Beautiful home!

The house was perfect for our multifamily group! Had plenty of bedrooms and several common areas for us all to congregate in smaller groups, yet the top floor was big enough to accommodate us all for meals together. The pool/hot tub were great for all ages. And so close to the beach!

- Emily , Posted: 08/16/2025

This house had plenty of space for our multifamily group. We used all the common areas to spread out and form smaller groupings. The teenagers loved the hot tub, pool, and walkability to beach and nearby stores. The view of sunsets was beautiful. The pier at the end of the street was relaxing. We even got to see a small wedding! Perfect week away!!

Great time looking forward to next year

This house is absolutely amazing. It has everything you need for a very relaxing vacation. It’s very clean and very well decorated. The quiet elevator is definitely a plus. We really enjoyed our stay and will be returning.

We all loved this house. The weather wasn't that great but we enjoyed our vacation just the same. We plan on renting this house for our 2025 vacation in August. Let me know the first date in August after the first week, and the rental cost with taxes. Looking to hear from you soon.

The Tranquil Turtle was a beautiful house. Everything was excellent! The house was spotlessly clean and all the amenities you could imagine for a fabulous vacation in the OBX.

- Albert F , Posted: 07/14/2024

We had a great time as always. Great location, Great House, Great Friends with awesome weather. Check in/out was easy and everything went as expected. Communication with Kees was easy and made the trip stress free.

Absolute Heaven!
This place is awesome. The house is beautifully furnished and it is equipped with anything and everything you can think of. Makes you feel right at home! Nice views of the pond and golf green. We loved it!!!

- Brenda , Posted: 08/05/2023

Beautiful vacation
We love this house, great location, quiet, house is spacious and kitchen has all you need, including a specific ice maker and two dishwashers. Would recommend this house !

- Cindy J from Philadelphia , Posted: 08/03/2023

Kees was great to work with, easy to get information, quick responses and accurate. Our third year in the same Kees location and they seem to get better each year. Thank you. Chris

- Chris M , Posted: 07/30/2023

This was our first time renting on the sound side and we were extremely happy with Tranquil Turtle in the Village at Nags Head. The home was beautifully decorated and well stocked. House was very clean and the pool was a big hit for everyone. The house was located very close to many different activities and restaurants which was very convenient.

Things to do close by for all

Great home for large groups from teenagers to seniors
Things to do close by for all

- Bonnie , Posted: 06/17/2023

We enjoyed our stay at the tranquil turtle immensely. With it's large and well equipped kitchen we were able to prepare large meals with ease. We watched the sunsets from the hot tub and kids enjoyed the heated pool. It's location in Nags Head was a great home base for our multiple day trips to lighthouses, fishing piers and Parks. We hope to return next year and continue exploring the area.

Perfect Spring Break
Our family stayed at Tranquil Turtle for a Spring Break vacation and we had a fantastic time. Major pros of the property: Plenty of room inside and outside for everyone to enjoy. Short 5-10 minute walk to the beach. We stayed in early April so temperatures were 60-70 degrees but the heated pool and hot tub were amazing if it's still too cool for the beach. Beautiful views of the sound, sunsets, and overlooking the 8th hole of the golf course. Great kitchen with ice machine, 2 dishwashers, and all of the equipment you could possibly need. The elevator was really convenient for getting all the luggage up to the 2nd and 3rd floors. Right next to the Nags Head Golf Links which was a great course. Location was great too with lots of restaurants and a super market near by, and about an hour drive to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, which was a really nice drive. We would 100% stay here again. Only recommendation would be if you have young children bring baby gates because there are a lot of stairs (we found a place to rent them about 1 mile away).

- Adam , Posted: 04/17/2023

Awesome stay
Plentiful of everything. Love the design of the house. Unfortunately the elderly wasn’t able to come upstairs because the elevators weren’t working. So we tried to accommodate them.

- Darlene W. , Posted: 12/01/2022

Great experience. They answered all my questions promptly. Property was what they advertised.

- Alica A , Posted: 11/14/2022

A great place for a family vacation
The Tranquil Turtle was first-rate for our family vacation (4 adults and 4 teens). Lots of living space, everything sparkling clean, well equipped kitchen with everything we needed. The elevator was smooth and simple to use (and essential for one member of our family). The pool was closed (November stay) but we made good use of the hot tub and extensive decks. A minor problem with a door latch was fixed promptly. We have vacationed on the OBX for more than 15 years and this lovely home is one of the very best.

- Lance H. , Posted: 11/14/2022

Great and relaxing.

- Alicia A. , Posted: 10/24/2022

The Tranquil Turtle is a wonderful place to host your family or friends. All furnishings are very nice and up to date. Love the location, quiet, pleasant and safe. We highly recommend staying at the Turtle.

- PAUL B , Posted: 10/16/2022

Our Nags Head OBX Family Vacation
Other than having the barbecue grill on the first floor outside the fence and the kitchen on the third floor everything was perfect

- Rubin M. , Posted: 08/27/2022

Very clean and well maintained.

- Walt G , Posted: 08/21/2022

The ice maker was broke and was replaced the next day. Excellent service and response.
Love it.

- Walt G. , Posted: 08/20/2022

Tranquil Turtle @ OBX.
Outstanding property. Better than advertised . Extremely clean. Kitchen utensils, pots and pans, everything you need to prepare a meal. Two dishwashers and separate ice maker. Property is centrally located for all activities. Would definitely stay there again.

- John W. , Posted: 07/18/2022

yes

- John W , Posted: 07/17/2022

Perfect House
Beautiful house,very spacious, comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen and in a quiet area. Enjoyed our week , would rent again. The pool side was a little slick when wet and could use a railing to get into pool, but beautiful pool area.

- Cindy J from Philadelphia , Posted: 07/13/2022

Perfect house in a perfect location
We have been staying in the Outerbanks for the last 9 years and always have a different home. After staying at Tranquil Turtle we feel we have found the one we are going to return to. Kitchen is perfectly stocked, view is gorgeous, all the beds are very comfortable, the pool door alarms worked well to alert you to run away kids trying to go out without permission, covered porches on every side and level of the house. All the rooms were the perfect size… overall it’s the best home we have stayed at and we highly recommend it. Another perk is the neighborhood is quiet and on a cup de sac leading to a dock on the sound.

- Jackie J. , Posted: 07/02/2022

Fabulous vacation home
Our group of five families was very comfortable during our week's stay at the Tranquil Turtle. It was the perfect "home base" location from which to explore the Outer Banks. And the perfect setting to gather for wonderful meals cooked in the amazing kitchen at the end of busy days. We truly enjoyed every single day there!

- Roxanne B. , Posted: 06/30/2022

Kees did an excellent job with helping answer all our questions about our rental home. It was easy to check in and the house was clean and it the perfect location. The view was unbelievable from any deck and the pool was a huge hit with my 8 year old!
We loved every minute there and didn’t want to leave!

- Theresa , Posted: 06/11/2022

Family Reunion at Nags Head
All adults in family are over age 75. The house was comfortable and perfect size for our 10 guests. We enjoyed our 5 nights.

- David H. , Posted: 05/28/2022

This was a great place to stay in the Outer Banks! We really enjoyed the house, the pool and the hot tub. The staff very communicative (providing tips for eating / visiting) and available for us. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone looking for a stay in the area!

- Philippe , Posted: 05/25/2022

This particular house was amazing! Quiet & comfortable. Great view of the golf course and bay. VERY comfy beds and showers.

- Mike H , Posted: 05/11/2022

First time at Nags Head and hand an extremely awesome time with friends and family. Even though it was a bit cooler than we would like we still enjoyed the pool and the hot tub was the icing on the cake to help relax at the end of the day. Sound system couldn't be more perfect to set the ambiance. Absolutely with out a doubt the best house in the neighborhood. I almost fell over when I saw the elevator.

- Elgadro R , Posted: 05/04/2022

Unit we stayed in was very comfortable and amenities were great. Home was fully equipped to make a perfect vacation. Despite having a rainy day, there was plenty to do at home. Do remember to bring extra towels if needed for pool / beach.

- Rubin S , Posted: 04/19/2022

We had a great stay here. The house was perfect for our large family and toddler. The pool and hot tub were fantastic. All of the bedrooms had ample space and bathroom availability. The kitchen was well stocked with every thing you would need. Elevator would help families with mobility issues.

- Christian , Posted: 04/15/2022

this is everything they said it would be and more. i will be back again ❤

- Brandi , Posted: 10/26/2021

A Family Memorial for our loved one
10 of us gathered for a week to remember and share stories of a loved one. Ages from 2 to 89 and once again fell in love with our home island. The home was comfortable and spacious for us all. The idea of suites for everyone was the highlite with the numerous king size beds. A oerfect location with so much beautiful surrounding this home. An ideal week to play golf and bicycle daily.

- kelley d. , Posted: 10/14/2021

Best one yet! Pictures don’t come close to the beauty, inside and out! Spacious, clean and the pool was wonderful! Close to stores, beach and restaurants!

- Nick , Posted: 10/02/2021

Our stay at the Tranquil Turtle with the Kees company was the absolute BEST! The place was better than the pictures. Everyone in our family group was thoroughly impressed. We which we could have stayed longer, 7 nights was too short!

- Amber , Posted: 09/11/2021

- Alan G , Posted: 09/07/2021

Loved our stay at The Tranquil Turtle
Wonderful accessible house in a quiet neighborhood. This was our first time in many year not staying oceanfront but loved the back deck overlooking the golf course and view of the sound. House was well appointed and comfortable with nice light/views on the main (kitchen/dining/living room)level. Also loved the easy access to the sound pier at the end if the street. Would definitely recommend this one!

- Alan G. , Posted: 09/07/2021

House was great. It was clean and had everything you needed.
I will rent this property again.

Family Vacation 2021
Great house! Even better than the pictures online :-)

- Kimberly R. , Posted: 08/12/2021

This is a beautiful property that is sparkling clean with all the bells and whistles!! Pool, hot tub, grill, spacious multi-level outside deck porches with plentiful seating. The pool level even has a tiki bar! Near the beach and 2 fishing piers that are less than 5 minutes away.

- Vernon , Posted: 06/03/2021

Accurate listing. The house was exactly as advertised, you can trust that Kees will provide everything as listed and expected. Everything was in working order and we were very pleased with our rental. Definitely recommend that others check out The Tranquil Turtle for a golf getaway!

- Shane , Posted: 06/03/2021

The housekeeping staff that came by were so friendly and efficient. I called about two maintenance issues and the response time was great. I was very impressed with the friendly efficient staff for any of my concerns.The house was exactly as it was described on the website. I will definitely use Kees again.

Great house with great views. Very clean. Nice place to vacation and great location.

- Cassandra , Posted: 05/03/2021

The stay was great! We had one small issue was with the heated pool. But it was very easy to communicate with Kees rentals and it was resolved. We had no other problems what so ever. It perfectly accommodated our group of 8. We were very satisfied, would recommend and go back again! Such a beautiful home!

- Allie , Posted: 04/26/2021

Wonderful
The property was very well maintained and beautiful. A great get away!!

- Sherri S. , Posted: 12/08/2020

This house is incredible. Has everything we needed. Very clean! The photos don't do it justice, it is much more spacious than we expected. Would definitely recommend!

- Collin , Posted: 08/24/2020

This place is awesome; great sized house with a ton of space to not get too crowded. The distance from the beach is great too, as it’s just a short walk over. And they have a huge ice maker! Definitely a great place to stay with a group of people, & will be making the trip again.

- Andrew , Posted: 08/17/2020

The home is beautiful and backs to a nice peaceful pond. Be sure to take in a sunset from the top floor deck. It was breathtaking. The hosts were responsive to our questions and quickly corrected an issue with the propane tank. However, the grill was filthy so be prepared to work if you plan to use it.

- Tiffany , Posted: 08/12/2020

Great experience for all 3 families that went! Great value, plenty of space, clean, responsive host, very nice pool, kitchen stocked w cooking supplies.

- Joseph , Posted: 08/08/2020

The Tranquil Turtle was everything we expected and that much more!! Our family had the best time, even during a pandemic, because the house had everything we needed! We had 11 people staying in the house, ranging from a baby to grandparents. There was MORE than enough space for everyone and the kids (ages 4-7) absolutely loved the bunk room! Although we chose to drive to the beach, it was most certainly a walkable distance away and was a great beach! We enjoyed watching the golfers every morning while having our breakfast on the top porch. The house included everything that needed and more, as throughout the week we would find even more treasures, like the board games and playing cards and sound system outside! We are already excited to come back to the Outerbanks (preferably not during a pandemic) and stay in this beautiful house with our ever growing family!

- Lindsey , Posted: 07/18/2020

Beautiful Home and property
We had a fantastic time in Nags Head during the 4th of July weekend. The house was fabulous. We enjoyed all of the homes amenities and great location in Nags Head. We had an awesome time.

- Darryl M. , Posted: 07/17/2020

Fantastic house! Hope to be back again next year!

- Julie , Posted: 07/11/2020

This home is beautiful! Exactly as described. Plenty of room for 14 adults and 3 Pre Teens!
We would definitely come back to this property. Please note there is major construction going on right next door. Since the houses are so close together the noise from the crew can be annoying. But we just closed to blinds on that side of the house and enjoyed the inside since it was off season (Thanksgiving). Also construction right across the street. So needless to say to view from the front was not too impressive. But the back is beautiful!!! The house was equipped with plenty of pots for cooking. But no seasonings or little extras like foil or plastic bags do be sure to bring your own. I cooked an entire Thanksgiving Dinner and was very satisfied with the quantity of pans available. And I am a cook so quality cookware means a lot to me. The beds were extremely comfortable... all of them!!! Everyone said they tested well and didn’t want to get out of the beds. The quality of sheets that were provided were top notch! And that is another thing that my husband and I are particular about is sheet quality. The only thing I would add is a portable fireplace to the master on the Too Floor. The temp in there is only comfortable if you turn the heat on like 78 in the living area. Which is a problem if you have guest in that space then they will be too hot. The house views of the pond and Ocean are good.. not right on the beach.. but you know it’s there. Simply beautiful!! We definitely plan to rent this beautiful home again!!

Great time
We loved our stay!!

- Cindy B. , Posted: 10/17/2019

The getaway
The property was just as in the pictures. It was great! We really enjoyed our stay for our first time visiting the outerbanks. It was close to the beach and the water and fun outside activities. It was a more than enough to accommodate the needs of our group. Will definitely do again!

- Nadine M. , Posted: 10/07/2019

Great choice for a family vacation.

- Barbara , Posted: 09/16/2019

Perfect for our annual Labor Day getaway with friends and family!
Property was perfect for what we were looking for. Plenty of common space but also provided areas for separation between kids and adults when needed. Only thing I would change is having hot tub on ground level next to the pool instead of on the first floor.

- Misty P. , Posted: 09/05/2019

Wedding gathering
What a beautiful home to have family join in my daughters wedding weekend. Beautiful home. Excellent location. Helped make our big event a special one.

- Ronald B. , Posted: 08/18/2019

Beautiful home.
The house was beautiful. My entire family celebrated our mother's 80th birthday. Even with 2 of our 3 days there raining, the house and area were wonderful. The pool is heavenly.

- Christy and Bently H. , Posted: 07/11/2019

Great set up for large families
This home worked well for our family reunion - plenty of space to spread out and give each other room when needed. There isn’t a fence between the house and pool, but they do have alarms on the doors with immediate access to the pool for safety.

- Caroline S. , Posted: 06/24/2019

Our group had an incredible stay at the Tranquil Turtle. All of us were in awe as soon as we stepped in. Each room was beautiful and thoughtfully designed and very spacious. It was so easy to relax wherever one found themselves. The living room was perfect for a Game of Thrones viewing. The kitchen was even more well stocked than we thought and perfect for cooking big group meals(bring extra trash bags and Tupperware though!). The pool and hot tub made our sunny days and evenings the pinnacle of relaxation. The beds were comfortable and plenty, and it was great to have so many bathrooms. We were able to walk to the beach from the house in 10 minutes. The location in Nags Head was also centrally locates for trips to the grocery store, outlets, Bodie Lighthouse, Jockey Ridge State Park, Wright Memorial, Duck boardwalk, and Roanoke. The hosts were always responsive and attentive to our needs. This was a very special vacation, thanks to our hosts, and we are already considering another trip!

- Katie , Posted: 05/08/2019

Gorgeous Getaway!
I can not brag enough about this house! It was so beautiful! The rental staff were amazing. Everyone I spoke to was respectful and pleasant. I was so impressed by everyone. The house had everything we needed to accommodate a group of 12 adults for a relaxing and fun long weekend. We're already talking about our next trip!!

- Dorothy W. , Posted: 11/13/2018

Absolutely Gorgeous Property!
We rented this house for friends and family attending our daughter's wedding. It was perfect for socializing and hosting nearby guests as well. The location is close to many nearby attractions, not to mention the challenging Nags Head Golf Course. This house is well maintained and has high end finishes. We would definitely stay here again!

- lance k. , Posted: 10/30/2018

This property is impeccable!
The owners of this property have done an exquisite job decorating and thinking of everything to have an enjoyable vacation. The pictures don't do it justice. Our trip was wonderful and loved the fact it was not right on the beach so we did not have to contend with sand in the house but close enough to enjoy and when not at the beach, the pool and hot tub are fabulous! Very nice and enjoyable!
