Perfect getaway

Cozy, very comfortable, clean and well stocked. Very very nice and gracious hosts - easy to get along with and thoughtful. We were in town only one night and wish we could have stayed longer. Cold and rainy weather so it was nice to be able to see and hear the ocean from the condo. Would definitely go back.

Best Location and incredible Oceanfront

Loved the location! Ability to walk into town. Great place for walks on the Ocean morning and night. Can't get a better location. Had a couple issues but the owners were quick to respond and very accommodating! Duck is a very laid back town with great shopping, good food and lots of live music in the evenings.

Perfect Place at the Beach!

At Last was perfect for our family of four! We loved the quick access to the beach, pool, and downtown Duck. The condo was very nicely decorated, clean, and updated with a beautiful kitchen. My kids loved the bunk beds. The front patio area was also perfect for leaving our shoes and sandy items. Jen was very easy to communicate with. Highly Recommend!

I don’t ever write reviews but felt it was necessary for At Last. Awesome property. As close to Beach as you can get. Pool was very nice. Property was clean and just as described in listing. Linen package is absolutely worth the extra money. Host was amazing as well. Nothing but good things to say.

Wonderful stay!

Our family had a wonderful stay in Duck. At Last had everything we needed and more. It was comfortable, clean and the view is amazing. I loved drinking my coffee on the deck each morning and gazing at the ocean, listening to the waves. Very peaceful. This is our 2nd time staying in Duck and we love this location. A short walk (or very short drive) to all the restaurants, shops, and boardwalk. We enjoyed the pool and quick access to the beach. My kids loves the bunk beds, this is a perfect location and unit for our family. We hope to be back!

Peaceful and Relaxing Stay in Beautiful Duck Condo!

I loved everything about my stay besides the colder temps, but a day at the beach is better than just about anywhere else. At Last was gorgeous, easy to access, and had everything I needed in a home away from home. I’ll be back for sure! Thanks again Jen!

Holiday beach retreat

Great condo for the two of us during Thanksgiving week. Plenty of space and all of the essentials for cooking and plenty of games and books too. Great location to the Duck boardwalk which made for easy walks in the morning for coffee and breakfast. Would definitely stay here again.

Full moon memories

Nice to enter a clean, inviting space that’s outfitted with everything needed for a comfortable stay. From the deck we could watch the dawn change the sky from night to day. At night, we could see the moon. Walked into town to wander the boardwalk, spotting herons as we went. Easy to get down to the beach for walking, fishing or just relaxing.

At Last

We felt right at home in this oceanfront condo. It was so relaxing sitting on the deck hearing the waves crashing. Beautiful sunrises over the ocean can also be seen as well. And a super short walk gets your toes in the sand. Also within walking distance is the quaint town of Duck.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer & David Meredith

Host profile image
Dave and I (Jen) live in Fairfax, Virginia and have been making the trek to Duck since we were married in 2001 (Jen has been going since 1966 - well at least to Nags Head). Dave grew up in Buena Vista, VA (by way of Arkansas) and I grew up in Fairfax City. Even though OBX is a little furher from our home than other beaches - it is totally worth it. We hope that you can share our love for Duck and Colony by the Sea!!

Why they chose this property

There was NO doubt that we wanted to buy a property in Colony by the Sea - it was just a matter of which one. Having lugged suitcases up 3 flights of stairs (and a bunch of other stuff), been so far back we could hardly see the ocean and spending time in condos that were just not clean or homey enough - we finally found the right one!

We love that we are right on the ocean, one floor up and our parking space is right next to the stairs. Coming from the traffic in Northern Virginia, we are MOST happy with the fact that we don't have to drive anywhere!! What a treat.

What makes this property unique

Duck is very different than the other OBX beaches and other beaches on the East Coast. We like to call it our sleepy little village in the midst of other craziness! Most of the homes down here are SO big, it was hard for us to find a place that was right (and affordable) for just the two of us. I don't even think most people know that Colony by the Sea exists (and we should keep it that way!). Our little place is perfect for a couple, girls/guys weekend and small families. The deck is magnificent - comfy cozy!
