Are you ready for your Barrier Island Bliss oceanside vacation? Take a dip in your own private pool or hang out underneath the carport. There is an outdoor shower for you to use to get that sand off. For the grill masters of the group, they will enjoy the gas grill provided. Walk into the home and discover an elevator to help carry your items up. (Please note that the elevator reaches up to the third level, with the fourth level easily accessible by stairs.)

On the second level, challenge your friends to a game of pool and enjoy libations from the wet bar. Head out on the deck and feel the gentle ocean breezes on your face. Also on this level are two bedrooms. Both of these bedrooms are King En Suites with guests enjoying a private bathroom. If you want fresh clean towels while on vacation, make use of the laundry room provided on this level.

Up on the third level is where memories are sure to be created! Look out the vast windows and catch a glimpse of the Atlantic Ocean staring at you, offering beautiful ocean views. Feel free to open a window to catch some breezes off the beach. On this level, you will find a full, modern kitchen with bar stool seating, a half bathroom, and a comfortable great room with an electric fireplace. There is a dining table to enjoy a great meal together or play your favorite board games. The coffee will taste even better sitting in the breakfast nook near the kitchen. Venture out onto the outdoor deck and enjoy your favorite beverage while you listen to the outdoor sounds of the Outer Banks.

Upstairs on the fourth level, you will find the two Queen En Suites. There is a loft space here for more relaxation. The kids of all ages will enjoy the arcade game on this level as well.

When it is time to go to the beach, there is a private beach walkway for the entire oceanfront community to use. You will find bench seating and a gazebo as you walk towards the ocean. The view from the top of the steps never gets old.

Nestled in the heart of Kill Devil Hills, you will be close to the Wright Brothers National Memorial, local shops, restaurants, and attractions, ensuring an unforgettable getaway at Barrier Island Bliss!
