We had such a great time!! As our time comes to a close here at the Outer Banks, I look back over the week at the fun memories we created. We celebrated a birthday, went to Sugar Planet, went crabbing and deep sea fishing, ate sooooo much good food and played in the pool until we were exhausted. I am so thankful for our week together The house was PERFECT! We’ve already requested the same week next year!!

Reviewer Comments: •HVAC, air filters were past due with being changed(someone from beach realty came to change after we contacted multiple times)•Stool in the kitchen was missing a leg•Basement fridge doesn’t close unless you have to force it shut. •No Propane for the grill•Poop in the outdoor bathroom •Dishwasher closest to the coffee pots does not latch to close and run dishwasher.•Landscaping not upkept for an “event” house- grass needed mowed, which we contacted multiple times to have it done for our event/ around pool needed swept and cleaned up •Upstairs freezer doesn’t stay frozen, food went bad.With it being an event house, and the additional fee we paid, it was just a little upsetting the minor inconveniences we ran into. Thank you for allowing us to give feedback, any questions or concerns please reach out.

We had families from both east and west coasts and we couldn't have dreamed up a better vacation. Everyone had their own comfortable room and space but still felt so together! The kitchen was so functional and we made so many amazing memories cooking and eating together. This home had everything we needed. The kids loved the pool and wanted to swim all day and night. The walk to the beach was quick and enjoyable. And the roof top deck!! So relaxing. Would definitely recommend and return!

Please note one of the gas grills has a bad starter luckily other seemed to work fine and two other charcoal grills available if needed. So much fun for kids playing volleyball and others using putting green. More deck space than I imagined and seating plentiful.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our first vacation in the Outer Banks was amazing and our stay at Mare Nostrum attributed to that. The location was great as it is close to shopping, restaurants, and activities. The beach was a little walk but no to far. The house was very clean and it provided a kitchen filled with what we needed to prepare meals. We had plenty of room for our group of 20 and especially enjoyed the gathering area where we could all be together. The pool is large and the outdoor area was great. Having our own volleyball court was a nice addition. Only a few minor things that would be nice to be repaired the washing machine makes a very loud rattling noise, the bathtub drains need to be cleaned so the water doesn’t collect at your feet while showering, and one of the bar stools is in need of attention before it breaks completely. These issues weren’t terrible and didn’t affect our wonderful stay but they need addressing. We would definitely stay here again! Our favorite vacation house for sure!!!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was perfect for our group of 12 adults and 5 children (ages 1,2,3,9,12). The kitchen has everything needed to make food and drinks - pots, pans, griddle, coffee makers, and blenders with placeware and seating for everyone. We spent most of our time at the pool which was clean with plenty of chairs and loungers to relax on. The pool and outside areas are gated so we didn’t have to worry about the little ones. There was a cart, umbrellas, and sand toys for the beach along with cornhole and lots of balls for fun at the house. We brought an easy up for shade at the pool, a canopy for the beach, and coolers for drinks. There are fun/interesting things to do in the area and stores, restaurants, and the beer garden are a short drive or bike ride away. Small negatives - the beach is not too far away, but it’s a process to get everything there with little ones. You can hear the kitchen chairs being moved in the bedrooms below (maybe some felt liners on the legs would help). The little kids could open the front door from the inside, but the baby gate kept them on the kitchen level.

Overall great stay .

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was definitely one of the best we've ever stayed in at OBX! It was exceptionally clean, beautifully decorated and stocked, and conveniently close to the beach and shopping. Our favorites were the pool, the beds, and the TV's in every room (for when you wanted a little quiet, private time.) My only complaints were that with no carpeting in the main living area, every move is heard loudly through the floor down in the bedrooms, and also we couldn't find a broom! A broom would have been nice to keep up on the sand and things on the floor. But overall, this house is a WINNER and I definitely recommend it!
