge. - No garbage disposal in the sink. We love to cook, this was a big nuisance. - Loose deck boards and rusted deck screws. Wear shoes on the deck (but oh, what a deck!!!) - Screened-in porch is missing a screen and is sparsely furnished with cheap, plastic chairs and a table. You're not really able to be comfortable out there. - There is no master BR with its own bathroom, only one Queen BR with a jack-and-jill bath and another Queen BR with a separate, shared bathroom. - Only the main floor family room and kitchen is updated. The first floor, where all the bedrooms are, is very dated but certainly adequate. - The house sways in the wind. Maybe this is normal for houses on stilts but I did inquire to our neighbors, also renting, and no one mentioned their house moved.
