The beds and furniture were very comfortable, making it easy to relax and feel right at home.We especially appreciated all the thoughtful extras—beach chairs, beach towels, the game room, and the lovely outdoor space. You can tell the hosts put a lot of thought into making their guests feel comfortable and welcome. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location, excellent property

We stayed here the whole month of March as we had recently purchased a business in Holly Ridge. The house was clean, we had everything we needed to cook meals, and we loved the outside spaces.The house is convenient to so many great restaurants, grocery stores, and the beach. We always felt safe, and the area is quiet.We have already reserved additional days as this is a great place to stay!

Stunning, just stunning

Property was beautiful, new and well appointed. Plenty of light and all electrical switches and controls placed for intuitive operation. Thresholds we're all level and floors were attractive. Not one thing was out of order or inoperable. Plenty of things to do outdoors or inside during inclement weather. Absolutely a great place to stay and close to everything!

Sound Haven is extraordinarily clean upon arrival. There were a few things that probably need to be looked at. There are wasps or bee hives living in the umbrella outside. The toilets make a horrible moaning creaking sound when we flushed which isnt good at night time hours. However one toilet backed up and owners were on it immediately. Owners are great to work with! The shower curtain in guest bath needs to be hung properly. It fell at 6 am and we were all startled awake. However, i gotta say that the beds and pillows are more comfortable in a VRBO that I have ever experienced! We enjoyed the stay overall but would like to be able to have the completefirst and last day since we pay full price for them. Thank you tho for letting us stay and the cleanliness and prompt response.

This home was amazing for our family! It smelled wonderful when we entered the door! The hosts had everything needed for a perfect beach day and their home was so modern and clean! They also had everything from toiletries to kitchen essentials that we needed. They didn't miss a beat! And it was located not even 30 minutes from pretty much everything fun to do there! We definitely will book this home again when in the area! I must find out where they got those delicious smelling home fragrances!

Best getaway place I could have found!

We are so happy we found Sound Haven for our first family vacation! From the moment we booked, the communication was top notch and stayed that way throughout our trip. When we needed something for our son, the owners were so helpful and quick to accommodate. The house itself is so beautifully decorated and clean. We loved the vibe of this place. We enjoyed the fire pit and the playground across the street. We really couldn't have found a better place to stay for our beach trip. EVERY detail was so well planned and carried out. I was so impressed and I hope to come back soon! Thank you so much for having us!
