Family-friendly vacation rentals in Hatteras Island

Best of both world's, sound and close to ocean side. AMAZING sunsets. One of our favorite spots was sitting in the dock enjoying the breeze and walking the private beach finding different shells and hermit crabs. The kids obviously really liked the beach, hot tub and pool. We also liked learning how to crab. Oh and skim board! Thank you for sharing your home and for our wonderful memories!

We felt so lucky to have booked this gem! 5 minutes from hatteras where we were fishing. So peaceful and private. And a dog lovers dream house! They went above and beyond to be dog friendly. It’s so hard to find a home our whole family (3 generations) can vacation in and can accommodate our dogs and kennels and this was amazing. They had separate dog covers for couches and towels for after the beach and gates on the decks of each level. Two of the bedrooms had access directly to the deck which was so nice for a quiet exit in the middle of night for early walks. The kitchen has every amenity needed and the decor was beautiful and so fresh and new. It was the perfect fit for our family and we’re already looking ahead to next year. Everyone also mentioned how nice it was to have such a large dining table that we could all enjoy. Lots of games to enjoy at night and the hot tub had an amazing view!

Connie’s place was wonderful! I was blown away by how much was available for us to use in the kitchen! Every utensil, appliance, even basic ingredients I needed and more was available. It was a quick walk to the beach, bikes were available too and we enjoyed them. My toddlers LOVED the hot tub. If you plan to visit and stay here, remember there are NO linens. Only blankets and pillow cases. There are not even hand towels in bathrooms or wash clothes, just the kitchen towels! Pack accordingly. Since we came in the off season, some things were still closed for the year. We found that there was much more to do up in Duck/Nags Head, but the drive up was enjoyable and serene. :) Connie was super accommodating and has impeccable communication. We’d love to stay here again some day.

Ross was friendly and easy to communicate with for our last minute stay. The house is clean and large enough for a big group. There is only one queen size bed and the rest are twin and full size bunk beds which is unique but worked fine for us. The location is convenient and easy to find. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking, could use some newer pans but that's the case with most rentals. We didn't use the hot tub & pool much but they were clean and ready to go.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is hard to beat. Close to everything and easy beach access, surf fishing was also great. Vacasa had great communication and were very responsive about any questions or concerns we did have.

Vacasa was so quick to respond to any questions and made the entire process super easy. Highly recommended. Their properties are well taken care of. This was the best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed at. The details with the decor was amazing. It had everything we needed and more. So much space and it was so comfortable. It is a beautiful house inside and out. I suggest visiting Sandy Bay which is 5 mins up the road for a peaceful beach outing. And then about 15 mins away is the ferry to Ocracoke. The Dancing Turtle coffee shop is a must. It was a great family vacation home.

Everything was great! Oven door fell off when we got there, however they were willing to send someone out to fix it. Before they could we fixed it. Great place to stay!

Superb location for a peaceful end of year holiday vacation. Two level property with far reaching views from the upper level living room. Large open space with ample windows to see the sound. Beautiful sunsets from the windows and the deck facing the sound. Privacy assured from property next door due to design of deck overlooking the sound. Close to beaches for fishing and walking. Dog friendly (bring dog gates as there are no gates on entry steps outside property - all are open - we used two of our own dog gates on two levels to ensure dogs were contained and safe). Lighting in access area is not working. Noticed another review had said the same so maybe replace the bulb as it is a dark entrance area for accessing key code to enter property. Very clean interior. Robust furniture. Mattresses are very firm! Clean linen. Well stocked good sized open plan kitchen. (Food lion is nearest grocery store.) Highly recommend and would personally return again to this vacation property.

Chase’s place is a perfect get away for 2-4 people. It’s soooo close to the beach, just a 3 min walk over the dune. It was quiet and private and had great outdoor space including chairs on the upper deck and picnic table below to toss all the beach stuff when returning from the beach. The beds were comfortable and the air conditioning and wi fi were strong! We were able to walk for coffee at Muffins and Scones and wine & beer at Cork and Bottle, both of which were fantastic! So refreshing to find an air bnb with all the furnishings in an area dominated by rental companies that require you to bring or rent your own linens. Thanks Chase!

When folks say this place is right on the water, they’re not kidding - the water comes right up to a small dune in front of the house. It’s pretty amazing. Lots of room to hang out and enjoy family time while taking in beautiful views - even if it rains, you’re gazing out over the ocean and the sound. Hot tub was awesome - right at eye level with the dunes and the ocean. Sunrises and sunsets are amazing. Lots of deck space on both sides. Seaside was a great host and proactive, giving us a heads up that high winds and rain were coming in so we came down in our jeep instead of a car. They checked on us several times, both by phone and in person. We had a great time!

This was our second time staying with Tami, and once again, everything was wonderful. The home was clean, beautifully decorated, and had all the amenities we needed for a comfortable and easy stay. The furniture was super comfy, and the space had a really welcoming feel. We loved being about to walk to some local restaurants in the evening. Tami is always communicative and helpful, which makes the experience even better. The location is great—easy access to the beach and some solid fishing nearby, too. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

We had a great stay at Out of the Blue. Margot was so responsive and helpful. Perfect location to get to/from beach easily and close to grocery, restaurants. Comfortable home. Would definitely return!

definitely worth the stay. walking distance to anything you need. the beach is right off the driveway! excellent fishing spot as well! (caught a 27" red drum in the surf as well as a whiting and a flounder) the house in itself is well set up to accomodate the family and all of its needs. we had a party of 9 myself my significant other and 7 children ages 20 - 7 . everyone was comfortable and had a blast! will definitely book again!

Great place to stay we were down an evening early for a duck hunt - would also be a nice spot for a getaway or fishing trip!

This is the second time we’ve stayed at this house on our April vacation and it has been great each time. The location is great. The road is quiet enough for kids to bike rides on. There’s a gift shop at the end of the road at pizza/donut place at the end of the road that are open. We’ve stayed with two families each time very comfortably. The weather can be tricky in April so the pool can be heated at the extra cost, which is worth it but it does take a while to get warm enough sometimes if it’s colder outside. We’ve had great beach days each time we’ve traveled in April even if the weather is showing to be in the 60s on our Apple weather app. Several of the businesses are not open yet during April break, but this works well for us because we cook at home and just like to relax on the beach, walk to the pier (walkable fishing pier from the house) , bike ride/run/Swim/use the hot tub. I highly recommended.

Not my first time staying, love the place and location. The only downside was the pool was closed for our stay due to maintenance and checking in was later then expected since they didn’t clean the room yet when we arrived. But otherwise place was awesome and beach was supper close! Would definitely come back next year again!

Beautiful House. Wonderful Location. biggest concern is the tiny cactuses embedded between the blades of grass. The backyards are connected and my sons ball rolled into the neighbors yard. The ball was 15 feet from where he was standing. The neighbors back yard was laced with cactuses. Little baby ones. My son fell to his knees. He was infested. It was a painful experience for him. Be very carful and inspect the grass before letting your kids walk barefoot.

The lockbox code was wrong but we texted the company and they immediately change the code and we got in. I would book this place again

The house was great, had everything needed for a perfect stay. Only thing I was worried about was the structural integrity of the deck steps on the third floor. The stair stringers we’re separating from the nails and would move quite a bit while using so we blocked it off. Also, the concrete under the house by by the front door was dangerously slippery. The concrete was not brushed when it was poured, so it is very slick when wet/covered in sand. If you have young kids running around be very mindful of that.

The instructions were very clear, house was clean and a great location for where we fished. It said pool in the description so we were confused on that but no big deal there as we fished mostly. Everything was clean and it felt cozy. Would definitely book there again or surrounding areas.

The cabana was very clean. We have stayed at several and this one was our favorite by far. The bed was comfortable, the view from the upper deck was great, and we were able to check into our rental hassle free. Vacasa was very accommodating. We hope to rent this cabana again! Awesome experience.

Great stay, very clean and beautiful place

A great home to stay in on the ocean front. Have been renting for many years in OBX this was a great value and location. We had some trouble with door code , I was able to get new working code within 15 minutes at 230am. That is customer service at its best!

This condo was just the perfect post retirement getaway. Great location. Perfect ocean views. The condo itself had all of the needed amenities and the kitchen was nicely equipped. I am already thinking of planning my next visit back to this same condo.
