Waterfront holiday rentals in Cape Hatteras

Our family of 4 (2 adults, an 8 yo, & a 3 yo) stayed here for 4 nights and had an awesome time. The location is fantastic! It's an easy walk to the dunes and the sound, and there's lots of food options within a short drive. Erica's rental was incredibly clean and very comfortable. We cooked a lot of our meals and the kitchen was well equipped. Though the space is attached to the main house, everything felt very private. We would absolutely stay here again!

We had an amazing stay at this cozy Airbnb overlooking the Currituck Sound! The location near the heart of Duck is hard to beat, with easy access to fantastic shops, restaurants, and local coffee shops. The views over the sound are stunning, and the peaceful setting made it a truly relaxing getaway for this time of year. Our host was incredibly helpful and responsive, ensuring we were set for a smooth check-in. 10/10 would recommend!

What a neat little spot! The space was perfect for our family of three. Close to beaches, restaurants, shops, and the ferry. Gracie, her place, and her art gallery next door encapsulate what makes the Outer Banks so welcoming and charming very well. Will 100% be back in the future.

I had an amazing few days at Jayme's place. Everything was exactly as described. I look forward to returning. This may sound like a cliche, but it truly is a hidden gem. The apartment is spacious and welcoming. Perfect for a small family or getaway with a few friends. I was able to visit with my family, while having my own quiet space where I could work in the day and see my kids/grandkids in the afternoons and evenings. Just steps away, you can rent a bike and go anywhere. The area is also very walkable. A wonderful restaurant is also just steps away from the property. Everything is very close, including groceries, restaurants, and things to do. And, of course, there is a very easy short stroll to the beach so no worries about looking for parking :) Jayme is super friendly and helpful. It was a treat to meet her. I don't think I have ever met a host in person. I have been fortunate to have wonderful AirBnB experiences, but this has been one of my best.

Great place to stay! Beautiful and clean, very lovely space.

Landing here made the drive through Nags Head and Kitty Hawk so worthwhile! Waking up from a very comfortable sleep to this amazing view every morning is indescribable:). The loft had everything we needed for our 3 nights there and the location was perfect. Several places are seasonal, so do your homework, but we had no problem finding a good meal:). Plan ahead also if you want to see the horses.

Really enjoyed the condo it was a perfect base camp for a variety of activities in the OBX. There was a well stocked kitchen which was great as we did a lot of home meals. The condo was nicely decorated, and the beds were super comfy! James was easy to contact and communicated back quickly if asked a question. Was a great stay.

We found the apartment to be very comfortable, neat and tidy. We liked the location and the fact that it was away from the noise and traffic of the main road. The apartment fit our needs perfectly. We would certainly come back and stay here on a return visit to the Outer Banks.

Beautiful home and setting- exactly as described. We didn’t have good luck with weather so the hot tub and area under the house were lifesavers. Probably the best stocked Airbnb we’ve stayed in and hosts are very responsive. I will mention that there are a lot of things that aren’t open this time of year, but there was enough for us to eat out a few times. Overall a great stay.

I have one word for this place and it is AMAZING! Everything you see in the pictures is exactly how it is in real life. The view was unbeatable and all of the amenities were top notch. My family and I made so many beautiful memories during our stay. We loved her house so much I extended our trip a day just so we could stay for longer and Elizabeth had no issue letting me stay another night. I truly couldn’t have picked a better place for our vacation this year. No complaints! 10 out of 10! You will NOT regret booking with Elizabeth and staying in her wonderful home!

Very cute little place. At first, we thought the layout was strange but fell in love with it by the end of the trip. Two rooms and a bathroom for the kids and a master suite with stable mid-century layout that I fell in love with by the end of the trip. Loved the amenities and there was enough kayaks for everyone to go out together. We picked this place just for our kids to be about to safely fish and it was perfect for that. At one point the lock broke and there were right over as they live next door. Was a good trip and everything was close. We’d stay here again.

We had a great stay! We visited outer banks for my mother’s birthday and she loved every minute. This home is very close to the Wright Brothers Memorial and all the nice beaches of the outer banks. All of their restaurant/eatery recommendations were spot on. Of note, if you are traveling with dogs, the neighbors on either side of the home have dogs and they are frequently barking. If you want a quick breakfast before heading out for the day, stop at the gas station down the road (TJs) they make a pretty egg and cheese on a biscuit!

I had been looking forward to this trip as an opportunity to make memories with our young adult children and it did not disappoint! The home was very clean, and sunrises from the dock were beautiful. The four bedrooms provided ample space for everyone yet the layout made it cozy and inviting. We enjoyed fishing off of the dock, close proximity to Manteo, and interacting with the friendly neighbors of the four and two-legged varieties. We had an amazing time! We typically never stay at the same home twice when we travel, but we loved our time at ‘Always Sonny’ and hope to return very soon!

Michelle’s cottage was clean and convenient. It was right on the sound with beautiful views and a private dock. The neighborhood was very quiet. Michelle was helpful and responsive and we look forward to staying there again in the future!

Such a great Airbnb, the best we've stayed in so far! We loved having access to the firepit, kayaks and bikes. The house was so clean when we walked in. There was soap in the bathroom and plenty of towels and houseware in the kitchen. It was so comfortable. Evan was so responsive any time I had a question and checked in on us often. Will definitely be staying here again and recommend it to any family.

Beautiful place. JoAnne answered our questions and even followed up to make sure all was well. Big Beautiful dining area. Wonderful backyard for the kids to play. Just beautiful. Thanks so much for allowing us to use your home for our family to make memories.

Very nice clean condo in a great place. Everything went smoothly and we had a very pleasant stay.

Obsessed! How neat to be above the Kitty Hawk Kite shop! A beautiful spot with the most beautiful views!

Our stay was pretty perfect! The views were amazing and the condo was comfortable. Easily accessible, very close to a lot of really great places like Swells’a Brewing brewery, which is a 5 minute walk. Gene was very responsive and helpful, he made the stay a breeze! The condo was so clean and felt like home. We will definitely stay again.

Exactly as expected, pictures say it all! Very clean, easy to communicate with the host, well appointed condo. With 4 kids, it can be tough to find something everyone likes to do, no problem with the recommendations and coupons! Thank you!! We had a wonderful time and love that we could stay right on the beach!! Thank you for everything! Melissa

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!

If we could leave 6 stars we would. The view was so amazing - we spent hours just looking out at the sound. We booked two extra nights and the host was very accommodating. The apartment was so clean and the furnishings were simple and modern. We cannot say enough about this apartment.

Private beach access and parking. We had a roof shell on our car so had to park in a spot that was just a few feet away from our condo. A local neighbor gave us the tip to park there. Quiet, beautiful, and you can hear the ocean from the deck 😍 Thanks John!

The say at ‘Sea Too’ was the most enjoyable, peaceful and relaxing stay I have ever had at Cape Hatteras. Beautiful sunrises, sunsets, and the perfect atmosphere. I really couldn’t have asked for more!
