Would have helped to know layout
The online photos and description accurately represent the property, and the price is right for the accommodations. Mary is a great host and responded immediately to any communications. The beach access is right across the street, and although the street is very busy, traffic stops at the crosswalk for pedestrians. We were pleasantly surprised that the pool was already open for the season on our stay and it was clean and heated. It would have been helpful for our group to know the layout. I haven't seen it described by others, but maybe I missed it. The ground floor is basically a game room, with a very helpful fridge for drinks and snacks by the pool. There is a curving staircase to the second floor, where all four bedrooms and two bathrooms are. Then there is another curving staircase to the top floor where the kitchen, dining and living areas are. One of our family members has bad knees, and the two sets of stairs and the way the stairs were curved was difficult to navigate, but our fault for not asking before booking. But it was great to have the game room separated, so that older teens could stay up and come and go without disturbing those of us who wanted to go to bed early. The kitchen is small but well equipped. The location has very easy access to both Kitty Hawk/KDH and to Duck. In addition to the restaurants already mentioned, Vilai's Thai was very close by and great thai food.

Stay at the SUNRISE SURF!!
Mary and her husband were exceptional hosts! My sister and her boyfriend arrived a bit earlier then the rest of us .. but they were pleasantly greeted by Mary and her husband.. Making sure they can get into the house easily and to let them know to reach out if any issues arise. The house was perfect for my family of 6 and our 2 Dogs. Very neat and clean! The view is my absolute favorite part, I recommend waking up to watch the sunrise, you won't regret it! The walk to the beach is about 2 minutes! We used the supplied wagon to bring all of our chairs / beach games! This house had it all, the space, the views, the pool, the hot tub the short walk to the beach.. If you are looking for a place to stay I would 100% recommend this home. Thank you to the hosts! It was just what we were looking for! I'm upset I forgot to write in your guests vacation book!! Next time :)

An amazing experience!
Sunrise Surf is in an ideal location…a bike ride away from Duck and just a short drive to Corolla, KDH and Nags Head. With beach access just across the street (2 houses down) and it’s own pool and hot tub, you could not ask for more! The house itself is clean and large, three floors that perfectly fit our two families. All bedrooms rooms are equipped with modern televisions and Wi-Fi is strong. Mary and Andy were perfect hosts, always available and very friendly! Highly recommend!

Great Beach House!
This is a great beach house, it’s a 2 minute walk to the beach and has a nice view of the water. Pool was large and clean. The kitchen is small but serviceable. There’s an extra fridge downstairs. Beds are comfortable, rooms are bright and it was nice to be able to bring our dogs. It’s walking distance from a great restaurant, Steamers, an ice cream parlor and an escape room. Would definitely stay again.
