We thoroughly enjoyed this turtle-themed condo, even though our week coincided with wild Nor'easter winds and cloudy skies. The stormy views from the balcony were beautiful in their own way, and we did finally see two colorful sunrises. The location of this condo is very convenient--an easy drive to all parts of the Outer Banks, and grocery stores, gas stations, and restaurants are all nearby. The condo's furnishings met all of our needs. Communication with the host before and during our stay was always prompt and informative.

Check in was super easy. The view was just as described. The minute we walked in we felt our tension slip away. The weather didn’t always cooperate but being able to watch the waves whenever we wanted more than made up for it. The condo was very clean and spacious with great access to many attractions!

Wonderful winter time get away

We had such a relaxing time staying at Turtle Tides. Nothing can beat the view and the sound of the ocean waves from the deck. The hosts had a lot of great information available for us - many great restaurant recommendations. Off season at the beach is so magical. I really enjoy the quiet time to reflect at the end of the year.

Great place on the ocean and centrally located

The condo is decorated so nicely in the beach/turtle theme and is a very pleasant place to stay! We loved having coffee in the morning on the deck while watching the sunrise over the ocean and being able to walk right out onto the beach. The view is wonderful. The location is centrally located to explore both North and South parts of the outer banks and within walking distance to many restaurants. The owner was very responsive, and checked in several times over our short 3 days to to be sure all was perfect for our stay. We can't wait to bring family back next time! Be aware that the there are a fair amount of stairs to climb to get in, so those with mobility issues may have trouble

Great week long retreat from the grind of life!

Turtle Tides is a great 3rd floor penthouse for two. We enjoyed the full kitchen, direct beach access from our private deck and the great views. No need to walk down the stairs to the beach, just walk out and enjoy a hot cup of tea listening to the ocean waves from the balcony. Also Gene’s picks for places to eat are spot on! Will be going back for sure!
