Semi Oceanfront/ Pet Friendly/ Hot Tub
This is our second time staying here so that should speak for itself. Great place, great host!

Charming OBX Soundfront Home with Hot Tub & Kayaks
Another fantastic Spring Break at the Best Box! The nicest, cleanest, most relaxing rental we’ve ever found. Didn’t think the property could be any better than it was last year, but the owners have managed to make many creative and thoughtful upgrades. Enjoyed days at the beach, days on the sound, chartered a boat for fishing, ate tons of seafood, and saw the best sunsets right from the deck. Literally took advantage of everything in this house - from crabbing to fishing to baggo to flying kites to playing board games to darts and foosball. Oh and kayaking, relaxing in the hammock, and tubing, too.

PELICANS REST ON CORE SOUND
We had such a wonderful time! The cottage was so peaceful, absolutely beautiful and completely redone! Extremely clean and fully stocked with everything we needed for our stay. It felt just like home right when we walked in the door. There was plenty of room for our family of three. Our 2yr old LOVED the huge yard and dock. The views of the sound from every window are AMAZING!!! The pictures just doesn’t do it justice! The sunrises were breathtaking and the night sky was just as pretty. Ms. Patricia was always so kind and quick to respond. We truly appreciated that! Thank you for allowing us to stay!

Last minute April Opening !
We had a lovely stay at The Grey Pearl. Perfect location-walk to restaurants, etc. We packed bikes and never took the car out once. I really love a dog friendly house!

Family cottage near ocean
Everything was exactly as described! What a great place to stay. Just heads up — if there are people staying in the unit above, you can definitely hear noise, but as long as you go into it expecting that possibility, no problem!

Cape Lookout Cottage on the Sound
This place is serenity. The views and surroundings are breathtaking. The cottage was coziest place that is well suited with necessary kitchen items. I was very impressed with everything that I encountered with this property! Sean was also very responsive and very helpful!

The Hidden Gem - Linen and beach gear included!
House was great! Super clean, great location. Comfortable beds and oversized TVs made it feel like home. 10 out of 10 recommended!

Just Enough! -Canal Front Home, BIKES & KAYAKS
Just Enough was that and so much more. Beautiful area, super porch for viewing the canal, really comfortable house. The kitchen had everything needed for cooking up some great fresh seafood. The seafood shop was just up the road by the way. Restaurants and grocery were all close by. Evenings on the porch were such a super way to relax after beaching, biking and kayaking. Really loved our stay

Waterfront Cottage-Sailor and Piper’s Sandbox
My spouse and I were looking for an unplugged getaway, and wow oh wow - Rhonda's place was it! The ocean front view combined with a cozy, well-loved and thoughtful interior made for a perfect quiet vacation. Rhonda was an incredibly helpful host and offered great recommendations for places to find local seafood and go for walks. This home is a treasure!

Out of the Blue, Great Ocean View!
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!

Charming Beach Cottage - Walk to the Beach!
Amy's home was a great place for our family of 5 adults to gather for Christmas. Each of our adult children had their own room plus there are two gathering places for TV watching and activities. Spacious dining area. Very well equipped kitchen!! Whatever you want to make, Amy has a pan for that!! Easy walking distance to beach and lighthouse. Her beautiful Christmas decorations were a nice touch for the season. We would rent this place again if our travels take us back to OBX.

Only Five Steps From The Beach Access!
Morgan's house is tastefully furnished and full of light. The kitchen is well equipped, beds comfortable, and everything very clean. The beach is very close and was absolutely glorious because we went out of season and although it was sunny and warm there were few people about - only a few locals fishing. The children appreciated all the equipment for building sandcastles. We found some good restaurants open.

Waterman's Bunk House on Oyster Creek
This was a wonderful home base for adventuring in the off-season. It was a short bike ride (and an easy, affordable bike rental from Ride the Wind) into town or to the beach, and I loved being able to put a kayak in at the house.

Family friendly Oceanside cottage
This place is so gorgeous! It’s spacious, bright, beautifully decorated with cozy beachy home vibe. You can spend time on the deck, in the screened porch, the cozy living room or the dinning area with beautiful view. Plenty of lounge furnitures to sit down and relax, plenty of towels, plenty of cooking/dining supplies. It is so well stocked in every way. I also LOVE the location, walkable to the beach, and since there is no light pollution here in the night, the Staring sky is breathtaking. If weather allows, I would strongly recommend to see the sunrise and stars. There is not much night life in this area, but we didn’t mind driving 30 mins to nags head area on the nights we want to hangout late. All in all, we enjoyed our stay a lot, I would stay here again if I come back to this area.

Guest Favorite • Walk to Beach or Sound!
We enjoyed our stay! Everything was great from location, cleanliness and ease of checking in and out. Dylan was a great host and we will return!

Blue Mere-Oceanside-450 ft from Ocean Walkway
Really a great place to stay. Location was great. Everything very clean and everything available. Probably my new best airbnb place to stay.

Quaint 3-bedroom brick cottage w/ cement drive
Great place to stay! Had good communication and clear instructions.

Curlew - Cottage with Beach Access & King Bed!
A group of 6 of us stayed for only one night and we all loved the place. It was super clean, everything seemed new, plenty of towels which was nice. Super easy to get to the beach from the house. Jacquelyn was quick to respond to our questions. Wish we could have stayed longer, would stay there again.
