Great place just a few tips.

Beautiful house fit my family of 9 perfect. Very clean all rooms had view of ocean, beds very comfy kitchen had everything we needed. However on day two AC went out and hostess was very quick to respond but we got two window AC but really didn't help at all considering the size of house stayed 75 to 80 in the living and kitchen area I reported it on day one and AC guy was supposed to fix it stayed 6 days and still had not been fixed, the gas grill was very dirty with food, and might want to check the deck banisters. We had a great time but for the price that I paid I just wanted to mention this especially the AC.

Six Days at the Pompous Pelican

Great location in Nags Head, not far from the Outlets. The Pompous Pelican is a wonderful house. Everything was clean and ready for us. Plenty of space for me, the misses and our pup. Spectacular, unblocked view of the ocean from the top floor… even better from the deck! Note: the photos show a walkway directly to the beach. This is now filled in by a 6’ high sand dune. We were able to climb over it to get to the beach but used the public beach access to return home. Overall, 5 stars.

Magical Beachfront

This was an awesome experience. Waking up and going to sleep to the sounds of the ocean was soothing and breathtaking. The location to access to the beach was also a beautiful experience. Each bedroom had its own bathroom and the middle floor bedrooms had private access to the balcony overlooking the beach. The manager of the property was wonderful and made sure our stay was awesome. I would recommend this property a thousand times over. Our party of 12 adults were comfortable and we felt at home.

Awesome Beach House

Wonderful house; easiest beach access ever; can easily see your family at the beach from the house; super well stocked kitchen with new pots and pans and knives that actually cut; spacious bedrooms with plenty of clothes storage; large hot tub and an elevator to help haul supplies and suitcases in and out. The owners responded really promptly to any inquiries before and during our stay. If your family has volume control issues with adults playing cards at night and little ones who are noisy at the crack of dawn ... you will want white noise machines for the upper bedrooms (but that's true at most beach houses too). A really great vacation home!!!

Lovely and spacious

We visited during Memorial Day week and the weather was dreary, but the home is in a great location with beautiful views and we had a relaxing time. Hot tub was a nice amenity for rainy days. Large open central space on third floor, and surrounding decks on two stories were wonderful. Ground floor with hot tub also has enough space under cover for cooking on grill and serving family meals. One AC unit needed to be serviced, but the property manager was responsive and working on it. We would return!

Wonderful place to stay

Wonderful Family Reunion at the Pompous Pelican

We absolutely loved our stay at the Pompous Pelican and would definitely stay again!! The location is amazing and the property owner/manager was easy to work with. The unique layout--each bedroom having its own private bathroom-- perfectly accommodated our family of four sets of adult couples. The upstairs layout is spacious and open with a very comfortable living area, large dining area, and a beautiful, well-stocked kitchen. It was the ideal spot for spending time together. The ocean views were stunning and we enjoyed our long walks on the beach. The mattresses were on the softer side for us but we are self-admittedly particular about our mattress firmness. The front door was a bit weather-worn and hard to open but that may be due to humidity. Our only recommendation would be to clearly warn people not to park their vehicles under the home. We almost pulled one of the cars into the left bay to make room on the driveway for the other couples' vehicles. Thankfully we didn't as there was a one foot drop-off and could have seriously damaged our car. It looks like some repair work was being done in that area which we did not notice upon our arrival. Had it been nighttime, we easily would have missed it. Overall, we are thrilled with our choice and highly recommend staying at this truly special beach home!

Gorgeous views/Gross carpet

Absolutely stunning views that cannot be beat. Spacious for a large group. Each bedroom has an en suite bathroom. Photos are accurate. However, the carpet is absolutely filthy and disgusting. I wore shoes whenever I was not in bed. The cleaning fee on this house is quite expensive.

The Best Rental in OBX

We have been vacationing in the Outer Banks for many many years now. This is by far the best home that we have rented down there. The location is great, no overcrowded beaches, and EVERY room has a great view of the ocean. It is by far the best laid out vacation home we have stayed in anywhere.

Awesome views!

Excellent location right on the beach! Ocean views from every bedroom. Beds were very comfortable and kitchen was well appointed. Renata is a gem and was very responsive to all of our questions. The only suggestion would be that the carpets and couch upholstery could use a good shampooing. Overall a wonderful property.

2nd Time Here - Just as Lovely!

My return visit to Pompous Pelican did not disappoint! We were here in 2016 for 10 days, my wife and I got married during the stay. We couldn't get it booked in 2021 for our 5 year anniversary, so we decided to come this year. The 7 days here were just as magical as the first time. I love sitting on the top deck every morning with coffee, watching dolphins, pelicans, and the crabs play. There was a maintenance hiccup during our stay, but the communication was quick, friendly, and easily resolved through the property manager. Highly recommend this home for a group of adults as the bedroom layouts are perfect. Also, the proximity to the Outer Banks Fishing Pier/Fish Heads is absolutely wonderful! Love the OBX!

updates

The location was beautiful but the facilities need updating. The bed mattresses were too soft for everyone. The kitchen appliances were old and well used. The burners on the stove were not working well and the oven did not cook at the correct temperature. I would recommend the house but a refresh would be great.
