Enjoy a home right on the beach. You can see the ocean from most rooms. Sit on the deck and see your family play on the beach, simmer in the hot tub overlooking the ocean, walk to fish head pier, minutes from restaurants and grocery stores. This is a great beach get away for couples, solo adventurers, families (with kids), and furry friends (pets). In season (from April thru September) we only do full week Sunday to Sunday rentals.

Tip Sea, close to beach, shabby chic, clean!

Tip Sea is shabby chic, a 4 minute walk to the beach, and in the heart of OBX, yet on a quieter street. It is an older cottage (including two original bathrooms) but is colorful with beachy decor-a true original beach box. The cottage is within walking distance to stores, restaurants, and a new brewery. Everything needed nearby! Older windows we ask to not open. Note: Linens are NOT provided (bed covers are). MP 9.5

Write Off The Beach

4.75 out of 5 average rating, 8 reviews8 months ago

Write Off the Beach was a perfect place for our first visit to the Outer Banks. It was roomy and beautifully decorated. The location was a nice, quiet neighborhood with wide paths for walking and biking, but also very close to restaurants and the beach. Natalie was so patient with all of my questions as we dealt with a tropical storm arriving during our stay. We hope to be back again and actually visit the beach.

Direct Beach Access with Modern Beachy Vibes

5 out of 5 average rating, 8 reviews2 weeks ago

LOVE this place! We have been going to the Outer Banks for decades and this is one of the cutest & cleanest homes I have stayed in! You can’t beat the amazing oceanfront location with private beach access! Host was great & provided clear instructions, all listed amenities, and local recommendations. It was awesome being able to bring my dog along for an additional fee since she also enjoys beach getaways! Will be returning ASAP and recommending to all my friends & family!

We loved our stay here! It was the perfect place for a girls weekend away! The house has everything you need and we appreciated the included amenities. It looks exactly like the pictures! We were close to two public beach accesses and it was a very easy walk- even with our beach things in tow. Susan left a list of recommendations for us to visit and everywhere we went was great! We would absolutely love to stay here again!

Sandcastle By The Sea

4.77 out of 5 average rating, 53 reviews3 weeks ago

This house is beautiful! We saw a few people turn at the end of the road to check out the house. We went for a relaxing trip and it was just that. The location is right on the beach, next to a wildlife refuge so there is an entire stretch of untouched beach for miles!! The sunrises and sunsets were breathtaking. And the stars! The sky was worth it alone.

Enjoyed our time at Blue Sky, the local attractions and shopping. Location was private and close to many things. Enjoyed the half wrap outside deck, brownie points for the velvet hangers for delicate clothing, large living was awesome and all the ceiling fans for air flow! Host, Jenna recommeded local places to visit and had great communication. Blue Sky made our first trip to OBX very enjoyable.

We stayed here with two young kids on thanksgiving week and it was blissful - the house was perfectly set up for (young) kids (think games, a high chair,,..). We could see the sea from the terrace and there was everything needed to cook ourselves a nice meal. Would love to go back.

Beautiful cottage with hot tub and community pool.

4.88 out of 5 average rating, 17 reviews8 months ago

Enjoyed our stay. Loved that we could utilize the community pool since the beach had red flags during our entire stay. The beach access private parking was also a plus. Hot tub was a great way to end the day. Lots of space for family meals at the dinning room table.
