The Gem

Whether youve visited OBX before or its your first time ever, you will not be disappointed with the location of The Gem in Nags Head. Being close to Jennettes Pier, this house fit the needs of our multi-family vacation plus gave us other options to explore. Plus we really liked being within walking distance to our favorite OBX breakfast restaurant, Sam and Omies (another OBX tradition for our family). Its a great house that had all the features we look for when booking in OBX - Ocean front, 8 bedrooms, private pool and elevator - those are a must for our family vacation.

Again, the staff at village did an outstanding job. Requests for maintenance service, assistance with electronics and housekeeping service were met the same day with friendly, competent and professional staff. Thank you Village staff!

We come to OBX every year and this was by far one of the most enjoyable stays yet. The house was spacious, great location. We had a party of 12 and it was never crowded. The basketball goal was fixed immediately upon request. The customer service at Village Realty was impeccable. Enjoyed customizing our seashell to add to the collection that someone started from previous vacations at the The Gem. I highly recommend this vacation home, you will not be disappointed. God Bless!

Unbelievable value at The Gem! Very spacious rooms, large living areas with variety to meet interests. Perfect location, especially for our wedding at Jennettes Pier! This house suited our family, bridal party, and friends for our event! We had so much fun and look forward to being back!

House was very nice for our family. It could use some updates/maintenance with kitchen appliances,outdoor stairs & pool area. We had rented a Tent Beach package for our stay. However , there is an annual surf competition takes place in front of home and the water is only for surf competition - no swimmers. We could not put the tent in front of the Home where the Grand stand for the judges and surfers sit..While the younger kids enjoyed, it was a bit inconvenient for senior citizens in our home to walk a few blocks for beach access. We wish we had advanced notice of the location of the competition which takes place annually the week before Labor Day. We did enjoy the early Sat check in that Village Realty offers.

we celebrated my Mothers 80th birthday and couldn't have been at a more special place. so lovely and warm. The view on the main floor is amazing and welcomed us every day with beauty. The elevator stopped 2 x, but was tended to immediately so no worries. We all thought that every detail for having large crowds was well thought out, so we had enough of everything.
we are discussing renting again, and look forward to staying again.. miss it already.
Also, Village Realty is Top Notch Best company in my book.

Excellent home with all the needed amenities. Great location close to necessary attractions, dining, and shopping. Our second experience with Village Realty and, as always, a very positive experience.

I apologize for the bear picture I put on my review. I accidentally put it on there. It was from the Wild Refuge place in Manteo. Couldn't figure out how to change it! Oh well, that's me and technology! Had a lovely time! Thanks again!

The vacation was the best! Village Realty is top notch! Wonderful people and a most wonderful house and vacation! Can't be begin to tell you just how much we enjoyed our stay!
