Jun 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The house was amazing and perfect location. Beach in front was all ours as it is situated in the middle between public access and no one came down this far either way. The beds were comfortable and room for all of us to be together and have private space. Kitchen was well equipped. Don’t worry about renting beach chairs or beach toys as there are plenty on site. We had brought beach gear and never unpacked ours as it had everything we could need for 6 adults and 3 kids ages 10-14. The game room on main floor was great for hanging out at night together. This is within walking distance to restaurants and shopping. Short drive to the 4X4 beach to look for wild horses, of which we saw many! We enjoyed the balcony’s, hot tub and pool at night. Great family location will definitely be back.

The property is between two public access points, so the beach is less crowded than at other locations. It is a good property to go to if you have kids and/or pets. ##### Gene V.

This was the second time for us at this property - we also stayed there last summer. Great for large family vacation. Just know that there are a lot of steps so if anyone has bad knees or ambulatory issues, this wouldn't be a good choice. ##### Claudia T.

Jan 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### NYE in the OBX Leslie and Cora were so pleasant to work with. Super informative and communicative. The booking process was seamless and easy. Check in could not have been any simpler. The house is in a fantastic location. It is spacious and just as described in the listing. We had a perfect time ringing in 2025 at The Caped Coral. My one minor complaint is that a lot of the dishes weren’t clean. But we’ve stayed at many houses in OBX and Topsail over multiple decades and it wasn’t the worst we’ve encountered. Overall, if you need a 7 BR house on the beach that legitimately sleeps 16 (no one has to draw the short straw and sleep on a pullout sofa) talk to Leslie and Cora and ask for The Caped Coral. ##### Erika P.

We kept watching all the people staying in the houses across the street lugging all their beach gear down the street everyday to the periodic beach access points and were so glad we had our own private access to the beach! Also, our part of the beach was less crowded the areas by the public access points which was nice. The pool and the hot tub were also nice to use when a break from the ocean was needed. Although the house was a little outdated on the inside, we didn’t spend too much time inside! Even if we had to there was plenty of space for everyone to spread out! ##### Matthew N.

Views are amazing. Bedrooms comfortable. Hot tub and pool terrific. Stingy w bath towels—I recommend bringing extra. And no beach towels provided at all. Neither the floors nor the pool were tots clean when we got there, but it is the beach, so.... we’d come again. ##### Kristin M.

The pictures accurately reflect the house except for one thing; the beach is much closer than it appears! The house was clean, the kitchen is well stocked. And though the listing says there aren’t any beach or pool items provided, the first floor closet is full of boards, floaters, sand toys, and chairs. There are also now 2 infant flotation devices. Would definitely stay here again. ##### Lisa B. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathleen E. Jun 28, 2018 #### Sunrise through to Sunset -- the perfect house. Fantastic house. The different age groups were able to gather in the evening in different spots for movies, games, puzzles. Open floor plan up top meant meal prep didn't cut you out of the loop. The access to the beach can't be beat. Being in the middle of the block = so much space to play! Rainy days spent with foosball and pool table in basement were easygoing sun recuperation days. We had a blast. ##### Kathleen E. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer M.

I had thought we would use the game room however being that close to the ocean, we spent our time exploring the beach, city and enjoyed meals together in dining area. The space was great when we needed to spread out and have down time. Lots of beach items to use. Beautiful and perfect location in the middle of the public access to beaches so it was not over crowded. Watching the sunrise from bed was amazing. Prior to arrival, the hosts were extremely fast at responding to our questions. ##### Jennifer M. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lori L.

We had a lovely trip with our kids and grands. a few of the mattresses need replaced the freezer would look like it was closed, but it wasn't closed completely. maybe the seal is getting bad. we did lose some of our food because of it. ##### Lori L.

The house was spacious with enough room for us to have our own quiet space and also offered many areas for us to gather as a family. House is right on the beach - views are amazing - saw dolphins every day! All of us spent countless hours enjoying the beach, walking, biking, reading or splashing in the waves. Pool and hot tub were enjoyed by all aa well as the pool table and foosball table on the bottom floor. As many other reviewers have stated this house is not the biggest or the shiniest house on the beach but it was clean and well maintained and had everything we needed to make our vacation a great week for everyone. ##### Karen P.

The house itself is a little worn around the edges but very comfortable and with plenty of room for multiple family members to spread out. Great amenities: game room on lower level with pool table and foosball, extra refrigerator and twin beds. Middle level with bedrooms and deck opening to hot tub and stairs down to pool and the beach. Upper level with well stocked kitchen and 2 more bedrooms. Clean bathrooms and comfortable beds. Plenty of seating for a crowd and deck with gorgeous view of the ocean. Food Lion grocery store and restaurants very close. Great spot for a vacation. But be ready to climb some stairs! ##### Laura K. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2018
