A Perfect Multigenerational Retreat – Comfortable, Convenient & Thoughtfully Designed

Our family of 11 (from 5 mos to grandparents) had a FANTASTIC stay at this beautifully designed and well-furnished home. Nick and Sarah were excellent hosts, responsive and helpful throughout our trip.The well-appointed kitchen made cooking easy, with multiple coffee appliances and an extra fridge in the game room—perfect for drinks and snacks. We loved that linens, bath towels, and pool towels were provided, and the beds were already made!The elevator was a game-changer, making every level accessible for those with mobility concerns, parents with infants, or carrying groceries. The heated pool and jacuzzi were a highlight, allowing us to relax and enjoy the space despite cool March temperatures (55–63F).Beach access was incredibly convenient, perfect for long walks, sandcastle building, dolphin watching, and beachcombing. While the ocean was too cold for swimming, the peaceful setting made up for it. The quiet roads were ideal for long bike rides, offering a great way to explore.This home is perfect for families, multigenerational groups, and outdoor enthusiasts, offering accessibility, comfort, and entertainment for all ages. We highly recommend it and would love to return!

Great area , close to 4x4 beach access

Probably the best communication from a host we’ve ever encountered. The cleaning crew was slacking but at no blame to the host. Perfect stay otherwise.

Fantastic property for family vacation

Stayed here for a week with our family and another family. 4 adults and 5 kids under 7. The kitchen was well equipped. One of the days there was cold so we stayed in and made some play dough. We were able to make plenty of meals.I spent some extra to heat the pool and I wasn't sure how well it would work since many other houses said they couldn't have their pool heated that early in the season. The heated pool absolutely made the trip. We had a slight drizzle and the pool was great. It was fully stocked with toys and even some floaties for our little ones. I accidentally sent the pool heat fee twice, and within 15 minutes of receiving the second payment, the owner contacted me to let me know and refund the money.On our beach day, the beach closet was fully stocked with chairs, toys, and activities. Our friends brought some of their own stuff, but they didn't need to. The outdoor foot wash and shower were great to avoid tracking sand into the house.The outdoor yard with some swings and yard space was great for the kids to run around.The house is a bit smaller than it appears in the photos, but the dining table was huge and we were able to fit everyone. I picked this property because the furniture looked good quality and I was very pleased. Everything was solid and very comfortable.We also didn't have a million chores like some other places at check out. And they sent us a guidebook online, and it gave us some great recommendations and fun ideas.Honestly, hospitab

Beautiful Home with everything you need for a great vacation!

The house was impeccable, the hosts extremely kind and responsive. We had everything we needed to have a wonderful time. Th kitchen is very well equipped with two a Coffee bar. I think my adult children were most excited about that. We had a member of our group with a physical limitation, so having an elevator was wonderful!! If you stay at this home you will have a wonderful, relaxing and comfortable vacation. Recommend 10/10 and we have been going on an annual vacation to beach/lake homes for 16 years so I know of what i speak, :-)

Beautiful stay

My family and I stayed at this property for a week. Nick and Sarah had excellent communication and responded promptly before and during our stay. The house was beautiful, the pool was a good size, a shopping center was close by and the beach wasn’t too far away. The walk from the house to the beach was about an 8 minute walk at a moderate pace. The reason why I didn’t give 5 stars all around was because some of the sheets on the bed looked dirty.

Sunkissed

What a great house! This was our first time to the Outer Banks. It was so fun exploring new places. Nick and Sarah were wonderful hosts! They supplied us with so much information on where to go and what to see. And, they were very responsive! The backyard is great! The weather was a bit chilly a couple of days but the heated pool made up for it. It was a short walk to the beautiful beach. The house is very well appointed and made for a very comfortable stay. It’s hard to pick a favorite spot in the house but I would have to say the screened in porch and the crows nest. 😊 I highly recommend Sunkissed and we look forward to visiting again.

Vacation rental

The vacation home itself was very nice and accommodated all our needs. The maintenance to the outside of the property could be improved as there was trash on the ground around the back of the property, and it appeared that it had not been picked up from prior rentals. Also, the distance to the beach is rather Inconvenient if you have any physical problems walking distances. Our group particularly enjoyed the arcade.

Decompression time

Every year a group from my company gets together with some family members and we rent a house. Summer is our busy season and we're getting ready to go into or slower time so this is our way to decompress. We are a group of all ages and we have a blast doing this. This home was perfect for what we needed. You cannot go wrong renting this home. The host on top of everything. They go way above and beyond if you have a problem. Cannot rave about this place enough.

Great Location, amenities.

Host provided very helpful online guidebook prior to arrival. We loved the pool, hot tub, proximity to beach, restaurants and shopping. Plenty of room for our group of 9 adults and teens. Kitchen had great space for food prep and dining. Only negatives- cleaning done prior to arrival wasn't good- crumbs on couch, dirty underwear from previous guest under bed, carpet still had dust/bugs in spots. Few items were broken: kitchen drawer and gate, missing lamp knob. Host was super responsive and handyman came over promptly to fix everything. We were told the trash would be taken to the curb for us, but the company never showed up. We still had a great vacation!

Wonderful

What a great place. The location is perfect, relaxing, close to the beach and wonderful natural settings. (Only disappointment is that there were no wild horses to see on the beach when we tried), however, the entrance to the wild horse beach is only 4 miles away--same for lighthouse, nature trails and environmental center. Best case scenario is the convenience of bike rentals, super market, jet skiing, farmer's market and, of course, Dairy Queen. But so much more too. The hosts are amazing. They are so responsive and trusting. My family had a ball (so much space together and alone time). This property is highly recommended by us, wish we rented for two, rather than one, weeks!

Excellent house!

Everything about Sunkissed was easy! Nick messaged us to let us know when the cleaners were finished and we were able to check in early. The house is exactly as described. The beds were cozy, bathrooms clean. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals. There’s even a bonus fridge on the first floor. The pool outback is only about 4’ deep so all of our kiddos could stand which was a plus! *we opted not to heat the pool and it was warm yet refreshing! There’s an outdoor shower to rinse off and the first floor has a bathroom and kitchenette so it’s easily accessed from the pool. Beach access is 4 houses down the road, then walk on a nice trex board walk 2 blocks away. (Took us less than 4 minutes!) There’s a parking lot a block away which always had plenty of parking and we used it a few days to lug chairs and boogie boards to the beach. We brought some pool floats and sand toys but didn’t need to! They have everything you need, including beach chairs and an umbrella. It was nice having lunch in the screened in porch and we enjoyed breezy evenings up on the crows nest. This was our first time in OBX. We had a great vacation and would definitely stay at Sunkissed again!

Great time in OBX

Our family of 11 had a great stay at Sunkissed. Any issues that arose, the owners responded immediately and the problems were fixed right away! Our kids were in the pool almost the whole time and we enjoyed many walks on the beach! The house is big and airy. The elevator was great for my father in law who is almost unable to walk & wouldn’t have been able to join if not for that. The kids played lots of Pac-Man on the arcade. Would stay again!

Very Nice Property and Vacation

The house has everything you need for a wonderful vacation. The pool is beautiful and the hot tub was a huge hit as well. The interior of the home is well maintained and perfect for 2-3 families. The kitchen is beautiful and updated and every room has state of the art bluetooth capable televisions. Downstairs den with wet bar TV, Foosball table and arcade games were a hit especially for our teens. Sarah and Nick were incredibly helpful and guided us through every step of the rental process. Location was good but a 7-10 minute walk to the beach. Would definitely recommend the property for a vacation in Corolla.

Absolutely lovely stay

We truly enjoyed Sunkissed! My family (3 kids 11-15, husband, and my MIL) as well as our friends (parents and 2 kids 13-15) found the house roomy enough for everyone to be comfortable. We preferred to enjoy the beach/pool during the day and cook in during the evenings. The kitchen was well-stocked with (sharp!) knives, cookware, and tupperware. 2 fridges meant lots of ice/food storage (we did go through a LOT of ice and the upstairs fridge could not keep up so we bought ice regularly). House was very close to the Sailfish beach walkway, and the walk was under .4 miles to the beach. Super convenient. And as people who like to cook having Food Lion less than a mile away was awesome. Pool and hot tub were super clean, we enjoyed them thoroughly. Would definitely go back :)
