Joshua's Tiki Hut - Nags Head MP 11, Oceanfront, Elevator, Pool, Swim-Up Tiki Bar, Hot Tub, Pets OK

Property is needed a major upgrade or repairing .. from the broken refrigerator handle to the warped decking that is very unsafe.. and the mold growing by the outside pool because of leaking problems not only caused by the hot tub .. but outside elements too! it clearly was never handled correctly and exposed mold problems.. the screen door falls off…the entertainment pool table needs repairing and pool lights …etc very disappointing

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time as a family in Nags Head. Good things about the location: right on the beach, heated pool, plenty of room. Not so good things:Advertised outdoor bar/tiki - sink did not work - area had weeds growing in it and had not been cleaned in a long time. Cigarette and cigar butts in area and we do not smoke. Company did respond quickly by sending cleaners over however they weren’t quite sure why they were there and after they left butts we’re still there. I left text message about sink but never got feed back. Handyman was sent by to address loose boards on decking and I pointed out that whole upper part of back deck was loose. And wobbly. When I looked back on reviews I see that was a complaint several years ago. If we had been planning a gathering in the outdoor bar area I would have had to cancel. Overall the house could be cleaner. Floors washed a little more often. Some of the linens were stale smelling and shouted changed periodically even if not used. I would look elsewhere next time.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a big, beautiful home suitable for families, children and pets. Having a confined 'yard' for pets made it very convenient and safe for everyone to enjoy and not worry about dogs getting out. The pool is very nice for small children, and you can see and hear the ocean from the hot tub. The house is a bit 'worn', but the inside was very clean upon our arrival. Outside the house and around the pool area needed some attention and cleaned up of trash, left-behind toys, etc. Food and restaurants are very close by, and the beach/ocean views are beautiful from the living room and bedrooms. The only 'negative' to us was the proximity to the public access to the beach which is right next door. People from across the road or down the street drive in at 6am, park their vehicles and set up their tents and canopies on the beach directly out your beach walkway behind the house. Although the house is OceanFront, you must walk down the beach 40-50yds either way if you want to set up a spot for your own family, which was a disappointment.

Reviewer Comments: The home has a nice location, it was dirty, old soap in the showers, hair in the shower/tubs, the cleaning staff must have just given it a lick and promise. There was a rat in the tiki bar/pool location. The front yard needed to be mowed so you could enjoy the volleyball area. The backyard was not mowed and seems as if it has been like this for some time. Light bulbs were burned out throughout the house. The beds were comfortable. We had a good time, but we would not rent this house again. When you pay over $22000, you expect more. Also the hedge needs to be trimmed back so you do not scratch your vehicles going in and out.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House is laid out very well. It definitely needs some TLC for the price one pays for a week. The lawn in the front and back was fine for pups but not for humans to use. Volleyball area was completely overgrown and not usable. House furnishings need updating as well as several boards on the deck need replacing. Internet streaming service was very intermittent. Very little TV usage available. Not able to stream anything in the movie theatre area.

Kitchen has 2 dishwashers, oven, and refrigerators. There was also 2 sets of washing machines and dryers for clothes which we did use. There are 2 dining tables along with bar height bistro set that will accommodate large groups with a large living room area with sliders and windows that overlook the pool yard and beach. We loved the location to all the major attractions and restaurants. Really nothing was more than half hours drive away and plenty of spots within walking distance. And nothing was better than being right on beach. We arrived 4/20 so weather was a bit windy n cold but pool was warm, only one person jumped in, and hot tub was great! There is also an elevator.Cons- the house overall needs updating and a lot of minor repairs. The couches did have stains, furniture is older, some of the bathroom tiles needs regrouting and outside there is woodwork that needs repairing. Being right on the beach needs a lot of upkeep. The front yard needed to be mowed. We spent all our outdoor time on the beach and upper deck off living room. We had two issues during our stay. Upon arrival the house did smell like fish for two days and the back slider wouldn’t lock. Beach realty sent someone right away and we’re very accommodating. And also had no one called to let us know heating co came to do regular maintenance on compressor. Would I stay here again-YES!!! Loved coming in the off season!

As others have mentioned, the house is starting to show its age, but is still more than adequate for anyone's needs. There's plenty of room, location is great, the pool was wonderful for the kids - plenty warm enough even for the first week of April. The internet is so-so, and the clothes dryers don't work well, but other thn that everything is functional. Would definitely stay again if the opportunity arises!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a great house but has seen a lot of use! It’s getting a bit tired! If the rates stay reasonable, it’s a great deal. On the beach in Nags Head, close to everything! The dog yard is awesome. We stayed in February so didn’t use the pool/outdoor area but it looks great! The kitchen is well appointed. Lower level is nice, pool/pingpong and a movie room. Lots of dining area. Negatives: Heat was out on the 2nd floor and management company was responsive. We did have to wait until Monday to have heat which meant sleeping in bedroom on the ground floor. The mattress in that bedroom is horrible...unless you like an extremely hard mattress.The home was as clean as it could be. The bathrooms are in need of some work...showers have seen a lot of years, hard to get the tracks/bottoms clean. The master on 2nd floor has a tub with a handheld shower. The tiles in that bathroom need replaced, they are buckling. The sliding glass doors are all worn, hard to open.

Reviewer Comments: We arrived to a narrow driveway overgrown with bushes that limited our ability to access the house. After not being able to access anyone at the 3 phone numbers provided, we had to purchase a trimmer and trim the bushes ourselves to get in. Inside, there were more concerns-a microwave and washing machine that didn’t work, one dryer that didn’t dry, water bugs (they look like roaches) and ants. A makeshift shower curtain kept falling down and the bed linens are stained/dirty. The ceiling fan in the master bedroom made noise (a repairman was sent, though it continued to make noise during our stay) the fan was necessary because the thermostat had a hard stop at 70-you can’t adjust it below 70. The 3 level deck off the back of the house literally sways 4-5 inches when going up and down the stairs. The beach access was overgrown with sticker weeds and bushes. The pool was cold and dirty, once treated, it became cloudy and unusable for 2 days. The house needs some general updating and basic upkeep has not been done for quite some time. The rental company was receptive to our initial concerns and seemed to want to help, though the only thing that had follow through was the exterminator for the bugs and the repairman for the ceiling fan that didn’t resolve the issue.
