Great House/Location

This was a special getaway for our family to celebrate a loved one. Jan's place was ideal. Clean, well-stocked, beautiful views, comfy....close proximity to another family members house down the street. Would definitely rent it again.

Great Vaca

Nice house. House had a leak earlier in the season and needed floor repairs which according to owner was scheduled for the off season. Decks were amazing to sit on in the evenings and watch the waves roll in. We are breakfast and lunch on the lower deck most mornings. Plenty of room for the family to spread out. Would stay here again.

Attitudes had an attitude

We arrived after the check in time but the place wasn’t ready. The first day had to call property manager because the one toilet was leaking. The next day the fan to the air conditioning unit broke off so we were without air conditioning for 24 hours. The property manager was fantastic and was very prompt to respond to issues. Had the air fixed in 24 hours but it was quite uncomfortable even with the one window air unit in the downstairs and one upstairs that the property manager put in to help. The floor in the hallway to the main floor bedroom felt like you were going to go through it. We also found food pieces in the furniture and under it. I was very displeased with the cleaning. The location of this unit is prime and the property manager was super as well as the owner’s communications.

Beautiful location, house needs some improvements

We loved the location of the house and the beach, it wasn’t super crowded and was such an easy few steps away. The kitchen was well stocked - but overall, the house could use a lot of updating and improvements. There were no screens on the sliding doors or windows which was disappointing, because we wanted to enjoy the breeze without worrying about letting in bugs. There was not enough room for all 12 of us to be together, there are only 8 chairs at the dining table, room for 6 on the couches, and room for like 8 outside - this was also disappointing, we were there with family and wanted to spend time together and the space was not able to accommodate us. I would not want to stay with 14 people, that’s entirely too many people for this house. There were several soft spots in the floors, and water was leaking from the upstairs toilet. The house was very worn down, and same with the furniture, it definitely looks like a heavily trafficked house without the TLC and updating. The cleanliness of the house could be improved as well, it didn’t seem super clean upon arrival. We loved the location but we will not be staying here again.

Beach front

House is great for a family with kids. Two bedrooms can fit four kids each. Both ocean front rooms were great and main floor bedroom was just right for my teen. Kitchen is well equipped. Closet has chairs and beach toys and deck has nice outdoor furniture.

Great Place

This place was wonderful, a short walk from the patio to the beach, great view, and plenty of space. The only downfall was the cleanliness of the property, it seems the cleaners could be a better job. Other than that this place is wonderful and would highly recommend!

Great location!

Had a wonderful stay and Jan was so easy to work with. Had to wait to get into property (after 3:00) for cleaners to finish up and I think they missed the main bathroom. Brought some Clorox wipes with me and cleaned it. Other than that the new deck was awesome for crawling babies to be on. Thanks for a great vacation!

Lovely oceanfront place!

I very much enjoyed my stay at "Changes in Attitudes." The kitchen was well-furnished and spacious enough to have more than one cook in the kitchen. The floor plan was open and comfortable. We enjoyed having a large dining table both for meals and playing cards and games in the evenings. I loved having only two floors to navigate instead of three, and I particularly enjoyed having the main living area on the lower floor. It meant less going up and down stairs when you came in from the beach or came back from a grocery run. The main deck had comfortable furniture, and several in our group enjoyed the smaller, lower deck closer to the ocean. It made for a nice reading spot. Having three full bathrooms and an enclosed hot/cold outdoor shower meant there were plenty of options for cleaning up after being on the beach all day. The beds were comfy. The rooms were nicely sized. All in all, it was simply lovely. Jan was fabulous in providing us a wealth of information and responding to any questions or concerns we had. Finding ocean front property that is comfortable and doesn't cost a small fortune is a challenge. This one is a winner. I would definitely stay there again!

Great family rental

This was a 3 generation family vacation with 7 adults and 6 children (2 thru 10). The house was just as advertised. The location was perfect with plenty of parking. Although it is a duplex the shared porch and beach access was not an issue even though our neighbors had nearly a full house. We found it to be a great value for a beachfront location at the end of June.

Family Trip

The property was very spacious and the bathrooms were nicely updated along with the new deck. it would be nice to have some kind of dividers on the decks to help with the feeling of being with just your group. There wasn't anyone next door so this was very nice for us.

Wonderful Thanksgiving

We truly enjoyed staying at Attitudes. We had ten people ranging from 6-74 who all had a wonderful time. The location and beach access were fantastic, the bedrooms well appointed, the washer/dryer so helpful and the kitchen well-stocked. We enjoyed a whole week at Thanksgiving and wish we could have stayed longer. Both the owner and property manager were very helpful.

Ideal location and perfect size for our family reunion!

Seconds to sandy feet, this beach front property provides a 24/7 gorgeous view of the ocean with balconies off two bedrooms and the kitchen/living area. Lunch on the large deck outside or around the generous family dining room table. It was just the right size for our family of four adult kids and their families, which includes three small grandchildren. It’s situated on the island close enough to walk to fresh bagels, the local movie theater or drive to Publix grocery store. We enjoyed beautiful warm weather the first weekend in November!

Fell in love with Emerald Isle.

Perfect location and really enjoyed the mornings drinking coffee outside. One morning a deer walked right in front if me:). House could use a few more lamps - 2 of the bedrooms only had overhead lights. The master bath upstairs needs a deep cleaning or possibly updating. We would definitely stay here again!

Changes in Latitudes

We loved our week at the beach! With 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, we were able to have enough space to have privacy and still enjoy each other. We had wonderful dinners around the big dining room table and even enjoyed a couple of late night movies all together in the living room. We grilled out one night, great grill!!! We used the sand chairs for a whole day at the beach. Great location - close to eveything we needed. And we really needed to be a family all together again. Thanks, Jan, for an amazing week!!!

Great house right on beach

This is a great house right on the beach with wonderful multi-level decks that offer shade, full sun, and/or bit of shelter from the wind. Owner was very responsive when coffee maker died. Kitchen is reasonably stocked, but floor is uneven. Seven friends had a great time and we’ll be back
