    Piles of dust in the main living area the day we arrived.

    Station Vacation Unit 2B is a lovely home, spacious and a good layout. It's within easy walking distance of the beach access and shops. The building was in a very quiet neighborhood and met some of the other residents who were very friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately, the cleanliness left much to be desired. We felt that the property has not been properly cleaned and inspected before we arrived, even though the rental property informed us that ALL of their properties are cleaned and inspected before being rented out. Judging by the pics below it is safe to say that no cleaning nor inspection has been done on this property! Not having an outlet cover can be extremely dangerous, especially of kids would have been present. The dryer vent has probably not been cleaned in ages and constitutes a huge fire risk. And the only reason we didn't do it ourselves was because we could not figure out where the lint vent is in the dryer. There have been a number of issues we had that, not only it took days before they were addressed, but they could also have been easily prevented: 1) The initial door code that we were given did not work when we arrived on the property; 30 minutes later we get a temporary one that was supposed to work for couple of hours and then it would revert back to the original code. We ended up using the temporary code the duration of our stay as the permanent code never worked. 2) There was no shower liner in one of the bathrooms and it took 2 days to get a liner installed and only after we informed the rental company that we will not be liable for any water damages since we informed them immediately and were promised a liner will be installed on the same day by COB, which never happened. 3) One of the outlets did not have a cover and it took 3 days to get a cover installed. 4) Piles of dust in the main living area the day we arrived. 5) The vent in the master bedroom - yes...the 2 long black lines you see on the ceiling is the dirt being blown from the vent. 6) The bathroom vent. 7) The hallway vent. 8) Kitchen light and cabinets. 9) The dryer would not work, and this is what the technician took out of the dryer vent and the aftermath he left behind on the floor and the washing machine being covered in dirt and sand and lint.

    Windows on outside

    I like the Beach Realty company. I was disappointed about the exterior of the house we rented "The Banks Beach House". The siding, windows and all of the decks looked like they haven't been pressure washed in years!! The bug smears all over every window and the mold on the deck was really gross. The landscape had high grass and lots of spurs in the ground. My dog had a hard time trying to go to the bathroom. The interior was comfortable. Could use some updating and carpet cleaning. I am sure as a rental in August that is expected. We had a great time! We took care of the cushions during the rainy days which we unfortunately had a lot of during our week. Overall I like the house and the crows nest view was awesome. We will look into a different property next year. Suzanne August 2021

    This is the dirtiest place we have stayed at. We rented from Beach Realty. Here's a list of things wrong: 1. Very bad mold smell in house. 2. Jacuzzi tub was selling point for us, wasn't usable. 3. Refrigerators and freezers dirty. 4. Ice makers didn't work. Called the office the day we got there (Saturday). Girl had an attitude. They came Tuesday to fix it and didn't start getting ice from it the day before we left (the following Saturday). 5. Screened in porch filthy. There was dirt on the floor so it wasn't cleaned before we came. Screens falling out. Spider webs with eggs in it. 6. Outside couches by hot tub dirty and moldy. Couldn't sit there. 7. Couldn't hang out in rec room. Unbearable smell, air hockey table busted seemed they tried to fix it with duct tape. 8. Black mold on shower curtains in master bathroom and one of the lower floor bathrooms. 9. BBQ grills disgusting. Never been cleaned so we did do any grilling. 10. Couldn't do laundry because washing machine only put out hot water. 11. Walk way to pool was full of overgrown weeds. Unfortunately I checked out Beach Realty's reviews afterwards and they didn't get very good reviews. They also reply to the reviews with the same answer "you have twenty four hours to report any problems". I'm sorry but people spend thousands of dollars on this and there shouldn't be any! Not to mention all the complaints are the same so they should have been taken care of. My feeling is they don't really care about the houses or the people visiting, just out for the money! I've enclosed a couple of pics.

    In the company of patriots.

    "NO REGERTS" . . . sorry, we were having a good time! One word: wonderful. If you appreciate world-class customer service, Beach Realty is the rental company for you. The friendly, knowledgeable, helpful staff is the best in the business. Our housekeeping and maintenance requests were taken care of posthaste. Our cottage, "No Regrets," was in a convenient location, had comfortable furnishings and a nice layout. The front deck overlooking the ocean cannot be beat (would be nice to have more high chairs!). While the kitchen is nicely equipped, the pots and pans are really showing their age. Love the hot tub. Lounge chairs on rear deck need attention, though. Our nitpicks would be just that and not worth mentioning here. Our only regret: we stayed for two weeks, not three!

    Dead rat

    We rented Ashley's Retreat through Beach Realty. I would label this property as total false advertisement. 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. It was 90 degrees in the master at night. Carpet was brown as was the furniture. I walked around with no shoes for about five minutes and my socks were black! 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 non-empathetic at all, 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. And as you can see from other reviews, what we experienced is a very common occurrence.

    Standing Water In Entry/Exit Doorways

    Turned Off By "Terning Point" and Beach Realty. We rented "Terning Point" (C0437), 737 Crown Point Circle, Corolla, NC 27927) from May 27th -June 3rd, 2023, for our summer family vacation on the Outer Banks. It turned out to be a grossly unpleasant experience. The property manager and leasing agent for "Terning Point" is Beach Realty Construction/Kitty Hawk Rentals ("Beach Realty"). On May 28th, we discovered standing water, an overflowing toilet, sewage- wastewater-soaked carpets, and flooding of the laundry room area and all ground floor entry and exit doorways. This emergency was immediately reported to Beach Realty. A Beach Realty employee subsequently observed and photographed these conditions and we were led to believe that help was available and would soon be on the way. Sadly, however, no repairs or any assistance from Beach Realty came afterwards for three days despite numerous follow-up text messages and phone calls requesting immediate repairs. Only on the late afternoon of May 30th, did Beach Realty offer to relocate our family to a different property for the remainder of the rental period. The attached photographs show the unhabitable conditions existing at Terning Point on our departure. The current conditions at Terning Point are unknown. We have filed a Citizen Complaint with Currituck County's Development Services Department for housing code violations under the North Carolina Vacation Rental Act and Code of Ordinances County of Currituck.

    So disappointed in my experience with this organization. We rented a house from them in Kitty Hawk, NC. Upon arrival, the home was filthy despite the cleaning person on-site at the time (who was cleaning the property with a minor who looked to be no older than 10 years old). They were just wrapping up when we pointed out food all over the couch and not just crumbs, but whole pieces of food under the cushions and the sofa. The floor had been vacuumed but not mopped so it was still dirty. It was the same way on EVERY floor of the house. The cleaning person stated that "it is hard to get the houses clean in such a short amount of time." We didn't want to cause a fuss as we were just glad to be there after a full day driving. By the next day, we began seeing cockroaches. They were not just in the kitchen, they were in the family room and even in the bedroom. On our 3rd day, we found a cockroach in the fridge and decided to call Beach Realty. We first spoke to Christina who said she could send someone out to spray the property to address the cockroach problem. We explained that we were not totally comfortable with this as we had very small children and dogs staying in the house. We recommended that they take care of the issue when the property was empty (between renters). Christina was neither helpful, nor had good customer service and stated that she "didn't know what else she could do." So she said she would put us in touch with a manager. Several hours later, Tiffany (a manager who is also listed in another review) called and she offered no other solution or compensation. She was no more professional, courteous or apologetic than Christina. She was defensive and at times bordering rude. She explained that the cockroaches were just "Palmetto bugs!" This is just another name for the American cockroach! She said that they are attracted to moisture and not food, which is totally inaccurate. She then told us that we should have called on the first day if we were not happy about the house and offered no solution for the apparent uncleanliness of the home. It is no wonder that this organization only has 1.5 stars on Yelp. My experience with them demonstrates exactly why this is the case. We most certainly will never rent from them again and highly recommend that you stay away from them too.

    First time in 5 years, first since the renovation. Ambience is much more sophisticated and refined,…read moreyet still inviting. Best hush puppies I've had in my life. Menu is significantly pared down from previous model. Pricier, but the quality and presentation make it worth it. Half the mahi-mahi fish tacos and my daughter had black bean burger and fries. Both were vastly better than past years. Keggy was our server and I asked if they made shots, she said what were you thinking? I replied we were in Duck so I'd like a Duck fart, she said no, you're in Kitty Hawk, so I ordered the Kitty Hawk Rooster, and she explained to me where the name originated. Friendly staff, personable service. Only complaint, the AC upstairs was blowing right on us, so it was a little chilly. Would recommend to anyone. $60 for appetizer, two handheld meals and one cocktail. Two thumbs up!!!

    This was my first time here and will be my last. I arrived at 4:30 today (Thursday). A woman opened…read morethe door and said they were closed for cleaning and they would open at 5. So I waited a half hour for them to open. I asked for a booth where I could have room to work and eat and the hostess walked me over to a 4 top, which would've been perfect. The 2 tops are tiny. She said she would have to ask if could sit there, which was odd because it just opened and not many people were there. She talked to the gentleman at the bar-- who I assume was in charge. Based on the words exchanged, it seemed problematic from his perspective for me to sit there, despite the mostly empty restaurant. Since I'm a lawyer, I work where I dine much of the time and never experienced such a problem trying to get seated. The hostess asked me if upstairs was okay and suggested it would be quieter. Assuming she was taking me to a 4 top upstairs, I went up with her only to find there were a bunch of 2-tops. At that point, it felt as if I was not heard or cared about--as if I were unwelcome--despite being pleasant with the staff from the moment I walked in. So I was about to go back down the stairs and said it's okay I'll just go somewhere else. Then a woman on the staff overheard me and it was suggested I could sit at the bar. I explained that's not a good space because the bar area can become loud. And this is especially so when people become intoxicated. So basically my options were a little two-top or the bar. I ended up leaving. I worked very hard in the restaurant industry before I enlisted in the Coast Guard and eventually became an attorney, which is why I always make it a point to be polite to service staff. And I would've never treated people the way I was treated here. I could understand them not wanting me to take up the space of a 4 top if it were a Friday, a weekend, or later in the day, but this is Thursday right at opening time at 5pm when the restaurant isn't even busy. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant.

    For the first time ever, we had some disappointments at Black Pelican. We have lunch or dinner…read moreduring most of our twice-per-year visits to the area. It has always been good, and we definitely won't let this deter us from returning. Ms T had her usual Shrimp basket lunch. The issue was that the shrimp were not cooked through. They were still translucent. We totally understand not wanting to overcook shrimp, but these were not quite done. On the bright side she commented on how good the slaw was. I have been on a kick to try barbecue at restaurants that are not barbecue joints per se, to see if I can find some hidden gems. For example, both Sam & Omie's and Wanchese Marina serve a good barbecue sandwich. Black Pelican, at least on this day, does not. I must say, the serving was huge. This was more than enough for two meals for me. The barbecue was dry and not well flavored. The texture and flavor was more like dried out beef that has been over-roasted. This is not something I would order again here. All that being said, I am leaving the rating for Black Pelican as it is because we have always had good meals here. I accept that it can't be 100% perfect every time and sooner or later we will run into something that is less than stellar. We will continue to return. I just know this not where I will have barbecue and we are sure the shrimp thing was just a one timer.

    After checking into our hotel in Kitty Hawk, we headed to The Black Pelican for an early dinner…read morearound 4:00 PM, thanks to a ton of recommendations on an OBX Facebook group. We beat the crowds and got a table on the upstairs patio. It technically looks out over the ocean, though from our spot, it was mostly a view of the sand! We ordered their famous recommended dish and said it was amazing. My Salmon was great too! The only downside? The service really went downhill after the food arrived. Despite being the only ones on the patio, our waiter never checked back in. A couple of waitresses were just hanging out by the bar on their phones, too. Eventually, one of them noticed our cleared plates, asked about dessert, and just brought the bill. No "how was everything?" or "can I get you anything else?"--which was a bummer for such a highly recommended spot!

Great location too! A couple things worth mentioning though. Our room was very damp. And not just a little humid (we lived in FL for 15 years so we understand humidity), but like our clothes felt wet when we put them on and paper gift bags were soft. We actually turned off the air and opened the slider to air the room out a couple times. If I had to take a stab in the dark, there's likely a serious mold issue behind the walls. There was mold growing on the AC unit. Another thing about the area in general (not just the hotel)...flies. Be prepared to have them tag along with you EVERYWHERE. They were in every restaurant we went to, by the pool, at the beach, in the gym, in every store. It was the most bizarre thing. Just everywhere. Also, I didn't realize how dog friendly this hotel was. We have two dogs and love them, but our room clearly had a dog in it previously with signs of hair on the AC unit and in the carpet. I wish we'd have brought our own pillows as the ones in our room were down pillows and even with 2 of them, they still fall flat. Overall, the location, price, service, and amenities were totally fine but those things like the room being super damp, the flies, and pet hair were just little nuisances that I think people should be aware of.

We booked the last available room for the day and were pleasantly surprised with complimentary breakfast vouchers. Unfortunately, after using the vouchers, I checked my account the next day and noticed I had still been charged for breakfast, which was disappointing. The room itself was comfortable. The pillows were soft, the blankets were warm, and we slept well. However, there was one large bug flying around the room, and I have no idea where it came from, which was definitely unpleasant.
