The Best Vacation Rental Property we have found in 10 years!

We have been vacationing in OBX for the past 10 years with the whole family, and this has been by far the best house yet. You can not beat the location and ocean views! We loved the layout of the house, especially the kitchen, which is very well appointed. We cook all of our meals and everything we needed was there. The open layout was more than plenty roomy and having such a large table to all sit down and eat together was great. The kids and older adults enjoyed putting puzzles together on rainy days, and the pool and hot tub were great. The decks are enormous, and the lower deck was perfect to be outside enjoying the ocean when the sun was hot on the upper deck or even when it was raining to stay dry. The deck furniture is very nice and surprisingly comfortable. And we even got to see a whale jumping and spouting! Take binoculars with you, you will be glad you did.
There was a lift on the outside of the house, the kind you can put your groceries and luggage in to get to the upper levels, but unfortunately it was not working. It would have been a great help to have it in working order as there are a lot of stairs for anyone who has difficulty with steps. Highly recommend this house!

Perfect Location, Beautiful home

House was perfect for our family of 14. Really enjoyed the views from the upper level area - perfect room to enjoy company and the beautiful views.

The Ultimate Beach House of my Dreams - Only Better!

Our family's stay at Alls That was a dream week in Paradise! What a beautiful home! The views are breathtaking both outside and inside the home. Making meals and even cleaning the kitchen is a treat with the ocean right out the windows and doors. I could have sat on the deck all day just watching the waves roll in. The open floor plan for the kitchen, dining room and living room is perfect, with the ocean view complimenting it all. The bedrooms are all wonderfully bright and comfortable. I loved the decorating throughout the house. The bright beachy feel is present throughout the home. Its location within walking distance of the Food Lion was another major plus for us. It was so convenient to walk across the highway if we needed something. Yet, it felt secluded and quiet at the house (with the sound of the ocean of course!) The pool was excellent. We enjoyed it every day. . . and at night too, thanks to the beautiful pool lights. The hose and outdoor shower and faucets ensured we could easily wash off sand from the beach before jumping into our private pool! We enjoyed the hot tub as well. The walkway to the beach is right outside and is so handy. Just grab a beach chair and stroll over the dunes. There is lots of space under the house for storing pool and beach gear. And the beach is wide, clean and private. We never felt crowded. It was so nice to be within sight of our beach house while at the beach. All week long we kept marveling at what a wonderful home and location we were blessed to be enjoying. This was our family's first beach vacation, and it was perfect. I researched so many houses, and Alls That had everything we were looking for and even surpassed our expectations. If we are able to return to the Outer Banks, (which we all hope to do!) I wouldn't stay anywhere but Alls That. Look no further! This is the perfect Oceanfront home. Thank you for sharing it!

Perfect location

First of all the positive...this is the perfect location on the Outer Banks. It is secluded enough that we had our own place on the beach every day. Besides that, the pool and the hot tub were quite a hit with my grandchildren. The layout of the house is nice with a great deck overlooking the ocean. Be aware that there are several sets of stairs which would make this an impossible place for anyone that can't go up and down stairs several times a day. The grocery store and restaurants are close. (We recommend Bros for sandwiches!) The owners were very helpful and responded quickly to our every question or problem. We had perfect weather and just an excellent time vacationing as a family of thirteen. We enjoyed exploring the new Shelly Island and collected an impressive amount of shells.

However, the house needs some major upkeep. While we were there the air conditioning, refrigerator, plumbing and washing machine all needed work. We had workers at the house many times during the week. At one time my daughter informed me that there was a waterfall under the house flowing right onto our car. It turns out the shower was not hooked up correctly. This was obviously a previous problem as the boards that opened to the plumbing issue had already been removed earlier. We were told that the refrigerator would be replaced Tuesday. After waiting until 3:00 at the house so I could empty the old refrigerator I was told that it would not be there until Wednesday. I suggested it be delivered on Friday as it was turnover day. The deliveryman said that was a brilliant suggestion...and then showed up on Thursday with the new refrigerator telling me it would take 4-8 hours before it was cold enough to use. The beds are not at all comfortable.

Overall, I think we have found the perfect area to vacation in the Outer Banks, but we will try a different house next time.

Loved the layout and decorations in the house

Our experience was great. We enjoyed having coffee in the mornings out on the deck and watching the ocean. We were able to cook as the kitchen is a full kitchen. It was a great experience for the 10 of us girls that made the trip.
