Location is excellent but the property needs a lot of work. The house was not taken care of, the only furniture in the house that we consider clean is the dining table and chairs. Couch is so dirty and stinks. There are some pots and pans but none of the lids fit a pan. All of the window panels/frames are rotten away. The white curtains are all stained and gross looking . .The beddings are the joke. They just have a single piece of headboard against the wall by pushing the mattress push it toward it to keep it on place. If you move the wrong way the head would slam toward your head . The outdoor shower it was disgusting it's filled with sand so there is no way fir you to rinse yourself because you'd stayed in sand anyways. The only thing we can rinse ourselves was with the hose right off the stairs. But we couldn't do that for too long because we were eaten by mosquitoes. There are a lots of over grown grasses/weeds at the house especially around the the stairs and it so call outdoor shower. Alot of mosquitoes we cannot stand out there for more than a minute without getting bitten . The reason that I gave a three stars is because of the location but this house needs a lot of work. It is too bad though, the house sit on a beautiful location but it has been neglected stoo long.Suggestion, you should not ask guest wipe down your counters and fridge if you don't provide cleaning supplies.

Great family rental!

This is a great and affordable ocean front home! The great room/family room is just breathtaking with the huge windows and comfortable furniture. The fixtures and decor could use some updating but it was clean and comfortable. The beach was so close and convenient. There is also an ice cream store, a breakfast shop, and a restaurant at the end of the street-2 minute walk. We had a great vacation!

Nice property. You can hear the waves from the deck.

We enjoyed our stay. It was wonderful. There needs to be some updating for sure in the master bedroom from the lamp to the mini blind that was broken our whole stay and no one came to fix it, so we had to sleep all week with the blind up and no curtain. Other than that it was a nice place to stay. Just the basics. No frills.

Beautiful place to visit. Very nice house. We wish the deck would have been a little taller. But still beautiful! I did do some cleaning when I first got to it. It was dirty along the walls and under furniture. The bathrooms and kitchen were clean. The Outer Banks is a beautiful place to visit! Dolphin Realty staff was very nice and acomadating!

Great location needs cleaning

The location is the best part of this house and the large living room. However, while staying here the ramp to the beach rotted and you cannot walk on the deck without shoes (splinters and nails). The queen mattress had many stains, the hallway shower was clogged and filled with water, the living room TV did not work, all the chairs on the deck were broken and most of the windows leaked. Could be an amazing house but needs some deep cleaning.

Wonderful house on the beach

We thoroughly enjoyed our weeklong stay at Chez Toni. The living room is totally awesome! Airy, bright, huge, immense windows facing he ocean and dunes. The pictures don't really do it justice. Its wow factor is off the charts. Easiest access to the beach, with private path right off the deck. Bedrooms and baths - very good. Great water pressure. Kitchen stocked well - great set of skillets and pans, a little short on cups (as in "there's only one cup, so if you are coffee/tea driner, beware"), but overall serves you more than adequately. Be careful with outdoor shower - the floor boards are somewhat disintegrated and there's plenty of splinters and nails to attack your feet, so wear crocs or flip-flops while in there. Multiple dinner/lunch/breakfast options in walking distance so even under COVID-19 regime you won't go hungry if cooking is not your thing. Would definitely stay there again.

Cottage at Avon

Location is awesome! The Ocean and beach were great! We enjoyed our stay, but I will say that it is not a place to stay if one has elderly, children under five, or handicapped (such as bad knees, or worse) individuals in the party of vacationers - the stairs up to the cottage is a challenge, the free swinging glass storm door is dangerous (it swings out to top of stairs at the entrance, with the potential of knocking someone down the flight of stairs), the walk to the beach is a challenge (again, for elderly or bad knees)in heat, and the entirety of the cottage is unsafe (old, heavy glass lamps on rickety lamp tables, couple areas are fall hazards for toddlers, & uncovered outlets throughout, loose nails on entrance steps/boardwalk) for toddlers. It was a job to bring/carry all my personal sheets, towels, paper goods, and toilet paper, and haul up the stairs, and to have to vacuum/clean before leaving. ....With all that said, I will say that I reported the safety issues, and a few dirty areas to the realty company in charge. Lastly, I WOULD STAY HERE AGAIN, as it is a great area, cottage, etc. for me! I just want to give a heads up to anyone who has toddlers, elderly, and/or handicap members in their party.

Thank you for the review. Being an ocean front home, there are many stairs as they are all lifted about a story up. The dunes in Avon are a little bit of a walk for sure, make sure you do your research prior to booking as far as to how long the dunes are. Some areas are not as long. Thank you for your review and we will address these issues, as well as the ones we spoke on the phone about! We look forward to your visit again soon. Dolphin Realty

Great introduction to the OBX

We thought this home on Avon was the perfect spot for our family; just a short walk over the Dunes to the ocean and a not too busy beach. We walked to the Avon Fishing Pier, souvenir, coffee and ice cream shops and restaurants. The area and beach felt safe and it was very clean. There is a mix of rentals and homeowners in the immediate neighborhood. We were pleasantly surprised that the cottage seemed larger and more open than the online photos. The kitchen, bedrooms and baths were fine. The carpet in one of the bedrooms had a strong odor that we reported to the management company, we were unable to use the bedroom during our stay. There is an outdoor shower and hose to wash off the sand after a day at the beach. Also under the house, are two small charcoal grills, a clothes line for wet towels/suits and a bin where previous guests had left boogie boards and sand toys to use. We were able to enjoy the deck the entire trip, there was always a breeze and it was shaded in the afternoon. We expected beach access from the deck, but the opening has been removed. The public beach access is next to the house, up and down a few steps. The beach wagon we rented was not able to be used. We rented our linens/towels from Moneyworth. We rented beach items from Island Cycles and Ocean Atlantic Rentals. We were happy with everything and would recommend them.

We're thrilled you enjoyed your first stay in Avon with Dolphin Realty. We did have to remove the beach access directly off the deck for safety reasons, but the public access is right in the same driveway. We're happy you enjoyed all Avon has to offer and that you enjoyed our beautiful island.

House was just what we needed for us and our two boys. Could’ve been a little cleaner when we arrived, as we had to vacuum. Also, we noticed a few windows that were cracked open the second day after it wasn’t cooling down.Nice easy access to the beach, though, always a plus! Really wish the walkway at the bottom of the steps going up would be finished, as you’re always tracking sand in.

Amazing location!

The great room is beautiful with vaulted ceilings and a gorgeous view of the grassy dunes and a sliver of ocean, the deck is lovely to sit out and have your coffee on. The kitchen is spacious. It’s definitely a well loved family home, no frills, but it’s all you need for a fun filled family getaway. The walk to the beach is short and the beach is pristine. You may want to bring little extras to make it feel like home.

1ST VISIT TO OBX

Hard to locate property if arriving after dark. We spent approx 45 mins locating the house once we were on Beachcomber We called for assistance x3 with no response. finally found house by going up every drive on the street. If older with bad knees (like us) the stairs are killer. Elevator would be nice or at least a dumbwaiter for the luggage and other items. needed.

Anniversary Week

We had an enjoyable stay. Location was great. It is a cute little cottage that is perfect for 1 or 2 couples or for 1 family. Disappointed in the Cleanliness of the floors, which wasn’t great and air vents were all dirty. There were no deck chairs to sit outside. Notified the agent about the items and they are going to fix. Overall though we really enjoyed our stay and would stay again in the future.
