- "If you are looking for a quintessential vacation in the Outer Banks, this is the house for you! Located directly on the sound with views for MILES! Wind surfers out your back door. The most beautiful sunsets you will ever see! A hot tub, pool, open living space & bedrooms galore! It was perfect! Thanks for letting us share in the adventure! We will be back!" - "Very nice home, views and location" - "Property was perfect for our trip. Beautiful views of the sound, plenty of space, and right across from a bodega that had everything we needed. The owner was very responsive. The evening we arrive I noticed the hot tub did not work and it was fixed by the next morning. I would say that there were a number of little things that did not work or haven’t been kept up the best, such as a couple of lights, a slow shower drain, etc, but for a beach house, it met my expectations. My group had a fantastic time."

We enjoyed our stay immensely with such close access to the beach in a newly renovated house.

- "This house, with multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, worked out great for our family group. The kitchen/living room/great room level was especially nice; from that level we could see the ocean on one side and Pamlico Sound on the opposite side. The walk to the beach front was not bad--really not much further than the houses closest to the beach. And kids and adults alike loved the private pool. The neighborhood was quiet and the Waves area is less crowded than Nags Head, which we appreciated. Waves has great waves on the ocean, by the way. Be sure to bring your own beach towels and a couple extra kitchen towels (and a maybe a backup bathroom towel in case there are lots of you competing for (small) washer-and-dryer use time down on the lower level of the house)."

- "Located on a private street with vacant lots on either side, this is a quiet spot. Beach is just 2 blocks away, and you can see the ocean between neighboring houses from upper decks. Nice polywood outdoor furniture as opposed to the usual cheap plastic stuff. Pack a basketball and enjoy a driveway pick up game! Inside, bedroom and bathroom set up allows for down time and privacy. Bar, dining area, and sofa seating accommodate a large group. Other great touches for multiple families include 2 outdoor showers, 2 washer/dryers, 2 full refrigerators, 2 dishwashers, and double place settings/flatware. Since I'm in the kitchen cooking a lot, I also loved the surround sound speakers. Beautiful evening views from the upper deck, but also walking distance to Watermen's and a 5 minute drive to Salvo Day Use area - two of our favorite spots for enjoying sunset. If stairs are an issue for anyone in your group. this property may not be ideal (there are lots of them). Otherwise, Wave Safari is a great choice for your next vacation!!"

Cape Hatteras is small and quiet, beautiful beach." - "What a wonderful vacation! Waterman’s was incredible, and Megan was awesome to work with! Even when we got locked out, she was right there to help! So kind and friendly! Already looking to book next year!" - "We came to the Outer Banks for our son's 16th birthday and couldn't have picked a better place to stay. The cabana was exactly as described and very clean.

OCEANVIEW Waves — Sea Isle Shores Ln. — One thing for sure at I’M NOT SHORE is that you’ll never need to search for a spectacular view; the views from the home’s top deck reveal a mesmerizing panorama from sunrise over the ocean to sunset into the sound. As complete as that sounds, it’s how this five-bedroom/four- and one-half bath fills the space and time in between that makes this house a truly wonderful find.
Drive up to the spacious grassy lot on a quiet street and find plenty of parking, some covered. It won’t be long before you settle into a lounge alongside the saltwater pool next to the house and begin that much needed vacation decompression. A six-person hot tub stands ready to further the cause. There’s a charcoal grill here, too, and two outdoor showers to accommodate a post-beach-day rinse off. Just inside on the ground level is a game room featuring a pool table, Smart TV, and a wet bar with a minifridge and sink. Feeling relaxed? Good.
Four of the home’s bedrooms occupy the second level: a master king, a master with two single beds, and another king that shares a hallway bath with a bedroom holding two single beds. Both king rooms have access to a private deck. All the bedrooms feature Smart TVs. The final bedroom, a king, is located on the top level and features a private shower, jetted tub, and a Smart TV. This room provides direct access to the great room, an airy and open space destined to become your family’s go-to gathering spot as you watch cable TV from comfy couches and two ceiling fans lazily circle above. The spacious and fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to make planning and preparing meals an easy delight. Plus, you can look forward to enjoying those meals together at a beautiful, huge live-edge table that seats ten and an eat-at counter that accommodates four more. Step outside to discover a screened-in porch with a picnic table and multiple wraparound decks to enjoy the fresh air, ocean breezes and magnificent stargazing.
Best of all is I’M NOT SHORE’s location — just 250 feet to the ocean beach and easily accessible to the fishing and watersport-friendly waters of Pamlico Sound. The quaint village of Waves offers several restaurants, cafes, and a small market to pick up last-minute groceries. When you are sure I’M NOT SHORE is the one, don’t hesitate to book it!

- "We were impressed with the cleanliness of the home after reading some reviews. The home was in a great location, easy checkin/out process. If you have children I would recommend using the drive on beach or parking at Rodanthe Peir. Will use Surf or Sound again next year!" - "The property was perfect for our large family vacation. There was plenty of space for everyone and we didn't feel like we were crowding each other. The house was just a short walk to the beach which made it super easy with toddlers and kids. The neighborhood felt safe and very family friendly. There were a few restaurants and small grocery stores around that you can walk to but to get to the chain grocery store was about a 20 min drive. The only suggestion I would add would be to provide more trash bags and dish washing pods to guests. Only one was provided for an entire week stay. But other than that we all enjoyed our stay here."

Be among the first to stay at our brand new beach cottage in Salvo, NC and make unforgettable memories in the Outer Banks! Finished in April 2024, this house is a traditional beach box style, with an open floor plan, modern kitchen, and a fresh coastal vibe. Relax in an Adirondack chair on the front porch and watch the kiteboarders, or pair the perfect sunset with a glass of wine. Beach access is a quick walk away, with private access right at the end of our street. After the beach a beautiful outdoor shower awaits you to wash away the sand.
**NEW in 2025!! Fenced in dog area and fully private space underneath the house!Stand up paddle board! 2 children's kayaks! 2 more adult sized bikes (4 total)! Installation of outdoor fans in outdoor spaces! New fire pit area with privacy fence!
The cottage has three bedrooms, and will comfortably sleep 8 people. The master bedroom has a king size bed with on suite bathroom. The second bedroom has a queen bed. The third bedroom has a queen bed and a bunk bed with two twin beds (note that only children should sleep on the top bunk). The queen and bunk rooms share a full bathroom.
Outside: Enjoy lunch or dinner breathing in the salt air! There is a new large gas grill available for guest use under the house, and a large wood picnic table. Afterwards, challenge your friends and family to a game of Cornhole or go for a bike ride for ice cream (right down the street!). Four Adirondack chairs surround a wood burning fire pit in the side yard, perfect for relaxing at home after a long day at the beach.
Extras: Don't worry about lugging the beach stuff! For a more convenient vacation we have the following available for use: 2 kayaks, beach chairs, boogie boards, bikes, and a beach cart! Save room in your car and save money on rentals! A $500 value!
- "We absolutely loved our stay in Salvo! The house is new and recently renovated. It was our first trip to southern OBX and highly recommend staying here. Salvo is a quieter part of OBX, really good for relaxing and getting great beach time. Notes on Salvo/Location: The house is a block away from Waves market, which has a killer breakfast burrito and has a ton of food + pantry items, toiletries, etc. The closest large grocery store is in Avon about 16-20 minutes away, which is where we shopped for big grocery items/meat/seafood etc. We had amazing coffee at Beans & Beads, loved Lisa's Pizzeria, & Neptune's Bar. The house sits just off the main road, and is about a 10-13 minute walk to the beach (it feels fast because it is a straight-shoot down the street). We brought our own beach chairs and umbrella, but it was really nice the house provided extra chairs, beach toys, and a well-functioning cart (necessary to transport everything!). We used the grill a couple times--it was great. The ignition doesn't work on the grill, but we used the long lighter provided by the house to ignite the flames (easy!). The kitchen is huge and has really good storage and is fairly well-stocked. The air conditioning was great--important for the beach! The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were spacious and clean. We loved drinking our coffee on the porch. Christina is a fabulous host--she gave us great recommendations and was incredibly responsive and attentive. Highly recommend!!"

Only wish I'd verified whether there was a stove or oven. There was neither, which presents a problem with very few eateries available. Place is clean and quiet. TV options very limited.

- "We stayed at so right in April 2023, and had the most amazing time!!! The house is gorgeous with plenty of very comfortable beds, couches, arcade (!!!!) and all the essentials in the kitchen. The pool and hot tub were amazing, we paid extra to have the pool heated which was well worth it for the cooler month of April. The house is a very short walk to the beautiful beach. We loved going to Waterman’s restaurant for one of the most beautiful sunsets I have ever seen! The owner and realty company were fantastic leading up to and during the trip. Book today you won’t regret it!"

OCEANFRONT Waves — Sea Vista Dr. — If having your head in the clouds on a sunny beach surrounded by your favorite people sounds like the perfect vacation, then MOTHER OF WAVES is the perfect place to hit pause and let it happen. Perched on the edge of the ocean dunes, this seven-bedroom/six- and one-half bath oceanfront home is an ideal family paradise providing lots of space — both personal and communal — that allows everyone to discover their own comfort zone.
Upon arrival, unload the car into the convenient cargo lift and relax with a first-day dip in the refreshing private pool. Stretch your legs with a stroll along the beach, perhaps catching a pod of dolphins at play. Return to refresh with an outdoor shower and a renewed ambition to cue up a billiards challenge in the ground-level game room featuring a pool table, kitchenette with wet bar and full-size refrigerator, high-top bar and a huge Roku TV. There’s a washer/dryer on this level, too, along with a pyramid bunk (with trundle) room for the kids and a king master bedroom.
Four more bedrooms occupy the second level. Two are king masters with ensuite baths and two additional king bedrooms share a hallway bath. One has a work desk and provides access to the deck and a six-person hot tub where you can enjoy a soothing soak as the day morphs into a starlit night. All of the bedrooms feature Roku TVs.
The third level is a bright, soaring space brilliantly designed to bring everyone together. Here you’ll find a fabulous oceanfront deck with plenty of seating to enjoy your coffee as the sun rises over the horizon in the morning and cocktails as it sets later in the evening. There’s a half-bath, a sunroom, and a well-equipped kitchen that can easily accommodate more than one cook at mealtime. Gather around the eat-at kitchen counter with four stools or the 12-seat dining table for those meals that last well into the night; then move the action to the great room to catch up on your favorite shows on the large Roku TV. If the kids are bored with your choice of programming, there’s a bonus space on the fourth level with another TV, a foosball table, and a pyramid bunk. The seventh bedroom, a king master with a private deck and in-room Whirlpool® tub overlooking the ocean is also located on this level.
MOTHER OF WAVES is dog friendly and up to two furry friends are welcome. It also offers the added amenity of access to the St. Waves community pool and tennis courts and close proximity to the Rodanthe Pier. Don’t let this one get away, book it today.

- "We arrived to find the house not thoroughly cleaned from previous guests. Fridge had jelly smudges on it and trash was found in master bedroom. The front door hinges were completely rusted out not allowing us to use the door. Smoke detectors were inoperable and hanging from the ceilings. Bedrooms were dated and beds very worn and uncomfortable. Master bathroom shower had no hot water. Called realty group with no response. Coackroach found on bedroom floor. Heinous smell in other bathrooms. Only pros to this property is that it's oceanfront and pet friendly. Book at your own risk. Happy to provide pictures of above account."
