We Loved the Great Location and Being Just a Short Walk From the Beach
We had such a wonderful stay! The house was a great location and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach, so visited several times each day.

An Absolutely Amazing Spot With Plenty of Room, Direct Beach Access, and Accommodating Hosts!
This was an absolutely amazing spot! We were a group of 17 total and everyone had a place to unwind and plenty of room to get together. The boardwalk directly to the beach was unbeatable. Our hosts were responsive and accommodating. We will definitely consider booking when we come back to OBX next year!

The family and I had a wonderful stay. The house was perfect and it was great to have a sturdy wooden walkway all the way to the beach. Jose was a wonderful host!

We really enjoyed how close it was to the beach. The beds were really comfortable, too! The pool was a huge bonus, too. Very comfortable vacation accommodations for a large family with kids.

We had a wonderful time at Jose and Jennifer’s place. The hosts were very responsive. The house is loaded with amenities like beach chairs, bikes, and coffee beans. And it’s an easy walk to the beach.

Super Clean, Close to the Beach, and Perfect for Relaxing
We had a great time. Very short walk to the beach. Great outdoor area with huge porches, hot tub, hammock, and pool. Three minute drive to the grocery store and lots of restaurants. The only very minor complaint we had was there were several items that could be updated or fixed. For example a couple broken beach items, some of the furniture is wobbly or damaged, and you can’t play the Pac-Man game because it doesn’t allow you to move either up or down. Very minor things that did not affect our enjoyment! It was super clean. Very responsive host. We would definitely stay again.
The house was extremely nice and the community was quite and peaceful.

Why they chose this property
We fell in love when we saw The Sea Captain's House...We bought this beach house because we loved the views from all the rooms, specially the top decks. We love spending time as a family together by the water and we are excited to share this home with you.
It’s the perfect place to relax, unwind and enjoy each other’s company. The sunsets are beautiful, the waves are calming and you can watch your kids play in the sand for hours on end. Plus, it’s just a short 78 steps away and nothing to worry about with the little ones, as there are no roads to cross, the path to the beach is right outside our door.
What makes this property unique
The Sea Captain's House was designed with you and your family in mind. We have thought of everything you might need, and not want to pack to bring to the beach.

This coastal home was designed by Jennifer Overton, a licensed architect and designer, with a focus on light, airflow, and seamless indoor-outdoor living. The architecture reflects a modern coastal aesthetic, with intentional design choices that enhance both comfort and oceanfront living
One of our unique benefits is our guest service, attention to detail and fully supported set up at the house so you don't feel like you need anything when you are on vacation. Leave all that to us and you just worry about making sure everyone is smiling!
