Guest recommendations
"Ocean front and pool"
"Well stocked kitchen. Beach access. Large pool and bedrooms."
"Beautifully-appointed home in an excellent location. Always immaculate. Tasteful, personal touches in nearly every room make this house feel more like a home than a rental. One of the very best we've stayed in (and we've probably rented over a dozen in the last 25 years.)"
"Perfect beach home. Great location, beautifully maintained. We will be going back for our fourth straight year. John Skoczlas"
"Great place and fully equipped. Our family enjoyed our stay again this year. We are renting it for the third time next year. We really appreciate the Cabana service! At my age it is tough to lug the equipment to the beach."
"We had a wonderful stay at Far Niente! The views from both sides of the house were amazing. It was so nice being able to swim in the pool, and then simply walk down the private walkway to the beach. Great memories that we will cherish"
"Very well furnished and a great design. Fully stocked kitchen. Great location on the beach! Very comfortable home!"
"We all loved how well the kitchen is stocked with all kinds of utensils, etc. The home is well furnished, has great ocean views, etc., etc. It met all the expectations we have for a very expensive ocean front home. Liked it so much that we've rented it for the same time next year!! NOTE: Meant to tell you this when we left - the Disposall in the small kitchen sink does not work."
"Beautiful views both ocean and sound"
"Great views, well-designed floor plan and extremely well-stocked kitchen."
"The location is excellent and the home is very comfortable. The kitchen is well fitted out with any appliance one could ask for. Loved having an elevator which is a lifesaver for hauling luggage and groceries. The hot tub was a wonderful spot to warm up and chat."
Thanks for taking time to fill out a survey and for sharing your suggestions.
"Location, very-welled stocked kitchen, floor plan."
"Been there two years. Great house. Everything just perfect as far as my family is concerned. Midges and spiders an easily dealt with. Not the owners fault. Will always rent this beautiful and spacious home."
I glad you enjoyed the home and understand about the midges. We do have the house and furniture power washed about every 2 weeks but it only takes one night to regress. Glad to see you'll return next year
"The home is very well equipped. It worked very well for our family of 12 with a great kitchen to support all of our cooks. We came at the end of the summer and I would recommend that the owners power wash the decks and outside furniture several times during the season. They were covered in bug remains and spiders."
Glad to see you're returning next year and thank you for coming this year. We have been power washing about every 2 weeks but unfortunately it's very difficult to keep the bugs away. We have discussed this with the rental company and they seem not to have a solution. If it's bad when you arrive, please call them and ask for the house to be power washed.
"This was our second year at Far Niente and we loved it. The views were fantastic, the kitchen contained every possible utensil you can imagine, and some we had no idea what to do with. The living areas on all three floors were very comfortable and stylishly furnished. For our family reunion of 18 members, it was perfect."
"Great house with plenty of space for any size group to enjoy! Well stocked kitchen with any appliance or gadget you could want. Plenty of games and books to use during rainy weather. We loved our week at this house from the layout to the location - the owners have really thought of everything it takes to enjoy a week at the beach and more!"
Hi Jaime, Thank you so much for your kind review, and most of all, for choosing to spend a week at our rental home in the OBX. My husband and I are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. Best, Susan

"Amazing home! Spacious, great décor, great for large groups. We had the best vacation in this home! Owners sent a wonderful gift... we loved! Thank you"
"The house was roomy and well equipped. The views of the bay and ocean unbelievable. Our weather was perfect, as well."
"We loved this house! We’ve been coming to OBX for more than 20 years and this is one of our favorite houses. It has the best stocked kitchen we’ve ever experienced. The house is very well maintained and just a wonderful layout. Everything was great. I do want to thank the home owner who personally reached out to us prior to our arrival to assure us regarding the current pandemic situation. That was very kind and much appreciated."
