About this Property

OCEANFRONT Avon - NC Highway 12 - Of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, CASABLANCA is the oceanfront property you want to walk into. A pet-friendly vacation home with a private boardwalk to the beach, this 5-bedroom/5-bath homage to the Academy Award-winning film Casablanca is the ideal place to spend your Outer Banks vacation.

As you pull up to the home from the private driveway that accommodates parking for at least six cars, you see the recreation area with a horseshoe pit and one of two grilles available to guests who stay at CASABLANCA. If you go up the front steps, you enter the first level of the main home which features suites for the stars!

“Round up the usual suspects.”

Each bedroom is named after one of Casablanca’s actors and has its own TV with streaming capability. The “Bogart Suite” and “Bergman Suite” both feature a king bed, en-suite bathroom, and access to a shared deck with porch swing. Next, there’s the “Lorre Suite” which is home to a queen bed. Additionally, bunk beds can be found in the “Rains Suite” and the “Henreid Suite."

This level also features a enormous bathroom with shower and tub, a laundry closet with a washer and dryer, and access to the front porch with a porch swing overlooking the recreation area - ideal for appreciating the sunset.

“Here’s looking at you, kid.”

Upstairs is the great room, or as the homeowners call it: the “Casablanca film set ”. You’ll find a well-outfitted kitchen, three tables, and a breakfast bar with combined seating for 18. There is an entertainment area with setup for streaming, movies, and video games. A modest library of board games, puzzles, DVDs, and beach reads is available for use. Feel complimentary to take a book or leave your book at the end of your stay. A full bathroom is also conveniently located on this level.

The “film set” leads out onto a deck with an ocean view and an overlook of the pool area. It features Adirondack chairs and benches along the side making it a phenomenal place to savor your morning coffee or gather with a cool drink.

On the ground level, there is a tiki bar and seating area with a grille that leads out to the pool. Additional comfortable lounge and deck chairs, a picnic table, and pool lighting make this area a focal point of your stay. The saltwater pool provides additional comfort for swimming and a cozy hot tub will regenerate you after a long day of adventuring on the Outer Banks.

“Oh, there's no hurry. Tonight he'll be at Rick's. Everybody comes to Rick's.”

Separate from the main home with its own private entrance, accessible from both the recreation area and the pool area, is the Pool Hall, lovingly referred to as “Rick’s Café Américain” by the homeowners. This detached space offers a TV, pool table, kitchenette (refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, blender), and a queen-size pullout couch. Themed after the iconic bar in the film, this space provides an exclusive refuge for early birds and nighttime owls alike.

CASABLANCA's access to the beach is a highlight for all visitors. The gate at the back of the pool area leads directly to a private boardwalk, ensuring you’ll be at the beach in no time! Lay down your towel, take in countless vistas of the pristine shoreline, and soak up the best of OBX before returning to CASABLANCA.

The home offers an outdoor shower and fish cleaning station in the recreation area and three different foot washing areas to rinse off the sand before enjoying “Rick’s Café Americain” or the “film set” inside.

CASABLANCA is conveniently located within walking distance to many local eateries, coffee stores, beach equipment units, Avon Pier, and a grocery store. You’ll find Avon to be a amazing community and CASABLANCA's premium location puts you right at its heart. Envisioning your name in the marquee? Cast yourself in Avon’s CASABLANCA by booking today!
