Beautiful views
The views from the top deck are amazing. The house was very beautiful and uniquely decorated. The pool was spacious and well maintained. We would definitely stay there again!

Beautiful home
The home was beautiful and well decorated. Older but well-maintained and kept up with. You can tell a lot of thought and care has gone into the decorating of this home. The only thing that I would caution about the amount of breakables with small children. We had to put up some barriers to ensure all of the breakables were secured from kids. It was so nice to have so many games, water, toys, beach, necessities, and even wagons to carry things down to the beach.

What a relaxing time
We throughly enjoyed our time at this house. It was so relaxing and the views were amazing. Would definitely stay at this home again. My only complaint is the tvs need to be updated. The guys needed to watch football. The remotes didnt match some of the televisions. The house was very clean ( OD on the decorations though!!)
Manager Response: Thank you for taking the time to review, Latasha! We will pass along your feedback regarding the TVs and décor to the owner to improve future visits. We hope to see

Amazing Views
This was our first visit to the Outer Banks and couldn't be happier with this home. The views from both decks were amazing. It was a very short walk to the beach from the house.
We also loved being near the restaurants and stores in Duck. We rented bikes that were used by everyone.

We spent a wonderful 2 weeks at Simple Gifts by the Sea. Really have no complaints. The accommodations are the best we've had in and around Duck and the location is within easy walking distance of the ocean and sound.
Manager Response: Thank you for sharing your experience. We are thrilled to hear you enjoyed the home and your time in the Outer Banks. We hope to welcome you back to the beach!

Great Family Getaway
We six, (5 young adults and a 50 +) had a great time at Simple Gifts by the Sea! It's close to the ocean so got up early to see the beautiful sunrise and saw sunsets on the deck swing. We spent lots of family time with dinners on the deck, card games, puzzles, swimming in the pool and grilling on the BBQ. The book selection and movie selection here are wonderful! Loved all the beautiful and historical decorum. The owner called to check to see if we had any questions about 15 minutes after our arrival. Would

A week at Simple Gifts
House was beautiful and fully equipped. Owners saw to every detail! Outside needs some attention and could have been cleaned better. Great location to the beach and both Duck and Corolla. Mix instructions on realtor package and notes left in house. Overall we had a great time and would recommend this property!
Manager Response: "Simple Gifts" is a home which provides so many amenities and the owners always look for new things to add to the house's appeal for each new season. It is like a treasure hunt for guests to find all the new things from year to year. Kitty Hawk Rentals will certainly review the outside of the house and move forward with things that need to be done and letting the owner know as well. Please join Kitty Hawk Rentals at "Simple Gifts" for many vacations in the future.

Simple Gifts
This property is gorgeous. The décor is lovely and interesting. We were always finding new pictures to enjoy. The property was very clean...the kitchen had every item one could ever need and the owner supplied a gift basket to get us started w items we would need plus coupons for Duck Donuts and Lighthouse Bagels! The pool was lovely...Our experience could not have been better!
Manager Response: Thank you so much for letting Kitty Hawk Rentals know how very much you enjoyed your stay at "Simple Gifts". We hope to see you back at the beach soon!

The little things are important !!!! Love this house :)
This home is absolutely beautiful! I don't think my expectations have ever been exceeded so greatly. When we first got to this rental (after a 12 hour drive) we had to walk around and look at all the nautical decor and admire the vacation owner's taste. My daughter who is an avid reader enjoyed walking around and seeing a different book in every nook and cranny. The pool is a little small but very clean and even the outside is nicely decorated:) The kitchen is stocked better than any other rental we've stayed at. There are beautiful sound and ocean views, esp off the front of the house (we called this master the Ernest Hemingway Suite). So many cool touches from the hammocks to the sand display on second floor wall (we have now started collecting sand to start our own). The beach is only a few steps away (~120 yards I think) and it is 1.2 miles to the center of Duck (short bike ride or longer walk). Duck is such a cute town to shop, eat lunch or dinner or to stroll and just enjoy the views. There is a bike path all the way into town so we felt comfortable letting the older kids ride into town together (without the adults). The welcome baskets were pretty, helpful and unexpected. They have bikes (4 maybe), corn hole, ladder golf and a bunch of beach chairs and a cart to help take stuff to the beach. We did have a WIFI issue that was resolved once we called the office and the ocean access deck had a bunch of stairs so wasn't real easy getting the easy up and coolers to the beach...but honestly, the house is so nice this will not keep us from renting this house again. You will not regret renting this house!!!! I'm sure you will enjoy all the special touches as did we.

Nothing simple about this house other than everything perfect
simple gift is the best house to make you feel at home! Nothing simple about this house. Everything is just perfect ! Great location and awesome views. This is our fourth time going, 2003/2004/2005 and this year August 2015. The kids were much younger than but remember lots of little things. Although now they are getting bigger, we need bigger beds. Perhaps putting back a double bed in the twin bed room. But overall it is a great place to go.

Home away from home
This house will make you want to stay in Duck permanently! We returned to Simple Gifts again this year and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location and the views are perfect! While standing on the top deck, we were able to watch the sunrise over the ocean and sunset over the sound. The house is a short walk to the beach and is located on a quiet private street. There was something for everyone at Simple Gifts. Our daughters enjoyed the pool and “gooseball” table. The adults appreciated the well-stocked kitchen, countless books to read, charcoal grill, wet bar downstairs, and beach wagon. The owners of this property are vested in making their guests’ vacations comfortable and memorable. They leave a personalized message on the answering machine for you and also provide a gift bag upon arrival. Simple Gifts is clean and cozy, making you feel as if you are at home. The only problem is….you don’t want to leave!

More Than A Simple Gift
The Simple Gifts house and amenities are wonderful for a large group. The décor in the house is interesting to observe, and there is plenty of room to spread out. There are many games, DVDs, and books for rainy days. The pool and outside shower plus the close proximity to the beach make the summer days in the sun fantastic. We loved cornhole and the pool.
Unfortunately, it seemed like the house was not rented the week prior to our vacation. The Keurig had mildewed water in it, and it was leaki

Perfect summer retreat
This was our 6th year at Simple Gifts. We can't say enough about the house. It feels like home every time we come back. The sunrises and sunsets are phenomenal!! We'll be back next year.

Excellent Home for Large Family or Multiple Families
Beautiful custom designed home with 3 accommodating levels and excellent views. Ocean view from 2nd level. Ocean and sound view from top level. Home is 100% furnished with everything needed. Outside grill area and pool area clean and well designed, large enough for afternoon pool parties with the kids and adults. Clean home, quite, and safe neighborhood. Very short walk to beach. Duck is great location in OBX. Road bikes to town everyday for groceries and ice-cream. 5-Star in every way.

Gorgeous views from a beautiful home
This home was beautiful! Perfect layout, beautifully decorated, spacious and overall just a comfortable home for us to relax. The views of both the ocean and sound were gorgeous. Personal call from the owner on our first day was so nice. Truly hated to leave and would definitely rent again!
