Family-friendly holiday rentals in Albemarle Sound

The place was perfect. Very well stocked and pet friendly. We saw horses daily by the rental. Very easy access to the beach. Only thing it needs is a sign out by the entrance of the driveway with house #. We came in at night during a storm and it took us a few minutes to find the drive. I definitely recommend.

This home perfectly suited our family for a special mothers day vacation. The spacious layout, especially having 3 bathrooms for each room and having all of the children’s items and activities made for a particularly delightful stay. We really loved the natural feel of the home, the personality of the space, and all of the wood and furniture was great . This home was very clean and well cared for. Love the location as well as we were able to use a golf cart to go to town and walk easily to the beach! Our host was very informative and helpful. Can’t wait to return!

We had a great three night stay, my three adult children and I. The beach was surprisingly almost ours to ourselves. For an older traditional OBX house, it was well updated and very well appointed. The central floor plan is very open. I love it when you can be in the kitchen cooking while talking to everybody in the living area and those around the dinner table at the same time. Awesome view of the ocean off the back deck. We sat in the hot tub and still see the ocean. Im sometimes leary of hot tubs at the beach, a lot of times they are not well maintained. Danielle's was spotless and the water chemistry was perfect and safe. There was absolutely nothing we needed or any place where we needed to go that was not within a 5-minute drive. All of my family are fisherman. if you like to fish, there's not a better place to stay. getting from the house to the beach to surf fish takes less than a minute. we walked up to the OBX Pier several times to fish, probably less than a 5 minute walk.

We love staying at Donald’s Duck! This was our second stay and we think this place is just so cute and cozy. Our favorite place is the beautifully lit pool area. It’s a short walk to the beach. The indoor space is beautiful and clean. Mark is a very responsive and helpful host! We love the proximity to the shops and restaurants.

Loved my stay !!! Beds were super comfy! And the house was super nice with a 10 min walk to the beach !

My family and I loved the house and had a great vacation. Beach access was very close to the house and the hot tub was a great added feature.

This was a perfect place for a large family to stay. The location is perfect as it's walkable to private beach where there is hardly any crowd. There are various restaurants within a mile of this location and everything was available for a great time.

We had the best time here, its exactly like the pictures and the host goes above and beyond with recommendations/ items provided and cleanliness!

We had a great time place is private and super cozy, the location for the price can’t be beat!!

Hands down my favorite stay in the OBX, great location, perfect for my puppy, can walk to the beach, local convenience store/food. Host was amazing gave me great recommendations!

Great house with a huge fenced in backyard. Close to the beaches and nature preserve. Amanda was great.

I had a very enjoyable stay. The cottage was spotless, very clean, beds were comfortable, it was exactly how it is depicted and described. I needed a place to decompress after my dad’s funeral and this was just the place. I traveled with my German Shepherd and we were able to take long walks on the beach right across the street. The host was very responsive to any questions I had and communicated when the place was ready early. Would totally recommend.

First impressions last the longest! What a great experience from start to finish. We couldn’t be more pleased with our stay. There is literally nothing to complain about. It was just as described and Haley was a great host. If you want to feel like you’re welcomed, this wonderful place a try. You won’t be disappointed. Top notch, 5 star experience.

absolutely loved staying here once again. we had a blast seeing the horses, driving the seashore, and fishing the beaches. Definitely plan to come back again when we get the chance.

Perfect location with a short walk to the beach! Also very close to restaurants and sights to see. Alison was very easy to work with and had all the amenities for the perfect beach trip. We were happy to call her place home for a few days!

Loved our visit to the OBX with our dog and baby. Debra’s place was larger than expected and super close to the beach! It was great that she had baby items, umbrella and chairs already provided! She was extremely nice and provided lots of local recommendations.

We had an amazing time. The house was perfect for us. We really enjoyed the pool and short walk to the beach. We could hear the ocean from the master suite. The upstairs deck had view of the water. Everything about our stay was perfect. The area was nice and was quiet and peaceful. We will definitely go back and stay longer next year. Thank you!!!

The place was perfect for us. It’s located in a quiet neighborhood. It’s about ~2 miles from the shops of Duck. The beach is less than five minutes walk—our dog loved it. We had a great time! The hosts were very responsive and check in and check out were a breeze.

George was a wonderful host and the house is in a great location.

This was our second time staying at one of Rebecca and Sean’s VA Beach condos — and the experience did not disappoint! This is just a perfect location, at the very end of the Boardwalk, with a private grassy lawn and outdoor seating just for the condo residents. Lots of restaurants in the surrounding blocks. Our favorite thing is the view — you look right out onto the ocean from the patio, and you can see the beach and the sunrise from the comfortable bed each morning. We spent unhurried hours sitting on the patio in the evenings enjoying the sound of lapping waves and the night sky. This cozy studio was just right for the two of us. Highly recommend. I’ve no doubt we’ll stay there again in the future!

Great location and host. The home was the perfect size for my family and friends.

Thanks, Rick. We had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend!

Great place. For its size and value, it literally has a ton of great features . The theatre room is amazing, especially with having kids. Has a beach volleyball court! The arcade has thousands of games and brought me back 25 years (Pac-Man, Mario, Galaga, Street Fighter, and 1,000’s more). We went when it typically would not be considered swimming weather, however, we had the option to have the pool heated at least a day or so before arriving and it made a huge difference and allowed for my girls and I to swim in early April (and I did jump in the ocean to compare and it was a 25-30 degree difference! Lol). The owner is very quick to respond, has the instructions available prior to arrival, recommendations for food, churches, , and activities. If you don’t mind a 3-5 minute stroll to the beach, it is honestly not that far away. Walmart, Target, Grocery stores, putt putt, dunes, Wings, fishing pier, are very close by. The aquarium was a 20 min drive but was worth it. Fun experience.

We enjoyed our stay at Brad's house. The proximity to the beach with handicap parking was perfect for my sister who is currently disabled. The house was clean and comfortable and we also enjoyed the hot tub and pool.
