Points faibles : Propreté
Dune Nest
I’ll start on a positive note - communication with the owners was good. I liked that the unit was self-entry via a keypad. And I liked that this unit was ocean-facing and just a short boardwalk from the beach.
However the property, building, and unit were all very dated and run-down so we were disappointed with our stay. Most importantly was safety; I would not feel comfortable staying there as a single woman as the parking lot and stairwell were poorly lit and there was no deadbolt on the main door. Also, the unit needed a deep clean; although the surfaces appeared “tidy” there was still visible dust in all the corners and on the fans, etc. I’ve never paid for a rental where I was asked to provide my own linens, towels, or toilet paper. Ultimately, I was glad we were forced to bring our own sheets and towels because I wouldn’t have felt clean otherwise. I wonder how long it’s been, if ever, since the comforter or pillows were washed? The bed (queen-sized) desperately needs to be replaced as it has a major sink hole in the center and made it extremely uncomfortable to sleep in. Likewise, the guests are asked to vacuum and take out their own trash, so it brings into question when the unit gets thoroughly cleaned in between guests. For how expensive this place was, it was shocking how little the owners provided for amenities or conveniences.
Anyways, this rental is fine if you plan to explore the OBX and not spend much time in the unit beyond sleeping/showering.
