Very nice little place!

We enjoyed our last minute getaway here! The house was a nice short walk to both the beach, and a great restaurant for a sunset beer.

Perfect little get away

Cozy and inviting. Very easy beach access, outdoor shower and laundry right when you enter through the back door was perfect. Super larger wraparound deck made the space

Clean and compact

This house is a great location for access to the beach - just a short hike over the dunes and you're there! Not crowded either! The living room is large and the furniture very comfortable. My husband loved the power recliner! The beds were comfy too and lots of pillows.

Wonderful place for some R&R

Quiet neighborhood and exactly what we needed for a long weekend away. Home was clean and it was really nice to have beach chairs and umbrella available so that we didn’t have to bring those. We were not able to access the beach from the home’s pathway - it was flooded and impassable after a couple days of rain. We drove about 6 min up the road to the Rodanthe public access site. It wasn’t crowded and parking was easy.

Enjoyed our stay

We had a great stay here. House was exactly as described, had all we needed for the week. Location was great, just a short walk to the beach. Also very close to Real Watersports, which is nice. Owners communicated well with us ahead of time and the house was easy to get in to when we arrived. As with may properties there, linens aren't provided, but this was clearly stated in the description.

Wonderful Beach Retreat

Just a short, 5 minute walk through a wooded area and over a dune from the beach, Pelican Pines is an amazing hidden gem. The house was clean and cozy, and we grilled out on the wrap-around deck most evenings. It is close to shopping and some restaurants, but we came for the beautiful beaches and definitely weren’t disappointed. The homeowners were responsive when we needed them, but that wasn’t very often because the house was perfect!

Great Little Spot

House was very clean and had all the amenities advertised. Location was great, actually closer to Avon and Hatteras than I had originally thought. Plenty of services near by. It is a great place to stay.

Wonderful home and location

Perfect little spot with a little walk close to the beach. My kids loved it. The area is a lot less crowded compared to northern beaches. We even took time to drive to different beach accesses to see more beach. Home was clean and ready to go early for us. Made our vacation amazing. Thanks again!!!

Pelican Pines

The house was clean and well stocked. No dishwasher which I missed in the description but not the end of the world. The deck was awesome and we enjoyed sitting out there. The beach was close but the access was a walk on a path that was pretty muddy after heavy rains. We used the public beach access a couple of days. Owner was easy to contact and very responsive. I would stay again!

Nice spot in a quiet neighborhood

This is a nice spot in a quiet neighborhood. We stayed here primarily if not exclusively based on the location. If we were to go back to this same area to vacation again I would not hesitate to stay here again. The property was clean. The owner communicated well and frequently and responded promptly to questions. It was easy to gain access to the property. We enjoyed the large wrap around porch and sat out there in the morning in the sun with coffee and again at night playing games and/or just listening to music and having a nightcap.

Great stay in Waves

This is a cozy bungalow close to the beach. Rooms were spacious and clean. We rented sheets and towels which was perfect. Beds were comfortable and kitchen and bathrooms were clean. Best of all was the host! She was quick to respond and fix issues! Would give more stars to her if could!

Perfect beach getaway

Lisa’s place was fabulous! Super close to the beach (5 min walk), and within walking/biking distance to water sports (kayaking, jet skiing, SUP, etc). We especially loved the outdoor shower after long beach days. Kitchen was well stocked with cookware, and the wifi was fast! We would definitely rent again!

LOVED!

We loved our stay at Pelican Pines! It was a wonderful home away from home. You could tell right away the home was cleaned thoroughly. The location is a great starting point to explore up and down the outer banks. The street is quiet and the beach was easily accessible. This made for a fantastic first VRBO experience.

Good value stay

We found the property clean, spacious, in safe neighborhood and kitchen decently equipped. You might need to ask about beach access from the house before booking if that is important to you, but there are plenty of public beach accesses nearby and other activities to occupy our short vacation. Lisa, the host, responds quickly to questions you may have. Over all, good value and well managed property.

Just right!

First off communication was great!! With questions about the home, I received replys almost immediately. The description of home was right on and pics matched as well. We enjoy cooking on our vacation, we had everything we needed there. My 1 yo grandson stayed and having a high chair there meant less packing. There was a nice grill, beach chairs, corn hole boards, lots of extras that made us feel at home! We definitely recommend this home, and we will be staying here again soon!

Why they chose this property

Waves, NC has something for everyone's taste but we especially like the quiet getaway area where you can beach it, surf fish or pier fish, water sports, shop, as well as dine out either North or South with the same amount of travel time. For our family and friends, it is the perfect walking distance for both sound side and ocean side activities.
