Great place to stay & excellent service

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Waterman's retreat cabanas. The unit was very clean and spacious. We had an issue with the HVAC in our unit during our stay, and management addressed the issue immediately. Overall very happy with our stay.

Clean and updated. Friendly staff

Excellent property in Waves. The only recommendation I would make is more street lighting. It’s a bit dark around there at night.

Christmas on Hatteras Island

My Husband and I stayed at Waterman's Retreat over Christmas and had a lovely time. The apartment was spacious, stylish, and clean and centrally located in the villages. Management was responsive and easily accessible, and having REAL Watersports just across the street was super convenient with a beautiful view. Would definitely recommend staying with Waterman's

Awesome place!

We stayed at one of the Watermen's Cabanas and it was perfect! Such a great location and a great little cabana that is perfect for 3-4 people. The Watermen's Bar & Grill was absolutely amazing and additionally, the REAL Watersports store and rental shop was super ideal. Highly recommend staying here, especially if you are a surfer! We were able to head to the beach and catch some waves in the midst of our remote work days throughout the week and it was exactly what we were looking for. The only thing we recommend is to bring some of your own cooking ware as there are not many pots/pans for cooking in the cabana!

Awesome little retreat

Property was nice and Cousy. We enjoyed the open layout from kitchen to living room and particular the modern furniture. Great place to stay in a easy going and not overly touristic area of the island.

Condo is perfect

Clean, efficient, cooking tools could be better but I am a cook and not all people are. Location, great - no view but a view costs $$$. Would stay again.

Superb Family Getaway

The Waterman's cabanas were simply a terrific and affordable way for our family to get away from DC, practice social distancing, and have a great time in a charming NC beach town. The living spaces and amenities were as advertised and pet friendly. The outdoor shower was private and clean, and the deck was a nice place to chill after a beach-day. Lots to do and great places to eat nearby. We'll be back again.
