From the spiral staircase and French doors to the unique layout and additional spaces, Pura Vida delivers ALL the character that you don't always see in your average beach home. The striking backyard is a thoughtfully landscaped heaven, surrounded by mature vegetation for plenty of privacy. A well-maintained grass lawn is ideal for kids and yard games. Recently refreshed, the kitchen features stainless steel appliances and charming quartz countertops. The chef in the family will savor the five-burner gas range and the main level's open-concept layout, where they can still socialize even while preparing meals. After a day of fun in the sun, getaway to the freshly refreshed primary suite that includes a private bath with jetted tub. It also features a comfortable nook with daybed - the ideal spot for reading, catching up with work or an afternoon nap. Upstairs, the ship's watch provides an alternative sleeping option along with access to an broad sun deck with vistas of the sound.
Pura Vida is within walking distance to the beautiful Bay Drive, where you'll find a multi-use path that runs for two miles along the soundside of Kill Devil Hills. It's the best place in town to walk, bicycle or simply appreciate a spectacular sunset while exploring the neighborhood. Launch your kayaks and other modest vessels at the close by Arch Street public sound access, just a five-min. walk away. Centrally located at Milepost 5.5 in Kill Devil Hills, you'll also be within a mile radius of coffee stores and trendy dining options such as Chili Peppers Coastal Grille, Henry's and Trio. Bring your bicycles so you can bicycle to the Helga Street public beach access located half a mile away. For guests who prefer to drive to the beach, take advantage of ample complimentary parking at the Hayman Blvd access just a mile from the home.
Can’t stay an entire week? Pura Vida offers short stays and flexible arrival/departure options for those who like to plan ahead. Reserve partial week stays (three-nighttime minimum) months in advance, and choose any day of the week for check-in and check-out.
No family pets allowed. No smoking/vaping.

Tips for getting the best vacation home experience:
How to get the best rental value:
- Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
- June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To get the best value, shift your vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Kill Devil Hills vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
- Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
- Property managers typically offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
- Many management companies supply Kill Devil Hills area visitors guides which include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.
How to pick the perfect rental home in the Kill Devil Hills area:
- Select dates and spending budget.
- Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Pura Vida: Water Views
- Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is often accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the property owner before you reserve the home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
- Some rental properties allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property management company about pet restrictions before booking.
- If there's a certain Kill Devil Hills destination you crave, keep an eye out for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
- Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.
Considerations for your stay:
- Add the owner's information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
- Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
- Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are away, just like you would at home.
- To make certain no damages are attributed to your family's stay, inspect the property for any problem areas when you arrive. text the host right away to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
- Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your peace. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known about!
- Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
- Double-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed everything at check-out. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
- Inspect the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photographs of the property to record its condition.
- Did your family have a fantastic time? Most rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
