Very good

This house is a great location and has lots to offer, beautifully decorated, and well kept by the owner. We had no complaints. Easy walk to the beach too. Lots for kids and adults of all ages, great yard for playing games too.
What a perfect home and ideal location for our multi-generational family vacation! We choose OBX this year as our destination and were lucky enough to find Jewel of the Isle. Bright and open living space with three floors offering entertainment for everyone. The elevator proved very handy and the hot tub was a welcome relief after a day of exploring. Only steps to the beautiful beach, even less to the community pool and gym, and so close to Duck Donuts!!! (which ended up being a daily visit) The awesome local shops, restaurants, and fresh veggie stands are so close. No car is needed here!

Location and size of home is very nice. This home easily accommodated our family of 15 without using one of the master bedrooms. Very close to beach. Nice pool.
This property was perfect for our large group. Very close to the beach,
The check in process was seamless. The kitchen had more than enough dishes, pans, serving dishes. 2 dishwashers, 2 sinks and 2 large tables to accommodate our large group. The bottom floor game room was used frequently. The pool and hot tub were perfect and the volleyball court provided hours of fun. We didn't have to use the club house, the weather was perfect, but it was also very clean. We would definitely stay in this beautiful home again.
The rental experience was very positive, with ease of communication. We did find the dishes were not clean. House was lovely!

Overall property was nice and spacious. It had some issue's, none of the bathrooms were cleaned properly, 1 bathroom had hair in the tub, a shower curtain had mildew on it, there was dirty dishes in with the clean ones, dishwasher did not "Clean" properly, the upstairs fridge took 3 days to actually get cold. It would really be nicer if it had some major upgrades, the wifi wasn't connecting properly and for a 8 bedroom home, that sleeps over 20 people the wifi should be better. One thing that made my family a little bit uncomfortable was the fact that the homeowners had family pictures throughout the entire house. We thought it was strange to have your families photos for strangers to see. Furniture was very uncomfortable, couches and beds.
The property images are accurate. All rooms are large, clean and comfortable. We were a large group and having multiple living spaces was a huge plus. The house is super close to the public beach access and local restaurants.
We booked this trip as a replacement vacation during these crazy times. We ranged from a 9 month old to my 96 year old grandfather. I was worried because the house was still available at such a late date. We were pleasantly surprised at the condition and location of the house. We were 3 houses from the beach access. The house was close enough to walk back and forth for all our children. They would walk back for lunch or a quick swim in the pool. The house was also close to the town so they would walk or ride their bikes in each day. The property was everything we were looking for and one that I would use for my next trip to Duck... and I hope that will be soon.
First time using VRBO easy to use, helpful with questions. Will use again.

Great house!
This house was great. Very short walk to the beach, pool, hot tub, plenty of space. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because you have to bring everything - from hand towels to hand soap, dish detergent, toilet paper, paper towels, they didn’t even have salt/pepper. Usually rental houses at least have cooking spray. Just be prepared for that and you will be good!

Refrigerator out, no light or exhaust fan in first floor bathroom, grill very dirty and low on propane, cheap beds in 2nd floor bunk room that squeaked every time you moved. One girl had to sleep in hall all 7nights.
Nice location, but to many "open" repairs needed. Paramount Destinations needs along with owners and get thing better.
Only one cutting board and dull knives.

Reviewer Comments:
Not as clean as it should have been. Appliances and grill were not efficient or in good working order. Pool was much too cold to use. Linens inadequate. Wifi problems and septic backed up which should not have happened if maintained properly.

We had a fabulous vacation! The location is unbeatable (unless you want to be ocean front and pay those prices). Loved being close to the beach and easy walk into town. Also loved being so close to the club house! Th echo use is great! Needs a little TLC, but this is understandable for a rental that is getting so much use! The pool was awesome and we enjoyed the hot and volleyball court too!
We would definitely rent this house again!!!
Thanks for all the great memories!!

The house could use some upgrades...fresh paint, new carpet, etc. We also felt like the house was not as clean as it could be. The first night there we had to clean cob webs from the light fixtures on our dinner tables. Kitchen needs more more serving dishes for big dinners.

Reviewer Comments:
Let me start by saying the property has a tremendous location to the beach access, indoor pool and community center. It is also just a short walk to Duck with its many shops and restaurants. The interior of this house is nice and spacious and in good shape. On the other hand, the exterior and pool area need some attention. Some paint, new pool furniture and a larger grill would go a long way in improving this property We enjoyed our stay very much and would stay again with improvements.

Reviewer Comments:
Good location and very large house that works for a big family. Furnishing in main room lacking chairs and bar stools at proper height for counter. Pool liner needs work. Grill is very poor and too small for a house that holds so many people. Rugs were could have been cleaned. Umbrellas around the pool are needed. Very sparse furniture on the decking around the house. Check in time can be as late as 6 pm and we were told we could not even go to put cold food away by the management after we were on the road traveling for 7 hours( not a good start to our stay).
We will rent it again because of the size and location.

We had a group of 20 spanning 3 generations, this house had something for everyone. The house was well appointed, the kids loved the pool and volleyball court. The location was perfect, steps from the beach and a short jaunt to the center of town.
