Beach Baby - Kitty Hawk MP 2.5, Oceanfront, 3 Bedrooms, Best Views on the OBX, Pets OK

It was great to be right on the beach; however, the pictures of the cottage being displayed are several years old. The pictures show this pretty walkway out to the beach. The walkway has been taken over by the dune and has grass growing on it. The back porch is sinking. It looks as if the owner is letting the property go. The half bath is on the screened porch and has no air. I believe the price is too high for what you get.

Rental was perfect for what we needed. Family of 4 with kids age 11/16. Quick and easy access to the beach. The outdoor shower with warm water was extra nice. Near a lifeguard but not crowded. Short walk on the beach to an ice cream stand (Arts Place/Winks) was awesome. Wifi worked great with all the kids electronics. Had enough kitchen equipment to warm up restaurant left-overs, cook mac&cheese, breakfast foods, and frozen pizza. Easy for door dash to find us. Most meals were eaten on the front or back deck. The dining and living room had comfortable furniture making nice gathering spaces.Location was a great jumping point for travel. North to the shops at Duck and parasailing, or South to First Flight Adventure Park at Nags Head. Quick access to groceries, pharmacies, and all the wonderful food in between.Not having a dishwasher or clothing washer/dryer was inconvenient but an easy compromise for the beach access. A small bottle of dawn and teamwork took care of us for 10 days. The wash house on Manteo has fast high capacity washers () and I was able to get mid-trip washing done in 1.5 hours. (No quarters, all digital).Turning left onto Croatan Hwy can be challenging. If needed, there is a stop light 2 streets North at Eckner (after Arts Place) or South a little ways at Kitty Hawk Rd (at the Black Pelican).We don't have fancy needs. Mostly to walk on the beach several times a day and eat good food. Would easily choose this property again.

We had a wonderful stay. The house is older but charming and had absolutely everything we needed. My husband and I, in our 60's, have some physical issues. This house is very close to the beach and the ocean so getting back and forth to the beach was a breeze. There were boogie boards, chairs, umbrella and beach canopies all provided. The photos on VRBO are not exact as the dunes have risen since the walkway was built but still super easy to get to the beach. We would stay here again. Good places to eat close by.

Location is great. House needs cleaned. Ceilings and fans are filthy. Mold in the shower is just nasty. Screen doors are construction fence not screening. Deck is falling apart in places. Dont plan on using the picnic table. It is unusable. Furniture is shabby and broken down. I could say more but will stop here

Rating Details: The vacation rental was very clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I chose this property because the photos showed a view of the beach from the screened porch/deck. I was traveling with a disabled person who cannot go out on the beach but wanted them to feel as close to the beach as possible. Unfortunately the photos on the website are old and the dune has been built up so that the view is now blocked. It is also so steep that beach access is difficult even for someone without disability. Photos of properties should be updated when changes like this occur. Propert was clean but we dealt with ants from the first day. Property is old and needs updating to be worth the price.

We had an enjoyable stay at Beach Baby. It’s a basic older beach cottage with nice outdoor spaces. The pictures of the ocean side of the house could use updating, as the view and beach access have been taken over by the dune. The dune is six to eight feet taller than when the pictures were taken. That said, it’s still a nice little place.

Just a short 4 days away in the nice and quiet of the day. No rush. No rules. No care. Just relaxing with the ocean

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is located right on the beach, excellent views and location to food and shopping places. The only thing bad was it doesn't have a washer/dryer, but the location overrides that.
