Reviewer Comments: Our mini family reunion of 11 really enjoyed our stay. There were a few problems that were addressed to our satisfaction. The location and amenities (pool/hot tub) were first rate. However,the dishwashers were not up to speed leaving mounds of water to wipe up when unloading. The kitchen was well stocked. The trash pick up and check out time directions contradicted themselves but we figured it out. I would stay here again! ##### MARTHA K.

Reviewer Comments: The home was big with enough space for everyone. I was very disappointed that there were no pool toys or beach toys. Also there were no spices to cook with, not even salt or pepper. Also there was a roach in the master bedroom on the mail floor and another big roach in the master bathroom on the main floor. ##### mary l.

Reviewer Comments: Location is great. The house needs a thorough cleaning especially under the couches. Furniture, plumbing fixtures need replacement. Areas of the floor tile, on first floor, are covered with duct tape. The house needs updating. It's obvious no effort has been made to upkeep the house. ##### Tom P.

Reviewer Comments: We are 2 Grandparents renting with our family There were 15 of us with food to refrigerate. One of the refrigerators doesn’t keep food cold. It works on and off and lets food get ruined and unsafe to eat. That refrigerator NEEDS to be replaced!! The hvac vents/filters need to be cleaned.We had a nice stay, but would never rent this house again with that faulty refrigerator.I would only recommend this property if I knew the bad refrigerator was replaced. Doesn’t stay cold or freeze ice ##### Sue M.

The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: pictures & description show one side, being there is another. Kitchen is meant to be used (double everything) no place to store items, needs a pantry. 1 of the fridgs is either too cold or warm, stove fans have no filters, smoke just rolls out, not hot pads provided to protect laminate tops. tile shower has no shelves, have to put personal items on floor, house needs a deep cleaning, duct tape used to fix broken floor tiles. Roaches on first floor, pool deck coming unattached (watch your step) no place to put umbrellas around very hot pool deck, other decks are a hazard (old & rotting), handrails are unsafe to put hands on (6 of the guest got spinsters). Layout good, location great, clean poor, parking great. For the money spent expectations were not met. ##### Scott D.

The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House is in a perfect location. Great beach access and bar/restaurant across the street. Easy keyless access, worked great. Elevator was easy to use and in perfect condition. Plenty of beds/rooms for everyone in our group, and each had en-suit bathrooms which was great! Living room/kitchen area were spacious, plenty of seating, plenty of counter space- and two full size fridges was a bonus! The pool was heated and private, and the hot tub was great (not as pictured through, the hot tub does not have a little canopy over it ). Our family was in the pool every day of this trip- was perfect. I do have to say, the house was not cleaned thoroughly. Kitchen counters were sticky, crumbs from old guests on the dining room rug, one of the ovens was really dirty and we didn’t use in case of starting a fire- as well as random socks hanging on the railing to the beach and under furniture in the house. Outdoor kitchen area was not cleaned at all including a trash can still full from the last guests. The area was recently hit with hurricane storms- so this is unlikely to be a recurring problem, however, for our stay- The basement smelled badly of mold and was damp, including the basement bedrooms. Despite those hiccups, our family did have a nice vacation here. ##### Isabel C.

The vacation rental was clean. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the Elevator. Helped out with people who weren’t able to climb stairs. And the big kitchen for all of us with 2 frigs and stove.The AC Upstairs took until middle of week to get fixed it was soooo Hot. But finally came 3 rd time to fix the main issue. Showers in some of bedrooms were small and slippery hard to get in and some just a tub no shower. But we worked it out.Saw a roach on middle floor turned us off a little might need a good cleaning and spray down the crawlers. Beds were hard as a rock would recommend little foam mattress on them . Over all pretty house and spacious. Pool was great and hot tub. Stairs to beach is rough if have handicapped people not able to get out. But saw Dolphins every morning from top Deck. Furniture could be replaced has stains on it. And recommend a nice recliner for people who can’t sleep in the beds. There was none. Or a chair especially in the bedrooms nowhere to sit down. Overall it was nice for our big group with a few problems.Thank you! ##### Angela W. ### 8/10 Good #### Vinit T. 7 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Excellent property, right in the beach. We had lots of fun.4 stars because there were NO essentials such as TP, basic kitchen cleaning supplies, trash bags etc. provided. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/36427f7c-6211-499c-bd25-418a680f6533-1749301651768.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Vinit T.

Reviewer Comments: Very nice house. It was very clean and had many amenities. The week was cool for June but we had paid for the pool to be heated and it was a perfect temperature. My only complaint would be that some of the tvs on the 1st and 2nd floor didn't work. Overall a great house and a wonderful vacation. ##### Karen D.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had the most awesome two weeks at the Good Life. They added a baby gate across the stairs, and it worked wonderful. Adding the screen door on the porch was great! I do wish they could get grass in the dog play area, as our dogs won't potty on the rocks. Our favorite place for a vacation! Can't wait to stay there again! Everybody in our party, just had a wonderful time at the Good Life! ##### Sandy B.

Reviewer Comments: First trip out of 13 to the OBX in the off-season. Many, many emails and texts from the management company on details of checkin/checkout. Did not respond to texts, but did answer when called. Though the home was discounted for the offfseason, I hoped the home would have been a little better maintained. ##### Chris D.

We were a party of 13 and the dogs and had a wonderful time! Kitchen is well stocked! It was too cool too use the pool this time, but the hot tub was really nice! Would recommend the Good Life! We went on the Wild Horse Adventure tour, and saw lots of horses and two babies. Went on the Magic Bus and saw 8 bears! Went to Dirty Dicks and Jolly Rogers for dinner! Can't wait to stay here again in the future! ##### Sandy B.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had just an awesome time. A couple of small things, like, their isn't an outside door on the porch, which was challenging making sure the dogs didn't run out, when somebody went on the porch. And the laundry ( dirty bedding) was left in the elevator. We called the office, but it didn't end up getting picked up. But as a whole, everything was GREAT! Just love the house and can't wait to rent it again! ##### Sandy B. ---
