5.0 / 5.0
The property was great. Plenty of room, nice furnishings, comfortable beds, and a very nice kitchen that was stocked well. We enjoyed the pool very much, and the walk to the beach was quick. The only issue I had was that the glass tables were not wiped down very well, and the counter behind the kitchen table was very dusty. Everything else was great. The owner is very kind and full of information about the area and we listened to his suggestions for dining out and were happy with those choices. We had a very enjoyable week at Fun in the Sun!
5.0 / 5.0
My family has been vacationing at the Outer Banks for at least a decade. We've stayed in multiple houses and, while each house has its unique features and charms, Fun in the Sun is by far the best property I've encountered. The house is exceptional, featuring many amenities and a prime location. Fun in the Sun is located in the Schooner Ridge neighborhood of Duck. That means that you are in the heart of Duck and a short bike ride or walk to the beach, the sound, shops, restaurants and the boardwalk.
In addition, Schooner Ridge offers multiple amenities including an oceanfront outdoor pool and a community center with a gym, indoor and outdoor pool. The house itself is magnificent. Decks for days, a pool and hot tub, 8 incredible bedrooms, a wonderful kitchen and living area on the top floor plus a spacious living area on the bottom floor. In addition, the owner is incredibly gracious, ensuring that your visit meets/ exceeds your expectations. I took this trip with family and friends following a year of significant transitions and this was just what I needed.
My guests were all equally impressed. I'm looking forward to staying at Fun in the Sun again. It was an incredible experience. Can't say enough good things. Thank you Mark!

Our family really enjoyed our stay at Fun in the Sun. From the private beach to multiple pool options, we loved it all. The house was very comfortable and accommodated our family perfectly. We really enjoyed the multiple deck levels and the pool and hot tub. Great location within an easy walk to shops, restaurants, recreation center and beach. Loved it! Thank you Mark for hosting us.

My large family, 11 adults and 7 children thoroughly enjoyed ourselves during our stay at Fun in the Sun!!!
There is absolutely ample space with 8 bedrooms and 8 1/2 baths, with each room having it's own private bath. The short walk to the beach was very convenient and family members came and went as they pleased. This home has a pool and hot tub which were a huge hit with the kids and some of the adults. We took advantage of the sand volleyball court on a couple nights while there with 12 or 13 of us playing. Even attracted one of the neighbors children while playing. Some of the adults and all the kids also enjoyed the basketball hoop on the large driveway
Duck is a wonderful vacation town with many places to eat and stores to shop, all within walking distance of Fun in the Sun. I think my car moved twice during our week long stay.
Mark and Kathy, the owners, are beyond excellent hosts. Mark and was hands on with support. We spoke several times via text or by phone over the course of the week. He was sincere with wanting to know if we needed anything and answering any questions we had. If all hosts were this concerned not only about their property, but about their guests, your vacations would be more fun than they are. Can't say enough good things about our hosts.
When we have need for such a large house on the Outer Banks again, Mark and Kathy with Fun in the Sun, will be our first call.

Property was well maintained, pictures didn't do it justice. Great neighborhood, close to the beach and to the town to check out all the local venues.

5.0 / 5.0
Our family had a very good time at Fun in the Sun. There were just a couple of items that might be fixed. Some uneven areas on top porch floor, mold in a couple of the bathrooms and the kitchen floor needs some work. But over all things were very good.

What a great property in Duck, a short walk or bike ride to the beach or town, with a great volleyball court, pool and massive deck! The pictures don’t do this property justice, upgraded TVs, new super comfortable beds and never ending amenities!
Mark was excellent, with quick and very useful information about Duck and the property. This property and its owners truly are great!

Really enjoyed staying here. House is huge with plenty of room for everyone. The location was great, convenient to the beach & town.
2.5 / 5.0
House is beautiful, & the kitchen is absolutely stocked with things you wouldn't even think of. You definitely wouldn't need to pack anything unless you have favorites of your own. The house has 2 high chairs (1 sits on a chair, the other attaches to the counter), a playpen, multiples of some kitchen household items. We didn't have any issue with the beds or the house. Mark is wonderful & will answer any/all your questions you may have before & during your stay. You can walk to the beach if you wanted or you can park closer at a designated area. We loved our stay & would absolutely do it again! Thank you Mark!! 😁🏖

House was well appointed and Mark was great.. Hands down one of the most communicative and easiest owners to work with that I've seen.
2.5 / 5.0
Fun In The Sun property was perfect for our large family vacation. The neighborhood was extremely quiet with the community center and beach access within walking distance. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for all. We spent every evening on the decks or in the screened porch while the kids enjoyed the swimming pool and hot tub. The kitchen was beautiful and extremely complete (even a crockpot)! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.
2.5 / 5.0
I've had an amazing time staying at this house. We were close to the beach and we had easy access to different shops and restaurants. The house was clean when we got there too. Nothing was broken or disfuncational. I will definitely come again.
2.5 / 5.0
“Fun in the Sun” is just an outstanding property – sooo much comfort, sooo many amenities (two ice makers, 3 refrigerators, 2 dishwashers a hot tub, a pool come to mind). I love how the multi-level floor plan comfortably accommodates sleeping arrangements for all of the extended family while the spacious upper floor provides a great common space with kitchen, dining room, screened-in porch, massive deck and large screen TV viewing area all seamlessly flowing for great family time! Located in the heart of Duck, Schooners Ridge offers a terrific beach as well as community fitness center, tennis courts, and indoor pool and easy access to all that Duck has to offer (Restaurants, Shopping, Market, etc). A special note about Fun in the Sun – BLAZING FAST WIFI/INTERNET ACCESS! This is key for teenagers and adults alike and has been an issue for us at other properties (even in paradise, sometimes you need to check in on things at the home or in the office..). Highly Recommend this OBX Jewel!

Family and friends keep coming back since 2009. Each year we have seen improvements. New refrigerators. New ice makers. New TV's. Then one year, a new kitchen! Set up your "camp" at the beach in the morning. Come back for lunch. Leave your stuff down there as Schooner Ridge is neighborhood access only. Back in the afternoon for more beach and happy hour. So close to downtown Duck you'll feel bad about driving. Take advantage of the boardwalk on the sound and the shops along side. Back at the house, the new kitchen is great for crowds to cook in and eat. We eat at home every night and at the very least its 10 of us. Plus its stocked with every utensil possible not to mention the pots, pans, plates and silverware. Oh and two dishwashers.
A word about the owners. They called to check in as we've been return visitors. I mentioned the hammock on the lower of two big decks was a little weary looking. The next day a new one was in its place.
Its things like this that keep us coming back to our Summer vacation home.

We've been coming back to this house for 9 years straight nowadays it could be better. With all the space (8 rooms) everyone has a place to sleep. They have this great top deck that towers over the other houses and you can even see the ocean from it! 10/10 would recomend this house to anyone.
2.5 / 5.0
This house was absolutely perfect for our family reunion in Duck. We have never stayed at a place that had so many amenities. It is obvious that the owners went out of their way to think of anything anyone would need while staying there. Bedrooms and bathrooms were perfect, living areas were spacious, so much room to spread out. The two ice makers, 3 refrigerators,2 dishwashers a hot tub and pool made things so easy. I love the granite counters in the kitchen and the spacious eating area, to accommodated our large family perfectly! The kids & adults loved the pool at the end of the day as we prepared dinner. This house is perfect for families or large group of adults. We would definitely recommend "Fun in the Sun" to anyone wanting a carefree vacation with all the comforts of home. Thank you our family enjoy our stay in your lovely, fantastic beach house.

While looking for a place to accommodate my large family for our parents 40th Anniversary celebration I was very skeptical there would be a place to fit all of our needs. Well... This place has everything a family could possibly need. The home has amenities that met needs of each individual family from the fitness center that is almost out the front door, the pool for the smaller children who couldn't handle the beach for long and the ice machines that kept the adults happy with great cocktail hours. The kitchen is large and easy to navigate, the guys just loved the screened in porch that allowed them to sit and talk into the night. Bathrooms connected to each bedroom was heaven! The kids also used the indoor pool at the club house a couple of days when the heat index was 107. Any situation that came up, this property met our needs and then some. And the owners are just amazing to coordinate with. We highly recommend this place, just be ready for some major "FUN IN THE SUN"!
2.5 / 5.0
We have family all over in several different states, so to get together is a rare treat! This place was big enough for 3 good sized families and Grandpa! We wanted Grandpa to never forget this vacation because he has alzheimer's disease. We got that and more! We were walking distance from the ocean and from a great rec center!
We spent time at visiting some of the local sights: Wright brothers museum, Bodie Island lighthouse and more! We really didn't have time to do everything in a week's time. We took pictures at the beach, kids in the pool, family photo on the pier, all the sight seeing we did, relaxing at "Fun in the Sun", etc.
We had a great time! We relaxed and had a blast together! Best of all, Grandpa will never forget this vacation! Truly, this was priceless!!
The house had everything we wanted and much, much more! Thanks! We will be coming back. Next year's vacation can not come soon enough!

We have stayed at this home several times now and the owners are always adding something new. Great amenities, close to everything and a fun place to kick back and relax.
Can't wait to visit again!!!

This house has everything you could possibly need for a stress-free, full-filled week in the Outer Banks. The decks on the house are amazing and even have a hammock for a nice afternoon break. The pool and hot tub were clean and the perfect addition for when we came back from the beach. The house is a short walk to both the beach and the REC center. The beachfront pool is such a luxury and wonderful plus to the community. We enjoyed the REC center which has tennis courts, indoor and outdoor pool, a exercise room, everything you could possibly need. We had many different family members with us this trip and the eight bedrooms made it easy to make sure everyone had a bed to sleep it. This house is fantastic and can't wait for our next summer at Fun in the Sun!
