Around the corner are sleeping quarters with a pyramid bed and a nearby full bath with a shower. This level has deck access to the oceanfront swimming pool with a hot tub and a furnished sundeck. Recently renovated, the pool area now features a tropical bar with a fridge, outdoor shower, and outdoor bathroom. The second level opens with a large oceanfront king main first bedroom and a king main second bedroom offering a TV, a full bath with a tub/shower, and access to a large, shaded, oceanfront deck with deck furniture. The third bedroom has two bunks, great for the kids. The fourth bedroom has a queen bed, a TV, and deck access, and is close to a hallway half-bath.

It's all eyes open to the ocean on the third level which includes tall cathedral ceilings and plank flooring throughout this open floor plan.

Great house!!
We couldn't have chosen a better house for our family vacation. Plenty of space for everyone to relax separately or together, comfortable beds, gorgeous views from every angle...no issues, just a wonderful home base for a relaxing week!

Steep climb to the beach with rough surf. Great location if all guests are young.
Beautiful views and close to the water. Highly recommend for young families. Not recommended for those who may want beach time but would have difficulty climbing up a 5 - 6 story stair climb. Percect if able and looking to get daily exercise. House is pet friendly and the elevator is a nice touch for getting groceries in the house. Highly recommend letting vacasa know asap if you arrive and house needs attention. They responded quick to our requests.

Great stay
We really enjoyed staying here for our week in OBX. The house was very clean and comfortable. The deck had excellent views of the ocean and it was just a short walk to the water. It was a little cool to enjoy the pool but the hot tub was nice to relax in. We enjoyed cooking some meals at home in the well stocked kitchen. The elevator was a nice add to help bring the heavy bags and supplies up and down as well as our elderly dog who can't climb stairs as easily anymore. We had great Verizon cell signal although the provided WIFI was excellent. The downstairs game room had plenty of things to keep us busy on a rainy day or evening (pool, games, puzzles, books, movies). Overall we really enjoyed our time here and are looking forward to a visit again in the future!

Very nice house
Good location, good views. On the beach but not much beach to really enjoy. The pool gets a ton of sand blown into it so it looks dirty but it isn’t. We asked for the heat for the pool turned on but it was a little chilly, the hot tub was way too hot to get into. All of the important areas were clean, areas up high and under beds and couches were not so clean. The house was attractive with great amenities. We found several long screws in the driveway, after puncturing one of our tires, fortunately only one tire was destroyed, could have been several.

Perfect family getaway
This house was perfect for our family of 10 and our little doggo. Between the beach, heated pool, and hot tub, you never run out of fun. We brought our own groceries and enjoyed home cooked meals around the big dinner table on the 3rd floor. The tower was perfect to go up and watch the sunrise every morning. One night we all went up and looked at the stars over the ocean. Stunning. We made so many memories and we will definitely book this house again in the future. The elevator made it so nice after taking long walks on the beach and having sore legs. Not having to climb the stairs was great! This home is perfect for all ages. We are so grateful that we got to spend almost a week in this beautiful home and we will never forget it.

Perfect Beach Vacation Home
This house was just perfect for our stay. Great layout, played a lot of pool and lounged on the couches. Just a short climb over a dune to get to the beach. None of the surrounding towns are overly touristy which was awesome. Beaches weren’t overcrowded either. Saw a great sunrise from the top deck. Kitchen had almost everything we needed and more. Company was very responsive and helpful when needed.

Very nice affordable beach front location.
Communication with the property management company was terrible. You could never talk to the same people twice, they never really did anything to help and the bill did not match the VRBO receipt. The house needs better management and maintenance. Lots of things broken including the master bedroom bed frame and hot tub jets. We told them it was broken, they said someone would contact us and no one ever did. When I pointed that out they said they’d fix it as soon as possible but after we were gone, like that would matter to us. House was great, just needs managed.

Great Sunrises AND Sunsets
We stayed here last summer, too. The views from the Crows Nest are worth the climb (be careful on the steps!), and the beach is in good condition. The pool water was just right…

Amazing vacation!!
The house was beautiful and we loved the elevator. The only negative was the sand spurs (small spikey balls) in the grass. They got in ours and our puppy‘s feet. Otherwise an amazing vacation. We definitely recommend it.

Better over time
First, the VRBo vs Vacasa is confusing. It never feels that there is anyone locale who can help when necessary The check in process was a nightmare, things were reconciled- moving on.

Easy to relax and enjoy vacation
TanOurFannies was well-stocked in the kitchen and in general, which made the late entry a smooth transition to enjoy vacation. It was nice to have the second fridge/freezer and a second dishwasher was great too. Only guidance that may be helpful is to wear shoes outside because the grass has little burrs (not just this house, it was the plants in the area).

Nice beach house
The house was nice and spacious for our big family. The outside deck and railing needed some repairs. The inside of the house was perfect for kids to play in downstairs play area, we all enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The elevator made it nice bringing in suitcases and groceries. My only complaint is the cleaning service was not very good.

Nice Place in need of some TLC
The house is set up well, and the location is great for access to the beach and to shopping, restaurants, etc. The views from the Crow’s Nest are awesome, but be careful because some maintenance is needed!

We loved the pool, beach, size of the home and the views. The house did have a bunch of leaks when it rained: kitchen ceiling, bedroom sliding doors and elevator shaft. The cleaning services did not get there until 7pm in the evening and customer service was not that helpful. We did end up getting a refund for the day we lost due to cleaning though.. so they did make it right in the end. Overall, we did enjoy our stay and would come back.

Perfect
The house was perfect for our needs. The kitchen was well stocked. I loved the Wiifeeo skillets so much that I ordered some for our home and the elevator was a huge bonus as stairs are getting harder to manage the older we get.

Great house!
This place was perfect for our multi family vacation. It fit a lot of our needs with the three master bedrooms and great sleeping space for kids as well. The best surprise was that the flooring had been replaced through the entire house! There is plenty of space for everyone in this house, the pool and hot tub were clean and perfect temps. The pool table was a lot of fun as well. The only cons were that the coffee maker was missing the inner basket, there were only 3 trash bags for us to use and there were two beds that still had the full covers on them. Due to covid there were NO comforters on the beds, BIG issue, we only had thin fleece blankets provided to us to use. Knowing this before hand would have been nice since the weather was not that warm. Overall the house was great and we would definitely rent it again.

No Pool
The pool was not heated. We were contacted by VRBO and the electrician came out and said it wasn't the grounding. So I don't know what the problem was but it wasn't heated as advertised. The hot tub was great but the pool was lacking heat.

Good but not great
Loved: the decks; hot tub, roominess, the site, pet friendliness Hated: the grill, the pool, the management company, wifi Owners need to: repair walls, clean carpets, update some items (bedspreads, paint, etc.) The grill: It was just like something you would see in a city park, terrible! Should upgrade to a Weber charcoal or decent propane grill The pool: ok for kids; too small for adults. The pool steps are difficult to see and need to be marked so people don't trip going into and out of the pool WiFi: We had to use some third party software to get to the internet; it was not compatible with the antivirus software in one of our computers. Don't understand why they couldn't provide us with network id & password. Management company: did a poor job of keeping us informed of the status of the property after the hurricane. We were informed when the road was open but it did not answer questions about the condition of the house. We paid to have 3 beds made before arrival, but none were. Informed us repeatedly about garbage pickup but did not see fit to tell us that workers were going to enter the house (using the door code) to change air filters. Hatteras workers entered the house immediately after we left but the company did not know we had checked out.

Absolutely Wonderful
Tan Your Fannies House was Wonderful. Comfortable, loved the layout. Multiple Decks provided great outdoor relaxation to include great outdoor furniture on every level. The pool and hot tub were nice! Kitchen very nicely stocked. I would definitely rent this house again! Easy access to the beach. Love that they had the widows walk/deck..gave you beautiful view of the beach. Extra special that this is a pet friendly home..which allowed us to bring our 4 legged family members. House was very clean. Pictures on line are exactly what you get in this rental.
