Wonderful!

Our family had a fantastic time staying at this home on our vacation. It was large, it was clean, it had everything we needed, it was easy walking distance to beach access. The widow's walk was our favorite place to sit and hang out.

Comfy but Dated

Home is spacious. Two of the 4 bedrooms have private baths. The 3rd and 4th bedrooms share a bath.The furnishings are dated (the online description notes that the home offers free long-distance calling). But the old furniture gives the place a "homey" feel, like going to Grandma's beach house.

Great house.

We loved that it was on a quiet part of the island with only a 5 min drive to things in the north and 20 mins both ways to towns. The beach was a short walk away. The house was roomy and supplied with a pretty full kitchen. Beds were comfy. Loved the spare fridge on bottom level so less carrying. Surprisingly, woody with NO Mosquitoes. The deck needs a lot of work and new couches and chairs. Pool was a 20 min drive but very worth it. We highly recommend this property if you like quiet vacations with short drives to towns.

A great beach vacation

Overall we enjoyed staying at Sandy Cay. If you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing location, this is it! The neighborhood is quiet and the house is only a short walk to the beach. The beaches here are not very crowded, which was a big plus, and the community as a whole is not terribly touristy. There’s enough to keep you busy but it’s not overwhelming. The house has a very welcoming homey feel. We loved the view from the rooftop deck. The upper deck is perfect for getting lots of sun, and the lower deck is perfect for relaxing in the shade. The screened-in part of the deck became the favorite room in the house. If you’re bringing a large group, there is plenty of room. We had a group of 7, including 4 teenagers, and everyone was quite comfortable. We cooked most days, and the kitchen was more than adequate with plenty of counter space. It has a variety of pots and pans, utensils, and bowls. Plenty of dishes and cutlery. It even has cake pans and your grandma’s ancient hand mixer that has withstood the test of time. There is access to a community pool , which was nice. They have clean bathrooms and shower rooms, and a separate baby pool. But be aware that it is 20 minutes away in the next town. This did not deter us, but I did not realize this prior to booking. And none of the previous reviews mentioned it. Overall we loved it at Sandy Cay and we would stay here again.

OBX Getaway

Myself and some friends decided to book a beach getaway in the Outer Banks. This how was quite affordable, is in a great location, and has plenty of room. I wish there had been more game/beach related items on property. The screened in porch and crow’s nest were the highlights of this house! We loved our stay and would book again.

Comfy beach house!

Our third visit to Sandy Kay! Nice how it's reasonably close to beach access. The large living room has lots of comfy seating and while the 4 bedrooms are not large, the beds are very comfortable. Nice food pantry adjacent to the kitchen, very helpful. Kitchen is quite serviceable, with a big peninsula countertop; 2 or 3 people can actually cook together. We love hanging out in the crow's nest up top at sunset (however, one should use caution and not allow small or rambunctious kids up there.) Generally a great beach place!

House of Contradictions

Let’s start with first of this house is listed as pet friendly but if you call and ask it is not pet friendly. When we arrived the house was dirty bugs on the counters in the kitchen. Dishwasher has dirty dishes in it. Floors were dirty many broken screens and burnt out lights. Vacasa Who this house is managed by does not care About your complaints. Highly unsatisfied

We enjoyed it

Our stay at the house was great, though I did notice a few minor issues upon arrival. A couple screens on the porch were not in the windows, one was broken; the wooden blinds on one of the windows was broken; couple other minor cosmetic things. None of these things hindered our vacation, they just weren’t lovely to look at. The location of the house was perfect. We could walk to the beach or get in the car and drive a few miles to the public access with beach driving. I do think the listing should be updated as the house can sleep 11 based on the beds they have available- 3 king or queen beds, 2 sets of bunk beds, and a trundle under one set. I would have probably booked a smaller house if the listing gave any notion that it was so large. Overall it was a great getaway and we will book with Outer Beaches again in the future.

This house was perfect for our small family`s quarantine vacation! Clean and comfortable, super close to the beach. The outdoor shower was convenient, and the beds were very comfortable. While the house lacks a dishwasher and the bathrooms are small and in need of updating, everything was clean and in perfect working order. We had a BLAST! Would definitely stay here again!

From making reservations to check out, easy and professional

Nice, location close enough to beach. Great design for larger family, nice privacy, quiet at night for sleeping, cool and comfortable. Slightly dated but overlooked that, it is a beach house. offered outside showers, wonderful decks and screen porch. Enjoyed our stay very much and would go back.
