Welcome to La Bella Vita! Creating the very best vacation experience for you is our goal. This year we installed a garbage disposal in the main kitchen, modernized the dining room table and chairs, and added new bar-height chairs for the breakfast bar. In the Great Room, we added a large sectional sofa for group gatherings/movie nights and new lamps for lighting. Stylish Sisal rugs add functionality and comfort in both the Great and Dining Rooms. In the bedrooms, a variety of enhancements include: new comforters for some beds, updated dressers, a new mirror, fresh paint and updated artwork! The Game Room has been rearranged to a more spacious feel (see updated pics) and we added a handful of new games - Picasso Tiles, Trekking the National Parks, Carcassonne, Original Trivial Pursuit, Rummy Tiles. We installed a Tesla Universal Wall Connector Level 2 EV Charger in the carport and added two Big Kahuna balcony chairs and table for more seating around the pool.
Remarks some families left in the guest book from 2024 say it all:
“We loved this house last year and were thrilled with all the changes you made. The rec room had so many fun things. It was a big hit!”
“Such a beautiful home! Great location for beach access & everything we could need for a vacation. Game nights (great game room!) and beach access were our favorite moments.”
“We've been coming to OBX with our kids and extended family for 24+ years and this is the best home we've rented. Our dog Arwen give it 4 paws up.”
