The space

Sea Life Cottage is a vintage bungalow directly on the Atlantic Ocean side of OBX. The home has a washer and dryer, and a completely equipped kitchen. The bungalow has the original ship lap walls. Future renovations include the primary bedroom and bathroom. The hall bathroom was modernized January 2024.

You cannot beat the location and convenient access to the beach. You can grab your beach chair, and your drink of choice, and walk to the beach. Head back to the home to make lunch or take a nap, then head back to the beach. No long walks or having to park close by and lug all your gear to the beach! What could be better than the convenience of being ocean front and making it as simple as possible for you and your adored ones and friends to savor the OBX!

I want everybody to be knowledgable of what our gorgeous bungalow offers, and doesn't. In your initial reservation request, please tell me your favorite color. This tells me you've read through all the details of our home.

Booking the best vacation property experience:

Find your perfect rental:

• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To get the best value, change your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warm weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Kill Devil Hills vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Many property management companies supply Kill Devil Hills area visitor guides which include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Kill Devil Hills area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning and choosing the bestrental:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation week, and select a budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration you need. Sea Life Cottage - True Oceanfront Home with Ocean Views has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is generally available online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property management company before booking the rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's a specific Kill Devil Hills attraction you are crazy about, keep an eye out for homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.

Advice for a great stay:

• Get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your . Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Note any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are very helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers disrupting your home life. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
