The location was what I needed!
My stay at Flip Flop was excellent. Quiet at night. Loved the view to the ocean. Not a big fan of the big, aggressive mosquitoes though. Will come back again with my family. Thank you - this was a short but really needed vacation.

Flip Floppin’ To The Beach
We loved this condo. It was in the perfect location. A great covered patio to sit and watch the sunrise with a cup of coffee and listen to the waves. It was clean! I’m big on cleanliness and always fear walking into a new place that it isn’t going to be up to my standard and this place did not disappoint me! We would for sure stay here again.

Surprisingly Nice!
I’ve always stayed in Avon in a big house on the ocean. This trip was just me and my dog so I needed someplace smaller. The condo is immaculately clean. You hear no noise from the neighbors. The pool is great. Easy beach access. I’m truly surprised and how nice it is.

Very nice
We enjoyed our stay at Flip Flop. The view of the beach was beautiful and we really enjoyed the chairs on the balcony. We would go out every morning and have our coffee while enjoying views of ocean. There were some good books provided with stories of the Outer Banks. And we used the air fryer one evening to cook pork chops! We would go back to this vacation spot. 😊

Beautiful place, amazing week
We spent the first week of May in this one bedroom unit Great size for a week, nicely set up and decorated, kitchen had everything ( even kitchen scissors). The deck looks out on the pool, the dune, the shoreline, ocean and skyline. My partner spent mornings bicycling around the area. People we met, tourists like us and locals, were lovely. We are thankful for a beautiful stay on a still uncrowded ocean beach. Glorious! The screen door screen was torn apart and useless. I contacted Vaccassa but never heard back.

Comfortable place right on the beach
Great location, loved spending time on the balcony. Comfortable space for 2 plus dog. Could use a though cleaning, you could see dark dust around the vent grates and ceiling fan blades. Could use a hair dryer, kitchen towels and a dust pan to go with the brooms.

Not impressed
Upon arrival, my key was not left in the drop box and the office was not even supposed to be closed but was so I had to call and have someone bring me the key. The condo smelt so bad I had to buy candles. The bed was hard as a rock. I never seen one luggage cart. I was told it was OK for my parents (who were vacationing the same time as me close by) to come have dinner but the lady that worked at the condo building gave us such bad looks in the parking lot that my mom was too nervous her car would get towed. I had to check out early due to flooding on highway 12 around the condo area and suffered flood damage to my car. Definitely a flip flop vacation. I seen roaches on the balcony, possums in the parking lot and crabs in the pool. I will NOT be staying here again.

Disappointed
The location was wonderful with a beautiful view, private pool, and easy beach access. We knew it was pet friendly and thought that was nice. We did not bring any pets. The condo presented as pictured in VRBO. Our dissatisfactions were with the lack of communication and response time. Our check in was 9/13/21 on the morning of 9/14/21 I spoke with a representative from Hatteras realty explaining the TV in sitting area did not work, that there there were no batteries in the remote controls, and I switched batteries from bedroom remote and that did not solve the problem. I also advised her that closet contained wobbled up blankets thrown on top of the shelf and pillows laying on the floor. Her response to that was that the blankets and pillows were not their responsibility and probably left by previous renters. She said she would complete an email to the Hatteras office and ask them to look into it. On 9/15 I had no response from anyone and went to the Hatteras Office and the manager provided batteries and said he would contact someone to fix the TV. On 9/16 I Emailed Vacasa advising them of the condition of the condo and that after using a pillow which dropped on the floor while sleeping that I awoke with multiple bites which I believed to be flea bites on the L side of my neck. I also provided pictures of the floor that I swept which contained 1/2 inch black hairs. I was then contacted by Hatteras realty via phone stating they would get an exterminator and have the TV fixed. I was also offered a reduction of $125.00 in my bill since I had to complete cleaning. The TV was fixed on the 9/16. and the extermination was completed on 9/17. Our check out was 9/18. We would not go back to Durant Station again.

Everything met or exceeded expectations. A great pet friendly place to stay. I would have preferred a little more comfortable chairs in the sitting area rather than two futon type pieces. We would definitely visit and stay there again.

Great condo
Didn’t like the late check in. We were told the place was being “cleaned and it wouldn’t be done until 4:00. Don’t think that was true. The girl at the real estate office came out right at 4pm to drop several keys in the key box. Check in is too late and check out is too early. Our stay was good and we enjoyed the beach.
