Exceptional Homes, Extraordinary Service! October 2011We enjoyed our stay and would recommend using Village Realty! We love following you on facebook and you keep us very well informed! October 2011We will def. rent from Village again. You guys made our trip great! Thank you. -- Ashley Bales October 2011Although we have been coming to the Outer Banks for several years, this was our first stay through Village Realty. We were very impressed with the level of professionalism. Also, we were thrilled to get into our house earlier than expected! -- Betty Brant September 2011Dear Mr. Oaks, (this is the owner of Village Realty) September 2011Although "Irene" threw a wrench into our plans and we lost the first 2 days, the vacation ended with success. And Village Realty did a great job of communicating with us. We will be in touch to reserve for next year!! -- T. Travas September 2011Despite missing the first few days of our vacation because of the damage hurricane Irene caused to the Outer Banks the staff at Village Realty did a great job of making our vacation possible. It was our first time visiting the Outer Banks and we will definetly be returning next year. -- J.Bodner September 2011It was really helpful to be kept abreast of things through Facebook during the Hurricane and evacuations. We had to delay our trip because of Irene and were so thankful for your staff and everyone else involved in working so hard to make things available for us to be able to come. I was so scared our whole week would be lost. Thank you so much for your hard work in getting us there. We had a wonderful time! Cannot wait to come back. -- S. Logan September 2011We have been coming to the outer banks for years, one of our favorite places! This is the first time that we used Village Realty and I have to say, by far, you were the best vacation realtors we have used. The house was SO CLEAN inside and out, check-in and out was a breeze and friendly staff. We did have to evacuate due to hurricane Irene that Thursday, which was understood, but still a bummer because we had such a great time! We hope you faired well during the hurricane. We will definitley use you again! Thanks for a wonderful vacation! -- Karen P August 2011This was our second summer in OBX and by far our best vacation ever! July 2011I just wanted you all to know that Village Realty has THE BEST website. I have been on every site who manages rental properties up and down the Outerbanks and yours is the BEST by far. Everyone else's is difficult to navigate, does not have enough photos, has too short of a description, vague about how close to the ocean it is, the sites are SLOW and not so easy to search. June 2011We had an amazing time each person we spoke to in the community were very nice and heplful. A very relaxing time. We would like to thank the entire staff at Village Realty. -- James Rittweg June 2011All and every staff memeber has been equally nice and helpful! Great bunch of people there :) Never had one single rude or unhelpful person there! Great company and have refered Village Realty to many people!!! We really love Village Realty and have referred this company to many friends! We dealt with another realty company 4 yrs ago and WILL NOT do that again!!! Thanks for always being so nice and so helpful!!!! Couldn't ask for better service! June 2011Other than the outside decks and some deck furniture needing to be cleaned everything was great. My mother loves her Village Realty recycle bag. We have rented from various realty companies in the Outer Banks - for the last 52 years -and you guys are the best! Loved the little soaps in all the bathrooms, beds made, towels placed in the bathrooms... We had an elevator issue and your guys came the same day followed by the elevator company the next day. Much better service than we had with another realty company 2 years ago. I already sent in my check to hold GypSeas for next year. Great experience! -- Jill H. June 2011We went to the office on Friday to look for homes for next year. The lady that we spoke to was very helpful. She went so far as to look up homes and print out brochures for them and then marked them on maps so we could do drive bys. I will have to say that after last years experience this was a pleasant suprise. This is what I expect from customer support. She was great. I think her nale was Vickie. -- Patricia H. June 2011Everyone at check in was very friendly and helpful! -- Paula M. June 2011, response time was very quick. Thank you all, from making my reservation through the entire vacation everything was wonderful. We will be back next year and tell all of our friends and family. June 2011We have used another service for the previous 3 years and we won't be going back. Village Realty will be our rental company from now on! -- Donna V. June 2011The house was spotless! -- Lisa S. June 2011and found him to be very helpful. -- Sandra C. June 2011and we could not have enjoyed it more. The rental process was easy, the house was fantastic and comfortable. We had a blast and will be back again! -- Ronald S. June 2011us with the outside speaker system that we could not get to work and also could not get it to work but would call the company that owners had for cable. Monday was the holiday and I thought no one would come..To our surprise, a man was out in no time. So thank you to Village worker for getting us some help. Had music all week outside! -- Karen D. June 2011a wisk and measuring spoons which were not provided and they were delivered within an hour. June 2011We planned our vacation at the last minute (made the reservation on the Friday before we arrived at the rental on Sunday) and she was very helpful. She was very responsive to my requests for information and made it possible for us to vacation on such short notice. -- Nancy M. June 2011, but it definitely won't be our last. Everyone in the family (my husband and I, 3 grown children, 3 grandchildren and 3 of their friends) loved the house with all its amenities and the Nags Head Beach community. -- Miriam B. June 2011...and definitely plan to stay with Village Realty! -- Alishia G. June 2011and were more than happy with the service provided from the Village Realty staff. Thank you. -- Jason K. June 2011and have recommended you to at least four of our friends. -- John B. June 2011We have always had a wonderful experience with Village Realty! -- Janet C. June 2011and we've already made a reservation for next year. From the minute we walked into the check-in center, the lady helping us was quick, very nice, and was as eager to get our vacation started as we were. They even gave us a bottle of wine which was an extra special touch. I just recommended Village Realty to another friend this morning. You guys definitely have customer service figured out. -- Frank W. May 2011I couldn't have timed our vacation better. Not only were we greeted with Champagne and strawberries at the rental office but I believe you provided perfect weather for the week as well (LOL). We loved the Currituck Club so much and the home we borrowed for the week was amazing. We now have aspirations of owning a second home in the Currituck Club. I would definitely recommend your company to all my friends, family and acquaintances. -- J. Deatrich May 2011we called many times for info and w/questions and they always spoke w/what sounded like a smile in their voice and if they told us they would send info they did promptly. Thank you so much. -- Sally B. May 2011Next time I would like to rent 2 homes beside each other. -- Gail H. May 2011We had never been to the Outer Banks until last year. This was our second time vacationing in Corolla in less than a year and both times we went through Village Realty. We will never look elsewhere. They are the absolute best to deal with! -- Sheila Heenan May 2011and how easy the staff makes vacation rental. We love the house and have already committed to the same one next year, which will be the fourth time in 5 years. And we've recommended both the house and Village Realty to friends. Just love working with you all! -- Lori C. May 2011Your people managed to balance modern technoligy and true Southern hospitality . You made us fell welcome . -- Anthony A. May 2011and certainly made me feel wanted!! I know that all May 2011we had with Village Realty was a pleasure! -- Jean L. May 2011they take up so much space in the car. Great that the beds are already made.I appreciated the gifts that are for the guest.The starter supplies. I think you are the best realty at the beach. I will see you again hopefully in the fall.....

May 2011This was our second time vacationing in Corolla in less than a year and both times we went through Village Realty. We will never look elsewhere. They are the absolute best to deal with! -- Shelia H. May 2011Everyone at Village seems to go the extra mile to makes things wonderful. Even when something goes wrong,they are right there to fix it and follow up on the problem.When our problems seemed to be adding up this trip,even thought they were all taken care of in a timely manner,Jeannie went out of her way to give us a gift certificate for our trouble. I love the Village people. I count them as my friends. -- Mariann Henderson April 2011My family has been coming down to OBX several times since 1981 and have stayed at various rental locations. We thoroughly enjoyed our rental through them. The rental process was extremely easy and Village Realty was very accommodating. The house was absolutely wonderful with every amenity needed, was very clean and comfortable. We had 14 people staying at Tequila Sunrise and no one felt "crowded." We cooked full meals at the house and most every utensil, etc. was there. The location of Tequila Sunrise was PERFECT! Right on the beach,within walking distance to a full service grocery store and just a short trip to Wright Brothers Memorial, Jockey Ridge, and miniature golf. One of us unfortunately sprained a knee; thank goodness the location of the house was very near to the Urgent Care medical center - we were able to continue our vacation without worry. We are all still talking about Tequila Sunrise and what fun we had. Our slogan was "Let's go fly a kite!" We had so much fun!We're already thinking about next year. -- Julie P. April 2011We had previously rented a vacation property through a few other rental companies until we found Village Realty. We have always been so impressed and pleased with the prices of the properties, the quality of the properites, and the professionalism and kindness of the staff in the office. We have recommended your agency to all of our friends and family and will never rent from anyone else! Thanks for yet another great vacation -- Jennifer Baugher April 2011I always felt welcomed and that my business was appreciated. When I first spoke to Karen, I expected my question answered on how partial rentals are listed and that was it. Instead Karen asked when I wanted to come, my criteria and what I had in mind. She stayed on the phone with me looking up properties and offering suggestions. I did call other companies and asked the same questions. None were as helpful or accomodating. I felt as if each person had all the time for me and never acted "put out" or rude. January 2011We had a great experience with Village Reality. Everyone was very friendly - when my father came in early to get the packet ( due to the holiday hours) - they called him by name! -- Polly Ross January 2011I(we) had several of your staff members help us out throughout the planning process. Unfortunately, the names do escape me. Your entire staff was exceptional and we will only use Village Realty for our future rentals. (We've used 3 other realties until we finally struck gold!) -- Valerie R January 2011Best rental experience we've had in our 10 years visiting OBX. Frienliness of staff, ease of check-in and express checkout was wonderful. Will definitely look to rent from Village Realty again. January 2011Everyone I was in contact with was extremely helpful and kind. I will always use your company from now on and I only wish we had found you sooner. Thank you so much. -- E. Woessner January 2011Reservation and check-in staff were extremely courteous and helpful. Village Realty is definitely our choice for THE rental agency in OBX! -- Debbie Buczynski November 2010I think your organization realizes, more than other agencies I have dealt with at the OBX, that the needs and concerns of the folks who rent are as important as the needs and concerns of the owners. That makes for a a pleasant business relationship aas well as a great beach experience. Keep up the good work. -- J. Boland November 2010my reservation and she almost made it sound like i was renting from a family member. she was very freindly and professional in her job. it was also great to meet the staff working there when i came to pick up the keys to the house. -- Kirk Hopkins November 2010Everyone was so nice and professional I wouldn't want to single out any. Great customer care!!! -- William Singleton November 2010The entire staff in the Nags Head office was extremely helpful, courteous, and friendly. Each person went out of their way to make our stay remarkable. Answering emails promptly and providing information regarding candles, gas grill, etc. was very impressive. It was a delight to stop in and meet the ladies in person. -- Michael Pettitt November 2010We have always been completely satisfied with Village Realty. That is why we have returned for at least the past 15+ Thanksgivings. We hope we can return many more years. Thank you for the service you render. October 2010I emailed a few times with questions. Everyone who answered me was quick, clear and friendly in their answers/information. We have been to the Outer Banks the last 3 years, had different realty companies each time and I would rate your company overall as the best. -- Dawn Smith October 2010This is the first time my wife and I have traveled to the Outer Banks and it was fabulous. We enjoyed our stay and the home we rented was spectacular. Thank you Village Realty for a wonderful vacation. -- Matt & Dawn October 2010Our stay at the Outer Banks was one of the most pleasurable we have had in recent years. Village Realty helped us to accomplish that, and our accommodations at "Sea Glass" were suberb. We have recommended to our family and friends a vacation at the Outer Banks is a must on the "bucket list!" -- Marion Burns October 2010I've been coming with my family to OBX for 7 years, previously using other rental companies. When I saw the off-season price for this house, I jumped on it - for $1500, what did I have to lose, really? I was absolutely blown away by the property, and have had nothing but positive interactions with you folks at the agency. By Tuesday the week of our vacation, I had already checked vacancy for this house for next summer, and quickly reserved it for the week of July 2, 2011 -- Kathy M October 2010The cleaning service was fantastic and friendly. The first day down the person who was taking phone calls was very very friendly and helpful! September 2010Not one particular staff member... but all of them! First time to the area and I had many questions (are dogs welcome on the beach, how do I get to OBX, etc.) and everyone was very helpful and friendly. September 2010We have already booked for next Sept and look forward to returning to the Outer Banks. Thank you for your outstanding website, customer service and beautiful homes. We have recommended Village Realty to several friends and will continue to do so. We appreciate all of you ! September 2010Just wanted to let you guys know how much we enjoyed our vacation last week in Nags Head. When I found out our house was ready early Saturday morning, I couldn't get ready and get there fast enough! You couldn't have ordered us up any better weather, and of course, our rental (NH08) was perfect! This was our 2nd year s...taying there, so it was like coming home. All of you at Village Realty are just awesome!, and we look forward to seeing you again next year! -- Dawn H September 2010The inclusion of all fees and linens was what steered me to rent from your company. It was a pleasure to do business with you and I will recommend your company to others. -- Cheryl T. September 2010I'd like to thank Village Realty for being the easiest and most simple company to deal with. The main reason we have continually chosen to go with your company is due to it's simplicity in paying for the rental home. There's the price and the tax...done. Nothing hidden. Something much appreciated. September 2010You are GREAT. We vacation at OBX every year, I normally do a general search...from here on out I will do a Village Realty search. Everything was AMAZING. no deposit, linens, phone check out! I hope I was a good guest :) August 2010Everyone that we have ever spoken to have been wonderful!! Keep up the great job!!

August 2010We have been staying at the Outer Banks for the past 25 years at least, and of all the rental property managers we have delt with Village Realty has been the best.

She suggested Jerminey by the Sea which turned out to be the PERFECT rental to fit our family. -- Laura K July 2010Best check in process of any realty company. -- Ana K. July 2010Allowing us to book our home again for next year for the same 2 weeks. July 2010I don't have any names, but all your staff is always wonderful to us.

We would rent from you again and recommend you to friends as well. -- Amanda L. June 2010I'm not sure of their name but the response time was great. Other rentals we have stayed in usually show up near the end of our stay to take care of any problems. Every time I called(twice) there was someone there to answer my questions. Check-in was a breeze and every staff member was so friendly. Makes me want to work for your company! Thanks so much for an enjoyable stay. -- J. Sanco June 2010I couldn't name one but every staff member we came in contact with seemed genuinely interested in accommodating our needs. Everyone was so pleasant and really showed us southern hospitality. -- T. Knight June 2010The staff is always pleasant and helpful. We have used this service for over 10 years and have never had a bad experience with the staff. -- Jennifer M May 2010She always remembered my name and who I was every time I called. She helped me out with every request I had in a timely manner. She was so cheerful and I looked forward to dealing with her, she helped make our wedding the most perfect wedding ever! Thanks so much Karen! -- The MCBrides May 2010We've booked with two other realtors, but Village Realty made it super easy. Love the door code access and can avoid the hassle of keys. -- Bryan S. May 2010Have rented from several of the local companies, but Village Realty is by far the best in all aspects. -- P Maddy May 2010I have always had a wonderful experience with Village Reality. My entire family rents a house in Currituck Golf Club. This time it was just my father and I. Both experiences have been great. The homes have always been exceptioal. I actually reccomended Village Reality to a co-worker. She just rented a home with her family and said she had a wonderful time. I will continue to recommend you to my friends/family.

Can't wait to get back out there again. -- Daniel Segall April 2010helpful and informative - on the phone during planning and also once we were there and stopped by the office a few times! They understood the needs of a group our size and our house was perfect for us! We had an incredibly enjoyable week with friends! -- S. Matson April 2010We have used your company for the past 3 years when making vacation reservations and have made numerous recommendations to others that they try you out. By far, Village Realty is the best company that we have worked with and have never been disappointed. Thank you for making vacation planning as low stress as possible! You guys do a great job! -- J. Baugher April 2010The hot tub in our condo was not up and running as we had been told it would be. The hot tub was our number one priority as I have RA and the tub keeps me mobile enough to enjoy my vacation. Not having the hot tub had the ability to ruin my vacation. At the time I did not tell the staff I had RA, simply because I don't like to draw attention to that if I do not have too. The staff upon learning that our hot tub was not available, gave us many very nice options. The offer we accepted was to move to another property which had hot tubs available... not one, but three. Also available were both indoor and outdoor pools. The new condo was FABULOUS and the private hot tub on the balcony was the answer to my prayers. They also gave us an extra day in the condo without any further charges. Thank you Village Realty for saving our vacation. The customer service was outstanding! -- L. Groves April 2010I wish I could remember her name, my mom thinks it was Kelly, but that doesn't sound right to me. However, if you have records of who helped us change our rental from a Sunday to Saturday rental, she was AMAZINGLY helpful and friendly. I am so disappointed in myself for forgetting her name because she truly deserves accolades! Village Realty staff have always been incredibly helpful, but this gal was even above the typical great service I have become accustom to through Village. -- Larissa F April 2010Everyone at Village Realty helped to make our trip & vacation a wonderful experience. The staff members & maintenance crew were very professional and took care of our needs in a timely manner. -- A. Japinga April 2010Stacy is the reason I selected the unit and VR ... I called several rental companies; there was no comparison. She told me the whole complex was beautiful and let me know that the outdoor pool was heated and had just opened. She was very friendly and really sold me on our decision to come to the outerbanks for our mini vacation. Check in was equally great. We arrived early and were allowed to check in which was great! -- C. Walsh April 2010he helped us find the perfect house for our trip. Thanks Kara! -- Jeff Vanzile April 2010As always, he is friendly and very helpful. However, the two female agents from 5/19-5/20 were also extremely helpful and friendly. We looked at other rental units to rent for next year and they good enough to allow us to check them out. -- David Branch April 2010Karen went above and beyond with help needed for Pet Friendly homes. -- Katherine Davis April 2010we were a little worried about choosing a property online. The house was clean and we were very impressed with the information we got online. the info and pictures were very accurate and I have already recommended your company to several work colleagues who are hoping to vacation on the Outer Banks. The house we rented was PERFECT for us. Close to the beach, large enough for everyone to have enough space and it was VERY reasonably priced. Thanks, Village Realty for making our first family vacation in 5 years a wonderful and memorable one! -- Cindy Coughlin March 2010Everyone there was great! -- Helen Johnson March 2010I believe her name was Karen...she answered the phone both times I called and was extremely helpful and friendly. We had made last minute reservations as it was and then I forgot to complete the reservation within the 24 hour period so when I called back she made it very simple and created another reservation without any hassle. Overall my first experiece with Villager and the OBX was amazing. Thank you. -- Tanya Andrea March 2010We have used several other rental companies over the past couple of years but they just don't measure up to Village. The cottages we have rented through this company are always as advertised and issues have been resolved very quickly. Thanks!! -- Frances Hammer March 2010All the girls in the realty office were efficient, professional, and extremely friendly! Maintainence was prompt in trying to resolve the a/c. Robin was awesome and helpful. -- Tomasulo March 2010at making sure that the home we'll be staying in is right for us. March 2010and kudos to all at VR for another job well done. -- Doug Marks February 2010They were all wonderful. I spoke with a couple of them and they were very friendly and helpful. -- Jean Crise January 2010We dealt with several different members of your staff as this was a last minute decision to come to the Outer Banks for the New Year celebration. All were very friendly and helpful and was appreciated greatly. -- Louis Ruffin January 2010Our main objective was to come down and check out rental property for the future and they both were very responsive to our needs. I appreciated how quickly Karen found us a property to rent when I first inquired back in October. Thank you! January 2010Laura was super responsive (I think we wrote back and forth to each other 4-5 times in one day). I appreciated the customer service that I got from your team. I was going to go with ***** ****** initially and I'm glad that I didn't. I'm sure they are a great company, it just seemed like they only thing they were interested in was filling the reservation as quickly as possible. -- Sarah Gilles January 2010She was great to work with! When I had originally been in contact we had chose another home to rent, but at the last minute the owners decided to close it up for the winter, so Karen was good enough to send me down listings of comprible homes. Once I chose the new home, she guided me thru the rental process and answered any and all questions I had. She made this process much less stressful on me. -- Kelly Davis October 2009Made recommendations for caterer & photographer. Friendly & responsive !!! -- Richard Baskin September 2009that we've made to the Outer Banks and really enjoy your professionalism and the stellar quality of your rentals. Also, the facebook profile is great. Kudos to whomever is responsible for the profile, as it got me through many a snow-covered day this winter daydreaming of our next trip to the Outer Banks. September 2009Always super customer service when calling w/questions or to make reservations. Great Staff! -- Melissa Butler September 2009Village took care of everything for us and made us feel like family. We will plan all of our OBX vacations with Village Realty. -- The Jones' August 2009Each time we have used a different rental agency (just because the house that met our requirements was with that agency). We were very pleased with Village Realty - house was very clean - there was toilet paper in every bathroom upon our arrival. None of the houses we have rented in the past had any starter supplies and I feel this is a nice feature Village Realty has. We definitely would look at your website next time we go to the Outer Banks. August 2009Every person at Village Realty that I had contact with, either via email or upon check in was extremely helpful and pleasant. August 2009The maintenance guys were very friendly and quick to respond - much appreciated. -- Jacqueline Rodes July 2009Everyone on your staff is awesome! Never had a problem and we have been coming for 5 or 6 years now. -- Brown July 2009Everyone I dealt with was friendly and helpful. One of the members of our group continually called in for updated photos and info on the new house (Sounds Like Fun) and was always treated kindly. (It definitely would have gotten on my nerves!) -- Heather Hall June 2009We have used Village in the past; didn't get to the beach last year but sent two other families to Village realty! We have tried ********** a couple times, too. Sorry! NO ONE compares to Village! Be encouraged! December 2008Dear Village Realty, |
