Albemarle Sound Vacation Packages

One of our favorite places to stay on the OBX

Cute unit but not worth it - the after hours check in was about the only smooth process. I went to pay the $10 nightly fee, but their system was down. We left our number so we could come back later. Amanda called a few hours later who very rudely stated that we had a balance due on our account that we had to pay immediately. We went to the office and gave our card to pay the amount owed. Amanda called the next day stating that our card was declined. Turns out that she charged someone's MasterCard and we only use Visa. Once we got that situated, we went out to do some shopping and while we were out, I received another phone call from Amanda advising that the housekeepers had informed her that when they went to clean our unit, all of our stuff was still in there. I advised that we still had another day on our reservation. Amanda was adamant that we were supposed to check out that day and had already checked us out (she charged us $40 for nightly rate even though she checked us out after 3 days). After a few minutes of back and forth, she admitted we were supposed to check out the following day. We got back to the unit and the door was unlocked and slightly opened from where housekeeping was there earlier, leaving our items unsecured. When I addressed this with her in person, she was overall dismissive. She said that due to the inconvenience, we wouldn't be charged for the 4th night. I had prepaid for the trip months ago and have yet to see a credit on my bank account.

It was pretty nice for the off season. Pools aren’t heated fyi

excellent i will recommend it

I liked that the property was directly ocean front, even though it was a rather stenious walk to get to the beach. The property had many, many stairs, so not ideal for older folks or those with disability. The pools were nice, never over crowded. We also enjoyed using the charcoal grills (would have been nice if they offered gas grills). The propery did have a few restarants and a icecream shop within walking distance, everything else was a short drive away. The condo itself had everything we needed to cook in and stay in comfort. You only get two rolls of TP so might want to bring your own, same with garbage bags, and dishwasher tablets. Disposal of trash was less than convenient, was at the other end of the complex and didn't offer recycling. All in all it was adequate for our family vacation.
