  • Our family beach trip to BHI was spectacular, largely in part to our stay at this wonderful property. "A World Away" offers beautiful views and an abundance of amenities. This house and the owners were accommodating in every way.

  • We had the pleasure of renting Sue's home in July 2009. Each summer we have stayed at different homes on the island so as to experience the various habitats. Sue's home was the ultimate. Everything was clean and fresh. The beds were very comfortable-no backache in the morning! The kitchen was well stocked so we could cook in most of our meals. Access to the beach was simple and convenient. The garage was well stocked with beach equipment and the golf cart worked perfectly.

  • The house was just what we had hoped for, the time spent at "A World Away" was so relaxing. The sunsets, views, dolphins playing in the water, the fox who traveled the beach daily looking for turtle eggs was so entertaining. We are sure that many of the people who have stayed here are repeat customers, as we know we will be! The Davis's are fantastic to rent from and have a beautiful place to escape to. We're jealous!! LOL Thank you for sharing, we loved it!!! We'll be back!! Toni & Philip (Mooresville, NC)

  • My family had a great time staying at "A World Away." My son loved watching the ships come and go and seeing both lighthouses from the balcony. The kitchen was well equiped and the house was nicely furnished. We hope to stay there again next year.

  • Our family has been coming to Bald Head for fourteen years. We have tried eleven different locations and this the 12th (A World Away)was the best. The breeze and views from the upstairs porch were fabulous. The location close to BHI club and at the end of a cul-de-sac was both convenient and private.

  • Wow! What an incredible vacation!! This home sits facing the Atlantic Ocean, Cape Fear River, and some of the most gorgeous sunsets we have ever seen. We walked in to find a beautifully furnished place with two large bedrooms and baths that exceeded our expectations. We had lots to do on the island... biking, hiking, fishing, swimming, and we enjoyed time at both the islands private clubs. (worth joining both!) We will definitely rent this home on our next trip to Bald Head!!!! Thanks! Jon and Brooke Beatty

  • Wow! My husband and I stayed at this home and were so plesantly surprised at the size and quality of the furnighings. Not your typical rental. The Davis'have done everything possible to make their home a first class rental. One that you would not ordinarilly find in a rental pool. Thank you both for sharing your home and keeping it in such tip top condition. It all was just like brand new and very clean. WE will return often. Sincerely Diane Heichel

  • Our first stay on Bald Head Island and the VRBO owner comments are modest. The island and the rental property are top notch. Our expectations were exceeded. We could not have stayed at a better home. We would recommend this property to the most discerning and we will definitely go back again.

  • We've stayed in various places on the island, but none captured the magic of Bald Head like "A World Away." The beauty, serenity and warmth of the home highlighted everything the island has to offer. And the owners were totally committed to helping us in every way possible. "A World Away" will always be our first choice for Bald Head Island.

  • My husband and I recently stayed at "A World Away". Beautiful,clean, home with with a gorgeous sunset. The house was conveniently located a few steps from the beach, close to the ferry and all other activities on the island!! The porches were a great place to relax and enjoy a good book. I would highly recommend your home to anyone.
