Holiday rentals with a patio in Southern Shores

5-star all the way! This review could be pages long on all the great things to say about the Sit N' Duck. Both Mary and Larry are kind, friendly, and gracious hosts. We especially liked the very short walk to the ocean, the use of the Blackstone grill, the kitchenette with coffee maker, electric skillet, and refrigerator; the fluffy towels, the outdoor sitting areas, the comfortable bed, and hospitality...great suggestions on things to do and places to eat. Mary and Larry gave us complete privacy, but were available when needed. It was fun to share a few stories as we headed out to the beach. Other great features: parking availability, beach chairs and umbrella, small cooler (we used a lot), kitchen supplies, and absolutely squeaky-clean everything! Mary has thought of all the little details to make a perfect stay. Thank you so much Mary and Larry, can't wait to come back!

My family and I stayed at woods and waves mid May 2025. The landscape and pool looked better in person than online. The apartment was extremely clean and comfortable. The host Christy and Thomas were very friendly and welcoming. They even heated the pool for our little baby since he doesn’t like the cold water. I would absolutely come back I wish we stayed longer than just a weekend.

It was our first time using Airbnb, we went to OBX for my son's 9th birthday with family. The lookout was a perfect stay with our entire family, everyone enjoyed the decor and felt relaxed there. my son really enjoyed the elevator and was surprised to see a house with one in it! Also the elevator was a plus with my elderly grandparents easily getting in to the house. Would definitely like to stay again or spend time at another property.

We had a great time at this place! Very accurate description and faithful to the pictures. Kitchen and bathroom in pristine conditions, clean linens and lots of gadgets to bring to the beach. Those bikes and the V shaped scooter was plus! I highly recommend it!

Tara’s place worked perfectly for our family (two adults, two young kids) and honestly restored my faith in AirBnBs. You can tell she really puts effort into making it an awesome place. It was kid friendly - spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated without being fussy. The appliances are all brand new, the bed and linens are super comfortable, there’s great water pressure in the shower, the kitchen is well stocked, and the washer/dryer was so helpful. It’s super centrally located with a ton to do in the area, and it’s easily walkable to the beach. (Though there’s no real ocean view, if that’s your thing.) It was our first time in the Outer Banks and we’d probably choose a quieter town in the future but if we were to come back to KDH rebooking here would be top of our list.

Sarah was a great host! The place was perfect for my husband and I! So close to the beach as well! We loved everything

I really can't say enough positive about the place and Glen. Great host, fantastic place, perfect location, and he had more amenities than the listing even detailed. This was truly a next-level stay. The fact that it was so close to the beach was a huge plus too. We had one small issue while we were there (not Glen's fault in any way), and he was incredibly fast to respond. He went above and beyond to make our stay truly perfect. I would book with him again without hesitation.

Definitely the best place to stay. We did a short friend’s trip at the last minute and the host was flexible and responsive to a last minute request to stay there. The place is immaculate, cozy and tastefully decorated. It is all on one floor with great accessibility if one has limited mobility. Well thought out design with the right amount of amenities. There is a private front patio for outside meals, games, etc as desired. I highly recommend this place and will plan to stay there anytime I am in the area. The peaceful and quiet setting rejuvenated us all. We all were so grateful we stayed at this place.

Cozy home, close to the beach. We were sad to go. We wanted one more night. There is so much to do!

We had such a great stay. The place had everything we needed, and the location was great- super close to everything but still nice and quiet at night. Definitely recommend staying here!”

Getting to the beach was most important to us, and Matthew's place was perfect for the beach! Quick walk to the beach, and the house included all the necessary beach equipment (wagon, chairs, umbrella, sand toys, etc). It was also very clean and comfortable with a beautiful sunset view off the back deck. Highly recommend. Thanks Matthew!

What a wonderful experience! Beach Daze has it all! You are only about a 2 minute walk to the beach and the house has every beach item you may need… Chairs, beach toys, umbrellas, and more! You also have your own private pool and hot tub which also has so many toys and floaties there for you and the kids to enjoy. Overall the house was clean, inviting, and so comfortable! We’ve stayed here twice now and will do so again in the future! Love beach daze!

We enjoyed a great long weekend here - a lovely place, we enjoyed it a lot. The kids (and we) loved the Arcade room, the golf course as a back yard, the hot tub, and all the well designed and thoughtful details. Emily was super responsive and extremely helpful for tge few questions that we had, and this made our stay even better. Will definitely try to come here again!

Great location and home for our friends with family trip! The pool and backyard was the perfect hangout and the beach was a quick walk away. Very comfortable for 3 families all with kids! Grateful our fur babies could join as well! Travis was very communicative and helpful. Highly recommend this spot!

Gunther's place was a wonderful choice for our family. There were six of us that we needed to fit in the house and at no point did it feel too small or uncomfortable. The location is very central and you can go just about anywhere you want in a matter of minutes. The beach is a matter of a couple minutes away walking and it did not at all feel like a crowded place. The house was exactly as shown in the pictures and they did include all the amenities that were listed. We'll definitely consider this place again the next time we go to OBX.

The home was great and Carrie had everything possible in it to make it feel like home!

Spent a wonderful girl’s trip in this condo and enjoyed every second. Beautiful, clean space, easy beach accesses, and walkable to my favorite restaurants. This was the perfect place to stay to introduce my friends to OBX for the first time. Would absolutely stay again!

The condo was very charming with new appointments and has a beautiful view of the ocean. We enjoyed sunrise each morning and the sound of the waves crashing each night. The kitchen was well equipped and had sufficient space for the two of us. It was also nice to have both a full and half bath as well as a door between the sink area and toilet/shower in the full bath. Having several options for coffee with espresso, drip, and a Keurig was a big plus A few observations we want to share. It would be very tight to fit 6 people in the place but you could comfortably have two couples or a couple with two kids with the second pair on the sleeper sofa. Overall it was a great stay for our anniversary weekend!!!

What a lovely place. We enjoyed three nights of absolute peace and relaxation with an amazing view overlooking the ocean. It felt like an actual home - so comfortable. Mere steps from the beach, which was never very crowded. We were very impressed by how clean and well maintained it was. It looks like it’s been recently renovated, so everything felt very fresh. Nice plush white towels, soft comforters and linens, and the beds were super comfortable. The kitchen had absolutely everything you could need. Paper towels, toilet paper, dish soap and sponge, trash bags, coffee and filters, salt and pepper, cooking oil, hand soap, etc. were provided. We liked all the little touches, such as labeling the light switches and contents of drawers, and posting signs about how to access the Wi-Fi. We’re strongly considering making this a yearly tradition and would absolutely return to this property!

This was an ideal location in Duck, NC. The beach associated with the resort was devine! The surrounding area is mostly single family homes, making the beach very private to the resort. The unit is located away from the pool, so it was very quiet and lovely. The view is not really of water, but it's a great deck to watch sunsets. I would return to this AirBnB again!

Great location within steps to the beautiful Outer Banks beaches. Steve's place is comfortable, stylishly decorated, and so close to the ocean that you can fall asleep to the waves crashing upon the beach at night!

Emily maintained an open line of communication from before checkin through the day of checkout. She even messaged us to ensure everything was perfect during the stay. Her home is clean and organized, and smelled amazing (love the Pura diffusers!) The amenities are exactly as described. Her home is in a quiet cul-de-sac and within walking distance to the beach and several restaurants. She even gives you personalized recommendations of places to eat and things to do. I would highly recommend her place for your next vacation!!

The only thing that wasn’t great, was the limited amount of toilet paper. We needed more than one roll for each bathroom.

Absolutely wonderful condo in Manteo! The space was clean, super comfortable and the location was perfect. Looks exactly as the pictures show, but with an even better view of the water from the patio. The hosts are lovely and very responsive. We went to see The Lost Colony at Fort Raleigh and was able to walk via an easy walking path right outside of the condo. We will 100% stay again and recommend to anyone visiting the area.
