Six of us stayed in a two bedroom, 2 bath condo. Room 207. The one bed and bath had a king bed, the other, unfortunately had a double bed. A queen bed would have been MUCH better for 2 adults. The kids were able to sleep on the pull out sofa. We loved the view of the beach, and we... More

Unit 207 does have both a King bedroom, and Queen bedroom. There is also a Queen size sleep sofa in every condo. None of our condos have double beds... More

Very beautiful condo located right on the beach. Beautiful view of the Atlantic Ocean. Very comfortable, clean and modern condo made us feel as though we were staying in our own home. Very easy check-in and check- out process. We loved our stay so much we are considering investing in one of the Condos. Definitely would recommend a third floor... More

We have stayed four times at FFR and would not stay anywhere else. Condos are very clean with many amenities. We like staying on the 3rd floor where the ocean view is wonderful. FFR is located very conveniently to all of our favorite places. Always a great vacation here...can't wait to come back next year...

Just got back from a week at First Flight. Stayed in unit 211 and it was great. Large balcony with terrific ocean views. Beach and ocean were wonderful. Condos are conveniently located near restaurants, sights, etc. Can't wait to come back.

In one year, we've stayed at FFR three times. We love the location on the beach road,and of course, it's great to be near the Stop N' Shop! We've stayed twice in a one bedroom just the two of us (May 2011 and May 2012) and once with in-laws in a two bedroom (Memorial Day weekend, 2012). Both one bedrooms... More

Each condo unit is individually owned. That said, we at First Flight Rentals stand behind our rentals, and in the rare event there is a cleanliness or maintenance issue, we respond promptly when notified by guests. We strive for the highest level of uniform cleanliness and use only the top third party cleaning professionals on the Outer Banks. We do... More

We picked First Flight Retreat for their flexibility with renting partial weeks or starting your stay on any day. We were tied to frequent flier miles and needed to arrive on a Thursday which was no problem. Our unit was clean, beds comfy, and well stocked. We had a small issue that came up that was addressed promptly by the... More

Stayed here two years ago during off season and came back based on that experience. Units are clean and comfortable but the best part is its on the beach. Everything worked (well, almost...need a new light bulb above the stove). Washer, dryer in the unit is a plus. Only "complaint" is the 10:00 am checkout time. Other than that, I... More
