Semi-Oceanfront Beach Cottage I

LisaRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Chase’s place is a perfect get away for 2-4 people. It’s soooo close to the beach, just a 3 min walk over the dune. It was quiet and private and had great outdoor space including chairs on the upper deck and picnic table below to toss all the beach stuff when returning from the beach. The beds were comfortable and the air conditioning and wi fi were strong! We were able to walk for coffee at Muffins and Scones and wine & beer at Cork and Bottle, both of which were fantastic! So refreshing to find an air bnb with all the furnishings in an area dominated by rental companies that require you to bring or rent your own linens. Thanks Chase!

Beach Retreat - Private Studio Apartment

AllyRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Really enjoyed our second stay at Sonny and Mikaila's place this summer! Really a perfect location, close to everything. Great time of year to have the beach to yourself! Enjoyed climbing Currituck Beach Lighthouse and visiting the Wright Brothers Museum and Memorial. Great dinner at Mama Kwan's (as always!) and a great sunset dinner at Miller's Waterfront. Been coming to OBX for over 30 years and it never gets old! Thanks for a great stay, see you next summer! Ally Tequila Sunset, Harpers Ferry WV

Green Door Guest Room at OBX Beach

AmandaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
I stayed here for for a nearby wedding in Duck and the location could not have been more convenient to the venue and the fun downtown Duck area with shopping, restaurants, etc. The size of the apartment was perfect for a few people and very peaceful. We loved the screened in porch. I would strongly recommend this as a great option for an obx stay!

Manteo Beach Box

AprilRating, 5 stars3 months ago
This is my boyfriend and I go to place every year for the beach. This year just like all the previous years was awesome! Seth and Sarah are always super responsive and super friendly. They also gave excellent recommendations for places to go grab food. It’s nice to have somewhere to start especially during the off-season. We will definitely be back! We definitely missed their little doggo Stanley this year. Just know that he is missed by us too! ❤️

Farm Cottage at the beach

KeithRating, 5 stars6 months ago
Dorothy's place was fantastic, a very unique spot and friendly host. Location was great - central in the outer banks for us to get to everything we wanted during the few days we were there, secluded from the highway and felt like we were part of the neighborhood. We took Dorothy up on her offer to show us around the property, our two girls 5 and under really enjoyed the chickens, butterflies, flowers, tractor, honeybees, and frogs! The space had everything we needed to cook some meals in, and plenty of space to feel comfortable on the great furniture they had. We'll be back next time we're in the outer banks!

Great little spot for our lads fishing trip. House is really clean and modern (not corny beach decor) which was appreciated. Wes was friendly and welcoming. Our nephew loved fishing for Pinfish in the yard. Really enjoyed our brief stay. Thanks!

Coastal Chic on the Outer Banks - Tiny Home

ChelseaRating, 5 stars5 months ago
My husband and I cannot say enough about our stay at the Beach Palette!! Their attention to detail and ways they added little things to make our stay comfortable and seamless was truly appreciated. The decor and amenities were very charming and carefully chosen. This property was truly a hidden gem close to a bunch of great restaurants, beach accesses and golf! They also helped us by providing restaurant recommendations which we found a new fav spot! We have already decided we would like to come back next year! Thank you again, Carolina and Brian for a wonderful getaway! :)

The Soundside Studio

CatherineRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Stayed here while photographing wildlife in Alligator River NWR. The guest house was clean and cozy, and the shower water was hot. It was small (as expected with a studio), but it was perfect as our home base for the weekend, when we were mostly away all day. The neighborhood is very quiet, and the property is well-kept. I would absolutely stay here again!

Driftwood Lane

Pete & SharRating, 5 stars4 months ago
Shannon's "Driftwood Lane" was the perfect place for our first OBX visit! The place is clean, bright and very nicely appointed. The bed was very comfortable. The location is central but in a nice, quiet neighborhood. Easy access to beaches in the area and many great restaurants and shops. Communication was great but once we got there, there was no need because the place had everything nicely laid out. Because of the centralized location, we were able to venture out to both the north and south ends of OBX in the short time we were there. And, it is rare to find a place this nice and clean that allows pups! We'll definitely seek this place out for future visits.

Short walk to beach AND sound! New Construction!

GlennRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Lots of OBX beach houses are weatherbeaten and sometimes a bit shabby, this flat is brand new and pristine. Amenities, location, communication all great. Not beachfront but you can see the ocean and beach/sound access are nearby. Frisco is well away from the Nags head crowds. We will be back.

North Duck Bungalow - Short Walk to the Beach!

RachelRating, 5 stars4 days ago
My family and I had a great experience at Michael’s bungalow. We visited off season for a quick getaway and found it so peaceful and beautiful! The beach is a short walk away, perfect for a stroll with the dog and family in tow. The bungalow is clean, well stocked with the essentials, and is styled nicely. We plan to come back in June, so we appreciated this little visit as a preview for what’s to come!

Owl’s Landing in Southern Shores

MikeRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Perfect stay. Very clean and nicely finished house. We loved this location in OBX of anywhere we visited during our stay. Access to the local HOA private beaches is really nice, and a nice benefit we hadn’t considered before booking. Duck town is not too far. The only thing we couldn’t think of is the pictures don’t do the place justice, it’s much nicer in person!

The Caroline Cottage was perfect for our stay. The cottage was spotless and it had everything we needed. Great location and one can walk anywhere they need to go in Manteo. It's close to restaurants and shops. It's also close to the Manteo waterfront, within steps. I would recommend the cottage 100% and I plan to return.
