Best beach vacation in years
Submitted: August 23, 2011
Stayed: August 2011
Just came home from a fabulous week at the beach. This condo we stayed in, #2 was perfect. The view from this house and the convenience to eating and activities for all ages was bar none.
We fished and walked on the pier, we ate seafood and burgers at the best little hole in the wall shack located a few hundred yards from our front door. We biked, went on the ferry, went to the NC aquarium, did a crab catching marsh adventure offered through the aquarium, which was super fun for our whole family. There's even an arcade close by for the kids. Lots of shopping close by as well.
The only thing that topped this experience was the perfect weather, which we did order at no additional cost. The beach, which often times is not my most favorite thing to do ALL DAY, ended up consuming much of my days. Ocean was beautiful and perfect for boogie boarding in sand was clean and easy on the feet and inside the swimming suits. Although, I still recommend corn starch for little boys who somehow manage to get buckets of sand caught in their trunks.
The owners of this condo were also very accomodating and happy to make this a great experience for their renters. The kitchen held 11 people very comfortably for cooking and eating, and their was lots of space to spread out when going to our rooms for the evening.Bathrooms were abundant as well.
Finally, the mother-in law quarters, located off the garage of this residence, ended up being called the "man cave" for 5 boys ages 6 - 13. It was by far their favorite part of the house(adults were rarely welcome) and we were happy they had a private place to set up house.
Awesome experience!!! We're definately coming back and requesting this condo or the other one that has an even better view than ours. FYI - Our view was fabulous.
THUMBS UP!!!
