Hotel California

A group of us ladies take half a week every fall at Emerald Isle for a ladies trip where we can unwind and recharge. Thanks to hurricane Flo we thought it wouldn't happen this year. Luckily we were able to book Hotel California. The house was beautiful and accommodated twelve ladies very comfortably. Also, we experienced a slight issue but Village Realty was quick to respond in a professional, hospitable manner. Would recommend both the rental agency and home.

We have absolutely loved every aspect of this vacation!! Perfect for very young & old alike! The house is gorgeous, roomy & we’ll stocked!! The pool was perfect for our family! We enjoyed the hot tub & the theater as well!! Cannot wait to come another year!!

We didn't think we would be able to vacation at the OBX this year because of Hurricane Florence. We were a day late, but had a wonderful week of great sunny weather and warm days. The house needed some attention, especially a new, easier to use (and not broken) cooktop. The double oven is convenient but needs attention, too. This is our second year in this home and we just love it! Right across the street from the beach. I would say the house is quite well used by many families and as such, shows some wear by this time of year. Village Realty is great and attends to requests quickly!

Our group of 9 adults and 3 teenagers enjoyed the house, weather and especially the pool. Room layout worked for us; dinner table seating for all of us was a bit tight. Having 2 clothes washers/dryers was a real benefit and was an upgrade over the property we had rented the past 5 years. The biggest negative was the several WiFi deadspots in the large house; a mesh WiFi network like we have at our house would solve this issue.

This property is a quick drive to Walmart/Food Lion but is quite a hike at 2.2 miles, and is very convenient for a quick jaunt to the beach and surf.

Overall, we have already booked this property for next year's Outer Banks visit.

The house was cozy and perfect for my stay! Everything in the house was functional (with the exception of some issues hooking up an HDMI Cable to the projector). The pool was a perfect temperature all week, and the house was right across the street from the beach which made going from one to the other easy!!

I would absolutely recommend this rental to anyone looking to enjoy the Outer Banks

Loved our stay at Hotel California! Perfect location!!! If you can’t get beach front this is seriously the next best thing!! Pool is private, big, with a lot of space around it for your family to hang out! Theatre room was perfect for our family as we always watch a video from the previous yrs vacation....makes for a perfect family movie nite 😊. Plenty of space in all of the rooms! If you have babies the only thing that was a little difficult was that sounds travels from floor to floor so if you have light sleepers and a full house (and you’re loud like we are 😊) that can be a little difficult! Overall we loved this house and we ve been coming to the outer banks for 30 yrs and probably have rented from Village Realty 28 of those years!!

Our family truly enjoyed our first vacation in OBX. Hotel California met all our needs..it’s a beautiful home designed with a big family in mind. The spacious rooms & panoramic view of the ocean was spectacular. Short walk to the beach was great! I would highly recommend Village Realty..we’re very pleased with your service...from office & service staff!

Great house!! Beautiful and well kept Felt like home away from home. The home was well anointed and very comfortable with all comforts with great ocean views. Would definitely recommend and we already reserved the same week next year! Anne Cretella

We all had a wonderful week! This is my 3rd time staying in this house. We love everything about the house and location! However I do think it needs some tender loving care especially outside and the landscaping around the pool area. I want to thank the manager for allowing us to hear the pool even though it was past the deadline! We will definitely be back!! 😊

Third year in a row - excellent stay at Hotel California and Village Realty always on the ball. They came and taught my brother-in-law how to use the home theater, brought us some more lounge chairs and fix one of the clothes dryers. The house remains beautiful and feels like home. We're signed up for same time next year. Found out my nephew and wife are having a baby girl!!!!!! Can't wait to bring her next year. Excellent meals at Steamers and Argyles. Too much cooking at home - more pizza (Southern Shores Pizza is excellent) next year!!!! We were sweating out Irma the whole time but only had one day of clouds and wind. Can't wait to come back!!!! Two weeks goes to fast.

We loved Hotel California!! The house was a short easy walk to the beach, had a well stocked kitchen, and was very clean!! We would definitely rent this house again!

House was great, awesome having two ice machines, came in handy. Kids loved the movie theatre. Very spacious and great having multiple hang out areas for kids and adults. We loved how close of a walk it was to beach. Beach was very quite and private. I would recommend fixing the main stairs as well as the 3 stairs by the pool area, and some of the trim work by pool area. Overall great experience at the house would recommend to family and friends.

we loved this house and will definitely return! we did think some instructions for the stove would be useful--it took us a while to figure out to hold the red button 3 seconds to unlock the controls! Also, the kitchen really needs a working electric mixer as well as better stocked mixing bowls and measuring supplies and good knives.

For the 2nd year in a row, we had a fab time in Hotel California. We arrived during Hermine and were lucky it wasn't as bad as we feared. By Sunday, we were in sunshine at the beautiful pool. Village Realty always takes great care of us and we totally appreciate it. Coming back next year and for many years to come, hopefully.

The house was amazing. A bathroom for everyone within their bedroom and a large kitchen with plenty of storage. The two ice makers came in very handy and we all loved the theatre room.

We have had a wonderful 2 weeks at Hotel California. The furnishings are beautiful and the weather has been great! We love having the sun all day long at the pool. We'll be back!

Our family loved our vacation. Hotel California was a dream house. We will cherish our memories and look forward to next year's trip!
