Mostly Good, Few Things Could Be Better
Would we stay here again? Probably if we couldn’t find something else.
Pros:
- The location is ideal, ocean side and 5 min walk to the beach. Easily walk or bike to downtown Duck. Upstairs deck offers amazing sunset views.
- Kitchen was stocked with all the cooking utensils and appliances, including an air fryer.
- Bathrooms are on the small side, but they have been updated and were clean.
- AC works perfectly
- Great communication from property management company.
Cons:
- Outdoor space was a let down. There are two decks in good condition, but the outdoor furniture is very cheap, old, rusty or so low to the ground that you stare at the railing. The outdoor dining only seats 4 and is a rusty table that is chipping. There is absolutely no shade in the afternoon, so don’t plan dinners outside.
- Bring your own grill. The park-like grill at the house was inaccessible due to the overgrown yard. We ended up having to go out and buy a grill. Simple maintenance would alleviate this issue
- Outdoor shower doesn’t work. After cutting back all the overgrown vines and sweeping out the cobwebs, I was let down to realize the fixture was corroded and busted. Again, simple maintenance.
- The beds are very uncomfortable. Everyone had rough nights sleep. Investment in just slightly better mattresses would make a world of difference.
- No pool. That was clear in the booking. I mention it because we thought we didn’t want a place with a pool, but realized it would have been nice.
