This is a beautiful home filled with TLC. It has amazing views, very clean and the host was very kind, responsive and personable! Would definitely stay again!

We very enjoyed our Thanksgiving week stay. All was as represented in the property description and communication with the owner/manager was quite smooth from booking to post-departure. Recommended!

We had a great stay at Retrouvaille. The home is handicap friendly and the elevator was very helpful as the spacious main bedroom, kitchen and living space are all on the upper level. It is in an ideal location and the views from the large porch are spectacular. The owners were responsive and checked in with us while we were there to make sure our stay was going well. We will be back.

A Beautiful house and location! The views are awesome. We enjoyed our stay. The house is very well equipped, very clean, and the property manager was very responsive when needed( which was only once for a tv channel find). Definitely plan to visit again and soon.

on a great stretch of beach.

Retrouvaille at Pine Knoll Shores was the perfect beach rental for us grandparents (late 60s), three grandchildren (ages 7,6, and 5), and their parents (late 30s, early 40s). We can't wait to go back! The house is lovely and obviously well taken care of, with plenty of room to spread out, comfortable furniture and beds, and a well-equipped kitchen. We can hardly wait to go back! Jeff, the owner, was prompt to respond to inquiries and deal with internet issues (weather-related) that arose. He is definitely a super host!

Wonderful location in PKS. Breathtaking views of the ocean. Key for us with old folks and toddlers, easy ocean access, and an elevator. The downstairs, with a king bed, and private bath, And play room with bunkbeds, was perfect for my son, his wife, and two small children. It is a gorgeous place to stay. and play room with bunkbeds, was perfect for my son, his wife, and two small children. It is a gorgeous place to stay.

We had a wonderful week at Retrouvaille! The main reason we chose this specific home was due to accessibility concerns; the elevator was crucial for allowing us to bring our whole extended family to the beach including my in-laws who have significant mobility issues. The house is fully accessible to those who have issues going up and down stairs. The path from the elevator to the main living area may be a bit tight for a wheelchair user due to the size of the dining table but would probably be manageable if you temporarily moved some of the chairs and scooted the table to one side. For people like my mother-in-law, who can walk but uses a cane and cannot do stairs, it was perfect. The en suite in the upstairs main bedroom has grab bars which were also helpful. The other two upstairs bedrooms each have a queen bed and share a bathroom with a double vanity. My husband and I stayed in the downstairs main bedroom, while our 4-year-old twins were thrilled to stay in the bunk bed in the rec room (which also has a private bathroom). The location was awesome, directly on the beach with a beautiful view from the upstairs deck. It was such a thrill to sit on the deck and watch dolphins swimming right in front of the house! Everything was in excellent condition and was exactly as it appeared in the pictures. The space was large and had plenty of room to spread out, which was nice for traveling with extended family. TVs with Rokus in every bedroom also meant we could spend some quiet time apart when we needed to, but come back together in the living area or on the deck. We had a very minor, non emergency maintenance issue which popped up on a Sunday afternoon, and the owner quickly responded to my text and had a handyman at the house the following morning. Overall I would enthusiastically recommend Retrouvaille to anyone traveling with a large-ish group (we had 7 adults and 2 children), or anyone with mobility issues that make stairs a challenge. I will note that the private beach access to get from the house to the beach does require the use of stairs, as well as walking up & down a sandy dune/hill which was challenging for me as a person who is able-bodied but quite out of shape but I honestly don't know if you could find any better in the area. The handrail on the stairs leading down to the sand was also pretty weathered and splintery which made me a bit nervous for my young children but they were fine. We had a wonderful stay and would 1000% book again!
