Come take a Trip Around the Sun in this oceanside home with views that you'll be dreaming of long after your vacation ends! Under new ownership, if you're a returning guest, you'll quickly notice the many unique furnishings and comforts that will make your stay exceptional. The lower-level recreation room offers a pool table, a TV and DVD player, a kitchenette, an exercise bike, a sleeper sofa, a twin bedroom, and direct access to the outdoor seasonal pool, plus two private outdoor showers. Up one level, you can soak in the seven-person hot tub while enjoying the company of good friends. Four coastal bedrooms surround a tile foyer on the second level, while the penthouse level boasts two more fabulous bedrooms with breathtaking views from the private balcony and windows.
Every newly decorated bedroom comes with its own TV and a beach-themed private bathroom. Free WiFi is available throughout the home, so you can research your favorite recipes or a new beach adventure any time you like. The expansive kitchen offers the family chef the ability to get creative with that fresh catch while you uncork a bottle of wine from the beverage cooler. Enjoy your culinary creations in the dining area with enough for everyone, surrounded by endless over-size windows that offer a picturesque view of the waves rolling in. Go for a bike ride or play volleyball on the private court, take in the stunning ocean views from the porch swing and outdoor picnic tables. Or, just kick back and soak up the sun in one of the deck chairs. The fish-cleaning table will make cleaning today's catch quick and easy.
During the day, move out onto one of the expansive wraparound decks to relax under the ample shade. After sundown, kick back to watch a movie on the 55-inch screen with the new audio system in the great room with a vaulted ceiling, a wet bar, a game table, and a fireplace. Afterward, snuggle into that deck chair and take in the stars - you won't believe how many you can see. Watch the moonlight on the waves or build a bonfire on the beach. This is the destination you've waited for all year. When your time with us finally comes to an end, don't forget to book next year's stay! We sure would love to have you take another Trip Around the Sun with us!

Nice home. Ample parking. It is a lot of stairs if you stay on the top floor which did get exhausting, but we knew before booking, and this is typical of a house this size. Kitchen very spacious.
4.0
The location was great. It was well stocked, even toilet paper. The bedrooms/baths were smaller then I expected but that was ok because we were either at the beach or pool. Furnishing/bedding/towels are starting to be “well used”. Our only real issue was getting in at 6:00 and having the place poorly cleaned (vacasa resolved the issue) but it was a tough way to begin the vacation.
5.0
This is a very nice beach home. It was very spacious with lots of nice amenities. It is just a short walk to the beach, which was relatively uncrowded. Also, it was one of the cleanest houses we have ever stayed at in the Outer Banks, and there have been many. Only complaint is the wi-fi is a little weak.
4.0
Home was well equipped. Kitchen cupboards were not cleaned need to be wiped out. Trash cans were full when we arrived, making disposal of our garbage difficult also increased the fly problem. Extra pillow cases would have been nice there were plenty of pillows just no linens also there were no linens for the hide a bed .
Location was great. Views from the deck was amazing. The lay out of the house was ideal for our family.

First time in Hatteras - normally stay in Nags Head - and we loved it. House is well stocked, comfy, great views, and close to beach. Definitely one of the nicer places we have stayed.

Perfect fit for our family with every bedroom having it's own bathroom! Huge open floor plan on the 3rd level for the kitchen, dining and living room areas with awesome views with adjoining decks. Loved that the linens were supplied. Hot Tub was lovely as well, just wish we had arrived in time to enjoy the private heated pool as well. We would love to come back again. Stores are close by for supplies as well as shopping. Thanks for an awesome mini vacation for our family!

Last trip to OBX
I loved the beauty and attention to details on things I found in this house that I have not found in other rentals in OBX. I also loved the location of the house, as we did not find much traffic going past our rental. I loved the amt. of chairs on each deck & the amt/condition of the chaises surrounding the pool. As I believe this to be my last trip from PA. to the Outer Banks (I'm 82 and have had 7 back operations), I'm very glad to have chosen "Trip Around The Sun" for my last trip!!

Extremely Enjoyable Vacation
This home was perfect! Although our goal was to be at the home very little, taking advantage of the beach, when we were at the house, it was beautiful! Everyone had more than enough space for themselves. We will try top stay here again!!!

Home away from home!
We had an amazing time at Trip around the Sun! The house was clean and set up ready to go when we got there. If we had any issues we texted and they were taken care of as soon as possible. The walk to the beach was like 5 minutes. We will definitely be staying here again!!

Maintenance Required Now
While the house, beach, and location are lovely and we enjoyed falling asleep every night to the sounds of the waves crashing the house is in need of maintenance. It was large and we loved the kitchen and living room and it was ample space to host large dinner parties of upwards of 30 people. There was plenty of refrigerator space and the double dishwashers came in very handy. The hot tub was large enough for 5 adults to comfortably soak. I can not comment on the pool as it was closed for the season.
As for the overall condition almost every screw/nail is popped 1/8-1/4 inch out of every board on every level of the house, I'm still not sure how none of the kids managed to need a tetanus booster. Be very careful with the railing on the kitchen level as it is not solid and any weight will likely cause it and you to crash to the ground. The towel rods are pulled from the wall in the master bedroom on the 4th floor and only one of the shower doors open.
There are burnt out light bulbs and some of the shower curtains have mildew. There is a half inch of dust on all the ceiling fans and we found empty pop bottles and wrappers behind the headboard in one of the rooms.
While the property boasts a pool table there are 2 large rips in the felt and not one of the cues have a tip so it is not possible to use it. Every room is supposed to be equipped with a flat screen TV and cable but we only manged to get two working, most are not hooked up to the cable and the remotes do not have batteries. Also the porch swing is not put up and is just laying on the deck. The lack of out door chairs was obvious when we visited our friends house across the street. The house has 7 bedrooms but only 5 chairs total, scattered throughout the numerous decks.
The kitchen has plenty of pots, pans, dishware, and utinsils but needs a decent can opener both the kind that takes the lid completely off and the one the just pokes the triangles. We had to barrow one from our friends in the other house.
Over all I was disappointed and think that until the maintenance issues I mentioned are addressed it is over priced because you can not enjoy many of the listed highlights. If these things are corrected it would be a very lovely stay and worth the price.

Perfect location for chillin
Perfect location for the family that likes space on the beach for boarding and playing, not crowded and family friendly neighborhood. Far but not far from all needed amenities. The house was a great size for the families. The room with bunks was not comfortable for 4 teenage boys. They all complained of bed springs poking in their backs (these are not overweight kids either) and there was no fan in this small room so it was stuffy and hot.
There were various spots On The carpeting from previous dog stays that didn’t seem to get cleaned up very well. The house could use a good deep clean as it was a bit grimey. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed and plenty of seating for eating. More seating in the living room would be a plus as only 7 can sit comfortably. Hot tub had things floating in it like the filter wasn’t working, yuck. Overall all 15 of us had a great time!
