This was kind of a wild experience! A bit overwhelming for me. Due to that I took my time and only…read morewandered around a portion of the entire store (or collection of different stores?). Maybe a good two time visit for those like me with sensory issues. There is so much! All sorts of beach-y items, touristy trinkets, souvenirs, clothing, footwear, fun randomness, gear and such that you might need for water adventuring (surfing? Scuba diving? IDK honestly! Not my area). AND kites! Stunning ones. Highly recommend this particular Kitty Hawk Kites. I know there are a few others among the Outer Banks. This one seems like the best or most epic store to wonder about. Bonus (for me): there is a bar upstairs! With a great view of the ocean.

This is a toy store like none other on the island. If you like toys, especially kites... this is a…read moregreat shop. The staff was super helpful and engaging. We bought about five kites... several for grandkids. Some for us grandparents. They have a lot of really interesting quality gifts and toys.

The morning of our check in I received a phone call telling me that the equipment I had already paid for was not available, which left me no time to make alternate arrangements. The employee who contacted me was incredibly rude, and offered no apology. She seemed to think she was doing me a favor by offering a refund and was argumentative. A simple I'm sorry would have been appreciated. Not a place I'd recommend doing business with.

** AVOID THIS COMPANY ** If possible, I'd give ZERO stars…read more I rented a beach wheelchair for my father and aunt. Had it delivered to our hotel and when the delivery person showed up, they had no information on where or who it was to be delivered to. During the week we had it, we locked it up in a public area of the hotel (as instructed by the rental company) and when the delivery goons came to pick it up, they cut my $80 bike chain lock to retrieve it. Never called me (the company had my cell number) and never checked with the hotel front desk or asked them to call our room (the hotel is small and they knew we were the only ones renting a beach wheelchair). What's worse, however, is the delivery goons lied about who cut the lock, blaming it on the hotel maintenance staff. Fact is, they never even spoke with the hotel maintenance staff. But the coup de grâce was when I spoke with Nicole, the manager at Moneysworth Beach Rentals - an oxymoron if ever there was one. She was rude and attempted to blame me for locking up the wheelchair. She took ZERO responsibility and pointed the finger at me, the hotel maintenance team and the hotel management team. She contradicted herself repeatedly about their delivery person trying to reach me while in her next breath telling me they don't share customer contact info with their delivery people. I had rented the same equipment from them for two years prior but this will be the last time I will ever do business with them. **AVOID THIS COMPANY ** PS and by the way, the manager of the Surf Side Hotel felt so bad about our negative experience with Nicole and Moneysworth that she comped us super late checkout (5 PM) for the afternoon. Now THAT is customer appreciation and they will have my business each and every time I visit OBX for vacations.

After perusing the store I realize just how unique it really was.

When I need to make any purchases I will definitely try their online ordering system tense I live in Florida. What's a girl to do?
