I ventured to this cute beach house for a wedding in September. I had never heard of this place…read moreuntil I received word my friend was getting married here. This house/venue/mansion was beautiful. It sits right on the water with lovely views and the amenities are a pleasure as well. My only side eye is the parking. I mean parking is down the street and it's a short walk to the site, but sheeeesh. My friend did have a few go karts going back and forth from the site to the parking lot that is less than a mile away. Nevertheless, I am not sure if this transportation comes with the rental or if she took it upon herself to have them on hand. I believe this house has three floors... when you walk up the front steps, you will be at the 2nd floor. Pool tables are located on the first floor. The home features an outdoor pool and bar area as well. I may be missing some other amenities, but as mentioned above I was only here for a wedding so I didn't scope out the spot too much. Check it out if this is something that interests you :) Have fun and enjoy life!

Place was clean and stocked with cooking supplies and various items we needed. You do need to provide your own sheets and towels but that's fine. You are VERY close to two public beach access points, restaurants, bars and a short drive to all OBX has to offer! Water pressure in that shower was amazing :) We would highly recommend sea spray cottages to friends and family and hope to come back!

The rooms were comfortable and the staff was so nice. It just felt like home, but I'm from another place and this was manteo N.C. The lobby even had a history! The original owner was very kind to people who needed a place to stay, so he would sometimes give tenants work. A way of singing for your supper. The art in the lobby was done by one of the tenants in lue of paying for his rent. When the business was sold, the new owners thought it to be a good idea to hold onto it for its historical value of this awesome hotel.

Staying at "A Wave From It All". Worst rental home experience of my life. Just filthy. Flies in the…read morehouse, nothing has been cleaned. Roach legs on the window sill. Aside from cleanliness the pillows and blankets are minimal, so thin. I stayed the one night and contacted resort realty who said they could send a cleaning crew and pest control out but they couldn't move us without owner permission. Vacation shouldn't be this stressful. Just a terrible company.

I booked a home with Resort Realty from the online reviews on their site. Clearly, they only use…read morethe favorable reviews.  The pictures of the house I rented were at least 10 years old; the home was not in the same shape as in the online pictures.  I also chose this home as it had a game room with a pool table, card table, and area for our family.  It also had a movie room with a TV, surround sound, DVD player, and reclining chairs and a large sofa for family time. I thought with all of this if the weather were bad, we would still have a pool, game room, and movie room.  All we were able to use was the pool table.  There was a hole in one of the refrigerators, a cupboard door was hanging as the hinge was falling off, another cupboard was splitting at the corner.  One of the beds on the second floor had screws on the floor and the support board was on the floor with the headboard leaning towards the floor, not ideal for sleeping.  The boards on all the deck areas are very old and not treated; several nails sticking up in the boards and some areas where boards were splintering. Before booking I called about the indoor/outdoor pool being usable for the week I needed and was told it would be usable.  We arrived and both the indoor and outdoor parts of the pool were green and full of trash including a 5-gallon bucket floating in the outdoor area.  I called that day and was told it would not be usable until April 18th as it was not a heated pool.  When I asked why I had been told before booking it would be usable and that there was no information on their website about when pools open or were usable, I got a response that the person I was speaking to was sorry but nothing could be done. The game room was okay, the pool tabletop was very old, it was blue in color, and some areas were turning white, it was so used/old. The card table that was in the game room was not usable as the felt on the table was covered in mold.  There as a three-light chandelier with glass globes hanging over the pool table--not the best idea ever. One of the globes was broken and hanging from the light bulb, I removed the globe and set it on the countertop, so no one was hurt from this. The movie room was very dated, and the TV would not give us a picture, maintenance guy said we needed a whole new tv and he would put in the work order.  Did not see him again the rest of the week. We arrived on April 4th, I submitted an email on Sunday, April 5th with pictures of all the issues and received an email that maintenance had been included and a work order was put in.  The maintenance man came once; he checked all the issues took pictures and we did not see him again the rest of the time we were there.  I received a call on Tuesday April 7th from Resort Realty to inquire if the maintenance man had been out and taken care of the issues.  My response was "honestly I don't know what he did, I am on vacation and don't plan to sit around for maintenance issues." The Resort Realty staff I dealt with on the phone for booking and questions was very helpful. The representation online of the house and when access is available to home and pool was not great.  Issues should be handled before quest check-in or at the least taken care of within a day or two of reporting these issues. There is nothing online about when pools can be used, if they can only be used if heated, and that check-in is 4pm at the earliest but could be 6pm or later.  They do offer early check-in for an added fee of $150. If you don't pay, they will contact authorities to remove you if you arrive early and are waiting in the driveway.

Instead, we were…read moregreeted by a very grumpy woman who was somewhat rude and seemed like she was annoyed we were there. We were seated against the stairs without a table and despite a few spots at the bar opening almost immediately after we sat down, they would not allow us to sit there. We ordered two grey good martinis, extra dirty and they were ok but far from good or properly dirty. I'd expect far better from a place calling itself a martini bar and charging more than nice restaurants in the area. The service was lacking and overall it was just a very weird and off putting experience. We won't be returning. I truly hope how we were treated had nothing to do with us being a biracial couple.
