"Our whole experience was fantastic!!! The house was perfect for our reunion with high school and college friends from the 1970's. All of the bedrooms with private bathrooms, plenty of seating in various locations, for smaller breakout groups, dining table with seating for 12 (which we filled up), well stocked kitchen, nice deck with great views, games, TV, ... and we didn't even get to the hot tub, but it looked inviting. The elevator was wonderful for luggage and groceries. I highly recommend this house for its comfort and location. Village Realty made the whole rental process very easy. To sum it up, it was an all-around GREAT experience!!!"

"We just had a wonderful week at Giggling Gecko. There were 10 of us, ages 12 - 71 and there was plenty of room for everyone and lots to keep us busy. I had not been to OBX in over 20 years and was glad to see that for the most part, the beach road was "frozen in time" . So many memories flooded back for all of us. We will be back. We cooked a lot and there were plenty of plates and coffee mugs. It was especially nice that there were four coffee pots so everybody got to drink their own brand of coffee. The kitchen was short on serving bowls and serving utensils. The propane ran out of gas after only one time so we had to replace that. Also, only one set of towels per person was provided so we did a lot of laundry too. If I had known these things ahead of time, I could have brought bowls and towels with me. But -- that's all small stuff compared to the amazing time we had. Thank you for allowing us to share your lovely home. We will return again hopefully next year."

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. Village Realty is happy to hear that you have enjoyed your stay. We strive to provide an amazing vacation experience, that you and your family will look back onto for years to come. Off season is a wonderful time of the year to explore the outer banks. The shops, beaches and restaurants are certainly slower paced, and you the guest are able to enjoy the sights at leisure. We will be happy to help you with your next vacation booking and look forward to seeing you again. Safe travels! MH

"Giggling Gecko is the perfect house for multiple couples/families! Lots of space to eat, sleep and play. The house is well-maintained overall and well equipped. The pool was nice, and the ocean access is unparalleled. We appreciated the note in the guest book about the house swaying in the high wind — it made us feel better when the tropical storm came through! Would stay again!"

"This is such a beautiful home! Amazing location. We found the Village Realty team to be so helpful and accommodating. We had a few minor issues and they were handled really quickly and well. It really felt like we were valued guests. We were frustrated by the Beach Nourishment activities happening (which Village Realty had no control over), as there were pipes blocking our view and walk to the beach. Even though Village Realty had no control over it, they still went above and beyond to resolve our frustration. I would happily rent from them again. This is a gem of a house and Village Realty was wonderful to work with. Thanks again!!!"

"Fantastic, extremely well maintained home. The owner`s pride of ownership really stands out in this house. We have been coming to OBX for 9 years and almost everyone exclaimed "This is the best so far" on departure. Beach is a few steps away. All the local amenities are a short walk or drive away. The house is loaded with everything you need to help family have a great time. The elevator is convenient for loading and unloading. Flawless!!!"

"Wow. New owners have put in all new appliances, new TV`s in every room, new bedding, new paint. Everything was clean and fresh and such a joy. Lots of room for kids and adults. The brand new hot tub was fantastic. I loved walking the beach every dayEverything one could imagine was available to be used including pool room and separate game room. We weren`t missing a thing. We cooked day and night and kept the 2 new dish washers running!Nice touch to have extra frig and ice maker downstairs Not to mention every one had their own private bathroom with 2 extra "public " washrooms for everyone`s use I don`t know whether to keep this place as my own secret hideaway or if I will regret tellingly the world I`ve already rebooked for another getaway!"

"Wow! Close to everything. Outstanding accommodations in a great location. Our families got together and so enjoyed our stay. Long private walks on the beach from our doorstep, relaxing in the jacuzzi, and playing pool in the billiard room were some of the "favorites" everyone shared. The "Captain`s Perch" was mine. Cannot wait to return here to Sunrise Beach House. These owners thought of everything! Cherie - Jamestown NC"

"What a great place. The house was immaculate, the layout was perfect for all the family members. Access to the beach was so easy. The toys in the house, pool table, game table etc where an added bonus to the entertainment. Plenty of dishes, glasses, silverware. You could go formal or casual for any meal. No issues with anything in the house. The owners were great people to work with too!Was the best vacation house I have ever stayed in."

"We came down in December 2020 with a large Family and this was the absolute perfect house. Renovated and it was clear the new owners, have put a lot of heart into making this the place to be. Renovated, clean, bright, fully equipt. The house is in a great location; you have the beachfront, and a private pool and hot tub. Close to area attractions but tucked away enough where you truly feel like you are on vacation. All the bedrooms have their own private bathrooms. Enough space on all three levels to feel like you have room to spread out and entertain. Elevator, is a definite bonus when you are carrying in your luggage and groceries. This rental is a true GEM and I will definitely look forward to staying here again!"

"August 2016 Stay - This is a wonderful well equipped rental. The family had great fun and really enjoyed all the amenities. We would have felt a little more secure if the sliding doors on the lower and upper levels would locked."
