Vitamin Sea

AdamRating, 5 stars6 months ago
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!

DeanneRating, 5 stars2 months ago
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!

Ocean view, near beach! Large pool/new hot tub

TerryRating, 5 stars6 months ago
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)

MelissaRating, 5 stars5 months ago
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.

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.

FredRating, 5 stars6 months ago
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

KathyRating, 5 stars6 months ago
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.

Nags Head Oceanfront, Private Beach Access & Pool

HowardRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
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.

EmilyRating, 5 stars3 days ago
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!

KatelynRating, 5 stars9 months ago
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.

New Listing! Ocean Views, Hot Tub, Fully Renovated

Cooper And JulieRating, 5 stars2 days ago
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!

Newly built Coastal Mediterranean Inspired Villa

SamanthaRating, 5 stars5 months ago
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!

Historic Oceanfront Cottage Tucked in the Dunes

SaraRating, 5 stars2 months ago
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.
