A really great vacation condo

Condo was in a great location with easy access to the beach and pool, as well as grocery store and shops. Had everything we needed and was very clean. Was a lovely vacation spot for our family of 5 who had never been to OBX before and we will hope to come back again.

Perfect for us!

Convenient location by the beach, pool, tennis courts, and grocery shopping! We had family staying in another unit in the complex, and ours was more updated, fresh, inviting, and comfortable. You’ll find just about everything you need in the kitchen (including Keurig and regular coffee makers), laundry room, game cabinet, and beach supply closet in the garage. The bed was really comfortable too- makes all the difference after a long, busy day to get a good night's sleep and do it all over again!

Very Nice OBX retreat

I think many want places on the beach, but you pay more and actually no better off as most places actually on the beach cannot see the ocean due to very large dunes, so why pay more when one can walk a few minutes to the beach and enjoy it the same view. This place was very close to the beach and would definitely recommend.

Beautiful, quiet and functional condo unit close to the beach

Layout was perfect for our group of 2 adults, 2 teens and 2 kids, condo is very clean and functional. Top floor corner unit makes it quiet and private. Owner was very responsive, check in/out seamless and unit is well equipped inside and also for the beach (beach chairs, boogie boards etc). Walk to the beach is short and location close to the Harris Teeter & other services is a huge bonus.

Perfect condo for us!

We stayed at the condo for 7 days. We had 5 adults and 3 kids and it was the perfect amount of space. The condo was very clean getting access to the house was very easy. The pool area was great for the kids and us adults too. Neighbors were friendly. The walk to the beach was not to long, the kids did great! We would 100% recommend this condo to others!

Awesome beach trip

Our condo was very clean and well stocked! Short walk to the beach, everything you needed for the beach was there! Canopies, chairs, boogie boards, skim boards, sand toys, even a beach cart. We also enjoyed the tennis courts right across the road. The pool was well kept, clean, and never over crowded. Would definitely use this condo again and give it a thumbs up!

The perfect beach vacation!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the cozy condo! We went to the beach practically every day… an easy walk and the condo provided all the things you need to set up and play. We also enjoyed the pool and our boys made new friends. We took a horse tour early in the morning which was the highlight of our trip. We ate wonderful meals at nearby restaurants in Corolla and Duck, we also visited Whalehead at sunset. Absolutely beautiful! We wish we didn’t have to leave!

4th of July in OBX

We loved our stay in the condo. It was a great location from shopping conveniences and walking distance from the beach. The place was cute with beach vibes decor, was clean & cozy. We appreciated the covered parking for our car since to take shade from the heat. The host Melisa was very responsive too. Would stay here again!

Perfect!

Our stay at the Cozy Condo was nothing but perfect! Everything was super clean and stores were within walking distance. We love to cook and Melisa had all of your basic necessities even sharp knifes for chopping and slicing! That has been an issue believe it or not in some of our previous rentals. Our kids had a blast and loved the freedom of having the bike rentals. The beach is so close and so beautiful. We have some amazing pics during sunset which are Christmas card contenders. The bbq situation is not ideal and no personal outdoor shower but overall this place was perfect for our family and friends. Melisa was helpful and very understanding to our needs. There is so much to do and explore so never bored. We are already looking into next June with family and friends.

Ideal for Us

The unit was ideal for us - clean, nicely stocked kitchen, close to beach, beach chairs/equipment, community pool, covered patio was great during rain/hot days. Owner was very responsive when wifi went out in the area. On 3rd floor, some cig. smoke from downstairs renter, but wasn’t a major issue. All in all a great stay.

My husband and I were very pleased with this condo. The location is fabulous. You are near shopping and the beach. Melisa was extremely easy to work with and provided excellent communication. The condo was very clean and comfortable. The unit contains a well-stocked kitchen for preparing meals. There is also a beach closet loaded with everything you could need for outdoors. I highly recommend renting the Cozy Condo OBX!!!

Great intro to Outer Banks!

This was our first time in the Outer Banks, and the Cozy Cottage is perfectly located and a great introduction to OBX! The condo was indeed cozy and homey, yet roomy enough for our family of five to not be in each other's way. The beach is a 3 minute walk on a well-maintained boardwalk. So nice to walk to the beach with a cup of coffee in the morning! We also enjoyed a full moon over the ocean one nite. The pool was clean and refreshing - and only steps away. Harris Teeter and a Bait & Tackle shop are across the street on Route 12. We were able to easily surf fish because the Bait & Tackle shop and beach were so close. Five mile greenway is right there for easy morning jogs (beach jog was not as easy). Basic kitchen essentials are provided (we only cooked 1 dinner); beach chairs and boogie boards were nice to have. Overall - highly recommend this condo - perfect location for a family beach vacation.

End of July 2021

This was our first VRBO and our first time in Corolla (Kitty Hawk area the past 4 years) and we were pleasantly surprised as to how well the property was complimented with just about everything we needed for a week down to extra TP, trash bags, dishwasher pods, a pantry with necessary items, etc... Not knowing better, we brought many of these things and we surprised to see a full storage locker full of umbrellas, boogie boards, etc... in the carport. It made it easy to just wash off and pack everything from the beach for the next day instead of having to put everything in the back of the van each day as we are used to. Unfortunately, we did not know this ahead of time which would have saved us alot of room in our already packed minivan. Perhaps I missed that in the property description but we tend to over pack anyway. It was nice to have the ability to do laundry mid-week and we liked having a designated parking spot/s under the unit and not fighting for a parking spot coming back from dinner or Jockey's Ridge. I guess the only thing that we would have liked but totally understand because this is a condo unit and not a single family residence, would be an outdoor shower of some sort. Overall, a very nice stay and highly recommend. We were surprised how quiet the property was with the exception of the trash trucks every few days. Harris Teeter across the street was convenient. Word to the wise, there was a 2 hour wait for Duck Donuts next to Harris Teeter on Friday morning as we were checking out. Needless to say, we did not indulge in donuts for the ride home.
