We enjoyed our stay at Nags Head. We had 16 people of varying ages. The bedroom set up was perfect for us. There was plenty of seating. We were able to use the grill for easy meals. Everyone loved the pool and hot tub. The views were beautiful. We loved being beach front and lucked out with the weather. We would recommend and definitely stay again.

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!

Aside from a funky decor, the place was great. There was enough room for us and all our kids and grandkids. They totally enjoyed the sand and pool. And the fact canny and ice cream stands were close. They loved the aquarium. Sunrise were gorgeous.

We rented this house for us and about half of our wedding guests. It was an AMAZING week. The house had a lot of great amenities and you really can't beat the location. We had an awesome week and made wonderful memories.

Response from Beach Realty of North Carolina, Inc.
Congratulations, Keara! Thank you for choosing The Good Life to host your special day! This home is PERFECT for events! The owner's daughter, Chelsea, had a rehearsal party on 10/10/2020 and it was AMAZING also! The food was catered on the Oceanfront, 2nd level, with awesome pool and ocean views! The pool area was an open bar set up and desserts were served on the 3rd level. You can't beat the number of restrooms, either, 8 full and 2 half! A fun fact about this home: The 3 murals in the top living room were beautifully painted to spell out Chelsea's full name! We can't wait to welcome you back for your first anniversary!

We come to the Outer Banks at least once a year. This was by far the largest home we have ever rented. The home is nice, spacious, plenty of room for a large group. Having a bathroom with every bedroom is AMAZING! It's nice to have the startup necessities when we arrive (paper towels, toilet paper and soap). Loved having the bed linens and towels included, definitely saves travel space. Pool was Awesome! Hot tub was nice. We love to the huge kitchen was great...however, the lack of kitchen pots and pans (no small saucepans in the entire house)and kitchen gadgets was a little disappointing. Some people may come to the beach and never we can see how it may not be as important to some as it is to others. Beautiful home, great amenities and ocean views/access! Would definitely consider renting again in the future! Thanks for sharing your home with us for our stay!

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!

Our group of 18 (ages 2-70) stayed in this beautiful home last week. It was fabulous. Location could not be better and the beach was great. The house is very large and all of the beds extremely comfortable. So nice that every bedroom has it's own bathroom. The kitchen is the most well stocked we've seen. The two refrigerators, sinks, ovens, and dishwashers really came in handy. Lots to do within walking distance. The pier restaurant is a must, as is the pizza from the Lucky 12 right across the street. Only a few small maintenance issues which were quickly resolved. I can't say enough about this great property!

This was on my bucket list to do with my kids and grandkids and we had awesome time. The house was perfect and any problem I emailed Elaine at Beach Realty and she would respond quickly and have someone to the house almost immediately to address the request or problem.
We were disappointed the hot tub wasn't able to be repaired until 2 days before we were to leave, and the pool was very cloudy, but that didn't stop the grandsons from having a blast in it. A few things the owners could add to the house would be slow cookers, crockpot and a large pot for seafood boils. Other than that I wish we would have had a few cleaning supplies so we could keep up the glass dining table. Most people don't want to buy this as they wouldn't use much, but if provided would tend to keep things cleaned. Thanks for a great time at this beautiful house. My only suggestion to anyone is to utilize the realtor and email them with any concerns. Otherwise they won't know of a problem. Don't give a bad rating if you have not addressed the problem first and then if it wasn't taken care of reviews can reflect that then.

Response from Beach Realty of North Carolina, Inc.
Thank you for taking the time to provide us feedback regarding your recent stay at "The Good Life" We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your time spent here on the Outer Banks! Elena is an amazing team player and is always willing to go above and beyond to ensure each guest is taken care of. We are sorry to hear about the issues with the hot tub. Unfortunately when these situations arise, we are at the mercy of the vendors and getting parts ordered to rectify the issue. We appreciate the advice you have shared with other vacationers! We hope to welcome you back to the Outer Banks again in the near future! Update: A NEW Hot Tub has been installed. The owner has addressed your recommendations for kitchen equipment, as well. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

The house was very spacious and the views were wonderful. Walked the beach every day with my dog. There would be alot more to do and see in warmer weather. It was perfectly located between our two favorite restaurants, The Kill Devil Grill and the Blue Moon Beach Grill and right by the Nags Head fishing pier. I would suggest changing out the pedestal sinks in the bedroom baths for storage vanities so there is room to put your toiletries. There were a few minor things wrong when we arrived but were taken care of in a timely manner by a wonderful staff, especially Josh, the maintenance guy, who took the time to talk to us old folks. And it could've been a little cleaner, but all in all we had a great time.

Thank you for your feedback regarding "The Good Life!" It is hard to beat the ocean views from this amazing rental. Being Oceanfront brings a whole new meaning to vacationing on the Outer Banks. The Kill Devil Grill and Blue Moon are some of the local favs as well! We are thrilled that you had the opportunity to dine at both of them during your stay. We will pass on the suggestion regarding storage vanities to the owner. We look forward to welcoming you back to the Outer Banks in the near future! UPDATE: Please note, the owner has addressed your recommendation for updating the pedestal sinks and vanities have been installed for the 2021 season.

For over 25 years I have been coming to the Outer Banks and I honestly believe that this was the nicest property that we have ever stayed in. Beach Reality was a joy to deal with and The Good Life rental lived up to its name. The interior is beautifully decorated and the numerous amenities, (pool, hot tub, and game room) kept everyone busy. The location of this property worked out really well for those heading out to other activities. Thanks so much for a fantastic week.

Great location, Wonderful cottage, only the living room sofa was uncomfortable and needed a good cleaning or replacement. All other furnishings very nice and the master bedroom bed was very comfortable. Is there a perfect cottage, no, but the Good Life comes close.

My husband and I enjoyed a fantastic vacation at The Good Life (La Buena Vida.) It is a beautiful house with priceless unobstructed views of the ocean. My only complaint would be that the view out of the front window is not quite as picturesque, as it is located on the Beach Road directly across from a bar. Unknowingly, we booked our vacation during Bike Week in Nags Head. The bar seemed to be the most popular destination spot for the Bike Week crowd. It did not ruin our stay by any means, but all those bikes revving their engines at the same time can get pretty noisy. Vroom! Vroom! Needless to say, if you're looking for a relaxing getaway just be aware of the events going on in the area before booking your stay. The pool was fantastic, the hot tub was steamy (although the jets were not very powerful), and the house was very clean. I usually feel the need to disinfect everything when I go on vacation and that was not the case with this house. This is a great property and I would highly recommend it to anyone going on an adultcation or a trip with the whole family. Lots of fun amentities to keep the grown ups and the kids entertained!

Hi John! Thank you for leaving a review of your stay! We are glad to hear that you and your family enjoyed The Good Life! Bike week can be quite loud, we very much agree, but happy to hear you didn't let it effect your vacation. Hope to see you again soon for a little taste of 'The Good Life'! Update: Please note, the owner has addressed the hot tub issue and has installed new one. Living Room Furniture also updated.
