Vitamin Sea

AdamRating, 5 stars8 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 stars3 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 Views, Game Room, Pool/HT & Pet Friendly

KelliRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We loved the house! It was a perfect spot for myself, three children and our pup. Very clean, well-appointed and spacious. The pool and ping pong tables in the basement were a perfect downtime activity. The beach is very short stroll and the restaurants that we could walk to made the location even more ideal. We hope to return soon!

KimberlyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
I had a very enjoyable stay. The cottage was spotless, very clean, beds were comfortable, it was exactly how it is depicted and described. I needed a place to decompress after my dad’s funeral and this was just the place. I traveled with my German Shepherd and we were able to take long walks on the beach right across the street. The host was very responsive to any questions I had and communicated when the place was ready early. Would totally recommend.

Beach front Haven. Just 75 steps to Paradise.

JanhaviRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Our family of four had a great 1-week stay at Superheat Retreat. The home itself is beautifully decorated with all the conveniences and right touches. It is literally steps from the beach (one of the cleanest I have seen) and an easy drive to all local tourist spots. We also used the clubhouse and tennis courts. Plenty of restaurants close by and walkable to Papa Johns to pick up a quick pizza. Overall a great find and would definitely stay here again in the future! Thanks to Gordon and Jan for hosting us!

Sure, here's a draft for your Airbnb review: I had a fantastic stay at this property! The close proximity to the beach and various activities made it the perfect location for a relaxing getaway. I especially enjoyed unwinding in the hot tub at night and cooking meals in the well-equipped kitchen. The house was clean and welcoming, making me feel right at home. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient stay.

KatelynRating, 5 stars10 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.

Sounds Groovy OBX: Waterfront Home w/ Dock

ChadRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This was our first adventure to North Carolina and an adventure it was. Our first Airbnb didnt work out well with us, so late that first night we booked this home. It had been a long day and we were just ready to lay down. The kids were excited when they seen the house. They picked our their rooms and everyone got a boost of energy knowing we made the right decision moving to this house. Its so nice being by the water. My daughter caught lil shrimp in her net and my son tried out the fishing. The host were very responsive with their messaging. The house was clean and had everything labeled which made it nice. The decks to enjoy your views are so nice. I love seeing all the family pictures amd history they have around the home. You cam definitely tell it is a well loved home thats had some precise family times there. Glad we could add some of our own to this property. We had so many hiccups on this trip but finding this listing wasnt one of them. Thank you for the stay.

Waterfront Apartment with Private Beach, Sleeps 7+

KevinRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Like the description, it is a peaceful paradise! Outside has beautiful sunrise, and amazing open water views. We took great photos just form the front yard. Inside has artistic decorations. It is truly a unique property. The three-night stay is just too short for us to enjoy all the amenities and to have enough time to talk with Alan and Nora. Will come back again!

Absolutely perfect spot for a quiet getaway. Went during off-season - the beach was empty and peaceful, there wasn’t a lot of light so you could see the stars, Shelly has a great list of local spots for meals, coffee, etc. I highly recommend spending some peaceful nights away at Beach Haven!

Oceanside Vintage Cottage with Fenced Yard

LizRating, 5 stars1 month ago
My stepfather had this beach cottage built in 1958. My stepsiblings sold it about 2001. Almost 20 years later, Beverly bought it and has tastefully and lovingly restored it while maintaining the original charm. Although I loved the original notty pine walls, they had been painted throughout which made the cottage seem bigger to me. The refigured bathroom has a shower/tub combo. We only had a tiny shower so I enjoyed a soak in the tub after biking the trail to the Wright Brothers Monument. All 5 nights I slept very well. I enjoyed morning coffee in the sunny front porch and cooked in a fully equipped kitchen. I am not being biased when I say I highly recommend Hip Nautique. When you have the option of this cottage in a great location with such a lovely, thoughtful, experienced host ready to help you in any way, why would you stay anywhere else? And, by the way, Andy Griffith showered here.
