Stella Maris Review
House is close to beach and close to restaurants and shops. Loved the view of the ocean from top floor and deck close to dunes. Disappointed that the home was not clean. Dog poop on steps, very dusty, windows on second floor were filthy, pool was an eye sore, beach toys on deck. If you can't clean these homes adequately stop charging so much for the cleaning fees!

We all loved our stay, house was beautiful and location perfect!!! Only complaint was the knives and pans….pans were horrible to use and cook with and the knives would not cut. We ended up buying pans and a sharpener. Other than that we would definitely stay again!

Absolutely fabulous!
This place was perfect for me and my 10 traveling companions! Things we loved: the split levels allowing for a little privacy; the view; the big decks; ample parking; the telescope; the location; the comfortable living room furniture (where did you get those swivel chairs?!?!); the ease of regulating the room temperature over three levels; the number of bathrooms; the number of bedrooms; the huge dining table. Things we didn’t love: the yellow bedroom with the queen bed could use a mattress upgrade. The only other complaint (which is no fault of the property owner) is that the streets are pitch black at night, making it challenging to find the place after sunset. It turned into a running joke with our group. Thanks for a fabulous stay! I would 100% recommend to anyone!

Perfect location!
The location of this house was perfect and the ability to watch the sunrise from various locations at this property was priceless!! The house itself worked well for our large group however the kitchen wasn’t as stocked as well as it could be. This shouldn’t be considered a deal breaker by any means, it just means that the items are well used and certain items like pot holders aren’t available. I would recommend this house and will keep this house in mind for future visits. Thank you for sharing your piece of heaven with us!!

Beautiful property!
My family and I had such a wonderful stay! The location is perfect. Beach front and less than 10 mins to the closest grocery store. Near lots of shopping and restaurants as well! STUNNING views from the living area and kitchen. We all loved the dune top deck as well! We did have a few problems upon check in (broken toilet, wifi was out, and there wasn’t a charcoal grill even though the listing said one would be there). Within an hour and a half, a wonderful and helpful man came and fixed the toilet, dropped off a BRAND NEW charcoal grill, and then another man came to fix the wifi! In all my years vacationing in the OBX with different rental companies, I have never had issues like that be resolved so quickly and with such great customer service! We will definitely be booking with this company again in the future!

We were provided with incorrect information about grills
I made an inquiry about the availability of grills. This was important because we were planning on grilling our Christmas dinner entree. I was told that there was a gas grill and a charcoal grill available. There was no charcoal grill and the gas grill did not work properly. This resulted in the meat taking over an hour to cook and delayed our Christmas dinner. We could have brought our own grill but I trusted the information I received since I asked specifically. Other than that, we loved it.

The home was beautiful. The main level of the home had a fabulous view. We were disappointed the pool was closed, even though they advertised a pool. Cleaning could use some improvements as we found m&ms on the floor of our room. We would recommend the property stock toiletries and grill supplies, even of it was an extra cost. We would recommend this property.

Had a great time. Already booked to go back
We had a great time at this house. There were a few things that were broken and needed fixed. The dryer wouldn't dry the clothes. Eventually was fixed. Clogged lint line. 3/6 lounge chairs around the pool were broken. Sent a text to the company about it. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars on cleanliness was because we found lots of dirty dishes from the previous tenant and there were a lot of flies in the house and dead gnats on the kitchen window ledge. The kids thought it was funny watching Dad kill about 20 flies. The previous tenant could have left the door completely open the whole time letting in the flies. So it really wasn't that the property itself wasn't kept clean. Something we wished it had was another couch in the living room. Couch seating for 6, with a wicker chair, and a small bench. Really wasnt comfortable seating for 9 of us. However, we did enjoy ourselves. The kids had a great time. Some good things... the big table was great. There was enough room for everyone to eat and was comfortable enough to do some school work when the weather got bad. Extra fridge downstairs was great for drinks and extra food. Bedrooms didn't feel like they were so close together you didn't have privacy. Beds were comfortable. Much better than the other houses we stayed in. Hot tub was really nice. Both hot tub and pool were cleaned while we were there after the storm we had. Pool lady was really nice. I enjoyed the book the owners had by the DVD player. It's a journal for tenants to write things down in. Their adventures, things they saw, things they did, what they liked or disliked. We really did have a great time. Loved the house. We already booked it again for next year and can't wait to go back.

The house was beautiful and the views were gorgeous. It was huge. Everything was clean and ready for us at check in. The only negatives were very small and easily fixable. The shower curtain in the bathroom had mold on it. And the sheets on some of the beds were too small. They kept coming off. Like i said. Small issues and easily fixable. Would definitely recommend this place.

Beautiful beach
The location was perfect the house was beautiful and we had a wonderful time escaping for a few days. We wish the house had been a little cleaner. Mold on the shower curtain is such a simple thing to fix, wish we didn’t have to shower with all the mold. The roof was leaking during a storm which explained the moldy smell throughout the house.

Nice, comfortable vacation home
The house was up to date and comfortable. Beds were nice. The pool and the hot tub looked well cared for. The property manager company was very responsive and easy to deal with. The only thing that was unpleasant was some of the ocean front doors were very hard to open, but we reported this and they will probably take care of it.

Great location with beautiful views
Loved the location of this place. Views of the beach were amazing especially from top deck and main living area/kitchen. Loved that we could walk right to the beach. Had several master bedrooms which works great for multiple families. Felt that it could have been a bit cleaner - kind of dusty and linens in bedrooms were very old and dirty looking. Wish they had had more household items such as dish detergent, hand soap, paper towels, toilet paper, dish towels, garbage bags. If you plan on cooking bring all the spices including salt and pepper - none of that is there either. Also bring ice - ice maker didn’t work well in fridge. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay again.
