Great Vacation

This was our third year staying at Rodanthe Daze, and we had a wonderful time. The location of this property is just perfect for us since we like to fish off the pier and at the Salvo Day Use Area. Melanie is a very responsive owner, and we just love our time at her house!

Fantastic Family Getaway

This house was the perfect retreat for our mini family reunion. My daugter was so grateful for the pack and play, stoller, and toddler friendly dishes. When we weren't at the beach, we enjoyed sitting out on the back deck, relaxing in the hammock, feeding the turtles, and playing games around the table. The showers downstairs were nice for rinsing off after the beach and our granddaughter enjoyed some of the beach toys available. We also used the pier passes to catch a couple of sunrises/sunsets.

Loved the Tiki Bar!

We had an amazing time at this house, and the owners could not have been nicer of more responsive. If you’re looking for a laid back town and neighborhood for an OBX experience, this is it. We loved going to the pier fishing and hanging out in the Tiki Bar in the evening. We will definitely be back next year, maybe sooner!!

Dazed and Delighted

We had a blast staying at the beautiful Rodanthe Daze. The house had plenty of room for us and more. We enjoyed being able to sit at the table together for dinner or chill around the big flatscreen for a movie. It was easy to get to the beach from the house with many beach items available for use including a cart to help tote your things. Highly recommend this place and we hope to return!

Perfect!

The house was perfect! Kitchen fully stocked, comfortable beds and great location. We walked to the pier nightly. Our 4 year old enjoyed the arcade at the pier. The house has a fenced in yard in back which is good for the littles to play in yard safety. Under the house has good hangout spot. The added bathroom on ground floor was nice to have. A wonderful stay overall. Excited to go back next year.
