Snorkel A Shipwreck...Two Ships Are On The Bottom Just Off The Beach!!
Two Shipwrecks are Just Offshore. Great snorkeling. Walk to the beach in 3 minutes.
3 MINUTE WALK TO THE BEACH!! Our house is named “PADI-SHACK” after the Professional Association of Diving Instructors...the owners are avid scuba divers and we love to share our experiences with our guests. Our guests often like to go out to the shipwreck with us and we enjoy being "tour guides". And, we have MANY friends that we have acquired over the years who are here for large parts of the summer. You'll be welcomed into the "family"....and YOU WILL LOVE IT.
Padi-Shack has three bedrooms, two baths, and a screened in porch just off the kitchen. There are ocean views from the upper decks, and there is a lovely ground level deck with patio furniture and an OBX style swing. The owners don’t live far away and we will do anything we can to make this your best vacation EVER!

We enjoyed the easy walk to the beach, proximity to bagels & donuts, the spiral staircase, the master bed balcony and the popcorn maker. A great house and great value.
Great location! 5 minute walk to the beach and the neighborhood is quiet and safe! My daughter and granddaughters joined me. There was plenty of space and a well equipped kitchen.
My group of 5 stayed for 2 nights and found the place to be very comfortable. Randy was quick to respond whenever we had any questions. We would gladly stay here again.
We had a quick trip to the Outer Banks and this house was perfect. The kids had room to play inside and out. The location was central to everything we wanted to do. Checkin was easy and any questions we had were answered quickly. Would definitely stay here again.
This was the perfect getaway for us. The house was clean and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. It’s an older house, but felt homey and lived in and the location was great for all the sightseeing and especially for enjoying the beach - the access was so close!! We would definitely recommend it and plan to return with friends!
Loved the blue beach house :) My family stayed here over spring break. Walking distance to the beach and a quiet street location. Loved the beach blue decor, games and puzzles to play with the family. Great value for the Outerbanks and a family vacation :)
We went for the weekend, originally planning to have some decent spring weather but a cold snap moved in over the entire weekend which cut our beach plans short. The proximity to the ocean made us want to book again when it warms up though, and the house was super cozy and comfortable with all the space we needed as a family of five.It was about a half an hour from the Aquarium which was a lot of fun, and within less than five minutes drive from really decent restaurants and shops, so even though we didn't get to enjoy the beach, we had a really nice getaway.The hosts communicated with us very well and even went above and beyond to help us search after we had a lost item incident. I can't recommend this place enough, and I can see why it's always booked when the weather gets warm.
The property was in a great location and spacious for our family of 4. Could use some cosmetic upgrades, but you cant beat it for the price. Would stay again.
This rental is close to everything but it felt quiet and relaxing. Check in was the easiest I ever had and we weren't saddled with a million responsibilities for the property. We had a great weekend.
This house is located walking distance to beach! The house is full of every type of kitchen accessory you may need! Host is very communicative and helpful!
We enjoyed our stay, lived all the extra touches to make it feel like home away from home
