We had a family wedding at the Whalehead and found this the perfect place for us. Five branches of the family needed rooms plus a few singles here and there. We ended up being the central location for before and after gatherings each day. Our location was the only one with enough of a common area to comfortably have our group congregate and also provided plenty of entertaining activities. We are a competitive bunch and really enjoyed the ping pong, air hockey and other amenities. Pool area, new grill and proximity to beach big pluses. I will admit that certain areas of the place were a little dinged up (door on master bedroom cracked, but fine from outside of room), we were also missing a few pillowcases in places (extra/unused beds provided what we needed), and you need to make sure that when you shop for supplies, you get EVERYTHING. Minimal soap, paper goods, trash bags, no extra cleaning supplies, and no kitchen/cooking supplies as in salt, pepper, oil, (nothing). Rent many homes, I'm used to a small amount of that type of convince. Overall, great place to congregate and entertain. Perfect for multiple families with children.

This year we decided to bring our family together under one roof for Christmas, and OBX was the perfect place given the travel times from our respective destinations. 4 families, including two children 2 and under drove over 5 hours in a winter storm (not known at the time) to arrive at Millennium Sunrise. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a home noticeably unclean. We attempted to overlook this, but as the night went on, we noticed more things that were unkept, including floors that were not swept and a tub that had standing water as if someone had taken a bath recently. When we woke up the next morning, we realized that there was no water in the home at all. After calling multiple times starting at 10am, someone finally came to the house at 1pm. With 17 people in the home and 2 of those 2 and under, all the toilets became biohazards and unsanitary to the point of us having to leave the home to go to a local Harris Teeter to relieve ourselves. It was not until 4pm that we were able to move to a new place after the repairman confirmed a bursted water pipe. Upon getting to the new home, it was also apparent that this home was also unclean-- we noticed dust and even a used bandaid that was left in the bathroom. The worst part however was not having hot water for over 48 hours. We were reduced to washing our children in freezing cold water or extemely cold showers. After calling multiple times, we still did not get someone to the home until hours later on the day after Christmas only to be told that the issue was not something that could be easily fixed. By this time, we were due to check out the next day, so we suffered. Never could I have imagined a family trip resulting in this many issues within such a short period of time. A time that was supposed to filled with family and memories was essentially a stop and go ordeal of solving very large repair issues that should never have been the responsibility of us as guests. Furthermore, while there was customer service given, it was not enough and very reactive as opposed to proactive. Knowing that a serious storm was on the horizon, an email should not have been seen as sufficient. Guests should have been warned via text or call about the ensuing dangers and potential issues that may occur in freezing temperatures in an area not equipped to handle it. While the time cannot be replaced, I expect and would greatly appreciate full compensation that would help to at least make our family feel heard and seen for the experience we had this holiday weekend.

The house was great.! Clean and well taken care of. The deck furniture was amazing and everything you could think of needing in the kitchen was there including 2 dishwashers. If there was any drawback it may have been the beds were a little uncomfortable. I would stay here again and I hope to do so next year and the year after that.

Had a great time visiting. 3rd floor was a wonderful indoor / outdoor space. Great spot to see the sunrise in the AM without walking to the beach. Kitchen is a galley with 2 dishwashers which was a major plus. Game room was a plus on a rainy day. House needs a little touching up but nothing major. Some updating has been made lately especially in the bathrooms. We had a blast hosting our family reunion here.

Our family really enjoyed Millennium Sunrise. The house is really spacious, the decks made it feel so much bigger. When we weren’t at the beach the kids stayed in the pool or the game room downstairs. The kitchen is very well stocked with just about anything you’d ever need to cook/serve a meal for a large group (we had 13). We were all able to enjoy meals together and when needed there was enough space to “get away” and find a space to yourself. This property is located near enough to shopping/sightseeing/recreation that you don’t ever have to drive too far if you are interested in those things. We all agreed that we would visit again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The place was spacious, clean, and conveniently located. We will definitely stay again.

Great location! But cobwebs all over the decks and some inside. Needed a good power wash. But had two dishwashers, a grill, great variety of pots and pans. I want to stay in the house again next year, but will request an extra cleaning first.

The house is beautiful, just needs a little deep cleaning. Stained chair covers, dusty knickknacks, front entrance to home full of dead bugs. Over all I would give the home a B rating.

Bathroom mold and mold in the vents. 1 of 2 dishwashers did not work. Best outdoor furniture; Pool design safe for kids & pets. Great TVs. Thermostat was not programmable—a real hassle in the hot weather.

Close to the beach access! Great pool and area around pool! Outside furniture was amazing! The kitchen had lots of everything from extra plates, mugs, silverware to baking dishes. The owners have really taken care of the house and want people to enjoy it and it shows. Had a great time and will be back!

We had a great experience, love the set up of this home. Styled very nice and furniture very comfortable. Alot of space to spread out and enjoyed the games. Great location and easy walk to the beach.

Great stay, great location, great value.

Overall the house was in a perfect location to the beach and 4x4 beach so it made it very easy to hang at the beach. The house was perfect for our group of 16. It was much bigger in person then what the pictures show. Would definitely recommend.

Overall great house for a large group. Proximity to beach was excellent and house features 2 outdoor showers, pool and hot tub. Some delays in receiving response from property manager when requesting to extend our stay but overall a very good experience.

This house had a great location with easy beach access in a nice neighborhood. There was plenty of room for 2 families with a total of 4 adults and 6 kids/teenagers. Overall, the condition of the house was decent. It was somewhat dated and good use a deep cleaning (dead bugs in lights and windows, ants in kitchen, and a musty smell). For the overall cost of the house, we did expect the house to be in better condition, which is why we gave it 4 stars instead of 5.

We were a party of 17 and all enjoyed our vacation very much. We spent the majority of our time hanging around the house because we had so many things to do there yet we were very close to the beach. This property is not on the beach but right across the street from houses that are. The pool was great to have - we also enjoyed the hot tub and a large living areas for playing games and watching movies together. Some of the bedrooms are bigger than others and some share a bathroom . Property communication was digital which worked fine for most needs. Once we were on the property site putting in request for any thing we needed including maintenance or responded to an a day or less. I would have liked to have had a disposal in the sink and volleyball net in the pool!

When we arrived we noticed that there were thousands of insect bodies stuck all around the front door and other areas. It really detracted from the house. The owners should have the house power washed periodically. Also, check in is 4pm, but when we arrived at 5pm, the cleaning crew was just finishing up. They left a bunch of dirty cleaning cloths in the washing machine. On the positive side, the house is extremely well outfitted and furnished. There were so many pots, pans and utensils that it was almost overwhelming. The beds were very comfortable, there were large screen TVs everywhere. The deck furniture was in great shape and comfortable. The pool was very nice, but the gas grill only had one of its 3 burners working, and the igniter didn’t work. Fortunately we had matches. Despite the issues we had a great time at the house. Hopefully the owners will address the issues mentioned.

Wonderful location, spacious and well equipped home. Beautiful views. Kitchen is fully stocked with all the necessities needed. Ample Deck and pool furniture - very nice. Bathrooms and some furniture dated. Overall wonderful rental.
