great stay!
We are five friends who do a retreat outing each year. This house is perfect for it. It is spacious, has a good location, and has a responsive staff. We had a TV problem and had a new one installed within hours of our call. Thank you. Because some of us have knees that are not what they used to be, the elevator is especially appreciated for moving in and out.Because we come during the off-season, we do not use the pool or hot tub but still get to the beach to walk and collect shells.

Good Life was Good
Very pleasant stay. The weather was great.
Didnt need to contact management for anything.
Some TV remote batteries and light bulbs needed replacing. Not worth raising a fuss. We simply bought some and replaced them.

This really was The Good Life
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!

The Good Life
Great location and great layout of the house. Only issue we had is that we received a text saying the house was ready at 5:30pm. Upon arrival the cleaners were still there working. We had to wait another 45 minutes to an hour to unload our cars.

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.

Awesome time at the Good Life!
It was the 4th time staying at the Good Life. Love the location and the house! 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!

La Buena Vida indeed
We were the first of our party to arrive and we delighted to discover no one still cleaning up at 4 pm and the combination sent us by Beach Realty opened the door right up. The elevator got us and luggage upstairs and we settled in on the top floor which offers a wonderful view of the ocean, dunes, a local pier and a huge vista of sky. Lots of windows and lots of porch and deck space with plenty of chairs. The living area provides seating for even large groups (we had only seven people). The kitchen is

Beautiful Views; Excellent Vacation
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 pa

Fantastic Fall Week in OBX
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.

First time in outer banks - good life
The house is beautiful with a great lay out where you have huge bedrooms with the pool and hot tub easily accessible. All beds were comfortable with sheets and towels provided. We chatted and compared next door locations with neighbors as the houses were all owned/operated by same entity.. I would say this house needs a little freshening up, like lots of burned out light bulbs, very dusty ceiling fan blades/air vent grates and some green algae near some pool fountain areas. Again a beautiful home, just l

Very nice house but....
This house was beautiful and we had a great stay. We had just a couple of issues. One of the bathroom doors was locked when we arrived, there were no useable pots of pans (all were rusty), one of the dishwashers did not work and one of the refrigerators was leaking water on the floor. The on-line photos are about out of date as well. Everything was fixed very quickly by the management company and overall we had a great vacation.

Excellent week. Fantastic location. Very nice house. A lot of details need attending to - one stove trips the breaker, one toaster doesn't work, hot tub jets are very weak, some windows screens are torn/broken.

Anniversary Getaway
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 bik
