Always a great choice

We have stayed in this unit multiple times now and also in a couple of other units in this complex. We keep coming back to A Better Boat. I love that it's right by the entrance to the pool and close to the crosswalk to the beach. Ivy is a great host!

Best Rental We've Ever Had!

Beautiful townhouse, so clean and loaded with everything you would want from kitchen condiments to nice washer and dryer, 3 floors, nice for couples' privacy, easy walk to beach and pool right outside door. Home is soundproof; no noise from pool or adjoining walls. We cooked a lot; Food Lion is close by, kitchen had everything from an air fryer to coffee machines; lots dishes, we used all. I recommend Better Boat and hope to return next year. Kalene O.

A very well presented property with everything catered for; inventory in an abundance in every aspect. Nothing was overlooked.

Great Location

This is a beautiful property. It is only minutes from the beach. A short walk across the street. There is everything a person may need in the kitchen. Everything about it was comfortable and warm. The owner is easy to communicate with and it is exactly how it is listed. There are many stairs because it is 3 levels. It was not a problem for us, but it could be for someone who doesnt like stairs. The pool was very nice. We fully enjoyed this property.

Very clean rental

This is a very well-maintained rental, the cleanest we have ever stayed in. The decor is lovely. Pool was open in early October and warm enough for the children to enjoy. A nice location for accessing Atlantic, EI, Morehead City, and Beaufort. We would stay here again.

Great place

We frequent the area and the complex. First time staying in this unit and everything was great. Only small complaint was that the wall anchors holding the curtain rods above the sliding back doors are coming out of the wall so we had to be very careful when opening and closing the curtains. Overall great place and responsive hosts.

This was our second stay at A Better Boat and hopefully won’t be our last! The house is beautiful, clean, full of extra things you may have forgotten at home, has a great view of the pool, and just steps from the beach! The owner, Ivy, is very communicative and accommodating. We can’t wait to come back next year!

Perfectly cozy spot for our girl's weekend

The condo was perfectly appointed and plenty of space for two of us. I think we would have been fine with a couple more people, but not more than four. I loved that each level had a porch and that we could park right outside. Also, the furniture and feel of the condo was very comfortable. The neighborhood vibe was relaxed and seemed family-oriented. The beach was an easy walk, although I wish there had been more/better restaurants options in the immediate vicinity. Bringing our own sheets was a little unusual and kind of annoying, but I would still totally stay here again!
