Big fans of the OBX, we are visiting for the first of three visits this year. Nikki went above and beyond the normal customer interaction which caused us to book our fall two week stay several hours after our initial visit to your office. We have hoped to post a review on their website but at first glance, didn't see where to do so.

Scam-bait and switch listing!…read more We found a rental in OBX that accepted dogs. No max number listed anywhere on the posting. We booked the house listing 3 dogs and they processed the booking. 6 days later they reached out to get the weights of our 3 dogs. Upon providing that information they responded that there would be a strict 2 dog max. They refused to allow us to pay more for a 3rd dog and are refusing to refund our money. We obviously would not have booked had a max number of pets been added to the posting. Complete scam that is leaving us out of money.​

In August 2018 we planned our 3rd stay with Pirate's Cove in Manteo, NC. We arrived in Manteo to…read morebeautiful weather and upon check- in we were asked to hold in the office while an inspector confirmed our unit was clean and ready. Once we got to our 3rd floor room we found the sand that we expected to find at the beach, all over the floor (keep in mind this is not an ocean front facility). Our crawling 15 month old was on the floor less than 5 minutes and his hands and knees were covered in sand and dirt. This prompted us to sweep, which made it apparent the floors had not been cleaned even on a low standard. There were various crumbs on the tables and counters, indicating that they had not been thoroughly cleaned. At this point we contacted the front office to request a vacuum and mop, and they got us in contact with Ken Herman the Rental Coordinator. He promptly delivered the requested items as well as a bag of cleaning products that we were grateful to have. We spent several hours on our first day of vacation cleaning to mitigate the problem. They did offer to send cleaning staff out, however we feel that they failed the first time even with an inspector's approval, and felt more comfortable cleaning the unit ourselves. Less important than the filthy floors, but worthy of noting- there were ants on the counter, dishes were dirty, the rooms would not cool, the ceiling fan in the master was unusable due to an awful squeak, and there were countless other cleanliness issues. This made for a very uncomfortable stay of which we decided to check out of 4 days early. My family and I do not expect the newest and nicest of things, however we do expect a clean and sanitary environment. Furthermore this building is one of the older buildings in the complex, which is not equipped with fire sprinklers. Typically this is not a bother, however it concerns me when you have a multi story residential building that allows vehicles to park under the rooms, and only has one means of egress. The unit is only equipped with one smoke/ carbon monoxide detector which is on the ceiling just inside the front door. (NFPA 72 for many years states detectors should be placed in every sleep room as well as outside each sleep room.) With fire places in the units, the need for adequate smoke and carbon monoxide alarms are paramount especially when combined with the single means of egress, parking under the building and lack of sprinkler system. With Carbon monoxide being heavier than air, the entire room would have to fill with carbon monoxide to properly activate the detector which could be fatal if occupants are sleeping. (That is if the alarm is even heard in the master when the door is closed with tv or the squeaky ceiling fan on). This is just a side note that should be addressed by the property management to ensure the safety of their guests in the event of an emergency during their stay. Overall it seems they were more concerned about the fishing tournament that was taking place over the satisfaction of their guests. We had hoped to make the OBX and Pirate's Cove an annual vacation spot, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.

Water pressure in that shower was amazing :) We would highly recommend sea spray cottages to friends and family and hope to come back!

They call it the surfers shack because of the decor which is adorable. It has easy access to the beach, a small fenced in yard for a small pet. We bought the starter amenity pack which we originally thought was pricey, but we're very grateful for when we got there. We arrived in the pouring rain very late at night, so the starter pack kept us from having to unload everything when we got there. The screened in porch is just right to just sit and gab during the evening. The outdoor shower helped keep the inside from becoming too sandy. If I ever go that way again, I would want to stay again. The only thing I would mention is that the address on the cottage will not show up on the GPS. It needs to read S. Old Oregon trail and it will lead you right to it. Close to shopping and activities.

Harriet was very nice and extremely accommodating. We arrived early and she had no problem letting us check in an hour early. We were very pleased that they provided us with 2 beach chairs and an umbrella for an additional cost. We also had them provide our linens and that was extremely convenient. We also purchased their amenities package but wouldn't do it next time. We had to go out and get more toilet paper and paper towels shortly after arriving. We will definitely stay with Rentals on the Ocean next time we visit OBX!

The following amenities are included: - breakfast at 8:30am (naturally, the thing to do if you're not a morning person is take a 2.5 hour nap after eating; I may have some experience with this.) - beach access within a few blocks! - cable tv in room - beach towels, umbrellas, and beach chairs available during your stay - bathrobes - a cozy room decorated with beach-infused decor (seashells, lighthouses, sand-themed hangings) - jacuzzi and pool, not to mention hammocks for relaxing We had a wonderful stay, and I would highly recommend this place. The caretakers were kind, warm, and around in case any assistance was needed (help! A replacement beach towel is needed!).

We were welcomed by our host Eric, on arrival who was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. Our room was very nice, decorated in a birds of paradise decor and had a sitting room and a large, private bathroom. The house boasted a pool, hot tub, roof top patio and various other outdoor seating areas. It was located on the second row of houses from the beach with about a 3 minute walk to the beach and 5 minutes to the pier. Every morning at 9am hot coffee was available and our hosts served us breakfast that included omelets and a breakfast casserole with veggies from the Margie's own garden. There are only 3 rooms at this B&B so only 6 people maximum can stay at one time. Fortunately, we were the only ones there during this weekend so we had the whole place pretty much to ourselves! The RelaxInn was very close to MANY shops and restaurants, just the perfect location! If you are looking to get away and have a quite time with a hot breakfast served daily, you should check out this place!
