Welcome to “Ocean Breeze”, our 3-story oceanfront home that delivers the full meaning of vacation from the moment you step in. With 5 bedrooms and 5-1/2 baths (plus 2 outdoor showers!) – on the Outer Banks - on the beach, “Ocean Breeze” is really the oceanside escape that you have always dreamed of.

We care about you and your stay with us. "We thank them so much for sharing their home with us and feel like they are a part of our family." Jessica P., '22

With sweeping expansive vistas of the Atlantic Ocean and Pamlico Sound, steps from the beach, and a min.’s walk to Rodanthe Pier (passes included!) this is your top pick. The search is over. Plus, we are dog friendly. WOOF!

“Just finished a week at Ocean Breeze and it was spectacular…It really is the best home on the beach” - Christopher W., March ‘23

LIVING SPACES:

Classic Outer Banks architecture means the main floor is the Top floor. Head up the stairs to a handsome coastal-inspired Living room with a gracious sectional and huge fireplace that features a view from every angle!

“The location of the home on the surf side can’t be beat! The photos of the home don’t do it justice… we were blown away by the windows that overlook the ocean. Absolutely striking, you must see it in person!” - Leslie K., April ‘22

You won’t be technologically challenged here either! Part of Ocean Breeze’s broad revamping includes enough technology that you’re covered - even for rainy days!

You can also just relax into the sounds of waves crashing on the shore and relax after a big day of beach fun snuggling up in front of the comfortable fireplace, with glass of wine in hand.

The Living room opens up to a separate Dining area overlooking the ocean, where special memories are meant to be made, and a Kitchen that has its own view, and every luxury you might need for your own Seafood Boil (including a Lobster Pot) or a fresh-brewed cup of coffee to greet the sunrise with.

“To experience a sunrise in this home can only be described as spiritual, and something you will never forget.” - Eddie W., ‘22

The Dining room table can even seat 12 when needed. An additional leaf and 4 very nice padded chairs are stored in the top floor Master closet. Ocean Breeze also provides 2 high chairs and kids’s dishes and silverware so every meal is simple!

Just a note, this is also the ideal spot for a rousing game of Giant-sized Sequence, one of our family’s favorites! There’s plenty of room for everybody to spread out and play – and you won’t miss a wave crash either. The surf is right outside the sliding doors!

The Kitchen is really supplied with tons of sleek kitchen gadgets and all kinds of wares and there’s also an additional Kitchenette, including refrigerator, and microwave on the first floor, so it’s always simple to feed a big group or fulfill all your culinary desires.

You literally step outside and you’re on the beach.” - Peter R., July ‘21

There’s nothing rather like taking a break from the ocean with a soak in privacy in the lattice-surrounded hot tub while appreciating the impressive Outer Bank breezes. After a rejuvenating dip, rinse off (in hot OR cold water) in the home’s private outdoor shower.

Rental home tips and tricks:

Sticking to your rental budget:

• In the Hatteras area, The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• Booking in Fall or Spring is a good way to save on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Some property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides contain offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Choose your vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Spiritual Sunrises and Glorious Sunsets, right on the Beach, dogs welcome! has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is normally available on booking websites. If not, reach out to the property owner before reserving the property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a property that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a particular Hatteras attraction you are crazy about, browse rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.

Tips for a fantastic stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent lots of concerns.
• Keep the property locked while you are out! Don't let burglars ruin your holiday.
• Upon check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected everything. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to propel future reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your review find their best vacation rental. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
