Check in was super easy. The view was just as described. The minute we walked in we felt our tension slip away. The weather didn’t always cooperate but being able to watch the waves whenever we wanted more than made up for it. The condo was very clean and spacious with great access to many attractions!

We thoroughly enjoyed this turtle-themed condo, even though our week coincided with wild Nor'easter winds and cloudy skies. The stormy views from the balcony were beautiful in their own way, and we did finally see two colorful sunrises. The location of this condo is very convenient--an easy drive to all parts of the Outer Banks, and grocery stores, gas stations, and restaurants are all nearby. The condo's furnishings met all of our needs. Communication with the host before and during our stay was always prompt and informative.
