There was no pool or hot tub working on the property. That would have been nice to use.

Very pleasant

Well stocked and decorated. Comfortable seating. Beds were advertised and tagged (I checked) as queen but both couples who have queens that we sleep on in our homes found these beds smaller than we are accustomed too. Bellman's carts would be better than the flatbed carts as many travelers have clothing on hangers. All in all we had a wonderful time.

Great Location

Great location central to everything OBX. Nice southeast ocean view although not exactly oceanfront. Property was nicely decorated and comfortable. Easy access to the beach. Some minor issues however the property management was very responsive. Only one minor drawback was that the king bed in the master took up so much of the room there were no bedside tables but I would not consider that a deal breaker. The elevator closest to the unit was not working however the other elevator was in service. All in all we had an excellent stay and would consider staying here again.

Maintenance issue

The location was great and easy to go south to Hatteras and north to Currituck. The problem was I contacted management about the screen doors to the balcony not working. Maintenance came over took one door out and just laid it on the balcony. The other door was not fixed. Problem is we couldn't hear the waves or get fresh air.

Family getaway

This property was perfect for our family’s week away from home. We loved the location on the beach and spent time there everyday. Our boys (5 and 7)loved playing skee ball in the little game room. Overall, this was a very relaxing trip and the condo was a a great place to rest away from home.

Just like home

Well maintained, clean and comfortable. Love the convenience to the beach and some great eating spots - Outer Banks Brewing Station, Mama Kwan's, Stack 'Em High, and Duck Donuts. Great parking and storage in the garage. All transactions with First Flight were easy and friendly. Side balcony was comfortable and still had a view of the ocean.

Great Vacation at First Flight Retreat Condo!

We had a great stay at First Flight Retreat Condo. The condo is spacious and very well-furnished and equipped. Amazing views of the beach from the balcony, and we enjoyed all the amenities that are available (pool/spa, fitness room, game room, etc.) The location is the best part, being right on the beach and within walking/biking distance of all the attractions in Kill Devil Hills and the surrounding areas. We look forward to coming back!
