Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Roanoke Island

This was our second year at Serene Retreat. It’s just such a wonderful place for young children to enjoy the beach. The fenced in yard is great for their outdoor play. We enjoy cooking in the fabulous kitchen and feasting at the table with a view. Better than any restaurant around! Thank you again.

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!

Great House! Easy Check-in, nice neighborhood, close drive to the beach access, and all the amenities you’ll need. I would recommend this stay.

Perfect for our long weekend stay in the outer banks. The place was private but close to everything, and the property is absolutely beautiful. Loved taking advantage of the bikes available to use. The suite was very clean and exactly as shown in photos.

These people are wonderful people me and my friend had an amazing time staying at there place! The place is exactly like what you see in the pictures. You will have there downstairs room to there house they will be staying in while you are there. It’s very nice that you have a walkway with access to the backyard gate which is where you’ll find your sliding glass door to your room and bathroom. You also have access to the beach bikes and the canoe which is really nice. Me and my friend brought our Blackstone down and cooked with Brad aka Sammy Hagar , lots of cool stories were shared. I had an amazing stay and I would definitely go back in the future. These people are wonderful host and the have all the suggestions of what to do , where to go

We had a fantastic stay here! The home is beautifully decorated and modern, an easy walk to two public beach access points, and easily walkable to a few coffee shops, ice cream, etc. The updated bathrooms felt like a hotel, kitchen was large and well-stocked, and living room was a cozy spot for us all to hang out- perfect size for our family of 4 with two teenagers. We loved being able to bring our pup- most pet-friendly rentals are not this beautiful, so thank you! Finally, Nichole and Fady were super easy to work with and went above and beyond, offering quick suggestions for local services that were needed. We would definitely rent again when back in Nags Head!

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!

thank you for maintaining such a fantastic space. From the moment we entered it felt like home. With the venue being in the 3rd floor you were giving an amazing view far above the reeds of the expansive wetlands. Being so responsive it left me the time & mental bandwidth to spend precious time with my family since I work states away. Hear me clear you will not find a better bnb in the area & should the chance arise for an available stay, you should just to know what a proper professional bnb is like. thank you again for the opportunity & great experience.

Had a great stay in Kill Devil Hills. The place was clean, comfortable, and matched the listing well. Jason and Crystal were excellent hosts—welcoming, respectful, and easy to deal with. They were also understanding and responsive when needed, which made the experience smooth from start to finish. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a solid spot in the area.

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.

This place was exactly what we wanted to celebrate a girls only birthday celebration weekend getaway! Mark was extremely nice and accommodating. He had suggestions for us that were perfect. We will enjoy coming back again!

Wonderful stay in a charming home. I practiced yoga on the back porch over looking the canal while my husband napped after a beautiful motorcycle ride to Hatteras. Close to Wright Brothers Memorial, Duck, beaches, etc. We will be back!

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.

The place was very nice with a great location. Our host was very accommodating and provided ideas every day on things to see and do. Thankfully we were able to stay an extra night which we were contemplating and our host ended up offering. Weird, like she knew what we were thinking 😂. If we go down again and it’s available, we’d rent again.

Dana is a wonderful host! Private, small space that is equipped with all your beach needs! Chairs, bikes, beach tote and towels for two! Dana’s place is super cute- 10 minute bike ride and plenty of beach access as well as if you choose to drive, plenty of parking at this time of the year! Lots of wonderful restaurants! Highly recommended The tale of the Whale for a nice dinner! Many landmarks including the Jockey Ridge park with spectacular views. Don’t overlook this slice of heaven! We will be back!

Had a great time! The host was very friendly and helpful. The place was perfect for a small peaceful place to return to at the end of the day after going to the beach and exploring the restaurants within OBX.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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!

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.

Thank you Meredith .. such a blessing! My family had a great time and loved your place. We highly recommend staying here. Blessings to you :)

Diane's place was just what we were looking for. Great view of the Sound and just a short walk to the ocean! The sunsets were beautiful with a great view from the balcony. Would definitely stay here again
