Direct Beach Access, Clean & Renovated + EZ Cart
this house was extremely convenient for going to the beach, especially considering it came with a cart to haul all your chairs and beach things… such a short walk to the ocean! we loved our stay, nothing we’d change!

Village Oaks Cozy Cottage
It’s one of the best places I have stayed. The place is clean, big and peaceful.

The Salted Sunbeam | Steps to Public Beach | MP3.5
This was my first time ever booking an Airbnb and it did not disappoint. The hosts were very friendly and understanding. The place was clean and felt at home. I had the maximum of people we could have and we had plenty of space in the house! Definitely would book again!

Lucky You w/ Self-Check-in & Parking
I would absolutely stay here again! Monika’s place is cozy and super clean. She was super helpful and responsive, and the location was amazing! It felt like we were close to everything. Five stars!

Urban Boutique Beach House. Hot Tub. EV charger
My family and I had a wonderful time at Sasha’s! She was very responsive and everything she listed was a described! We did bring an umbrella , beach toys, wagon, beach towels but we did not need to at all! She had everything we needed for the perfect beach days! On the days that it rained my kids played air hockey, UNO, and a bunch of others that were on stock! So many to choose from! My girls loved all the smart technology! They thought it was so cool that the mirrors were smart! And the sink faucet was censored! So cool! They loved watching tv under the car port in the mornings since it was so nice and cozy! Ahh so many great things! We will definitely be back to Sasha’s!

Walk to beach - Fire pit - Near dining & shopping
Really enjoyed our stay in the outer banks. Travis was super responsive and helpful and check in/check out was painless. House was well stocked with everything we could need and was very clean on arrival. Coffee shop was less than a block away, which was nice in the morning. Beach was just a few blocks away and the access had a ramp, which was nice for the wagon and stroller. No ramp on the beach side but if you go down one more access to Admiral, there is a flat beach entry. Back yard area with fire pit and grill was great for relaxing. We will definitely be staying here again next time we are in the outer banks.

The Beach House | OceanViews | Shoreline Bliss
Cozy house full of old charm just steps away from the beach. All of the picture on the wall were beautiful and told a story about the house and the area. Everything was clean and neat. We cooked dinner for the majority of our stay, and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. Bathrooms were very clean as well. We would definitely stay here again when we visit in the future!

Cooper's Suite Charity - SPCA Supporters/Donators
Not many places can be said to be better than you’d hope, but here, Russ, our host, made our stay exactly that. I could explain in detail how through good communication, stocked kitchen, cleanliness, comfortable bed, great pillows, etc. etc. but I’ll leave it at this - just check this place out, you’ll be glad you did.

Jockey Ridge State Park + Sound Beach + Hot Tub
Our stay at Erica’s Airbnb exceeded expectations. It was exactly as described—private, spotless, beautifully decorated, and stocked with thoughtful extras. The location was perfect: centrally located to everything, yet tucked away in a peaceful, quiet spot. It had everything we needed and more. Our favorite part was being able to walk right out the door and hike up Jockey’s Ridge to catch the sunset. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this place to anyone vacationing in the area. Thank you, Erica!

Harmony Hut
Harmony Hut is just as described, and the backyard was perfect for my dogs. The host, Mark, is kind, quick to respond, wants his guests to enjoy their stay, and is just a good person in general. If you are looking for a place to stay with pets in the OBX, you’ve found it. Stop hesitating…. You will love it here!!

Casa de la Luz (The Octagon House, OBX)
I was very impressed by this house! Not only was the place immaculate, comfortable and beautifully decorated, the hosts were very friendly and accommodating as well. Not to mention, they left a very thoughtful gift to congratulate us our anniversary. By far the best AirBnB we've stayed. Would return in a heartbeat 💓

Captains Quarters | Coastal Charm | Bikes | MP6
Everything was accurately described and very clean. We enjoyed our stay!

Treetop Beach Suite
Had a great stay at Mark's place! He was friendly and helpful, and the house was perfect for our beach weekend. Mark offered beach chairs, boards, and more that made the trip easy. Quick bike ride or drive to the beach!

The Recovery Room-0.5 Mi to Beach & 0.3 to Sound
The Recovery Room was a perfect getaway for two people. Very clean and well kept private space below a house. Just a short walk to the beach wish a crosswalk to cross 158 just a few blocks down the road. Gia extremely helpful with recommendations and provided all the necessary information for a safe relaxing trip to the Outer Banks

Just Beach’n Awesome apartment w/great sunsets
We had a great time at Earl’s place. Great apartment in a nice neighborhood. We particularly appreciated the bikes to get to the nearby beach. Earl was super responsive and helpful.

Couples Retreat | Soaker Tub + Beach Cruisers
Jonathan place is incredible! He has thought of everything. Very helpful! I asked about a blender and he bought one for the place. The bath is incredible! I will be staying here the next time I’m here! My cousins live in the area and they loved it too.

3 bedroom condo with oceanfront just steps away!
We really enjoyed our stay here as a family with small children. There were only a couple other people at the condominium so the pool was always available and parking was easy. I liked how you get to park underneath the condos so your car stays shaded. The lock code to the stairwell and elevator made us feel secure. There were plenty of nice beach items to use in the storage including wagon, umbrella, and chairs. Each room had plenty of beach towels and bath towels. The walk to the beach was minimal. The only cons were loud vehicles since you are close to the road and one ceiling fan not working in a bedroom but that didn’t bother us! Overall it is a great place and exceeded our expectations!

Dancing Dolphin - Oceanfront Retreat
Beautiful, clean, and conveniently located condo! Loved having coffee on the balcony and being just steps from the beach. Great location, close to restaurants and shops. The host's list of recommended restaurants were spot on. Can’t wait to come back!

Waterfront Gorgeous Beach Home-Sunsets & Spa Bath
Where to even start?! Meredith was awesome to rent from. The pictures were super accurate to the appearance of the rental. The condo was super clean and she thought of everything. We brought our three kids to the OBX and they never once said they were bored with everything she included in her place. The Sound is literally out your back door and has unmatched sunsets. The beach is less that 3 min drive away and she includes a parking pass that allows you to park super close to the access points. The town of Duck is right up the road and is a very walkable town that offers fun local shops and great dining options. Overall it was a great trip and we would highly recommend this condo to anyone.

Scarborough Lane Hideaway - Beach, Pool, Bikes!
The location could not be beat! We loved walking to Scarborough Faire and biking to restaurants or the beach. House was clean and stocked well. We would definitely stay again!

* Walk to Beach * Two Pools * Family Friendly Loft
We had a great stay! The location was perfect—just a short, easy walk to the beach, grocery stores, and great restaurants. One thing we especially loved was that the place had cable TV with all the local channels. It was such a pleasant surprise since so many rentals have switched to streaming only. Perfect for a quick getaway. We really appreciated everything and would definitely stay again!

Atlantic Sunrise | Pool | Stellar Ocean View | MP9
This is our 3rd time staying here! Has a beautiful view, great access to the beach and a nice pool, which is so great to break up the day. We traveled with two adults and two children perfect amount of space. Little dated inside but has everything you need. We come for the location, because it’s so good! As other reviews have said there is a rental above you. We had one night of very late night noise but other than that it was a wonderful stay, we will be coming back!

Island View - Waterfront Condo! Fully Updated!
We had a wonderful stay at this beautifully updated and nicely appointed condo on Roanoke Island. The views of the Pamlico Sound were absolutely stunning—especially at sunrise with a cup of coffee in hand. The location was perfect, just a short drive to great restaurants and the Lost Colony outdoor show. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the kitchen was well-stocked with all the basics we needed for cooking. We also loved the spacious dining and living area—perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Highly recommend!

Soundfront Sunset Retreat
It was great to come back again, it's just a wonderful place to stay. Convenient and quiet location with breathtaking views. Communication with Rachel was seamless and prompt. She was very attentive host. We truly enjoy our time and will definitely use this condo again.
