Great house and location everything was perfect other than only a few bikes were in working condition and we had to pull weeds and overgrown foliage to use the charcoal grill. Over all really enjoyed our stay!
We had a great stay at the Lucky Viking with friends and family! The place has everything you need - pool, outdoor cabana bar, two grills, elevator, pool table, short walk to beach, and lots of beds and baths! Host is very accommodating and responsive.
Home location conveniently located to beach, shopping, dining and activities. Host very responsive to any questions we had. Would definitely recommend!!!
House was perfect for our family group of adults. Perfect layout of bedrooms with plenty of bathrooms. Elevator was helpful for food bags up to kitchen
Check in was seamless. House was as described. Owner was responsive to a couple of items and took care of concerns quickly without impacting our enjoyment of the property. Pool area was great and cleaned during our stay. Highly recommend. A little far from the beach but the bikes were a nice feature. Overall, great place!
This house was absolutely perfect for our family of 13! It was clean, spacious, had a very clean well-stocked kitchen, and the pool area was amazing! The walk to the beach was a little on the long side, but totally worth it. The host was easy to reach and very responsive to our needs. We would definitely stay here again!
This house was absolutely fantastic. Had something for everyone in the family. Host was very quick to respond to any inquiries. House was clean. Everything worked as it should. Would definitely stay again!
The Lucky Viking was a wonderful choice on the Outer Banks for our group of friends to get together. A short walk to the beach, close to shops and restaurants. The home is amazing with a pool, outdoor bar, hot tube and almost every amenity you could ask for. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed every minute of our visit. Amy was a wonderful host and responded timely to every inquiry.
We loved our stay at the lucky viking, between the overall amenities provided and the proximity to the beach there was so much to do. Corolla was lovely and we will definitely be returning. The cleaning service could have done a better job cleaning under the beds and cleaning the dead bugs from the window sills, but other then that the property was very clean. Overall a great time had by all.
We had an amazing stay at this OBX property! Our group of 10, ranging from kids to teens to adults, had more than enough space to relax and enjoy. The pool and tiki bar were absolute highlights—perfect for soaking up the sun and hanging out together. Amy was a fabulous host. She was incredibly responsive, helpful, and so pleasant to communicate with. Booking and coordinating with her was seamless from start to finish. Highly recommend this home for any family or multi-generational group looking for a fun and comfortable OBX getaway!
Our stay at The Lucky Viking was amazing. The house is spacious and great for large groups. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need. The pool area was fabulous with the outside bar and the kids really enjoyed having the pirate ship in the backyard. The walk to the beach was a little long for toddlers, but it is very simple with a beautiful walking path not far from the home. Amy, the host, was great to communicate with and always replied quickly.
Home was clean and the kitchen was well equipped for preparing meals. There was plenty of space inside and out for our big group to enjoy. The elevator was wonderful as a few individuals needed that accommodation.
Amy was always responsive with answering questions and providing support.
Overall it was a great week!
All the Ingredients for a Relaxing and Fun Vacation
House was spacious and well laid out. Beds were comfortable. Lots of great porch furniture in all the right places for catching the relaxing ocean breezes, reading and conversation. Owner was extremely easy to deal with and very responsive. Rules were not cumbersome. Walk to the beach took about 10 minutes - my 14 year old dog had no trouble with it!
A lovely, spacious and up to date home! Large enough to afford each guest their own bedroom/bath and the upstairs area was perfect for game playing and conversation. Kitchen offered all amenities for food preparation and dining area was perfect for family meals.
There were two wheelchair/walker family members that used the elevator to access each level. Huge Plus!!! I would definitely return!!!
Loved the layout of the house. Plenty of room for all. The outdoor space was well used despite the weather. The kitchen was over stocked with pots pans and utensils . There was no space to store food.We didn't realize how far away the house was from the Nags Head area where we had planned most of our activities.
Being with family was what was really important.
The negatives are a non working TV in first floor bedroom, Bunkbeds meant only for small children, dirty plates and pans in the kitchen, no cleaning supplies, such as glass cleaner, dust brush to pick up dirt and sand, unstable stair treads going to upper most deck and moldy outdoor mats.
Amy was a responsive host. I'm not sure how often she visits the property but I don't feel like the property is being taken care of at the level it should be or what she expects. I'm not sure if this is normal, since I've never experienced it before in other VRBO, but none of the beds had sheets on them. There were mattress covers with the comforter on top...the sheets were on top of the comforters in every room. There wasn't a sponge or small dish soap to get us started. Usually there is at least a new sponge and a small dish soap along with soap in every bathroom. Bath towels were very limited, which became a problem when we went to wash them and the dryer was broken. The yard was overgrown, the sand volleyball area had weeds throughout it, the pool area had a lot of leaves (my mom swept when we got there), lots of weeds on the pool deck area and around the lot. The grass was overgrown. The house itself was very clean and kept up. The dryer wasn't completely working, although Amy had it fixed before our arrival. We had a great experience I just feel for the price that we paid the house needs a little TLC and spring/summer clean up so that it doesn't feel so overgrown/outdated, and some extra towels, toilet paper, paper towels, etc to get us started.
Great property with everything we needed for a fabulous vacation. We will be back! One small issue with the AC unit which was handled quickly. Excellent host.
Had a great time. Huge house with terrific amenities. The elevator was a big help with my Mother in Law. Pool, hot tub all fantastic. We have rented many houses and this is by far the best one. Would rent again!
Great house for a large or extended family. Truly enjoyed the pool with the kids and the beach was a short walk away. Loved how close lots of activities were.
