Wonderful Getaway

Although it was winter weather, the break from home was wonderful. By far, one of the easiest vacations I have ever taken! I would love to visit again in the summer time or early Fall.

Great couples get away

If you need that get away weekend for two, you will be hard pressed to find a better place. My wife and I celebrated our 37 years together and this place was perfect for the two of us. Clean and from the deck the view was fantastic.

My boyfriend and i had a very nice stay here at Turtle Tides ! although we stayed out of season, the property was clean and gorgeous and the views from the deck did not disappoint ! we had a little trouble getting in and Gene was very attentive and took the time to talk us through getting in quickly and kindly.

Excellent vacation spot

My wife and I stayed in this vacation rental while we ran the OBX marathon. Absolutely beautiful get away spot. Perfectly located for great dining. While recovering from the race we enjoyed watching movies with the ocean in view from the couch. Definitely a great place to relax and enjoy the outer banks.

Great week long retreat from the grind of life!

Turtle Tides is a great 3rd floor penthouse for two. We enjoyed the full kitchen, direct beach access from our private deck and the great views. No need to walk down the stairs to the beach, just walk out and enjoy a hot cup of tea listening to the ocean waves from the balcony. Also Gene’s picks for places to eat are spot on! Will be going back for sure!

The property was beautiful and the view was spectacular! Our stay was relaxing and just what we wanted it to be. Neighbors were few but friendly and the penthouse was all we could ask for. Being in our late 60's the steps gave us a run for our money, but we got our daily excercise! We would rent it again.

Great place on the ocean and centrally located

The condo is decorated so nicely in the beach/turtle theme and is a very pleasant place to stay! We loved having coffee in the morning on the deck while watching the sunrise over the ocean and being able to walk right out onto the beach. The view is wonderful. The location is centrally located to explore both North and South parts of the outer banks and within walking distance to many restaurants. The owner was very responsive, and checked in several times over our short 3 days to to be sure all was perfect for our stay. We can't wait to bring family back next time! Be aware that the there are a fair amount of stairs to climb to get in, so those with mobility issues may have trouble
