Shore Break 242 is TOP FLOOR! Great view!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This unit is an excellent choice if you wish to experience sights & sounds of ocean waves...up close. Forgot to bring binoculars, but still enjoyed seeing dolphins almost every day. Requires ability to enjoy climbing stairs :-)

Really and Truly Ocean Front!

The place was almost in the water! That's both good and bad; I loved the kitchen table where I could sit, work at my computer and watch the ocean close up. The bad is that we couldn't walk along the beach comfortably. However, we went to Ocracoke and had a great time there. Also, cellular service was out one day and that is common, I hear. We forgot to bring our Keurig back, so we donated it to the unit – so don't forget to bring your Keurig pods with you!

Ocean front view

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The view is spectacular. Roommate saw two very large bugs (cockroaches??) in her bedroom and bathroom. We left early due to the storm and water was pouring through a window. Notified front desk. Overall, the location brings us back annually.

Our Buxton experience.

Yes, we were staying (and paid for) an "on the beach property ",....but probably due to Mother Nature, we knew nothing of the non-existent beach that wasn't present in front of the property! We knew nothing of the 50-100 gi-hugick sandbags directly in front of the property, so just like renting a property OFF the beach, we still had to walk TO the beach! FYI...the entire reason we rented this property is that it indicated that it was ON the beach. My wife has medical problems that prevent her from extensive walking any great distance...therefore, the reason for booking this property. This did not pan out. We will not be back!

The specific unit we rented was right on the beach. Very nice location.

The beach was also beautiful, windy and this is a more secluded area in the Outer Banks. We were there pre-season, so it also was not crowded. Probably won't go back, but glad we did.

Spring Break 2022

Property was exactly as listed, except the beach is much shorter than the pictures reflect. That's not a bad thing , just something to know! Enjoyed our stay, it was very reaxing and comfortable. Got stuck once trying to park in the sand drift, but managed fine over all. Would definitely stay here again.

GREAT FIND

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental was sooo close to the water, it was great. It was clean, updated and very cozy. The only negative thing is because it is so close to the water, when the winds were really hig, the house moved as well as the beds when trying to sleep. Other than that, it was FANTASTIC!!!

The roundhouse in the water

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A delightful cottage that was round in shape that provided everything we needed to have an enjoyable stay at the beach. This house was almost, right in the water. It was unnerving a bt in the beginning 5 minutes but quickly I realized how nice this could be for fishing. I would go back to this place immediately.

Best Beach Cottage in Buxton

My husband and I loved the cozy cottage from the moment we walked in. We felt asleep every night listening to the waves crashing in. This beautiful place is very comfortable and the sunrise over the ocean is spectacular.

Paradise in Buxton, North Carolina

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property description was accurate regarding the location, layout, amenities, etc. This property was by far the cleanest rental & most well-maintained we have stayed in & my husband & I do a lot of traveling. Wouldn't hesitate to rent this rental again. Check-in & check-out was super easy. We didn't have a need to talk to the owner or manager once we booked the rental. Would definitely recommend this property to a friend or relative. As far as activities, attractions and restaurants that we enjoyed do your research before you vacation in Outer Banks & you'll have as marvelous of a time as we did. There is a lot to do in Outer Banks that awaits you. What are you waiting for book your vacation & let the fun begin. Our only concern was the amount of sand that was on the sidewalk that you had to walk through to get to your rental. There was a lot of sand in the parking lot that you had to walk through from your car to the rental.
