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!

The Coral Cove | Spacious | Walk to Ocean | Bikes
The house was very pretty and comfortable. It's close to a lot of restaurants and things to do. Katie is great and made checking in and out a breeze.

Happy Ours - 2 min to beach, Soundside, pool pass
Amanda was super accommodating and the place was so cute! It’s a short walk from the beach and close to the pier. Amanda recommended local food spots and the area was great. Enjoyed my stay 😊

Treetop Beach Suite
Mark’s place was really great. He greeted us when we got there. He responded very quickly if we had any issues. The house was not far from the beach and we had a blast. We will definitely stay here again when we come again.

Hatterascal Haven
Great place to stay! Easily walkable to Hatteras Village and a public beach access point. If you are wanting access to public bathrooms while enjoying the beach, I recommend doing the 5 min drive to Frisco beach. Plenty of free parking available even when we arrived later in the afternoon. The beach was quiet and not crowded at all. We would definitely come back.

Wise Choice | Kayak | Fire Pit | Grill
My family & I loved how convenient OBX Sharp Stays was to everything we needed. Our hosts were super accommodating, attentive & friendly. The house was everything we could ask for!

Just Beach’n Awesome apartment w/great sunsets
Earl’s place was perfect for two people—cozy, comfortable, and very clean. The king-size bed was especially comfortable, and the kitchen was thoughtfully stocked with coffee and filtered water. The location was great: walking distance to the sound and a short drive to the beach. Earl was incredibly responsive whenever we had a question or request. We also really appreciated the extras he provided, like beach chairs, an umbrella, and beach cruiser bikes. Stand up shower was small but wouldn’t stop us from staying here again!

Live, Love, Laugh By The Beach
This was my first stay through Airbnb and it was a great experience! Monica was a wonderful host. She stayed in contact with us giving us helpful directions for a smooth check in and check out. Very clean, cozy feeling space.
House rentals with beach access

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!

Waterfront 2 bedroom/dock access/2 bikes
I so wish we could give this place more than 5 stars! The location is PERFECT. Peaceful, beautiful, quiet, private, right on the bay and literally 5 minutes from town. Hour and a half or so from Hatteras Ferry, 5 minutes from Kittyhawk beach, 30 mins from Coquina beach. We saw rabbits and sea otters in the front yard, and woke up to birds singing every morning. Spotlessly clean, comfy, great AC, kitchen with everything you could need, along with beach stuff. The photos honestly don’t do it justice, it’s stunning!! Bikes were a nice perk, and hosts were very responsive to any questions we had during our stay. Cannot recommend enough!

Twin Fin Inn • Modern OBX Stay • 2 King Beds
Wonderful hosts and very attentive to our needs. It was such a nice getaway and a perfect place to relax. We especially enjoyed the front porch in the afternoons. Already making plans to get back to Twin Fin asap!

Soundside Sunshine KDH
Great place for small family or two couples. Space was well decorated and cared for, very clean. Great fenced in backyard.

Tiny House on semi-oceanfront lot
Tiny aloha was a magical place. The location was so private it felt like you were on a tropical island. Few steps away from the beach no hassle getting there or worrying about parking.

The Beach House | OceanViews | Shoreline Bliss
Lovely stay by the beach. Fully equipped and steps away to the beach. It has a unique history which was great to read about. Nicely furnished and has all the necessary amenities for a great beach vacation for the family

Coastal Luxury | A Salt Aire Retreat | WalkToSurf
Our family has stayed in Airbnb’s all over the world and this cute house was the most well equipped, comfortable, and vacation ready we have stayed at. I highly recommend both for the responsiveness of the host and the location and comfort of the house. Nothing bad to say about our experience. This house has easy access to the beach, about a three minute walk. The host provided a wagon and beach chairs, and toys for the beach making our stay with teenage girls amazing and easy. We were close to many places to eat, the neighborhood was quiet and safe, and a grocery store was right across the street. I highly recommend this house for a family stay. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. The hostess provided a few essentials that was amazing. We didn’t have to buy. The house was clean and well kept.

Happy Holiday Home! Pet-Friendly, Walk to Beach!
From the outside, the place looks like an average beach house. Upon entering, you see the boho chic beach decor and feel right at home. We enjoyed lounging on the upper deck in the morning with our coffee, hanging out in the hammocks, and swinging on the swings. We have stayed in KDH’s one other time, just a short distance away. We love the area. Kids enjoy the pier. We cooked several meals and had no problem using the oven, microwave or stove. We used the coffee maker daily as well. Jolly Roger is within walking distance so we walked there one morning for breakfast. Target is also walkable if you’ve forgotten items. We walked to the beach daily both morning, afternoon and evening. Lisa was always responsive to my millions of questions. She’s a gem of a host! We enjoyed our stay here so much! We would definitely stay here again!
Condo rentals with beach access

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
This place was great! Everything you could possibly want was included in the kitchen, bedrooms, and bathrooms. The beach access was just as it was described. The storage unit had everything you would need to enjoy the beach. We loved our stay here and would highly recommend it.

Scarborough Lane Hideaway - Beach, Pool, Bikes!
The place was exactly what we were looking for. We were in town for the Jazz Fest which was across the street, so it was perfect. The beach was a little bit of a walk, but wasn't the primary reason for our visit so it was fine. The place is really cute and comfortable.

Turtle Tides - Oceanfront Penthouse Retreat
I booked this location for our 2 year anniversary and it was an incredible stay. The view was perfect and the house was everything we needed for a few days stay. Gene was incredibly kind and even allowed us to check in early which worked out perfectly for us. The listing was just as described and honestly much more head space in the main room than we originally thought. The internet was great which was incredibly useful for our remote work. Couldn't recommend a better stay in the OBX for the price and location.

* 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!

Sunburst Ocean View Condo @ Nags Head Beach
I really appreciated the communication I had with Dave as we definitely walked to the local grill next-door and had an amazing dinner! I thought it was a great location, could see the ocean and sunrises and public access to the beach was just a short walk! It was great. Thanks Dave!

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!

Oceanfront-"Sun-Sational Setting" in heart of Duck
Great stay at the beach. We loved sitting on the deck with coffee! Kitchen was well stocked. Great location to the boardwalk, beach and pool.
