When looking to rebook in OBX we will be coming back here for sure! Thank you for sharing the beautiful condo.
Kathryn Z. | Jul 2025
This condo is not only beautiful. It’s very functional for a family. Just a short walk to the beach and to the pool, makes for a very full and fun day. The condo itself is beautiful and very clean. Checking in and out was a breeze. The kitchen as well supplied, and we used it often. Highly recommend!

This has to be one of the nicest places we have rented. Everything was clean and top notch. The pool and hot tub were a favorite. Close to the beach. We walked the beach three times a day. Kitchen and pantry were to die for. Highly recommend this home. Our family of 15 had only great memories of this home.

Our stay was so wonderful at this charming home. It’s everything I love about an old school beach cottage! Such cute character and wonderful gathering spaces throughout the home. Amazing decks and outdoor space and an outdoor shower - personal favorite! Close to the beach - easy walk - and close to food and shops! Such a great week. Can’t wait to come back.

FAQ

Yes, our oceanfront rentals offer direct beach access and are located just steps from the water.

Beach chairs, umbrellas, and other beach gear are often provided at many of our oceanfront vacation rentals. However, they are not a standard amenity across all oceanfront homes. We recommend reading the listing description thoroughly and looking at the home's list of amenities.

Many of our oceanfront vacation homes and condos include a private balcony or deck with stunning ocean views, along with water views from many of the rooms. Although that is not standard among all oceanfront rentals. We recommend looking at all the photos and taking a property’s 3D tour to make sure the property offers the amenities you’d like.

Some oceanfront rentals, especially those located on popular beaches, may include an outdoor shower or designated area to rinse off sand. This is not a standard feature across all rentals, but is more common in properties where guests participate in beach and water activities. We recommend reading the listing description thoroughly and looking at the home's list of amenities.
