Broken hot tub
Colleen S.

Run fast and far away from this company! I rent houses frequently; however this is my first time in this area with Beach Realty. I have never rented such a dirty house in my life. This is the house of clean people's nightmares! The air filters were beyond dirty, the house smelled of mildew, had complimentary pubic hair, potential bed bugs, ants, pee stained mattresses , black mold, broken hot tub, dirty dishes, stained and unclean carpets, stained linens, etc. The company dispatched cleaners back to the house, but they were useless. I have never experienced filth like this in my lifetime. The address of the house is 1269 Clearwater Lane in Corolla. The house is named Dolphin's Song. The property management company was absolutely useless. Don't let your vacation be ruined like mine was! We spent so much time cleaning, washing our linens, etc trying to make this house habitable for our week. Corolla itself is filled with wonderful people who were kind enough to fill us in on this company and know of many people with similar experiences from this company. This madness must stop! P.S. They remove negative posts from their website. Deception at its best!

rusty nail and screws found on the open deck and in the sand around the property

Our place 122 Clam Shell Trail was a disaster. The property (Beach Blessings) was littered with hazardous materials such as rusty nails and screws. These were found under the sand and on the open deck. Let me detail just a few more issues, you decide if this is something you might want to deal with while travelling to the amazing and beautiful OBX. 3 Fans all using the same remote frequency: Response - thats how they are. Wrong, i sent the manual to them which clearly stated "do not leave the fan on the default frequency" also detailing the very simple fix of removing the fan (3 screws) and setting 1 of 32 different frequencies. Their response "we aren't going to fix that" Nails sticking out of the old deck: Response: Nothing: these things were at least up to a finger width sticking out. I'm just thankful we noticed this and didn't have any small crawling children around. Grill illegally placed on the deck: Response: the owner says to leave it there. Leaking Ceiling: Response: they sent more linens so we could clean it up. Beach Realty was unwilling at every complaint to assist and never sent a single person to look into any issue. In fact, when attempting to ask for a manager, we were told the manager was in a meeting. Clearly they don't communicate, because the manager said she was out of the office. Yep, the whole time we were there, the manager was both in a meeting and out of the office. The best is when you submit a claim and they specifically tell you you cannot post any poor reviews if they provide compensation. Well, in our case we initially requested compensation but by the end of our "vacation" decided it would be better for all of us if we could post the truth about this company and the property owners. Full disclosure they denied the very little compensation we intially requested.

Shower curtain in Master bathroom

This is the dirtiest place we have stayed at. We rented from Beach Realty. Here's a list of things wrong: 1. Very bad mold smell in house. 2. Jacuzzi tub was selling point for us, wasn't usable. 3. Refrigerators and freezers dirty. 4. Ice makers didn't work. Called the office the day we got there (Saturday). Girl had an attitude. They came Tuesday to fix it and didn't start getting ice from it the day before we left (the following Saturday). 5. Screened in porch filthy. There was dirt on the floor so it wasn't cleaned before we came. Screens falling out. Spider webs with eggs in it. 6. Outside couches by hot tub dirty and moldy. Couldn't sit there. 7. Couldn't hang out in rec room. Unbearable smell, air hockey table busted seemed they tried to fix it with duct tape. 8. Black mold on shower curtains in master bathroom and one of the lower floor bathrooms. 9. BBQ grills disgusting. Never been cleaned so we did do any grilling. 10. Couldn't do laundry because washing machine only put out hot water. 11. Walk way to pool was full of overgrown weeds. Unfortunately I checked out Beach Realty's reviews afterward and they didn't get very good reviews. They also reply to the reviews with the same answer "you have twenty four hours to report any problems". I'm sorry but people spend thousands of dollars on this and there shouldn't be any! Not to mention all the complaints are the same so they should have been taken care of. My feeling is they don't really care about the houses or the people visiting, just out for the money!

Very disappointed in the state of our condo. We took pictures of some of the more glaring problems which are attached and sent them on day two of our stay and never got a response. Hold times were always too long for anyone to pick up. Location was great but the condo was basically like someone came in and maybe changed the sheets and that was it. Floor was dirty. We had to rewash all the dishes, there were sticky smudges from kids finger prints everywhere. For what we paid this is frankly unacceptable. We will not be using their services again. Also, although there are multiple reports for cable tv, they didn't have cable..:the remotes went to nothing. There was one roku stick I found in the bottom separate area that I moved up to the normal living space. Multiple chairs and carpets that were in the pictures were no longer in the house--perhaps because it's for sale and the owner removed them?

Dead dad on stairs to house

We rented Ashley's Retreat through Beach Realty. I would label this property as total false advertisement. The pics and description were completely inaccurate. The property was deplorable. Extremely dirty, aged and rundown. And smelled very badly. The AC did not work on the second floor. It was 90 degrees in the master at night. Carpet was brown as was the furniture. I walked around with no shoes for about five minutes and my socks were black! The exterior was just as bad. Totally overgrown with weeds. There were giant spiders everywhere inside and outside. The outdoor shower was not even reachable bc it was totally infested with spiders. The outside deck had piles and piles of dead midges. The wood was aged, splinter prone and there were nails sticking up everywhere. Totally unusable. And worst of all, there was a giant dead rat on the stairs going into the house. So gross. The ocean view was blocked by overgrown dunes. I did question this and was told that they can't touch the dunes. Then why include pictures of the property as having clear ocean views. They should include the obstructed view on their website. I was not letting my family stay there. I don't know how anybody other than college kids would want to stay there. We were able to rent rooms at the Sanderling. Beach Realty was non-empathetic at all, very nasty and unprofessional about the whole situation. Total guns drawn, immediately that we are 'not getting out of the lease'. When we didn't even bring that up right away. They claimed that they would fix it all. I went back two days later...AC was still broken. With the exception of the dead rat being removed, all other issues detailed above were NOT addressed at all. I will be contacting an attorney. Don't waste your money people. There are tons of realtors that can help you with your rentals. Don't gamble with Beach Realty. We spoke with other people during our stay and apparently Beach Realty properties are notorious for being dirty and run down. And Beach Realty being difficult to work with. And as you can see from other reviews, what we experienced is a very common occurrence.

Dirty panties
Serina M.

If I could give this negative starts I would have. My family and I just got back from staying 7days at The Flying Tiger Inn. The morning after we arrived I found a pair of dirty ladies panties in the bedroom were my small kids slept. I called the housekeeping and they sent out a cleaning crew which I pointed out the panties too and after staying 10mins I checked and the panties were still there. I called back and they sent out another crew which got the panties first thing and did the best they could but this place has been neglected so long that they couldn't do much. One of the shower curtains was black with mold, they removed it and said they'd bring a new one but in the 7days we were there no one ever brought one. This was our little families first vacation together and we were so excited but that was all gone as soon as we walked in this nasty place. It was the most stressful week I have ever had. Instead of relaxing like I intended I had to clean just like I would've at home. I was told they don't have time to deep clean every house but this place hadn't been cleaned at all in sometime. I pd over $2600 to stay in filth. If I hadn't had my 2 small kids that didn't want to leave we would've left and went to a hotel but after paying for this place it was hard to do anyway. I finally had a property manager return my call and they refunded me $125 that they said they pd the first cleaners but this didn't even cover one night of our stay. Bottom line is DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! I have pictures to show everything that I had problem with and I believe everyone would agree it was filthy. I'm so so disappointed and embarrassed to say that I put my family in this place.

Rented the house Jessea for over 7k for the week with my family. There was black mold coming out of every single vent and onto the walls. There was blood stains on the floors and sheets, bugs falling from the ceiling. My mom was shocked twice by one of the outlets in the bathroom and it fried our curling iron and blow dryer. It was awful. By the second day two people in my family were super sick and by the fifth day almost everyone was sick. We left early because my mom became short of breath and we had two babies who were becoming sicker. We waited over a year for this vacation and couldn't wait to relax and recharge and sadly it was just awful. I will NEVER go to 501 seashell lane or use beach realty ever again. Their contract says they will provide a safe and healthy environment and they did not. This company is a joke and should be shut down.

It took them 4 days get it dealt with, and then we got to live with the chemicals the rest of our visit. We asked for a 20% refund on our 2 week total, and today we got the 'no dice' letter.

When we first got in the house and started unpacking, I found straw wrappers under the beds in reachable distance and an old sock in the trash bin in the upstairs loft. And the worst part - LOTS of cockroaches! I asked for pest control on Tue morning, 8/10 and confirmed they put in a work order that morning at 10:08am, but we still had roaches even on the day of departure. I'm very grateful we decided beforehand to not cook in that house. It's obvious that the cleanliness here is only surface level. Additionally, we weren't provided a trash can to take our trash to the street for collection. They advise to bring it to the curb the night before because trash collection most often comes at dawn. We had to put the bags on the lawn and they were ripped open when we left the next morning. The trash was not collected. The house is beautiful, but I didn't plan on making friends with roaches. We will stay somewhere else next time. I do NOT recommend!

Some issues should have been identified by the cleaning staff before our arrival, however. I do NOT recommend Jus' Ducky (12 Ocean Blvd) as a rental property. This house is not in any condition to be rented. The owner made minor updates to two bathrooms this year, but they have significantly bigger issues with AC, insulation, deck, furniture, etc. from many years of owner neglect and lack of investment/maintenance. Several service members also made unsolicited comments that the house was in poor shape, shouldn't have been rented, thought we might be moved to another house, etc. Chelsea (Southern Shores maintenance), and the teams at R. A. Hoy and KICZ were responsive, polite, and knowledgeable. When we were several hours into a loss of all electricity with no AC and no food (we kept delaying our restaurant reservation to celebrate a 45-year wedding anniversary--eventually we ended up with all restaurants closed and we still weren't any closer to a remedy), one of the guys from Hoy invited us to come to his home to get a bite to eat and a break from the heat--we declined, but appreciated his offer--very kind). The owner refused to take ANY responsibility for the many hours/days of our vacation spent dealing with maintenance, the electric company, HVAC and related issues. Ultimately, Southern Shores stepped up and provided a small financial remedy which we greatly appreciate. Although I will never rent this house again, I will certainly rent from Southern Shores in the future!

They stayed in touch via text and email, letting us know when the plumber was scheduled to come. Super responsive. Half way through our 3 week stay, they gave us the option of getting fresh linens delivered, which was super convenient. Someone maintained the hot tub on a regular basis without being intrusive. This company gave us the feeling that they had our back if anything went awry. We've rented beach houses (VA beach) for many years. The beach environment is very harsh. Rental homes can be in wildly different conditions depending (I think) on the owners and not the rental company. Sometimes a house is old and fraying around the edges, sometimes updated and sparkling. Sometimes renters leave the place a wreck and the cleaners barely have time to put it back in order. If an updated, newer place is important to you, let the rental company guide you to the right homes. P.S. Our house was spanking clean and in excellent condition. I believe the owners take pride in their home, which is well managed by Outer Banks Blue. Great house + great company = great vacation.
