About this apartment rental

Our heart is in this 900 square foot condo, but its more so in the town of Manteo. The condo sits on the second floor of Waterfront Condos on the street side. You will see that Mom and a few friends have decorated this place to the nines and you will find most everything in the kitchen and bathroom ( hair dryer ladies). Nice washer and dryer in the condo for your use. The kitchen is very comfortable to cook in especially for its size. The porch is great for enjoying coffee, lunch, cocktails or my favorite people watching. The beds are of the up most quality and we are sure you will sleep great after a fun day at the beach, a trip down to a lighthouse or simple walking the board walk in Historic Downtown Manteo.
Manteo is home to several restaurants, the Avenue, Ortega's, Hungry Pelican, Olives, Poor Richards, and Full Moon and Lost Colony Brewery. The oldest family owned movie theater has one showing nightly at 8 pm. Be sure to tell the tall burly man at the door Buddy Creef hello. Its $7 a person and $2 for drinks and popcorn. Makes it fun to grab a great dinner and see a show and not spend an arm and leg. Reynolds Barber Shop is around the corner if you need a trim for a family photo at the beach. If nothing else stop in to say hi to Ben and get some popcorn after 2 or so. You can hear some great stories anytime your waiting. There is a model light house in the south corner of the docks, Roanoke Island Light House, which sat off the south side of the fishing village of Wanchese. My Grandfather was stationed on it while he is the Coast Guard as a young man. There is a children's play ground with swings, slides, tables and chairs. The park is named after my grandfather for his 16 years of service as a Manteo Commissioner. As your seeing there is a bunch to do in Manteo and on the Outer Banks. It would be my pleasure to have you enjoy this property in Down Town Manteo.
Manteo is located just 10 min from the beach of Nags Head and home a 1000 foot pier, Jennette's, owned and operated by the North Carolina Aquarium system. The pier is a good place to park for the day with bathrooms, showers, and a great family owned beach shop and grocery right next to the parking lot, Cahoon's Grocery. They also have another Aquarium located at the north end of Manteo. There are putt putt, go go carts, jet skis, paddle board rentals, a large mall, the Nags Head Golf Links, and 10 restaurants within 2 miles of the pier.

A quick note about this property.

We have a duplex Dad s Pad ,# 1067106 and the other side Mom s home away from home, # 907506 is also in the Vrbo program along with another property two lots away # 1149486. All three of these are located in Nags Head.

We have had more fun checking guests in personally and telling them about our Outer Banks than you know and can't wait for future guests to come enjoy any one of our places. Mom made them super cute and beach themed. If you wanted to go on vacation with some other families but like your space also, we have the spot for you and our family restaurant , for the Nags Head properties the Dunes is right behind you for breakfast, dinner, carry out and a full bar with no driving required. Our places are safe and secure with storage for beach gear. We are looking to add some bikes and kayaks for 2018 and looking to continue to improve our listing quality for our future guest from all over the world with what to to do on the Outer Banks.
In the event of a hurricane or threat of one and you need to cancel. Not a problem! We give a full refund. We do not wish to profit from a storm and we will hope you can rebook at a future date and pick us and Nags Head year after year.

Enjoyed our stay at this condo. Perfect location for beach and cultural activities. The unit was clean, updated and well cared for in a great location in downtown Manteo. About a 10-minute drive to Nags Head and other interesting venues such as Lost Colony. Highly recommend

Looking for a nice place to stay for 3 days while experiencing our first trip to the outer banks with our adult son. Wanted someplace that wasnt super crowded where we could come back every evening and relax after a day of sightseeing. This was perfect. Was located in adorable Manteo which was quaint and we could walk to everything. Even walked to a small neighborhood theatre one night and watched Footloose. What a fun time. Found our favorite coffee shop (Charis Coffee) we walked to every morning and had the Crufins they make on Fridays that we loved (our host suggested those). Since it wasnt located directly on the Outer Banks it was much more affordable and we could still sit on the 3rd floor deck of the condo complex that overlooked the water in the evenings. We also made it a habit to go down to the first floor shops and hit up the ice cream place every night. The pictures dont do it justice. It was super clean and decorated so nicely. We are already talking about planning our next trip and will definitely stay here again. Also our host was great. You could tell he wanted everything to be perfect for us. I can't say enough about this place. It is a real gem. Carla

It was a tremendous week and the condo filled the bill of exactly what we were looking for. Last year we rented a home out on the beach and spent a lot of time not being on the beach. This year we moved our trip over to Roanoke Island and it was magical! Our adult daughters joined us as we spent the week of July fourth in Manteo--they loved the location immediately. This experience was flawless and the owner's check-in was extraordinarily easy! While most things were steps from the condo, what we couldn't easily walk to, was just a short car trip away. We have a hard and fast rule for vacations--we do not eat at chain restaurants and we avoid chain stores whenever possible. The economy in Dare County is dependent upon local small business owners, and we supported them 100%! It pays off handsomely as they bend over backwards to make sure the experiences are positive. NouVines on Budleigh Street became a regular haunt within a few days as the owners made us feel at home. The same can be said for the Hungry Pelican Deli, and Ortega'z Southwestern Grill. When it came to the fourth of July fireworks, this is where you want to be staying! Walk out the door, go to the waterfront and you will have the best seat in the house for the fireworks--which rivals many towns with much larger populations. Great location. The condo is well decorated and maintained with all the amenities you could wish for. Coffee every morning on the porch was absolutely wonderful!

We absolutely loved this lovely little historic harbor town so much. The location of the condo was perfectly situated between the boardwalk to the lighthouse and to stores and restaurants. We ate at both The Lost Colony Tavern and Poor Richards Sandwich Shop. Both were great and loved being able sit on the back porch and eat at Poor Richards. The condo looks exactly like it did on the website. It's very clean and is a very well-designed apartment w/ beautiful furniture and photos. The only setbacks to the condo were some minor annoyances that could easily be corrected. There is nowhere to charge your phones on the nightstands, the shower in the master bath was so slippery we both almost fell on occasion, and there was no toilet paper stand or place to put the roll. It's just sitting there on the back of the toilet. I also would have appreciated somewhere I could've sat my luggage on besides the floor. The quest room had a nice bench that my teen had in his room for that. Also, a TV in the master bedroom would've been nice too.

Such an awesome place to stay. The property owner was very communicative, he provided very detailed check in information and even some tips regarding the local area. Downtown Manteo is a beautiful area. The third floor balcony overlooks downtown and there is so much to do. With restaurants and shops within walking distance. It was a great place to stay when visiting OBX, as it is a quiet little town within 10-15 minutes of Nags Head and the main strip of Outer Banks. I would definitely stay here again and look forward to it.

This property is in a perfect location. My wife and I loved that we could walk to lunch and dinner each day. There is also a grocery store nearby if you need to pick up groceries or supplies. We went to the Pioneer Theater down the street one night to see Austin Powers. There is a lovely coffee shop around the corner. I took my bike and ride it around town and felt safe. Saturday night we took a short walk to Roanoke Festival Park to see the legendary Beach Boys. The property is extremely clean. There is private parking under the building. We felt safe and also felt our truck was safe. There is a delicious Greek downstairs in the building as well as a lovely ice cream place. We rate the service and property an A+. We plan to come again in the fall and possibly right before Christmas.
