Kitty Dunes Rentals

We had a fantastic time at our Seaside Vacation rental. The booking process was completely digital and seamless. We received reminder emails about the property and about partnerships, even how to and what to prep for our trip. The packing tips and recommendations were super helpful. Once there, the property was perfect, clean, linens and towels nicely wrapped and ready for use, and a nice welcome kit.

They were also very responsive - one of the doors to the console table fell apart as we opened it, we reported it, and they responded immediately. We can't wait for our next stay with Seaside Vacations.

We loved the location of Sound Side Out. It was peaceful. The house was beautiful and very clean. The only suggestion I would have would be to have more deck furniture. Our family loves the evenings out on the deck sitting around having a good time. The community pool was great, not crowded and very clean. Our family would love to come back for another vacation next year.

All around great experience renting through Seaside Vacations. House was lovely and the perfect size for our family of 5. Beach access was a quick walk from the house. Listing represented the property accurately. Communication with Seaside was informative and easy. Would definitely use Seaside Vacations again.

The house we rented was perfect. It was clean and ready when we arrived. A gift package of starter things like trash bags and paper towels was sitting on the table. There was some normal wear and tear on the house itself, but overall it was very well kept. In better shape than my own home. Beds were comfy. Outdoor furniture was awesome. I really have no complaints.

We stayed at Poolside Paradise, for a family of 14 people. Overall, the house was great. There were a few minor issues with the hardwood decks outside; loose boards. The rooms were exactly like the pictures online. The house was very spacious and clean. The check in and checkout process was easy, however it would have been convenient for an earlier check in time. Other than that, the house was great and the experience was great.

My group of six rented a house in Corolla for our first visit to the Outer Banks through Seaside Vacations. We could not have been more pleased with the company. Not only do they have lots of properties to choose from but the search function online makes it easy to narrow down choices and get closer to what you are looking for. A feature on the site allows you to view great pictures of the property, look at a layout of all floors, and then "walk" through the property.

As a result we had no surprises when we actually arrived at the house we selected. I also appreciated the frequent communication prior to the rental date to keep me informed of key deadlines as well as what to expect when it was time to arrive at depart from the property. We were also able to take advantage of some of the perks they offer with food, equipment, and activity vendors.

I was very pleased to receive an email the morning after our arrival asking if we found the house to be clean and if there was anything we needed. The house was very clean! I responded with a few minor requests like, not enough hangers in the closets and we were unable to locate a corkscrew. Both items were brought to us within a few hours! I will happily recommend Seaside Vacations to anyone looking to rent a house on the Outer Banks!

We love the Outer Banks and were looking forward to our trip with Seaside Vacations for a blissful week by the sea. Unfortunately, we had to cancel last minute. Although this was beyond disappointing, Seaside kindly helped me submit my insurance claim, and answered all my questions in a courteous manner. My previous dealings while planning the trip were equally pleasant. They are also extremely well organized. We definitely plan on rescheduling and on booking with Seaside again.

Working with Seaside vacations has been a pleasure. Everyone has been very professional and quick to respond to any questions or issues while making us feel like family. But our favorite Staff Member is Maple who came by to our rental Home "Mint Julep 5201" to help out with setting up for our first renters of the season. She said the pool, and being able to walk to the beach were her favorite features!

We loved our stay at the Merry Mermaid in Nags Head. The place was VERY clean on our arrival. Happy that it's pet friendly and a 3 minute walk to ocean and sand. Nice 3 bedroom, 2 bath with laundry and lots of deck furniture. Also pet friendly, which we were happy we could bring our dog along. There is a lot of traffic going by the house, but we were willing to trade it for the short walk to the beach. Only wish there were screens on the doors so that we could enjoy the cool sea breezes while visiting in October

Do NOT stay at Sammy's Sandbox! I spent my entire summer looking forward to this vacation with my husband and our three little kids, and the house was an absolute disaster. I posted a very long review, but Google wouldn't post it. I also posted a review on their site, and they refuse to post it. Extremely dishonest. Worst vacation I have ever had.

Check out the pictures! They like to think roaches are totally normal. When these things start crawling the walls and counters at night it's not so fun. And interestingly enough when we called they said the owner refused to spray Bc they had just sprayed two weeks before our stay. So instead they sprayed themselves. I specifically asked them to spray outside only since I had three very little children in the house.

They happen to come when we weren't home and sprayed the inside anyway. And I'm sorry, but every lawn around me was nice. I shouldn't have to call you. Take care of your properties.

Shake Shack in Kitty Hawk: House is very well set up. Kitchen has most everything you would need to cook with. Nice location to the beach. Rooms are very nice. Just be aware because this is a pet friendly home, that those pictures online of the stairs inside are actually green wooden stairs, not green carpet. For those whose pets do not like stairs, you have 2 flights of steep, kind of narrow, slick wooden stairs you have to get them up and down.

Once you get to that top level tho, was very nice and relaxing. And the location is not ideal to take your dogs on a walk. There is no space for bike path or walking path this far north. So our dogs were kind of isolated and stuck in the house if weather didn't permit us to go to beach. The burger joint, was great! Good burgers and shakes!

We had a great stay at Shellous 8/29-9/5. The house was a great fit for our family. Pool was clean and hot tub was serviced while we were there. Walking distance to the beach. When we notified Seaside regarding anything they responded promptly. The cleaning needs to be better but since we were there already we cleaned ourselves. The furniture needs to be updated and a good power wash to help. Definitely will book through them again. It was a good vacation. Will definitely book through Seaside again.

We had a good experience with Seaside Vacations! We used Sun Realty for a few years and while we never had any huge issues, it was nice to see how another rental company worked. I felt the communication regarding check in and check out procedure was timely and thorough and they even contacted us to make sure the property was in good shape on arrival and to tell us that midges may be in the area.

We did have one issue with a dirty vent that I noted in my correspondence and while they said someone would come check it out, no one did. That's the only complaint I have. We will definitely consider using them for next year's vacation rental!

Had an excellent vacation with Seaside Vacations. The house we stayed at was super clean, the provided amenities (towels, coffee, etc.) was a appreciated, and the staff was super responsive. We had a slight issue with the door lock not unlocking so we called the office and they helped explain the issue and even unlocked it for us remotely!

We had a great experience using Seaside Vacations. There was a lot of communication prior to our vacation so we knew what to expect when we arrived at our home. Both of our showers were backed up on the 1st day. We called and they immediately sent someone over and we did not have another problem for the rest of our stay. (Seems that there was a lot of seaweed the week prior to our visit).

We had clear directions on what to do when we checked out that had been emailed to us prior to our vacation and as a reminder during our vacation. I will definitely use Seaside Vacations again.

I have been going to the OBX since I was 12 and this was the most stressful vacation my family and I ever experienced. We had plumbing issues got it resolved in 2 days. Sunday morning the kitchen faucet blew off then in hallway bathroom shower water would not turn off. Placed 3 phone calls and email someone came after 24 hours! Could not find remote to ceiling fan and it was warm but finally found it in a small pottery jar in kitchen.

Strange place for that. The path to beach is good if you do not have knee/arthritis issues. Kitchen could use a Keurig which would be nice and oven needed to cleaned. There were a lot of cob webs, trash and bottle caps under the couch, the house could have used a more thorough cleaning. The decks need to have all nails hammered in, and a hallway light fixture fell off missing one of the twins heads.

Pool needs to be cleaned at least twice during the week. But the pool is awesome with plenty of pool and beach toys. Pool room with bathroom, washer dryer, refrigerator, corn hole boards and outside showers were perfect. Close to multiple grocery stores and Walmart. Getting out on to Rt12 is tricky the trees need to be trimmed back you cannot see oncoming traffic.

The night before we left we had a terrible storm. 10:15 pm the hallway bathroom was full of water. The roof had a leak. Had to grab all towels to soak up water and then grab the crab pot. Called Emergency number to let them be aware if major issue. Could not sleep. Then the next morning went to load up vehicle underneath house it was flooded about 2 inches.

There was a tree down covering the way out. Just a lot of headaches throughout our vacation. I just want the owner aware this house really needs a major inspection. But they took the time out and reached out to me after my vacation. I am impressed with the small company who does strive to make vacations enjoyable and resolve your concerns. After talking with them, and after I realized it was a situation that was out of their hands and they had no idea about things, that prompted me to rent from them again next and give them another try! I did not rent this property so we will see how it goes in 2022!

Dolfin's Folly house location is fantastic for access to the sound for a nice walk in the water, exploring by kayak in the marsh waterway or kiting in the shallow sound! We loved the red deck furniture! Loved the pool for kids and adults. Overall we had a blast! The staff we interacted with to do the rental were very professional and the house is maintained very well. Thanks!

I gave this place one star only because the rental home I stayed in was not great at all. The place smelled old and musty. The cabinets were dirty. My husband got his hands smashed just trying to open a window. Three of the windows did not even have blinds. There was a bench on the porch that you could not even sit on without getting splinters. The property was so close to the road that you could hear every car that drove by.

The first night staying in the property I heard someone arguing outside at like 3:00 a.m. I can't say that I would not recommend seaside vacations but I would say that I would not recommend the place that I stayed. The pictures I have posted are the views of my front porch. I had views of a main road, a car dealership, and a house with lots of vehicles out front. I also found dirty knives in the knife container.
