Beach Bliss!

The home was exactly as listed. The layout is perfect with plenty of space inside and out. It was very clean and well kept. We used a local company that delivers and picks up beach chairs, beach umbrella and beach cart. This was a great way to haul everything back and forth to the beach.

Excellent experience again

This is the 3rd time my family has stayed at this house as it never disappoints! The house has plenty of space and most everything you'd need for your trip. We especially enjoyed the pool this year as it was so hot and the pool was so refreshing. It is so close to the beach (1-2 min walk), so you can go down to the ocean for a bit and back to the house when you need a break from the sun. The decks are wonderful and we enjoyed the views. Overall, I would recommend this house for location, amenities, the awesome owners, and affordability. Thanks for another great stay!

Recommend!

Island Time was just as great as all of the other reviews stated! Quiet location close to the beach, and convenient to grocery shopping for your week's needs. The house is clean, well decorated, and the beds are comfortable. Probably the most well-equipped kitchen I've seen in a house that size. Steve was super-responsive to messages, and had our one minor issue resolved within an hour. Absolutely recommend!

My family vacationed at this property in Rodanthe for a week. We were looking for something that was pet friendly, with a pool and close to the beach. This property checked all those boxes PLUS had a hot tub! Lots of porch space for the dogs, we loved the screened in porch area and even had food and water bowls for the dogs there. We did bring our own crates as the property didnt have any, but the rooms are spacious enough for a XL crate. The pool was great and has tons of extra floats and accessories. Pool area was fenced in so the dogs could hang with us there too. Very short walk to the beach and pier. Property has lots of parking. The porch swing was nice and theres a table downstairs for outside eating. Has a charcoal grill and fish cleaning station. Upstairs porch gives a great sunset view of the sound. There were 7 of us who stayed comfortably at this home. We will definitely book here again when staying in Rodanthe.

Beach week bliss

We had a wonderful week staying at “Island Time”. The house was perfect for our family (3 adults, 2 kids and 2 dogs) and the proximity to the beach was unbelievable. The views from every deck were breathtaking, my kids loved the pool, little details in the house were a pleasure to witness and communicating with Steve was effortless. Thanks for a great week. We will definitely be back!

Loved staying at Island Time!!!

We had a great time. This is the first time we have ever booked a house and it far exceeded our expectations! It was our grandkids first trip to the ocean and they loved it. We loved the pool and hot tub. We spent more time in them than I thought we would. Everything was very clean and well organized. The washer and dryer was a very good feature as we did laundry while we were at the pool and had less to wash when we got home. The kitchen was well equipped, we had pasta night and we even made cookies with kids one night! We all loved it and didn't want to leave!!! We will definitely be back!!!Thank You!!!

Awesome Views, Great House, Great Host

Even though this location is technically not on the ocean; it sure feels like it. We loved sitting on the deck watching and hearing the waves crash on shore. The kids were in the pool twice a day. Beds were comfortable; kitchen is recently updated and has newer appliances and well stocked with silverware and plates for our family. Steve was very good with communicating and answering questions. Overall; we were very happy with our first visit to OBX and will return again.

Great house, great memories made!

We had a great time at this house. This was our 2nd year there and it didnt disappoint. It has plenty of space for the family. We made great use of all of the decks with great views. On one side of the house you can see the sunrise and the other the sunset. It has a great pool that felt great on those hot days. The beach is just a short walk away and was wonderful. We enjoyed going to the pier each night for live music. The kitchen has all you need to cook at home. Steve was very responsive and kind when there was a minor maintenance issue that popped up. All in all I would highly recommend this house and hope to come back again!

Nice

Nice house…sofa was in need of a good cleaning but not unexpected in a property that allows pets. Beautiful and well-stocked kitchen. Great pool and hot tub (although maneuvering the hot tub cover on and off in the small enclosed porch is very difficult)! Easy beach access and better views than we expected. Homeowner quick to respond and very pleasant!

Great week at a Great house.

What a great house and a great location, 90 second walk to a wonderful beach. House had everything we could have wanted with 4 spacious bedrooms. Pool area was awesome! Private and sunny!! We had one minor issue that I only mention because the property owner responded IMMEDIATELY and had it resolved for us with-in an hour. We could not have been happier with our choice and are starting to plan our return trip! Thank you, Steve and Debra.

Pleasant

It's challenging to find a house that allows dogs, with a private pool, close to the ocean. While a little cramped, the house ticked all the boxes for an affordable price. The walk to the beach is actually comparable to many beachfront homes with long private access. We had a few minor issues during our stay but the property manager was attentive, polite, and helpful with any questions.

Can't say enough nice things about this house. It checked all the boxes for us. So close to beach, house was immaculate, super dog friendly with gates on the stairs, fully stocked kitchen, nice size pool, hot tub, passes to pier. I could go on the on. You won't regret staying here. I think we may have finally found our perfect rental for our small family in Rodanthe. Only took 10 years.

Great location in Rodanthe with easy access to beach.

My family enjoyed our vacation at Island Time in Rodanthe. The house was the perfect size and location for our family of 4, and our dog. We enjoyed the ocean views from multiple decks on the home, and the easy access to the beach. The private pool was a nice and relaxing reprieve after the hot and sunny days at the beach. The Owner, Steve, was very responsive and quickly addressed a minor issue we were having getting the AC to kick on. It was easily resolved and we had no more issues throughout our trip. I would definitely recommend Island Time to other families who are planning a vacation to the Outer Banks.

Relaxation Island

Island Time was just what we were looking for. Gorgeous views, perfect distance to the beach, wide porches, gates with latches, screened in porch, hot tub, pool, outside shower, hose to wash off after a day at the beach and dog friendly and clean. We enjoyed EVERY SPACE of that house! There wasn't 1 thing we needed that wasn't there. We had some questions for Steve, I sent him texts and he responded promptly. Very friendly, efficient and helpful. Would definitely recommend staying at Island Time. Thanks Steve

Excellent family vacation spot

We were so pleased with our stay at Island Time! The house was located close to the beach (like a block away: 2-3 min walk) and had everything you needed basically. The kitchen was stocked with all the basics and then some, that you would need to cook. The decor was beachy and inviting. The pool was amazing! We didnt use the hot tub, but it looked great and inviting. We had 7 people and 2 dogs in the house and it never felt crowded. The outdoor deck space was the best...beautiful views of the ocean and sunrise and sunsets. I think the decks were the dogs favorite spaces too, with gates on them so they could roam freely. The area was family friendly and not over crowded. Overall, we would highly recommend this house and hope to come back and stay again soon!
