We have rented many houses in the OBX over a 30-year period, and this was the best ever.

As always with a new property we had issues with figuring out how to work the smart tv's. The ladies in the Duck office were knowledgeable and patient. They stayed after to assist us with walking us through how to access local channels and apps. The property was very clean and we had an overall wonderful experience! We can't express how wonderful the office staff was with recommending local restaurants and activities for our grandchildren. We loved the beautiful sunsets on the Outer Banks and working with Sun Realty!

We booked a property through Sun Realty and paid in full back in February. The second week of…read moreJuly, less than a month before our trip, we were informed that the property was suddenly unavailable and that "nothing else was available." I'm almost sure that they double booked it and gave the property to the highest bidder. We pleaded our case that PTO from work was granted and even offered to change weeks, but they would not budge or offer anything comparable. No thank you to Megan, who showed zero empathy and is the epitome of why this business has 1.5 stars on Yelp. Only horrible people work for horrible companies and stick around. It took almost a month to get our refund, but we still ended up getting a beachfront hotel for the week. I have driven past dozens of empty Sun Realty properties, which shows that the company, and Megan in particular, are liars, as they had plenty of vacant properties for this week. Avoid Sun Realty at all costs. Only a bunch of lying scumbags work there.

I would have loved to have seen this place in its prime! I'm sure it was an amazing stay at one…read morepoint. I would have also liked to have rated this place higher but I can't in good faith do that. The resort is dated. The staff are all very nice but this is a resort standard. Nothing was exceptional or grand. It was all very overpriced for what you ended up with. My discounted rate should have been the normal rate. There is no way I would ever stay at this place at their listed normal rate. You'd have to be a fool. Honestly, You would be better off just renting a house for the price because the amenities are not worth it in this specific case. The food was mid but at arena prices. 20$ for a beer, 24$ for a burger, 4$ for an iced tea.. after the first day we just went into town for food. It ended up being much better economically and quality wise. The beach behind the resort is nothing remarkable. In fact it's sloped and awkwardly angled. The surrounding area itself is immaculate and lush with beauty and there are loads of things to do. It's definitely a family place and not an anything else kind of place so don't get any ideas. Kind of boring honestly, not really much going on. You really do have to make your own adventures. The complimentary bikes you can check out are all falling apart. The walls were so thin I could hear the conversations of the people in the room next to me. The power went out multiple times the day I was checking out which complicated things further including trying to get WiFi as well as the fact that they charged me for a latte that I never ordered and they had to remove it from my final bill. Good thing I checked. I am talking specifically about the resort and not the area itself. Parking was a free for all and there is no valet. If you leave your spot during the day good luck trying to get another one. If this place put some TLC into it they could turn it around very quickly.

We rented this place with the extended family and it was so worth it! Technically this place is 3rd…read morerow, but beach access is a 1-minute walk. The house is beautiful, modern, and open. You can see the ocean from the top floors no problem. Pool in the back and plenty of room to sleep, this place is perfect for multiple families. When we stayed there (late summer 2012), we were quite content. We had 3 families in our party and we had empty rooms to spare! If you're looking for a place to stay in the OBX with a couple of family units needing multiple rooms, look no further than the "Castleberry" house in Southern Shores, NC. You'll have everything you need and more!

Contracted to have our house painted, now I'm full of regret. Last year Beach painted and made…read moremajor repairs to my neighbor's house in 2 weeks. They did a really GREAT job, so we hired them. Unfortunately here we are at 5 weeks, nowhere near done. They send a subcontractor to paint. Everything is a mess. We have fewer repairs, yet it takes 3 weeks JUST to get the estimate. Forget about getting the work done!! Here's the rub-- they were the most expensive bid we got, but we thought they were worth it. I am here on a holiday weekend and the house is a disaster. No one is managing this job it seems. We are spending $32k for a small house and this is what we get? We reach out to Beach and hear nothing. Honestly, they were really good a year ago, but something has certainly changed. Regrettably.

We rented Ashley's Retreat through Beach Realty. I would label this property as total false…read moreadvertisement. 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. Carpet was brown as was the furniture. 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 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.
