Very disappointed
We booked this cottage for a family wedding. I checked the reviews and it was 10.0/10. Not so. The location is definitely a 10, but the place is tired. ( Rubber stoppers in tubs, faucet handle broken off in main bathroom, living room sofas scratched, no icemaker, tired decorative pillows, kitchen linoleum cracked. All that we could have overlooked had we had consistent hot water. When I contacted the owner, they stated they had been there the week before and with intermittent showers they were able to get warm, not hot, water. They had scheduled a plumber to come AFTER our visit so as to not disturb us. We did not have hot water to shower or wash dishes. I had to heat up water on the stove to wash dishes. The dishwasher did not work, but they said that was due to having the child lock on. I tried several times to hold and unlock, but it did not work. I am hard-pressed to give this cottage more than a 6.0 the bed and mattresses were good. Not having basic amenities like hot water is really a drawback. We checked out two days early and they are going to be refunding us for those two days. She stated that when her housekeeper went in that there was warm water in the kitchen and that the dishwasher worked. There was no hot water when we needed it. It messed up our dinner plans, etc.. I was really saddened by the attitude taken by the owner. No one should have to stay anywhere where they can’t count on having hot water. They knew something was wrong with the water heater.

Dolphins, pelicans and beautiful weather.
We saw so very many dolphins this trip along with a lot of pelicans. Watching them from the huge deck with the magnificent views was amazing. Weather was great, sunny and warm. Free Netflix is always a plus. Great restaurants, bagels and a bakery all within a few miles of Hip Nautical keeps cooking at a minimum. We hope to get back again next year.

Amazing location!
HipNautical is a wonderful find! Sitting on the deck you feel as though you are right on the beach! The house was very inviting with a lot of little touches that arent provided in other houses - a sweet welcome gift, kitchen supplies, toilet paper, kleenex, and even flashlights for the beach at night! The streaming services were also a welcomed surprise and tvs in all the bedrooms was really nice. Vicki was very communicative throughout the duration of our stay. I would definitely stay here again.

Relaxation from the second we put the code in.
The property is WONDERFUL!!! Litterally 20' from the beach and in an amazing location in Kill Devil Hills. The welcome gift will bring back memories for years. We had an issue with food pickup / delivery timing and Vicki was so helpful and returned our communication almost immediately offering a quick solution that saved our first day. The house wa so clean and perfect for our needs. It reminded me of the beach house i would go to with my family when I was a kid which was a great trip down memory lane. Only issue we had was when lightning struck the beach immediately behind the house which knocked out the wifi for the duration of our stay but that turned out to be very fortuitous as it gave us a solid reason for not communicating with work and checking emails which is truly what a vacation should be. When that happened we informed Vickie and she worked dilligently to try to find solutions but we told her not to worry as it actually helped us unplug and just sit and watch to waves, engage each other verbally (I know, we actually talked...lol) and enjoy the beach and if we really needed to get on line we would just use our hotspots from our phones. I would truly recommend this home for a vacation and definitely any property that Vickie is involed with. Thanks for everything Vickie and remember, reach out when / if you plan a trip to Boston.

No matter the weather, the view never disappoints
My 2nd year and 4th visit to Hip Nautical. Even with some rain, wind, as well as beautiful sunny days, the ocean view from the deck, screened-in porch and sitting area inside was always amazing. Well stocked house and also free Netflix makes for great movie watching on rainy days. Quick response always from owner with any questions. Counting days already to my September trip. Thank you Vickie and Don for sharing your home with others and for the very nice gift.

It’s like coming home
This was our second visit and it was every bit as wonderful as the first time. Unfortunately there were no dolphin sightings but that was the only disappointment and was nothing to do with the home. Due to outside temperatures we had to fuss with the thermostat quite a bit, Vickie was fantastic with responding to our inquiries.

HipNautical is a wonderful property that is very well appointed with everything we needed. Vicki is a great host and quickly responded to any questions. There is nothing like staying right on the beach and waking to the sound of the waves. Although the weather during our stay was not what we had hoped, we still had a very relaxing visit. Thank you Vicki!!

Paradise!
We had another amazing stay at Hip Nautical in Kitty Hawk. The cottage is in a very convenient spot and right on the beach. It has a nice large deck and a covered and screened in porch with new furniture. The cottage is well maintained and the owners are wonderful to work with. They do a lot of extra things to make the cottage special. This was our third time there and definitely not our last!

Outdoor fun and spectacular views
This place has amazing outdoor space! We went during December, but I kept wishing it was summer or fall so I can just hang out either in the screened porch, back porch, or under the house to enjoy the beautiful ocean views. The house is cozy with lots of thoughtful amenities, and the owner is kind and attentive. Very glad we came.

Perfect holiday getaway
HipNautical was the perfect place to spend the week between Christmas and New Years! We wanted to get away from the hustle and bustle and disconnect for a few days. Vickie and Don's place was so comfortable and had everything we needed to relax and enjoy a much needed break. Our elderly doggo was so happy to spend the days on the deck overlooking the beach. And man, the views are so beautiful! We can't recommend this place enough.

We had a wonderful stay. Access to the property was seamless. Property was as described. The Host, Vickie was very prompt in responding to us regarding an issue. Issue was resolved. The beach access was awesome. Truly the best part of this stay was the deck & screened porch. We all spent many hours enjoying the sound of the ocean , watching the sunrises, dolphins and pelican "platoons". We had a most enjoyable time. Our family ranged in age from 18 to 88. Accommodations were satisfactory to all. Thank you gift was a lovely and most welcomed surprise. Amenities were great/beach towels/linens/kitchen ware etc. Thank you Vickie!

The view is amazing. We sat on the deck watching the sunrise and saw dolphins on multiple days! Vickie and Don were very responsive and helpful, they are lovely to work with. The house was clean and very well stocked with cooking equipment, spices, dishes, utensils, extra towels, blankets, even some cleaning supplies. They also had board games and Netflix for off-beach time. The kids loved the screened porch. They even had couch covers for the doggie hang out area. Easy beach access and the beach was not crowded. Great stay, would recommend and return.

Another awesome stay even with Nor’easter
Even tho the nor’easter was with me on this, my second trip to Hip Nautical, the time spent was perfect! Watching windsurfers every day right from the comfort of the 2nd living room with a huge oceanfront window was awesome, as well as watching regular surfers b4 the ocean got too rough. If it rains there are sooooo many games for kids with a big dining room to use as well and a new screened-in porch where they can play. They also provide Netflix, Disney and Hulu and I got to watch many, many movies during my stay. The house is clean and well stocked with everything you need. Linens provided is a definite plus. Another plus with my new rescue pup was going right out back on the HUGE deck and walking her down the steps onto the beach with beach access RIGHT next to the house. Views are phenomenal in both directions with no houses to your right and any to the left are blocked by the house. The house also blocks the winds on the deck to your left if coming from that direction. I can’t say enough about the location, view and amenities that await you. Looking forward to my next trip there and luckily I scored two more trips this year. Thank you Vickie and Don for sharing your wonderful home with all of us.
