We had a lovely time! We've stayed at many homes in Avon and Salvo over the past 35 years so I can say with excessive experience that this is a great house. It's clean, well cared for and has everything you need for an enjoyable vacation. You won't be disappointed!

Peaceful Beach Hideaway

The property offered us more than enough space for our family of 4. The choices between the hot tub, heated pool, and ocean were perfect for every outdoor temperature and mood. A gem was the Waves Market Deli (walkable distance from the house) for gourmet sandwiches and huge wine selection. Joanne was very responsive and helpful. I suggest a walk on the Rodanthe Pier and coffee at Waves Coffee & Candies Shop.

The house was plenty big enough to accommodate our families and the pool was a lifesaver since the ocean was still cool. The only drawbacks we experienced were that the dishwasher was small and did not clean dishes thoroughly even on “heavy” and prerinsing. The grill was also tiny for a house this size and would be a suitable size for a cottage accommodating 4. A stand alone ice machine would also be nice as we went through a lot of ice with 8 of us, the freezer had a hard time keeping up. The owner was extremely responsive when we had issues with the heat temperature of the pool, though it did take 3 days to actually work.

Wonderful!!!

We had a great week at Joannes place. We communicated many times and she answered all my questions promptly. The property was clean and the layout of the house is perfect for large groups. The beds were comfortable and the elevator was a life saver! The views were better than pictured and the trek to the beach over the dunes wasnt bad at all. We highly recommend and hope to return to this lovely home!

Great location, enjoyed the house all around. Few minor issues with pool not getting warm till Thursday for swimming. General maintenance on outside cut grass trim trees and bushes. The cleaners did t do a very gd job of sweeping and putting fresh rolls toilet paper and paper towels out like was described as starter pack. But Wld definitely stay there again. My wife is handicapped and I have bad knees so the elevator was a God send. The owner was really nice and helpful and courteous. We had an incredible time and enjoyed every min. Thank you.

Check in was easy and contactless. Found the house and property clean. There was enough room for all of us. Found some sand throughout flooring but to be expected. Probably more when we left even though we swept daily. Great location and easy access to beach. Only a couple things need to be improved. 1. Fix sliding doors, they need an overhaul. 2. Replace kitchen faucet, hard to turn off. Joanne was readily available and addressed a couple concerns while we were there in a timely fashion. Much appreciated. Overall a great experience for our family.

Loved our stay

We loved our stay. The house was clean. We absolutely loved the location.There are some things that could be updated, but everything worked as specified. The pool had an issue with the heater and it was not heated when we arrived, but Joanne was so very helpful and responsive. The pool guy got it fixed quickly and we were even refunded part of the fee. We loved the layout of the house with the rooms on the second and third floor, each having access to the decks. The hot tub was great and had a wonderful view of the ocean. We did not use the grill, because we brought our own. It did look like it needed cleaned though. Overall, it was wonderful and we would stay there again. A big thank you to Joanne for being so quick and responsive. She also took the time to validate my concerns prior to our stay based on other people’s reviews.

Leaks, sandfilled sheets/floors, extremely dusty, broken appliances, unusable grill

The location of the property is very desirable but the house itself as well as the cleanliness was lacking. Upon exploring the house, we found that the floors in the bedrooms were covered with sand and slept in sand filled beds the first night. We had to wash all our bedding the following day as well as clean the floors. The grill was unusable due to heavy debris/char, the blender did not work, the childs high chair was missing the safety straps, there is a leak on the jet tub faucets, the sliding door in the main area had a water leak as well as the door in the top floor bedroom, the lamp was glued together & the pool table had damage to the felt & a large stain. We also found that the hot tub was not clean, which we contacted the owner and she sent out maintenance to deal with it in a timely manner. She also offered to send the cleaning lady back out but we had already cleaned ourselves. Later in our stay, we found that the pool heater quit working due to the water in the pool being too low to filter through the pump. We informed the owner of all of these issues which some she was aware of and did not inform us prior to our stay. She also informed us that it is “standard practice” that the quilts on the bed not be washed after every guest. The owner did refund half of the pool heat cost due to our issues. This was our first rental from VRBO and were very disappointed. I would not recommend this property to family or friends due to the list of issues we encountered.

I just spent a week at Besito del Mar and it was everything we hoped for and more. The house is huge and well thought-out six bedrooms, plenty of bathrooms, with an elevator and ramp so that getting around is super easy. The kitchen has plenty of space and tools, there’s a game room downstairs, a hot tub up top with great ocean views, and a private heated pool that was a total hit (especially on cooler mornings). The walk over the dunes to the beach feels effortless, and having an outdoor shower to rinse off the sand makes a big difference.Everything inside felt clean and comfortable. We appreciated the extra touches: streaming TVs, strong WiFi, lots of places to lounge with a book, and decks where you can watch the sunrise or just relax listening to the waves. The host was responsive, friendly, and took care of little things right away. If you want a beach house that combines luxury, accessibility, space, and that peaceful salt-air vibe, this place hits the mark.

This was our second stay and we had a wonderful week. The house is set up well for several families to have their own space and we love the location in Salvo. Also the walk through the dunes to the beach is not as rigorous as in other locations. The home is very comfortable but beginning to need a little tlc. I wish we had asked for the pool to be heated as it was a cool and windy week, so would recommend that if you travel there outside the summer months. We will definitley return!!!

Check in was smooth and easy. The kitchen was large, but when they say there are no cleaning supplies, they mean it. No sponges, towels, nothing. The house had ample room and we were all comfortable. The queen en suite was accessible but the shower curtain was a foot too short and water poured out onto the floor every time you showered and there were minimal towels and no bath mat. The dining room table was large enough to seat 10, but it had some kind of sticky shellac on it. We washed it multiple times, but out. napkins, glass cups and game pieces all stuck to the table. The elevator was a huge plus for our 82 year old mother. The extra room was perfect for our puzzle. We enjoyed the pool, hot tub and beach almost every day. Can't beat those things! The views from every deck were also spectacular. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Location and elevator were great! Big enough for our whole party and adaquate space (could use some more deck chairs ). Didn't have bath mats until delivered by Walmart. Grill was in disarray and extremely hard to cook on. Fridge would not keep food cold or freezer items frozen. Screens missing in quite a few windows. Air conditioner kept misfiring and had error codes on thermostat. It was unable to keep the top floor cool. It was around 80 degrees most of the time and once you had to cook in the kitchen, it was miserable. Location and elevator were great, but house itself needs a much needed TLC.

Beautiful home, wonderful stay!

This house was gorgeous and spacious, great for large groups with plenty of space to gather. Even better than the clean and charming interior was the view of the sea over the dunes. The entire top floor looks out to the glittering Atlantic, just visible over the natural beauty of the dunes. Our hostess Joanne was attentive and responsive and just lovely. We had a magical week!

It is a great house in a great spot!

Three 50/60 something couples (with two dogs) got together for our annual reunion. Mid-October 24. The house did great for our event but would work well for a family trip as well.
