Vacation rental for a week in South Nags Head. The unit owner locked the thermostat down so it…read morecould not be adjusted below 72 degrees. We were not told of this restriction nor was it in the rental agreement. Outer Banks Blue offered up box fans as a resolution. Heat rises and at night 72 was pretty miserable, The manager refused to speak to us, we had to deal with a go between In the office. It took 3 calls to get the owner to allow a lower temperature at night and even then if you touched the thermostat to raise it even a degree it locked you out. The dryer in the house must be 25 years old and a lot ad of beach towels took 3 hours to dry. Called maintenance and their resolution was to tell us to do smaller loads. Just not very renter oriented. If you're an owner they're probably fine.

Sectional needs replaced, it's in poor shape. Cabinet doors hanging off henges need fixed. Light bulbs out. AC was out so we got window units for bedrooms. That helped us sleep but the rest of the house was 85 degrees. Pool was to be heated and we only got about 1.5 days of heat before we had to call them out a total of 2x. A lot of money to heat pool and not get a full week of it. Police were called out 3x to nearby houses. People walked the street all hours of the night. A bag of rocks was thrown over our privacy fence one evening. We wouldn't stay here again.

We experienced two issues at our cottage (bugs and pool water level) and they were taken care of posthaste with a smile. These people are the best! We have been vacationing on the Outer Banks for 50 years and have been renting through Beach Realty the past three -- we will not deal with any other company . . . This year we stayed at Beach Road Cottage in KDH. Five stars, as well. Accommodations were clean and comfortable. The property was steps to the beach and close to restaurants (walk to Goombays Grille & Raw Bar) and attractions. As noted above, a couple of issues were taken care of quickly and professionally. We will book again . . .

As soon as I arrived and saw how bad of shape it was in I contacted them and sent pictures and was in contact the whole time of staying there. It was an embarrassment for me when my guest arrived. Beach reality didn't do ANYTHING or compensate anything. All they did was tell me that they would not delist this property after the first of the year. I would NEVER recommend or use this company again, due to them, not standing by their customers. Absolutely horrible company!! And you would think by their response to my review that they would have compensated me with something. They knew the property was at a lower standard than they were charging for yet they still will not take care of their client. Complete trash will never recommend this place ever.

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!

We ended up paying an extra 1k to rent it. When we arrived there was a tip envelope on the counter saying the home had been cleaned and inspected but clearly it wasn't because there was items from the prior tenants stored all around the home and it was dirty. Extra beds on the patio, baby gates out front by the outside shower, someone's underwear, socks and bra in the drawers, moldy shower curtain, dirt under the beds. We called housekeeping number on the envelope but there was no answer. When we finally did get ahold of someone they came and picked up the items outside. For more than 5k for the week I expected better not worse. We loved this place last year when we stayed here but we are already planning our next home and going back to Vacasa.

A Stark Contrast to Their Own Promises !!…read more My parents rented this property for our long-awaited family reunion -- 14 of us, including relatives who flew in from Hawaii. We were excited to spend the week together in what looked like a beautiful and spacious home, but the experience was unfortunately full of red flags -- from safety concerns to management's dismissive response. Serious Safety & Cleanliness Concerns: * The deck had multiple exposed nails, which caused injuries -- including a cut foot. * The pool gate slammed shut with extreme force. It actually struck my young niece, leaving her hurt and shaken. * The outdoor bathroom was dirty and unusable from the start. * There were visible roaches in the home when we arrived. * The outdoor shower, which was advertised as a feature, was filthy and completely unusable. Disruptive Conditions That Weren't Disclosed: * Construction was happening on both sides of the house all week, bringing loud noise and disruption every day. * We were never informed about this in advance, even though the reservation had been made months prior. Unacceptable Response from Management: When we shared these issues, the president of the management company responded with zero accountability. Rather than showing any concern, he told us we should've reported safety hazards like protruding nails during our vacation. After we left, their technician confirmed that eight nails needed to be repaired -- validating our concerns. Instead of offering any resolution, the president accused us of "extortion tactics," which was insulting and unprofessional considering the legitimate issues we raised. A Stark Contrast to Their Own Promises: What made it even more frustrating is how the company promotes itself. Their website claims: "Experience the Shoreline Difference and see why we are rated #1 in Guest Satisfaction! As our guest, you are our family and will be treated to the best in hospitality!" That was far from our experience. We were treated more like an inconvenience than "family," and safety clearly wasn't a priority. Bottom Line: For over $6,500, we expected a safe, clean, and welcoming environment. What we got was a property with hazards, misrepresented amenities, and a management team unwilling to take responsibility. I would not recommend this rental -- or this company -- to anyone looking for a reliable or professional vacation experience.
