This was our second time staying here and it was perfect as always. Rooms were clean and beautifully decorated. Host was quick to respond to any questions or concerns. It’s a short walk to the beach and lots of activities near by to keep us busy.

We had the best time at Sunset on the Sound. True to its name we watched the sun set every night from the balcony. We relaxed during the last week of summer before the girls went back to college. The zero entry pool was a blessing for my daughter with a disability. The home itself was warm and comfortable and the host was amazing. Hoping to return next year.

Our host Landee was great. So nice! The condo is very clean and well supplied. There is a Kerig coffee pot and we had plenty of cookware if you want to cook! The living room furniture and beds are comfy. The condo is roomy and the views are fantastic being right on the sound. The veranda is great with nice outdoor seating. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Pristine and Well-Appointed!

This was one of the best VRBO experiences we have had! Property Manager Extraordinaire, Landie, at Away By the Sea was exceptional! Communication was prompt and extra courteous. I am a germaphobe due to health concerns and Landie's team made sure the place was sanitized and spotless! Best I've ever seen! The condo is spacious, organized and equipped with everything you could need. The furnishings are high-level and comfy! The huge corner deck is perfect for unwinding by the beautiful Sound waters of Bogue Banks. Sunrise AND sunset were visible from there. We appreciated the covered parking and security measures to access the elevator. Highly recommend this property and we hope to be back.

Linda, your review is beautiful and heartwarming—thank you! I’m beyond happy to hear that your stay at Away By the Sea was such a positive experience. Knowing how important cleanliness is for your health, I’m especially glad our team could help you and your husband feel safe and comfortable. I’ll make sure Nicole and the crew know how much their effort was appreciated—they’ll be thrilled to hear your feedback! And yes—that corner deck is pure delight! I'm so glad you were able to soak in both sunrise and sunset over the Sound. It really is the kind of spot that invites you to slow down and enjoy life! You were such a thoughtful and lovely guest, and I truly hope we’ll get to welcome you back again. Thank you for being a part of what makes hosting so rewarding.

This was a very beautiful place to stay. Very spacious and they provided everything needed for a great relaxing trip. We really enjoyed the wrap around balcony that made us feel like we were to ourselves. The host was easy to contact and kept us updated on everything. We enjoyed our trip and will look into staying here again in the future!
