Vitamin Sea
This listing is exactly what you see and is perfect for one or two people. I loved the decor, it was very quiet, and the walk to the beach is 5 minutes on the nose (I timed it). I had a few questions and the hosts were very friendly with a fast response time. I loved the outdoor shower to rinse all the sand off. I would stay again and highly recommend.

Laughing Whales - Not your average rental!
Great dog friendly rental in OBX! Having grass and a small fenced yard for late/early potty breaks was so convenient. Our dog relaxed right away on arrival, immediately getting a drink and dog biscuit from the provided bowls. What a rare treat to find a place so special for our four-legged family members. :-D Everything was very clean and comfortable and cozy. Loved reading in the sunroom. The house was stocked with more than we could possibly imagine needing in terms of food and supplies (so it's a bit cluttered and not a lot of space for your own items, but nothing you cannot work around). As others have said, definitely felt more like HOME than a rental and we truly appreciated that! Thanks for sharing your home and for a lovely getaway!

Easy Breezy beach house on secluded waterfront
Our stay was fantastic. The house was gorgeous and the view of the waves was so stunning. Very clean and comfy. Had all the cooking things we needed and everything else we could need. Will definitely be coming again!

Ocean Views, Game Room, Pool/HT & Pet Friendly
Our stay was perfect. House was so close to the beach, just a short walk. We were centrally located to many activities. Communication was great and the house was very clean and well stocked. We would definitely stay here again.

Ocean view, near beach! Large pool/new hot tub
Second year in a row renting the house, which was very clean on arrival. Everyone enjoyed the outdoor shower, pool, hot tub, etc. Beach access is only two houses down and there is a designated walkway for you to cross. Low tide is great for surfing with 2 sand bars. The main road is busy, but doesn't bother you while enjoying the pool or decks. The house has everything you need for cooking, grilling, playing in the pool and going to the beach. There are plenty of beach chairs, beach toys for kids, a cooler, and beach buggy to carry it all to the beach, which is a small upgrade made by the owners. Staying there two years in a row we have noticed the owners care and have done small upgrades, which is appreciated b/c we have rented houses where you can tell upgrades have not been made in years. Kitty Hawk pier is within walking distance. The pictures represent what you will get in the house and are true. Mary and Andy were great with communication and we look to rent the place again.

Sea Captain's Cottage 3 (Oceanfront Cottage Court)
The cottage was just the right size and loved that it was so close to the beach. It was perfect for the quick getaway that we were doing. The towels and linens were great, but could use some better pillows. Whitney was very responsive and overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Four Winds #1-pets,sleeps5,fooseballcoffeetable
what a beautiful place. the 4 cottages are perfect for a large family gathering while still allowing independence. they cottages are newly renovated and the outdoor showers are must. they have fenced area for your job to play and that is priceless in this day and age. the close proximity to EVERYTHING is amazing and makes for quick trips out. the host were extremely professional and responded quickly. I cannot wait to stay here again.

Beach front Haven. Just 75 steps to Paradise.
Super place to stay. The view was Awesome and the place itself was very clean and inviting. There was nothing they missed . They had thought of everything and our stay was really enjoyable ! The kitchen was very well stocked , for us to cook a great dinner one night to stay away from a storm , and the sunsets were breathtaking. We hope to return.

Private Pool | Oceanview | Hot Tub | 6 BedRoom
Ashley was a GREAT host, very responsive and a caring host. Provided high chair requested, allowed an earlier check-in to help accomodate special needs child and was very concern when access lock was having problems and responsive. Problem was pribably our mittle hands tiuching all the numbers. Pool was extremely clean and as described in pictures and notes. Had family of 17, 8 adults and 9 kids ranging in age from newborn to 13. Bedrooms were good size to accomodate and all suites having own bathroom was wonderful for 5 families.

The Sandy Edge - OBX
Great location- super close to the beach and good restaurants. Having a garage to store our bikes is key for us. The pool was very clean and we even got to join a water aerobics class with the locals - everyone was very welcoming.

*New* Oceanside,Pool,Walk 2 the beach,No Stairs
The place was amazing, private, really close to the beach where you could see the horses Inside you had everything you need The only thing is they didn’t have bath wash and shampoo or conditioners Only dish detergent But besides that the place was equipped with all you need

*Oceanside*Oceanfront Pool*2 Master Bedrooms*
Great spacious house, responsive hosts that seemed eager to fix issues.

Nags Head Oceanfront, Private Beach Access & Pool
We’d planned a Valentine’s couple’s retreat for 3 nights there. Everything went according to plan and was lovely! The large common area provided lots of large group space for us. The bar area was appreciated as was the well stocked kitchen. The bedrooms were nice, some with more amenities than others. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Atlantic Diamond…the beautiful view of the beach was TOPS!

Remodel! Pool. Hot tub. Fire pit. Steps to beach.
The perfect home just a few steps from the beach. Our family of 7 with 2 toddlers had a wonderful time. The amenities were perfect and the overall layout of the house was just what we needed to feel comfortable and at home for our 6 night stay. The furnishings and touches of the space are extremely thoughtful (live plants and decorations) and little kid specific things like a toddler seat, pack and play, and baby gate were a necessity during our stay. The property itself is the perfect base for any and all adventures we set out to do during the day but honestly the best part was how close to the beach it was and all the sand toys that were available for our kids to play with and enjoy. Travis was an extremely responsive host whenever something came up and took care of anything we needed. We really appreciated his open communication. I highly recommend this property to anyone visiting the Outer Banks area, especially if you have a larger group.

OceanFront! Amazing Views! priv pool, pets ok!
We enjoyed our vacation at this home very much. the description was accurate and the house very clean and well organized. We had to reach out to the host a few times and they were extremely responsive in a timely manner. The location of this house is awesome, grocery store and restaurants are just a short drive or walk. We enjoyed the 2nd story hot tub and the beach access was very convenient. The large recreational room on the 1st floor kept the kids entertained!! Overall, we had a fabulous week at this home and it was perfect for our large family.

Sounds Groovy OBX: Waterfront Home w/ Dock
Owners were friendly and helpful and generous. Well-equipped kitchen. Extremely convenient location. Very comfortable house with lots of nooks and sitting areas.

Beach Haven Tiki #5 - Only a few feet to the Ocean
Great place, great value, great stay. Shelly was incredibly accommodating and welcoming. I look forward to staying here again.

Great location. Walk or drive to beach in minutes
We had a great stay. The fenced in back yard was wonderful with our dogs and was a peaceful place to sip our morning coffee.

New Listing! Ocean Views, Hot Tub, Fully Renovated
What a wonderful spot in Kill Devil Hills. Our family enjoyed a wonderfully relaxing trip to the Outer Banks staying at Artim’s beautiful beach home. Artim was so hospitable and kind. This house is beautifully decorated, not cluttered, minimal, and clean. The home is a very quick walk to public access to the beach. The hot tub was a huge hit. Thank you! Would love to visit here again on our next trip. Thank you Artim!

Oceanfront Artist's Retreat in heart of Nags Head
This place is so cute! My wife and I really enjoyed being there. The sound of the ocean is still in my ears!

Newly built Coastal Mediterranean Inspired Villa
Matthew and Janet were the best hosts we have ever had! From communication leading up and during the trip to everything we could have needed being available (including having all of the beach essentials so we didn't have to pack). We have an annual trip with another family and we both have a 4 year old and the location cannot be matched for families! The pool was a great addition for the littlee. We will definitely be back!

Oceanside Vintage Cottage with Fenced Yard
My husband and I enjoyed our stay very much. The house was conveniently located to everything. Short walk to the beach and lots of wonderful restaurants nearby. Beverly was wonderful to work with and always responded quickly. We would definitely stay here again. The perfect little cottage for a small group.

Historic Oceanfront Cottage Tucked in the Dunes
We LOVED this cozy little place the second we walked in. Everything was so warm and inviting, it was exactly the off-season getaway we were looking for. Also, THEE Jimmy Buffett stayed here in 2008! For a beach house, that's basically like winning an Oscar.
