Had to call the police on other tenants, it was said that the walls are so thin in the building that this is what caused the issue. The building was in poor condition and needing updating, door sticks in laundry room.

Kelsey’s mom’ birthday trip
Our trip was planned a year ago by our 6 year old granddaughter to bring her mom to the outer banks for her birthday. The place we originally rented called the day before we were to go and canceled our reservation for maintenance issues. I scrambled and found Ocean Pines Resort last minute for $300 less than the original place. I was skeptic but as always God is GOOD! Kelsey says be sure to give this place a 5star review. She (and the rest of the family) loved everything about it.

It was ok, after hours check in was not the best, the property itself is a bit outdated but the beach was nearby and private. Stores were kind of close and the area was pretty quiet and serene and I all other guests were very nice as well as the day staff.

This is the time of the year where you can enjoy the amazing sunsets from your deck, a quite walk on the beach, and short lines in our shops. I look forward to your return visit.

Don’t hesitate. This place is GREAT!
We had a fantastic 7 days at Ocean Pines in Duck, NC. We were fortunate enough to be assigned an ocean front top floor 1 bedroom condo so we could enjoy an ocean view. Only building A is ocean front and because of the dunes the ocean can only be enjoyed on the top floor. The condo is in need of updating but everything was very clean. I found our bed extremely comfortable. We were there the last week in October and although it was overcast and cool most of the week we still enjoyed our stay very much. We found it was close to many things and some great restaurants. We would love to stay here again.

Great visit to the beach
The apartment was very comfortable. It's advertised for 6, but as I was a party of 1, there was plenty of room. Everything was very clean. It was quiet and I felt safe. My room had a deck with an ocean view, and easy access to the ocean. I did go to the hot tub which worked, but could have been hotter (a note on the door said the heater wasn't working). Bring everything you will need as it's a bit of a drive to get anything; not walking distance, though there is a paved bike/hike trail next to the road. Yes, I would stay here again.

Comfortable, but not recommendable.
This resort is very outdated and underkept. Although it was mostly "clean", many of the fixtures, floors and sinks were rusted and dirty looking, making it feel a little icky. Especially the bathrooms. The property is very old. Decks are dirty and stained. Views aren't good at all, unless you're in the one building on the ocean or the one building on the bay, which I requested and did not get. Our deck looked right onto someone elses deck. No private at all. All in all, we were comfortable enough, and the people were nice and easy to work with, but will not be staying here again, and would not recommend.

The view is fantastic. Location very good. Needs upgrades to furniture, bedding and bathrooms. Musty odor mostly downstairs. Pillows unacceptable. Just needs a few more creature comforts such as pillows on the couch. Cushions on the deck furniture. Outdated in many ways. But the view and location were excellent

Just what the doctor ordered
Walk in the door and from across the room it’s all ocean. Master bedroom, lo and behold another sliding door and guess what! Yup, The ocean was out there too! The ocean front rooms are just that, not a little glint as seen through 2 buildings or if you lean just right, it’s all ocean. The condo was spacious and extremely clean. The buildings are older but the decor has been modernized. Plenty of tools in the kitchen and the furniture is sturdy and unscarred. The grounds are clean with plenty to do onsite and with restaurants a few miles down the road. We would absolutely stay again.

Loved the property. We had a short walk to the beach which was very nice. Kitchen was fully equipped with cookware and utensils. Bed were comfortable. The living room couches, not so much. Would have loved an ocean view but it seems only one building is facing the ocean and they may be the one bedroom suites. Playground, indoor pool and tennis courts were great for the kids. Overall we really enjoyed our stay here and would def go back. Amy at the front is super pleasant as well.

Ant house
Property looks ok when you arrive but ANTS ANTS EVERWHERE!!!! Very small ants were on coffee table, end tables. Cooking was a nightmare no where to put food while cooking because ants covered the kitchen counter. In master bath was on the toilet which wasn't connected, bolted to the floor and 2 hugh roaches (palmetto bugs)ran across the floor! We experienced a cool tropical storm it sounded like roof was leaking, our next door neighbors said during storm a hidden hole in roof/wall came down a bit, this was a mild storm? After seeing the place that obviously wasn't maintained properly we werent going to use an other amenities pool etc Our family has a small beach cottage on Cape cod and it needs yearly maintenance and sometimes more. The rugs are from 1970 and feel as if they haven't been cleaned since then, of course in nature there are bugs but not everywhere on everything in Property. So unfortunate the location from beach was good.

Clean though dated. Sliding doors and and interior doors did not lock. Building seemed cheaply built with wind howling through the cracks. Overall we enjoyed the stay. Late checkin was confusing since the email contained the wrong phone number but was socially distant. Liked the covered parking. We had everyhing we needed to prepare meals. Property is pretty. Game room is small and barely functional but exercise equipment worked and indoor pool seemed nice. We had fun with the shuffleboard, horseshoes, tetherball and tree swings. Employees wore masks.

I liked the view of the bay but only one building in the complex is on the ocean and when I booked, I thought we would be in the ocean front building. The one we stayed in is poorly decorated and furnished. The kitchen is not well stocked. There were no board games. Worst of all, they made us move locations during our stay, when that could have been avoided, as the unit we moved into was empty until we moved into it.

Thank you for your review. We are sorry your stay was not an enjoyable one. We do not provide board games there is a rec center with a pool table and ping pong table. We are sorry that you had to move rooms sometimes this is unavoidable if you are arriving over weekend as the units are deeded ownership and have different owners from week to week. We hope you will give us another chance to make your stay more enjoyable.
