Guest recommendations
"Everything was wonderful! We love this home! This is our second trip to Soupy's Sandcastle. We love how it's right across the street from beach access but also a quick walk or bike ride from great shops and restaurants in Duck. Our group had a great week! Twiddy always communicates with you about getting ready for your vaca, into instructions, trash pick up, leaving, and everything in between. If you have any problem, they always respond soon. We've been using them for over twenty years."
"This is our favorite home we’ve had in OBX yet. We loved the location. We loved the big yard with volley ball and corn hole, and the pool was awesome. The house was VERY well equipped and all of the living space was fantastic."
"The home is spacious, inviting and wonderful"
"Wonderful location that can accommodate a large family gathering! Great pool and yard for games."
"The home was outstanding. Service was superb, communication was clear."
"Great house for our multi-family vacation! The beach access is amazingly close, a very short walk/bike/golf cart ride into town. We loved the multiple living spaces for the kids and adults to split up."
"Location to the beach and town of Duck. Wonderful top level with great tables and seating arrangements. Great pool and hot tub area."
"We loved how close it was to the beach and so close to Scarborough Fair. The pool and hot tub were a fantastic option when the weather wasn't so great or the red flag was out. The house was lovely and spacious, everyone had a good amount of space without feeling like we were on top of each other."
"We had the most wonderful vacation! The house is beautiful and right across the street from the beach! What more could you ask for! We will definitely stay there again!"
"This is a wonderful home that offers every amenity. We have been lucky enough to book it every summer for several years. Great location and the backyard is added fun. The owners seem to add something every year to make it even better!"
We appreciate your kind words. It is our intent to continually improve the amenities and experience based upon input from a variety of sources.
"The home was marvelous for our large family. The design of the house was superb. It allowed large gatherings but also smaller areas for conversations."
Your comments are very much appreciated and are glad you enjoyed your vacation. Thanks for the suggestions as well.
"The house really has everything anyone could want and it is the best location in Duck!"
Thanks for the very kind words and hope you enjoyed your vacation.
"Home was in a great location and had plenty of space for a large group."
"We loved everything…..right across from the beach, the pool and hot tub, three floors so nobody was crowded……it was a delightful week, and we were grateful for good weather too. Thanks for the memories!"
We appreciate your very kind words and are glad you had a memorable vacation!
"The house was decorated nicely. The seating in the kitchen area was great. the bedrooms were a nice size. We could see the ocean from the house and the walk to the ocean was very short. The big refrigerator served us nicely."
Thanks for the kind words and we are glad you enjoyed your vacation.
"Proximity to beach"
"Our family has stayed in this home several times, but the last time before 2021 was in September 2014. We love the location, the beautifully landscaped yard, the pool (which gets afternoon sun), the outdoor bathroom, and the comfortable furnishings. The pergola and additional decking are new since our last stay, as are the upgraded electronics. We highly recommend this home and will definitely stay here again!"
Welcome back and hope to see you again! Thanks for the very kind words and observations. Although multiple factors determine what and how much can get done to improve conditions and conveniences, it is our intent to maintain a high level of guest satisfaction year over year.
"LOVED THE HOUSE! For our family not enough private baths, kitchen well stocked but very disorganized, hard to put away pans after cleanup. The furniture was a bit warn, but to be expected after being used and abused - overall great week, great house!"
Thanks for the honest assessment and kind words. Glad you enjoyed the stay. At the season's outset, the kitchen was organized but after several months of use it apparently became less so. However, we will look into ways to better organize and kept it that way throughout the season. Some furniture upgrades are planned but limited supplies and slow deliveries might temper the degree of implementation.
"The home is well maintained, superb location, spacious with many areas for gathering."
Thanks for the kind words and hope that you enjoyed your week at the beach. One of our goals is to keep a high level of home maintenance to drive a satisfying guest experience.
"Wonderful location and great house!! All the updates were nice! Loved having the volleyball net. We had plenty of room only thing I would say is that the showers needed to be cleaned better."
Thanks for the positive feedback. It is our goal to implement updates, whenever possible, to enable a comfortable and enjoyable stay for our guests. We have passed along your (shower cleaning) concerns to the property management company.
"This was our first time staying at this vacation house and we absolutely loved it. The house is in great condition. It was very clean when we arrived. The yard is beautiful - great pool, hot tub and a nice big yard for the kids to play. The decks and outdoor furniture are very nice. We enjoyed the beautiful ocean views. I noticed a lot of items in the house looked new (rugs, some of the furniture, etc.). The beach access is right across the street which is great. We usually stay further north where the beaches are less crowded, so that was the only negative I can think of. It wasn't a problem though, we just made sure to get down to the beach with our chairs and umbrellas early each a.m. to make sure we had a spot. We loved being able to walk into Duck to shops and restaurants. Kitchen is also well stocked, we cooked many large family meals while we were here. We brought down our own crockpot but didn't need to, we found 2 in the kitchen!"
Meghan-thanks for your comments and glad you had an enjoyable time at the house/beach. We appreciate your insightful/positive comments and will incorporate your helpful suggestions into the next round of upgrades scheduled for the 2022 season. Hope to see you next year!
"Great house. Recent improvements and updating are well done."
"We have stayed at White Sands II several times . We liked the renovations of the pool area adding the decking and pergola. Also glad they replaced the hot tub and pool liner ."
"This home is absolutely amazing!! My family had the best time, the home is so beautiful.. the best part is the yard, having small grandchildren it was perfect for them to run around!!"
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed your time at our house. Hoping to make a few improvements to further enhance our guests experience.
"White Sands II was perfect for our gathering of 3 families. First, the location is so convenient -- it's across the street from the beach path, which made it very easy to go back and forth and to bring all of our stuff to the beach. It's proximity to downtown Duck was also great, so we could walk/ride bikes to the restaurants and shops (our teenagers loved this freedom). The house itself is very spacious, clean and had everything we needed. Lastly, the outdoor space was nice -- the pool is a good size, the lounge chairs were nice, and the pergola provided a lot of shade to escape from the sun. There's also a grassy area for lawn games. We would definitely rent this home again. Thank you!"
"This beach house has everything going for it: proximity to the ocean, a pool and hot tub, plenty of room, spacious kitchen with two dishwashers and enough bathrooms. We love it and hope to return for a fourth season next year!"
