“Great place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 8, 2012

Just got back from the Golden Strand, had a great time. It is located on the beach. This is great, no worries about finding a place to park at the beach access. The condo was a great size, the rooms had great closet space. Towels and linens are provided, laundry facility is free, never had a problem to wait for a machine to finish. Plenty of kitchen supplies. Had great sunrise every morning and sunsets to watch on our balcony. It was super quiet at night. We plan on staying there again when we go back.

“Beachfront Condo”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 2, 2012 via mobile

We have been coming here for 12 years. They are always doing up grades ; a new pool a few years ago. This year we have wall mounted flat screens and new couches. My bedroom is about 100' from the ocean. I love sleeping with the window open and hearing the waves crash! This is a perfect family condo. Close to lots of resturants and shop

“Good Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed April 15, 2012

I exchanged our timeshare for this 2 bedroom, 2 bath condo and stayed for a week with my husband and another couple in mid-March 2012. The check in was very quick and without asking they gave us a unit with a better view than the one we had been assigned. Very nice of them – thank you very much!

The exterior and interior are nothing fancy and are older but well maintained and clean. The beds seemed new and were very comfortable. They were delivering new sofas the day we departed but not sure how many units were being upgraded. The kitchen seemed to be well stocked even though we did not cook – just made coffee in the morning and cocktails in the afternoon. The condos are right on the beach so we walked in the sand most every day and since it was not the busy season there were not many people and no swimming. There was one restaurant that was walking distance but we did not try it.

There are many interesting places to visit in the area that we enjoyed including Kitty Hawk, Roanoke Island, Fort Raleigh, aquarium, Cape Hatteras, Jockeys Ridge State Park and several light houses. Because of the time of year some attractions and restaurants were not open but we still enjoyed our stay.

“Love the Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 14, 2011

This is an older resort but the location makes the place worthwhile. This is our second time staying here; this time we have a 2nd floor unit with a great view of the ocean (2 couples). The unit is well-stocked with paper products, towels, etc., (no beach towels). Knowing there were no washer/dryers in the units we did not plan to do laundry. This time of year the resort was quiet with lifeguards patrolling the beach via vehicles.
The unit had a full kitchen and there are so many good places to eat (Kill Devil Grill, Owens, Flying Fish Cafe, Colington Cafe, Black Pelican) and the beach is a definite attraction. The beds were comfortable, but you may want your own pillows.
Although the place could be refurbished and updated, we would stay here again, just for the proximity to the beach.

Room Tip: Ask for a room with a full ocean view.

“Nice, but needs a clean up”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 9, 2011 via mobile

To start off, this is a great place to stay; it has all the necessary amenities, it is located right on the beach, there is a pool and laundry facilities. Overall, it is good; however a few things could be fixed. I found blood stains on the sheets and when we went to cook dinner, we found that most of the dishes had a strange chemical smell and some of the pots and pans were not well cleaned (they had food crust on them.) Nothing a quick run in the dishwasher didn't fix. The whole building is clearly older, along with the appliances and decor, but if you can get past that, the proximity to the beach, the pool, the oceanfront rooms and the value compensate for a bit of grime here and there. Definitely rent here, just bring your own set of sheets.
