Ritzin' It - Beach side,Hot tub,Easy beach access
Our family had an absolutely fantastic time at this beach house! The location was perfect, near the beach, and the house itself was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. We especially appreciated the thoughtful touches and amenities provided, making our vacation truly relaxing and enjoyable. The house was stocked with everything we needed, including chairs, and even a cooler. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals, and we loved the outdoor area with hot tub. We highly recommend this beach house to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation experience. We will definitely be back!

Renovated Oceanfront! 2 Masters, 4 BR's, Hot tub!
We absolutely enjoyed our stay! The view was beautiful and loved that the beach was walkable distance. Would definitely love to come back!

Beech I Told U So! New Build
Our stay at Timothy’s place was excellent. The weather was terrible during our stay due to a tropical storm, but the beautiful house made up for the weather. Timothy has thoroughly thought of every detail in the home. It is beautifully furnished and decorated. It has a great outdoor space. There were plenty of televisions to keep everyone happy given the weather. The hot tub is frequently serviced and clean. It has a very nice outdoor tub as well. The outdoor showers are beautiful and well designed. He has hoses on every level to minimize tracking sand into the house. We felt very relaxed. We would definitely recommend Timothy’s place. Very responsive host. Timothy definitely cares about his property and the comfort of his guests. We would come back and recommend this house.

Ocean Retreat - 1 Block from the Beach
The pictures do not do this place justice! If it way nicer in person and there is so much to do within walking distance! A very family and young child friendly rental!

The Salty Shoebox OBX Oceanfront.
Wonderful views and easy access to the water. Good place with young children. (We had a toddler and a baby as part of our group.) The sitting area in the master suite was a great place to play board games and chat in the evenings without disturbing the little ones sleep. Great deck with sturdy chairs of the correct height to see the ocean over the railing. Lots of restaurants nearby and grocery stores and even a Target less than 2 miles away.

Oceanfront! Private Pool,Views,Elevator,Amenities!
Our stay in Corolla was our first visit to the Outerbanks. It was everything we had hoped for due in part to the great accommodations. We will absolutely be back for another stay.

The Beach House | OceanViews | Shoreline Bliss
It was exactly what I hoped for: very close to the beach, great location for a variety of natural sites , shops and restaurants , separate and private from nearby rentals, a good amount of space that was neither cluttered or too big, everything one would need in a kitchen. I especially liked the well-appointed and common sense decor, a range of games and toys available in drawers and cupboards. The art and sea related objects looked like they were both carefully chosen and represented the life of people who loved the place. I appreciated the availability of a shower downstairs, beach toys, beach towels, two different decks for sitting outside and being able to see the sky and the ocean. Besides being available, responsive and friendly, Katie was on top of everything that was needed and quick to come up with a solution when something needed maintenance. She responded quickly and was thoughtful about solutions. I am hoping to come back next year with my daughter and her family.

You Are My Sunshine -Walk To Beach-Golfing-Hot Tub
Perfect location. A short walk to the beach and Barrier Island Bagels (best on the Banks!) and a short drive to Duck. A nice view of the first green at Seascape Golf Links. Clean and well-styled home. And best of all—the jacuzzi was ready for a dip as soon as we arrived! Would stay again.

Brand New Construction - 525' to the Beach Access
We had the most amazing stay! Rebecca was extremely communicative and made sure we knew everything we needed to! The place looked exactly as pictures and was very clean. It was a short walk to the beach (about 5 minutes) and the private pool was so nice to come back to! We would absolutely stay at one of Rebecca’s houses again!

Walk to Beach+Pool+Play set+Ocean Views from Deck
Beth Ann's house layout was great for our two families - the first and second floor are entirely standalone units with their own kitchen, front door and back door to the pool. We had privacy and were then all able to gather on the second floor to hang out. It's a 5 minute walk to a beautiful beach. The gas fireplace was a nice touch when it was chilly during our stay.

Special Sale! NEW Luxury Oceanfront, Heated Pool
The house looked exactly as described & shown in the pictures! It was absolutely beautiful, clean and welcoming. We enjoyed our stay so much! The host was communicative, nice, & made sure we were settled into the house comfortably. Cannot say enough good things about this Air BnB!!

Sound Decision (Waterfront/Tennis/Location)
We absolutely adored this home! It was very peaceful and relaxing. The sound views was the cherry on top, especially the gorgeous sunset every evening. The condo itself was super clean and exceeded our expectations of cleanliness. We appreciated all the little extras the host made available and the bed was comfortable and restful. We cannot wait to come back and make a "Sound Decision" because it was a truly amazing stay! Thanks for hosting us!

Relax, Chill, Breathe-Pool, HT, 3 min walk 2 beach
I would book this place again!! Was very clean and put together and looked just like the pictures. Neighborhood was private and walkable. Beach is less than a 5 minute walk! Highly recommend!!

A House With No Name, Nags Head NC, Outer Banks
Shawn was a good host and answered all my questions very fast and gave us accommodations. The place was very clean, perfect for our family and our dog! We’ll definitely be coming back soon!

Isle Be Back Coastal Cottage
We loved our stay in Hatteras at the Isle Be Back! James was a great host - communicated well - both proactive and responsive. The listing was very consistent with our experience. We utilized the kayaks and one of the bikes, as well as the sand toys. It was wonderful for my kiddos to have an indoor, heated pool (which was very secure to keep them safe when we weren’t swimming). Great location. Very close to a few great beaches and the ferry docks. We would love to come back!

Amazing Oceanfront Setting, Spectacular Views+Pool
What a beautiful home just steps from the ocean. Our group of 8 high school friends had a great time and appreciated the beautiful accommodations. Bedrooms are varied and well-separated for privacy. Lots of doors to access to the rear deck, pool, hot tub, and beach. The kitchen is a gourmet's delight with a great selection of cookware and tableware. We would have appreciated a few more essentials in the kitchen and bathroom.

BEACH ROAD BEE HIVE
The bee hive was great! Perfect location, steps to the beach! It was just as described on the site. Really comfortable space, more than enough room for our group of 4. Great backyard for grilling. Wayne and Lynn were super helpful and gave us great recommendations for restaurants and shops. They were very communicative from start to finish. We would definitely go back!

Ocean View! Beachside of Bypass, Sleeps 10 HOT TUB
The house was exactly as described and more. Richard was very easy to work with and very helpful. Would definitely recommend staying here

A great place to relax and enjoy the ocean!
James was very responsive and quick to make sure our stay was as comfortable as possible. The home is cute and quirky - looks just like the photos! The only thing that was confusing was that sheets and towels are not included in the listing. This was not immediately clear from the listing page. When we were told this a couple days before our trip, James was very accommodating, though, and helped us sort out the issue. All in all a very pleasant experience with a very nice front porch!

Charming OBX Beach Bungalow in Southern Shores
Loved our recent stay at this beach house! The location is great, very close to the beach but felt private and secluded (on a quiet street). We drove to the beach with all our stuff, but could have also walked. No issues with finding parking at the beach, although we were here off-season in September. The house is very comfortable and had everything we needed to relax after a day at the beach (both inside and on the large deck). We grilled, had pizza delivered and drove a short distance to Duck for dinner a few nights. Had one rainy day where we enjoyed sitting in the screened in porch listening to music and playing games. Would recommend Laurie's place to anyone who enjoys charming beach houses (no bland, new build here): full of fun decorations, a spiral staircase and lots of charming personality!

New 2 Bedroom w 5 Beds | Walk to Beach/Pool/Tennis
Great stay! The place was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The host was super friendly and made everything easy.

MillerLight
It was the ideal retreat for our two families, with six children ranging in age from 3 to 13. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. There was ample space for everyone to relax and enjoy themselves. The location was fantastic—just under five minutes’ drive to the beach and local shops, nestled in a peaceful neighborhood surrounded by trees. It felt wonderfully private and serene. Cindy was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We were genuinely disappointed not to have booked for longer and will absolutely be returning in the future.

Cool Beach Cottage.
Great stay! Very clean cottage, very responsive host. Technically walkable to beach but short drive and park at public beach access was much easier with kids. Downstairs bar/games area was super fun! House gets a lot of shade so outdoor sitting/gaming stayed cool (almost too cool for our preseason April stay, but would probably be a nice reprieve on a hot day!) would recommend for a small family or couple. Ceiling fans in every room a nice plus. Ample paper products as well which we appreciated!

Your Modern Sanctuary on Ocracoke
This was our 2nd time staying at Claudia's and it was just as perfect as we remember. Very clean, so much character, and super close to town. We can't wait to come back!
