Our family had an amazing first-time stay at Sandbar. Everything you could want in a beach house; this place has it!Sandbar is the most well-stocked beach house we have ever stayed at, from the kitchen (there's an air fryer!) to the living space to the shed. Heads up, the kitchen is on the third floor (which is also the main living level, including the living room and the primary king room). The house is spacious. Living room has lots of seating, games & DVDs. All of the bedrooms were nice and cozy. Mixed reviews on the mattresses, with some guests finding a few uncomfortable. I enjoyed the king mattress, but I can see why it needs an upgrade soon. In the primary bedroom, the door to the balcony was impossible to open. Not a big deal, as there is access off the kitchen.There’s a fire pit! So bring stuff for s'mores (left skewers in the bottom drawer to the right of the sink). 2 grills outside, a hot tub, lots of parking. The shed has a ton of beach equipment (chairs, toys, a beach cart, bikes & more).Floors are mostly hardwoods now. House was very clean. Would have never known it’s a pet friendly house as there wasn’t a trace of pet hair/fur and no smell whatsoever. Laundry room on the second floor with a second refrigerator/freezer. Cute decor throughout the house.Communication was easy and we were offered to extend our stay.The pictures don’t do it justice. So many additions/upgrades have been made. We would not hesitate to stay here again and recommend it to others!

Great family vacation
This property was perfect for 3 generations of family and friends. We loved the layout. The location was excellent for us and the beach club pool was a great plus. We arrived before the check-in time and just hung out at the pool until it was time. The house is well-furnished and maintained. Everyone wants to come back next year!

Everything we need is available and it couldn't be more perfect for us. The house if filled with all necessary and needed items and is in a perfect location. Working with Charles is always easy, professional and yet friendly and kind. we will be back again next year.

Prime Location
We were an extended family with 8 adults and 3 children. The Sandbar had bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate everyone. The top floor bedroom and bathroom were wonderful. Some of the other beds were not as comfortable.
The hot tub was a big hit with hurricane Debby hanging around. We loved the location by beach and clubhouse.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the beach house. It was perfect for our family and it had all the amenities we needed. With parking at the beach, access to the beach was simple and easy. In the 40+ years that we have vacationed on the Outer Banks this was one of our best experiences. This will be our top choice for a future vacation.

Enjoyable stay! Great location!
Our party, that included adults to an infant, enjoyed our stay. Great location to everything you need or want! We loved the community pool and easy beach access. House comfortable fit us all with plenty of space. Hot tub was clean and loved using it! Only complaints were the house wasn't the cleaniest (i.e. we needed to sweep and wash some dishes), we only had one spare trash bag, and the bunk room mattresses weren't the best. We had issues with the smoke detectors going off due to sensor issues (we think). Charles was responsive to messages with me, however it was not resolved before we left. Overall, we would book again!

Everything you need and close to the beach
We were extremely pleased with our stay at The Sandbar. It had everything you needed and more. It was about a block from the beach and in a really safe area. They even had beach toys and beach chairs, so leave yours at home. The owner was extremely responsive to us prior to and during our stay. We couldn't be happier. The house was clean and included linens on the beds. We loved the proximity to everything. This is a great VRBO. We plan on staying again.

Charles always is just a text away and responds quickly. We love his home and that we can treat it like ours for a week every year. We wouldn’t go any where else. My self.

Our stay at the Sandbar
The house was fantastic and well appointed. Close to many restaurants and the grocery store. We liked that it is located in a quieter section of Nag’s Head. Very close to the beach, but during our time there the beach ramp across the street was closed for construction. We had to find a different beach access, but that wasn’t an issue. We liked, as others have said, that the light switches are labeled – that is a nice touch. There are many things to do if you don’t want to do the beach, all very close to the house. We visited Bodie Island Lighthouse, Jockey’s Ridge State Park, the Wright Brothers Museum/Memorial, and the Aquarium in Manteo. All are within a few minutes’ drive. We loved the hot tub, and it was very well maintained. One point to mention: while there are TV’s in every bedroom, they are not all hooked up to cable/roku. We brought our own Chromecast, which solved the problem, but had we not, it could have been an issue since we had a few bad weather days. Overall, we found the house to be very family friendly, clean, and with everything we needed for a week’s stay. We would highly recommend the Sandbar!

Excellent location
This property overall was great. The location to the beach access was ideal. The property was really close to a couple grocery stores and several restaurants. The house had everything we needed to prepare our meals for the week.
The only thing that could be improved is the cleanliness of the house. I went through and vacuumed the house before we settled in and found dust and hair balls behind some furniture but I suppose that’s to be expected with a pet friendly house. One of the toilets hadn’t been cleaned very well. However, with all that being said, we will highly consider this house for our vacation next year.
