Waterfront 2 bedroom/dock access/2 bikes
I so wish we could give this place more than 5 stars! The location is PERFECT. Peaceful, beautiful, quiet, private, right on the bay and literally 5 minutes from town. Hour and a half or so from Hatteras Ferry, 5 minutes from Kittyhawk beach, 30 mins from Coquina beach. We saw rabbits and sea otters in the front yard, and woke up to birds singing every morning. Spotlessly clean, comfy, great AC, kitchen with everything you could need, along with beach stuff. The photos honestly don’t do it justice, it’s stunning!! Bikes were a nice perk, and hosts were very responsive to any questions we had during our stay. Cannot recommend enough!

Twin Fin Inn • Modern OBX Stay • 2 King Beds
Wonderful hosts and very attentive to our needs. It was such a nice getaway and a perfect place to relax. We especially enjoyed the front porch in the afternoons. Already making plans to get back to Twin Fin asap!

Sea La Vie- 800ft to beach, hot tub, dog friendly!
We had a fantastic stay here! The home is beautifully decorated and modern, an easy walk to two public beach access points, and easily walkable to a few coffee shops, ice cream, etc. The updated bathrooms felt like a hotel, kitchen was large and well-stocked, and living room was a cozy spot for us all to hang out- perfect size for our family of 4 with two teenagers. We loved being able to bring our pup- most pet-friendly rentals are not this beautiful, so thank you! Finally, Nichole and Fady were super easy to work with and went above and beyond, offering quick suggestions for local services that were needed. We would definitely rent again when back in Nags Head!

Soundside Sunshine KDH
Great place for small family or two couples. Space was well decorated and cared for, very clean. Great fenced in backyard.

Lucky You w/ Self-Check-in & Parking
Very nice place to stay! It was in the middle of almost everything that we visited while we were there! Very clean and cosy as well!

The Beach House | OceanViews | Shoreline Bliss
Lovely stay by the beach. Fully equipped and steps away to the beach. It has a unique history which was great to read about. Nicely furnished and has all the necessary amenities for a great beach vacation for the family

Cooper's Suite Charity - SPCA Supporters/Donators
Not many places can be said to be better than you’d hope, but here, Russ, our host, made our stay exactly that. I could explain in detail how through good communication, stocked kitchen, cleanliness, comfortable bed, great pillows, etc. etc. but I’ll leave it at this - just check this place out, you’ll be glad you did.

Sunrise Bliss
We had a great time staying here. It was closely located to everything we could possibly need. It was cozy to stay in on days it rained. The neighborhood was peaceful and safe with a walking trail nearby for our dog. Also, the place was stocked with so many kitchen amenities I was shocked! There was a Nespresso, Keurig, Ninja, frother, etc. We were able to save money and eat in more than we expected with all the kitchen necessities already there!

Beach Breeze Retreat: Chic Coastal Living
Very friendly hosts at a great location!

The Coral Cove | Spacious | Walk to Ocean | Bikes
The house was very pretty and comfortable. It's close to a lot of restaurants and things to do. Katie is great and made checking in and out a breeze.

Happy Ours - 2 min to beach, Soundside, pool pass
Amanda was super accommodating and the place was so cute! It’s a short walk from the beach and close to the pier. Amanda recommended local food spots and the area was great. Enjoyed my stay 😊

Casa de la Luz (The Octagon House, OBX)
Heather and Tom were wonderful hosts and even more wonderful people. From start to finish, they made sure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. Casa de la Luz is truly a gem: immaculately clean, thoughtfully decorated, and full of charm. The neighborhood is peaceful and relaxing, with the beach just a short walk away. When I return to OBX, checking Heather and Tom’s availability will be my first priority.

The East Coast Host - The Modern Dojo
Great place to stay, Artim was a great host with great communication.

Hatterascal Haven
Great place to stay! Easily walkable to Hatteras Village and a public beach access point. If you are wanting access to public bathrooms while enjoying the beach, I recommend doing the 5 min drive to Frisco beach. Plenty of free parking available even when we arrived later in the afternoon. The beach was quiet and not crowded at all. We would definitely come back.

Just Beach’n Awesome apartment w/great sunsets
Earl’s place was perfect for two people—cozy, comfortable, and very clean. The king-size bed was especially comfortable, and the kitchen was thoughtfully stocked with coffee and filtered water. The location was great: walking distance to the sound and a short drive to the beach. Earl was incredibly responsive whenever we had a question or request. We also really appreciated the extras he provided, like beach chairs, an umbrella, and beach cruiser bikes. Stand up shower was small but wouldn’t stop us from staying here again!

Couples Retreat | Soaker Tub + Beach Cruisers
Jonathan place is incredible! He has thought of everything. Very helpful! I asked about a blender and he bought one for the place. The bath is incredible! I will be staying here the next time I’m here! My cousins live in the area and they loved it too.

Dancing Dolphin - Oceanfront Retreat
This place was great! Everything you could possibly want was included in the kitchen, bedrooms, and bathrooms. The beach access was just as it was described. The storage unit had everything you would need to enjoy the beach. We loved our stay here and would highly recommend it.

Scarborough Lane Hideaway - Beach, Pool, Bikes!
The place was exactly what we were looking for. We were in town for the Jazz Fest which was across the street, so it was perfect. The beach was a little bit of a walk, but wasn't the primary reason for our visit so it was fine. The place is really cute and comfortable.

* Walk to Beach * Two Pools * Family Friendly Loft
We had a great stay! The location was perfect—just a short, easy walk to the beach, grocery stores, and great restaurants. One thing we especially loved was that the place had cable TV with all the local channels. It was such a pleasant surprise since so many rentals have switched to streaming only. Perfect for a quick getaway. We really appreciated everything and would definitely stay again!

Atlantic Sunrise | Pool | Stellar Ocean View | MP9
Had a wonderful stay! Perfect for a small family. Katie was very easy to communicate with she answered all my questions in a timely manner. Will definitely be back.

Island View - Waterfront Condo! Fully Updated!
We had a wonderful stay at this beautifully updated and nicely appointed condo on Roanoke Island. The views of the Pamlico Sound were absolutely stunning—especially at sunrise with a cup of coffee in hand. The location was perfect, just a short drive to great restaurants and the Lost Colony outdoor show. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the kitchen was well-stocked with all the basics we needed for cooking. We also loved the spacious dining and living area—perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Highly recommend!

Waterfront Luxury Beach Home-Sunset View,Spa Baths
Thank you Meredith .. such a blessing! My family had a great time and loved your place. We highly recommend staying here. Blessings to you :)

Sound front condo, pool, water access, & sunsets
Diane's place was just what we were looking for. Great view of the Sound and just a short walk to the ocean! The sunsets were beautiful with a great view from the balcony. Would definitely stay here again

Calypso Cay at Cambridge Cove in the Outer Banks
Robert was a great host. Would highly recommend. Great location central to everything the Outer Banks has to offer.
