A Pleasant Stay
Very good condition, very convenient to the beach. It is obvious the owners are very engaged in the property and take great care of it - this is the first house where I actually saw irrigation for the decorative plants, for example. And hey... a sauna! You don't get that level of indulgence everyday.

Relaxing stay in Duck in a house that has it all!
We (wife, pre-school-aged child, and I) stayed in Duck Diamond for a week in September and we loved it so much, our daughter didn't want to leave and now wants to go back. The interior of the property is very well-maintained and cared for by the owner, and it shows. In a nutshell - beautiful property with close beach access in a quiet, pretty neighborhood and plenty of activities in the house. Property was just as shown in pictures, but outdoor areas needed a deeper clean. A few pros and cons for potential renters:
Pros:
- only a few houses down from the beach--about a two minute walk to the steps that take you the beach. BUT, due to the dunes, you have to go up and then down a good amount of steps, so just be warned in terms of hauling beach supplies. I don't think this is specific to this property.
- in a residential neighborhood in Sanderling, so it was a very quiet and exclusive-feeling neighborhood
- while not walking distance to Duck's shops and restaurants, you could bike there and it is halfway between downtown Duck and Corolla, which is nice. Closest grocery is Harris Teeter in Corolla.
- very well-maintained and updated interiors--bathrooms, floors, kitchens, TVs, etc. Just beautiful. daughter loved the little elephant chairs in kids' room.
- Nice outdoor decks with partial ocean views
- Great activities - cornhole, beach umbrellas, beach toys, bikes, etc.
Cons:
- house backs up to the main road (NC 12), and there were a lot of trucks/4x4s. it didn't disturb us, but you can definitely hear.
- outside areas, when inspected immediately upon arrival, were full of spiderwebs and critters, which resulted in them being unusable (especially the screened deck, which we had hoped to use). Property company did send out someone to clean it but that was 4 days into our trip and right before we got cold, rainy weather.
Would definitely recommend, though, and look forward to another visit.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review!
It sounds like your family had a nice time here in Duck. I see that you had mentioned the spiders and webs upon arrival. Unfortunately, we were at the mercy of an outside vendor when it came to addressing this which caused a bit of a delay in addressing the exterior. This 2023 season, the owners took a different approach and had their landscaping company go through all of the decks and remove any spiders and webs between each stay.
With the various home options to pick between on the Outer Banks, we are thankful for families like yours that choose to stay with Beach Realty!

Home at the beach
This was my family’s fourth stay at Duck Diamond, needless to say we are pleased with this house. The kitchen is well equipped and this property is all around clean and well maintained. Bikes and beach equipment is provided. Location is great, only one hundred of my steps to the beach access. Sanderling neighborhoods are the best on the banks. The owner called to see if all was good. We will return.
Manager's Response
Thank you, Robert! Duck Diamond is a beautiful home, glad to hear that it was a perfect fit for your family! See you again soon!

Wonderful Sanderling Home
We always rent in Sanderling and this house is simply wonderful. It is beautiful inside. We made such fun and special memories and amazing dinners here! The bathrooms especially are impeccably updated. We loved having access to the bikes, chairs, and wagon in the garage, which not many homeowners offer for their renters. The hot tub was a nice treat as well. They even have outdoor flower pots that are self-watered. There are also hammocks and swings on the lower deck that the kids just adored. These homeowners care a great deal about their home and it shows. Only issues we had were the freezer in the kitchen would leak onto the kitchen floor here and there, and the mattresses could use updating as well, but absolutely would recommend this house and will return!
Manager's Response
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review from your stay at Duck Diamond! There is nothing more memorable than family time at the beach. I am so happy to see that you and your family had such a wonderful week in this beautiful, well appointed home in Sanderling. The owner takes pride in providing their guests the best experience and I am sure they will love to hear that you had everything you needed. We will be sure to pass your feedback regarding the freezer along to the owner so he can rectify your concerns for future guests. We strive to deliver a great guest experience, and hope that you will continue to vacation with us for many years to come.

Family Beach Trip
We had a great family visit to this home in the Sanderling. I felt like I was in a Restoration Hardware catalog! It has so many nice upgrades and comes equipped with everything! We really didn't need to bring a thing for the beach ... bikes, chairs, umbrellas, wagon, corn hole, games, kites ... There were 3 refrigerators, all of the bathrooms are over the top, a nice area on the second floor for the kids to hang out, a large hot tub, lots of parking, and it was close to the beach and with a water wash for your feet and outdoor shower! It was a perfect house for our family and I know we will come back. We were concerned that we would miss a pool, but we took advantage of the beach and the community pool is within biking distance. It is close to the road but you really don't hear any traffic unless on the back porch and we didn't spend much time there! It is close to Duck but far away from crowds and on a sweet cul de sac! We really enjoyed this house!

Third year in a row!
We love this property. It is impeccably decorated, furnished and supplied. It has everything that you need to have a great family beach vacation. Wonderfully stocked kitchen and garage for beach enjoyment. Will stay again!! Incredibly close to the beach- we enjoyed evening walks with ease and provided wagon helped set us up during the day.

FANTASTIC
We had a wonderful vacation at Balinakill. We had all 4 of our children and there respective finances/friends and we renewed our wedding vows on the beach at sunset on July 4th to celebrate 30 wonderful years. Pastor John from Duck Methodist Church officiated. Love the house decor, layout, location, and appliances. Thank you!

Amazing stay
Balinakill was amazing. The house was very well stocked- the kitchen had everything we could ask for and the garage was stocked with everything you would need for the beach. Furniture and bedding was all super comfortable. The house is beautifully decorated with extra touches like the sauna and wine fridge. Very close to the beach on a quiet road with no traffic. We loved it and can’t wait to go back!

Graduation celebration
The house was amazing n perfect for our group of ten from age 2 to seniors. It was clean, roomy, beautiful, and had absolutely everything one would need for a week at the beach. The three levels of steps kept us all in shape for sure.
The beach itself was disappointing as it was too rough n scary to go near. But the hot tub was lovely instead.
Very happy with this rental

Absolutely Stunning
Exceptional home where everything is thought of to help make your stay even more spectacular ( as if the natural setting isn't enough!) Location is exceptional - shopping, grocery and restaurants are within a 5 min drive in either direction. The neighborhood is quiet and beach access is so convenient. I loved that the owner rang the house to make sure we were settled in and to make sure we wanted for nothing..lovely touch We had such a good time that everyone agreed we wanted to make Belinakill a summer tradition absolutely superb!
Manager's Response
"Absolutely stunning & superb" is the greatest review any owner or realty company could receive from a guest after their vacation at the home. These owners are extremely hands on and always making changes and adding new things so that their guests can experience the most exceptional vacation possible in their home while on vacation. Sanderling stands out as one of the most unique communities on the Outer Banks, with so many amenities for their guests - nature trails, beach accesses, quiet streets and serene atmosphere so that their guests make great memories to share with everyone for many years to come. We look forward to having your family with us for many more vacations at "Balinakill" here on the Outer Banks.

Great Family Rental!!
Balinakill was the perfect home for our family beach week. The layout is very family friendly.....online photos are accurate. All amenities listed were also accurate. The only odd thing our family found was that there was no broom in the home. We actually bought a broom. The home is less than a 5 minute walk to the beach...we used the provided chairs, umbrellas and wagon each day-they were all in pretty good shape, too! We took turns cooking - it was great for all 8 of us to be able to sit down at the table together. I rated the cleanliness a 4 only because the floor still had sand on it. I didn't expect to arrive with sand on the floors. It wasn't too bad, but we all noticed it! If we'd be going back next year, I'd for sure rent this house again. I'd recommend it to any family with kids, grandkids. Even a group of friends. The layout would accomodate most mixtures of groups. We had a wonderful vacation full of fun memories...staying in a nice rental made it even more enjoyable!!

First time to Duck
We had a great week in Duck with cousins ages 1 - 21. There was something for everyone. The beach was great, the house had everything we needed and was the perfect distance from the beach and pool. The highway traffic moves slowly so the bikes are a necessity. For us it was better to be within walking distance to the pool and biking distance to town. The location was ideal!
Manager's Response
Thank you for a wonderful review of our property "Balinakill", I think you have captured this property perfectly in your review as this is one of my favorite homes here in Duck! The owners have put a lot of time and effort into anticipating the wants and needs of their guests and I feel this can be felt throughout the property, you can't beat the location either. We really hope that you will return to this lovely home in the near future, the owners are always adding extras here and there and our repeat renters look forward to the welcome additions.

Fun for the whole family
We had a large party and found that the house was prefect. It was comfortable for all the ages involved. It was really helpful to have all the outdoor stuff provided. We enjoyed the short trip to the beach and other amenities as well.
Manager's Response
Good afternoon Lindsey, Thank you so much for taking the time to let the Owner and Kitty Hawk Rentals know how much you enjoyed your stay Balinakill. This property certainly is very comfortable and has enough room for everyone to find a spot to relax or watch TV. We look forward to having your family stay again with us in 2017 and many seasons to come.

family vacation
Great house and location! Loved having bikes and beach chairs etc. Wonderful hot tub. Very peaceful area, very short walk to beach or ride to the pool on the sound. Only negative was the house was not cleaned as well as it should have been. Found some food pieces and trash on floor and furniture in both sitting rooms. Also many spider webs on the chairs outside on the decks.

A great stay
We had a fantastic week here, this house was perfect for our group. The location of the house to the beach was just what we wanted. When we head back to OBX I hope to rent this house again.

The Perfect Family Getaway!!
We just loved this beautiful home - Balinakill!!! We couldn't have hoped for a better home for our first visit to the Outer Banks. This perfectly located , tastefully decorated, excellent home has all the amenities for everyone in the family.......a beautiful, bright & airy living room for everyone to get together, a gourmet kitchen with every kitchen essential & more complete with cookware, silverware, glassware & dinnerware - a Chef / Cook 's dream kitchen!!! It has five very creatively themed bedrooms.
There is a spacious & relaxing Hot Tub and also a soothing Sauna Room and even a Hammock and a hammock swing. There is even a great selection of books on the bookshelves with a cute little reading bench and of course there is unlimited reading opportunity in the deck chairs on the wrap around deck on the upper level as well as the deck on the middle level. If all this is not enough then there is also a breakfast room/Sun room on the top level alongwith having a big dining room. There is covered parking and showers outside for cleaning up after the trip to the beach.
The additional icing on the cake is that the Beach is within a 2-3 min walking distance and if you are looking for water sports, the Sound is just across the road.
Any photographers should make sure you have your cameras......we got amazing shots of the Sunrise & the Sunset! Also we saw Dolphins in the water if you are at the beach between 6am to 6:30 am.
The town of Duck is very cute & quaint & has a lot of interesting things to do and also there is shopping in the form of Harris Teeter & the Food Lion, though we loved Harris Teeter!!
ALL IN ALL WE HAD A MEMORABLE , MAGNIFICENT & RELAXING WEEK......WE SURE WISHED WE WERE STAYING LONGER AND WILL DEFINITELY WANT TO GO BACK TO BALINAKILL!!!
