Very smooth and easy checkin process. Immediate beach access, clean pool and hot tub, beautiful views from the kitchen and multiple bedrooms. We had a blast.

Thank you for your great review! We are happy that you liked so many things about The Blue Moon and that you all had a blast!
The house was beautiful -the views were amazing. Best ever after 15 years on obx. Beds very comfy- two dish washers huge help for party of 20 and having a large gas grill is a rare but awesome find at the beach. We also enjoyed the theater much more than we realized we would! So fun!

Thank you for the wonderful review! Being your favorite after 15 years of OBX trips means so much to us. We’re delighted your group enjoyed the views, comfortable beds, and meals together - and that the theater was such a fun bonus! We’d love to welcome you back in the future.
Our family really enjoyed our stay at the Blue Moon. There was plenty of room (10 adults, 6 kids), the property was beautiful, and the beach was great. The hosts were extremely quick to respond when we had questions, and we’d absolutely recommend this property to others.

Thank you for your awesome review, William! We agree the views are spectacular at The Blue Moon, I wish there was a way to do them justice in pictures, seeing them the panoramic view of the ocean from that height is amazing in person. We are also happy that you likes our hosting. We hope that you stay at The Blue Moon again in the future.
Property as expected, matched pictures as advertised. Couldn’t have asked for a better property and location. Too many amenities to describe. Pool and hot tub were great additional. Steps from ocean. Town is away from the tourist areas and just beautiful. Excellent communication and hosts.

Thank you so much for your exceptional review! It makes us so happy when people get to enjoy the beauty of The Blue Moon Beach House. We are thrilled that you and your friends had a great time, and really liked the house and our hosting! We look forward to you staying at The Blue Moon again in the future.
The owners are what make this so amazing, quick response time, helpful and friendly. The location is perfect and the beds are so comfy! The pool was a hit and the hot tub. Kitchen was great to cook in and some amazing restaurants nearby.
We couldn’t ask for anything better. The host was accessible and quickly helped with any questions that came up. The home accommodated the needs of all of our family, ages 8-70, including a disabled senior. The beach and the surrounding area provided opportunities for wonderful memories

Thank you for your fantastic review! We are very happy that you loved the house and found it to be beautiful and the kitchen well stocked. We hope you stay at The Blue Moon again in the future.
We stayed at the Blue Moon for a week and had everything we needed to a relaxed and fun stay. The kitchen is well stocked and all the rooms were comfortable and spacious. The pool was perfect and the beach was a quick walk. Any questions/concerns we had with the owners were quickly addressed. Very happy with the stay!
We thoroughly enjoyed the house! There was plenty of room for everybody and good spaces to hang out together. We had fun days staying in, whether in the pool, at the beach, or playing games. We liked the location too because it was easy to go north to Nags Head or south to Hatteras. The best part was watching the beautiful sunrises!

Thank you so much for your great review of The Blue Moon, John! We are very happy that you enjoyed that house and look forward to you staying at the house again in the future!
Thank you for allowing us to host our wedding at your beautiful home. We were able to have the ceremony on the beach and the reception on the pool deck with a handful of our closest friends and family. It was beautiful and this home and it's owners made the day so incredibly special for us. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Thank you so much for your wonderful and heartwarming review, Mary. We are so happy that you loved the house, and that we could be a small part of your wedding. We have created special memories at The Blue Moon, so it is awesome to see other people get to create great memories at this special place. Congratulations!
Lovely house with a beautiful ocean view from the top floor. The elevator and easy top floor layout (bedroom off living room) was awesome for family using a walker. (Note about 5 steps up to get into house were a little tricky.) Our winter get away was very fun at The Blue Moon. The house would be awesome in warmer weather!
Had a few issues with the cleanliness of the house but it was taken care of the next day. The owner Josh was very helpful and made sure the issues were corrected. The house was gorgeous, the pool and hot tub were wonderful. My family had a great time. I would definitely recommend this house.

Thank you for your great review, Kathy! We started working with a different cleaning company based on your feedback. Thank you for understanding as we worked to get it corrected as soon as possible. We are very happy that you liked many things about the house, and you recommend it to other guests!
This house has everything you need. The floor plan is spacious and the amenities are amazing. It was a hit with everyone! The host was quick to respond and very accommodating. When we forgot things at the house they were so quick to help us. Not all of the outlets were working and AC only cooled to 70 BUT we were able to easily work around that. Would stay again!
This place is even better than the pictures could demonstrate. The rooms are all comfortable, spacious and extremely quiet. Sunrise can be seen from the top deck each day. Be sure to bring toiletries (I.e shampoo, conditioner, soap) as these are not provided. Bring beach or pool towels and supplies as well, otherwise everything is well stocked. Owners are very responsive to any needs.
Josh and Kimberly are outstanding host! Josh was attentive to our every need, very responsive to our questions, and more importantly, proactive in meeting our needs! Quick response to every question.
I'm not great with design, furnishing, and details...but my wife is (read super critical) and she was astonished by the quality and beauty of the property!
There are so many things I could comment on but a few are: easy-simple check-in, awesome game room, wonderful pool area, vicinity and ease of beach access.
If you are looking for class and value together for your beach stay, the Blue Moon is where you should stay.

Thank you for the great review, Randall! We are so happy that you and your wife loved so many things about the house! Thank you so much for all of your kind words, Randall. We hope you stay at The Blue Moon again.
The house was beautiful, very clean and the kitchen was fully stocked. The elevator was wonderful for my elderly dad to be able to move around without having to use the stairs. There was plenty of space for everyone. The pool and hot tub were really nice and there was plenty of pool toys for my kids. We loved hsving the pool table. We didn't see any chalk for the pool cues though so that would be helpful for future stays. The grill was nicely located by the pool and was clean. We had a few minor things that came up during our stay but Josh was very accommodating and replied really fast when we reached out to him. The house is also dog friendly. My 2 had a blast and were nice and exhausted by the time we got home. We would definitely consider staying here again!
My family and I decided to do a last minute weekend getaway to the beach and The Blue Moon ended up being the perfect spot for us! It was just the 4 of us but this home can easily accommodate 20 people. On the way there our two teens were asking what sites we were going to visit and once we got to the house they didn't ask to leave one time! The views from the top floor living room and kitchen area are spectacular. They are topped only be being out on the top floor deck where you can look out over the water and hear the waves. The game room with a pool table and air hockey was a huge hit. The house is right on the beach and we thoroughly enjoyed going for walks and runs on the beach. The sunrise on the beach is spectacular. We also enjoyed a relaxing time in the hot tub. It was too cool for the pool but it would be great for warmer months. The kitchen is well stocked and we were able to cook with no problems. Beds and linens were great. Just an overall lovely home and the host Josh was super communicative, kind, and helpful. We plan to return!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review, Nicole! We agree, the view is spectacular from the top floor and deck! I will never forget the first time that I saw it, I was amazed.
We are so happy that you enjoyed the house and sincerely look forward to you staying at The Blue Moon again!
Great place to stay with a large family away from the crowds.My granddaughters loved the mermaid room and my grandson was so excited with the pirate room. Awesome place for younger children.
