They have beach essentials on site, like chairs and a wagon, that made it easy for us to get to the beach and enjoy it. The house is comfortable, clean, and well equipped. The easy and responsive communication with the iTrip NC Beaches staff was also a huge plus. We would stay here again! ##### Haley S.

House was very clean and management company did a great job of communicating and having everything you would need for a home away from home. Really appreciated the bikes for quick trips to/from the beach and avoiding parking in town. Thanks for a great beach vacation! ##### Sarah W.

My family and I had the most wonderful time at the Now and Zen Beach House! The home was well-appointed and the hosts were quite attentive! We rented a golf cart for a few days and were able to keep/charge in the garage. Pet friendly too! Grab a glass of wine or a beer and sit out on the balcony to catch the ocean breeze. Just lovely! We'll be back again. Thank you, iTrip! ##### Mary This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Carly 7 Sept 2024 #### Beautiful! My family of 3 had a lovely stay here. The home is beautiful and clean. It has lots of natural light and is well decorated. Cleanliness was great. A bathroom drawer had hair in it but I’m sure not many people check to see if they need to clean a drawer haha. The sheets on one of the downstairs bedrooms were so stiff they were crunchy- they may have been brand new. The bed was comfy though. The upstairs master bed has a plastic mattress cover which makes noise and shifts the fitted sheet- this made it hard to sleep. The home and neighborhood are quiet but we could hear our duplex neighbors’ kids running on both levels. We love that it has a small backyard to let our dog out and a nice balcony out front. About a 6min walk to the beach. We had a lovely time here and would book here again. ##### Carly Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Viri D. 22 Apr 2025 #### Beautiful home!

Everything was perfect. Everything we could possibly need was here for us. You can tell the owners were extremely thoughtful in accommodating guests. We will definitely be back! Our family had a wonderful vacation! ##### Paula G.

A lovely, well kept, beautifully decorated home. All of the things you may need or want for a comfortable stay. Everything is labeled in the kitchen which makes finding and returning items a breeze. My family and I felt totally at home! ##### ashley e. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Casey K. 10 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect stay. This home is tastefully decorated and in like-new condition. Check in/ check out was easy and the property manager was very responsive when we had an AC issue (which turned out to be our fault). Highly recommend if you don’t need a beach view. It is 6 blocks from the beach, and only 2 blocks from a nice paved greenway that is shaded in the morning and great for walking. ##### Casey K.

It was stocked with everything we needed including 2 bikes and several beach chairs. We rented a golf cart which was helpful because it was too long of a walk to the beach if you were carrying beach chairs. We rented games, a tent and other beach supplies from GotShade and SunFun Rentals. I would stay again! ##### Meredith G.
