Unit was spacious but needed a bit of refreshing. Carpets had some stains. One small part of the carpet was held down by duct tape. Counters were delaminating. No TV in the bedroom was a bummer. For some people this isn't a big deal but we were able to faintly hear someone in a neighboring unit snoring. Fortunately I was able to drown it out by playing a white noise loop on my laptop all night. Having a deck was nice. Short walk to the beach from our unit. Others would've been a bit further but not bad. Outdoor pool was fine. Didn't visit indoor pool. The one bedroom unit had a strange layout. You went down half a flight of stairs to the bedroom. Jacuzzi in the bedroom was nice but odd that it's surrounded by carpet. Not a bad experience overall. We've paid just as much for places that didn't have some of the cosmetic issues. Location is fine if you don't mind driving 12-15 minutes to get out to the main strip. Anyone that's been to the Outer Banks knows you'll be driving a lot to go to places. Just have to add a bit more time staying in Duck.

Seriously outdated. My units coffee table was falling apart. The TV power cord kept falling out. Outlets didn’t hold phone charger. Carpet is ancient and rippled (needs stretching). Friends unit smelled musty. (They’ve been vacationing here for over 30 years and the couch is the same couch from the 1st time they visited. Same unit every year and told it’d be upgraded but hasn’t.) Location is great and everything was very clean.

We stayed slightly off-season here (mid September). The complex was very quiet and we were lucky to have a third-floor unit with a nice view from the balcony and some of the windows. There are a lot of great recreational amenities in this complex, although not all of them were in top condition or well-maintained. Still, for the price we thought that this was a really good value. The complex is very large and nicely situated, right on the beach on the ocean side and a few minutes’ walk to the sound side and the Duck boardwalk. We really appreciated the indoor and outdoor pools, the Pickleball court, the hot tub, but there were also lots of other recreational options, like basketball and volleyball, corn hole, even outdoor chess. The apartment was nicely, appointed and clean, if a little dated in the kitchen and bathrooms. Still, for the money, it was large and had good flow.

We had a very nice stay and although the buildings inside are very much outdated it was very clean other then some mold in the bathrooms. We rented a golf cart for transportation during the stay and the power hook up to charge at our building wasn’t working so that was inconvenient. Luckily we had other family there in different buildings and power hook up at theirs worked. The staff was helpful while there which is more then you know appreciated. Overall we’ll be back.. thank you for a pleasant stay

We enjoyed our stay. My only criticism would be that we received an email 3 days before we checked in that stated there is limited bedding and to bring our own. Upon callling the front desk, we learned that there are sheets, pillows and a light blanket. The email is for those that want a comforter or multiple heavy blankets. As we were flying in to NC, we obviously didn’t bring bedding with us. Just be assured, all the linens are provided. Only beach towels are not provided but those are easily purchased if forgotten. The email was a little confusing. Enjoy the area!!
