This time, there were a couple of minor issues such as debris in the car port area which was cleaned up on the last day of our stay. We were initially given just one key. FFR did arrange for a 2nd one. The cleaning could have been a little better. One of the bedrooms had not been vacuumed. The base of the toilet in the 2nd bathroom had not been properly cleaned. Also, someone left an alarm clock set for 12am. Ha ha! Great fun! Thanks again! This property is NOT really boardsport friendly. The bulkhead directly behind the building has a 7-8' drop to the sound floor. Behind the pool area it is only 5', which is workable but you have to carry your equipment an extra 100'. For windsurfers this is ok because here, the water out to the sound is deep enough and you can sail out without too much trouble. It's very shallow just behind the building. For kiters, it puts you between the resort's pier and then pilings on the adjacent property. The storage locker is ok for kite equipment. Windsurf storage is on the concrete floor of the carport.

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!

After renting the same house for 20 years (and 5 more years at another house) through Sun Realty,…read morethey have booked our house out from underneath us for next year, while we are still here in it on vacation. It has always been a policy that the current renter has first option to book for next year. This policy I believe is pretty standard throughout all rental companies, but Sun Realty! We have been informed that it is now first come first serve and we need to change our weeks. No, we had to change realtors. We're charged a cleaning fee (WHY?), and for what! Every year I need to wash EVERYTHING in the kitchen before we can use anything. Things were so greasy that they almost fell out of your hands. We have a king size matress pad on a queen size bed. At least we had one. Have arrived to no matress pads or wrong size. No shower curtain, vaccuum cleaner that had a broken belt, so you know that nothing was cleaned. Had a toilet that wouldn't flush, and the list goes on and on over the years and nothing has improved. If anything, it's worse!!! If I could rate Sun a -10 I would! They are a terrible company to deal with and they don't care at all about their guests! All they want is the money! NEVER USE THEM AND I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE!!!! WISH THE OWNERS COULD SEE THIS AND KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO THEIR GUESTS!

They have 3 grills in the back and picnic tables, excellent for a family get together.  Check in is done by entering a code (which is provided via email) on your room door and it automatically unlocks.  You will use this code to unlock every time, no key cards are given.  The place feels very safe.  The pool was very clean, I recently stayed somewhere else and the pool water was cloudy, yuck.  I loved the coastal decor/theme.  Price point was fair.  I definitely will stay here the next time we're in town for sure!

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.

We enjoyed the closed in patio and grill provided for us. Our favorite part was the short walk to the dog friendly beach that we spent our days on being beach bums. 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!

Breathtakingly beautiful ocean-front condo with panoramic views of the ocean and beach. This condo…read moreis on the top (3rd) floor of the complex...so be prepared to hike up and down flights of stairs...no elevator. The stairs are worth it because this condo is GORGEOUS. Vaulted ceilings, huge dining room, huge living room, huge 'ocean room,' huge ocean-facing deck, ceiling fans, air conditioning, lots of windows...it's breathtaking! It came complete with a full kitchen and all appliances and cooking utensils, pots, pans, coffee maker, blender, plates, cups...even a wet bar! Bring your own kitchen towels, paper towels, toilet paper. There is no salt/pepper, Pam, spices...things like that, so be prepared. They do provide sheets and bath towels though. I was truly floored by the cleanliness and beauty of this condo...no roaches or bed bugs either (we checked!). There was a first aid kit, ice trays and maker, dishwasher, washer/dryer, and boogie boards provided, so that was handy. They also had tons of games, books, and movies! You can see the ocean from EVERY ROOM! 2 Bedrooms: The large bedroom has a jacuzzi tub! The small bedroom has a private little balcony! This was my first time visiting the Outer Banks and was very surprised by how cold the ocean water was. It probably ranged from 60° to 74°F. If you don't like cold water, OBX might not be the place for you. That was my only major criticism of the location. A few condos to the north, right on the beach, is a little café that does breakfast lunch and dinner, and live music Thursdays through Saturdays. Also I would highly recommend checking where the "beach restoration project" locations are prior to booking. When we were there late June into July, they started the beach restoration project a few condos to the south closing off beach access to those poor people who rented those condos for the week. Luckily the restoration project was not in front of our condo but was definitely heading our way. Overall if you're a big fan of the OBX, rent this condo! I felt it was very reasonably priced. Personally I don't like cold water so I probably won't be back to the OBX, but that is absolutely no reflection at all on A Pirates Paradise which is truly the most beautiful oceanfront condo I have ever stayed in.

We had a ground floor room with two queen beds. There was a "back" door leading to a small sitting area looking at the dunes. We could hear the water from there. We did go up the stairs to see the water view, but it was way too cold to sit outside. There is also an indoor pool and jacuzzi. We didn't use it but it was good to know it was there. My only complaint was the shower. It was very difficult to route the water from the faucet up to the showerhead and the water was only lukewarm. If we had stayed longer, we would have asked for a different room because of that. We could tell the hotel has been updated within the last few years. It wasn't faded decor, but had a clean, classy vibe. Not a high-end resort hotel, but certainly worth the price and it's conveniently located.
