''Rodanthe by the sea' has amazing ocean views and sound views. Just feet to the ocean to put your toes in. You can walk to the Rodanthe Pier. Pick up shells. And the sunsets are breathtaking. The views is what 'Rodanthe by the sea' is known for!
And lets not forget about my favorite movie 'Nights in Rodanthe' that was shot in Rodanthe starring Diane Lane and Richard Gere.
Wild Horses of the Outer Banks tours is a favorite!

The OBX is splendid in itself but the pleasure of a clean and comfortable living space, a well appointed kitchen and an exquisite porch facing the ocean topped it off.
This condo was adorable; had great balcony that was private with oceanfront view. Steps to beach with boardwalk. Very convenient. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay!
OMG, love this place, and the host is wonderful! 3rd level condo with great beach view and access. And upper unit gives higher ceilings with great crown woodwork and cove lighting. Rode down to Avon, then Hatteras for day trips. Cute little town. We'll be back!
We had a great week and ended up meeting some fabulous friends who suggested Reals Surf camp.
Amazing experience and both kids (12, 11) just want to go back and surf.
We have been down to outer banks every year, first time staying in Rodanthe. Usually go all the way to Hatteras. This was a nice mid location as kids also had friend in Nags Head; unit is very well sourced. I always pack a bunch of food; but prices this year were crazy in groceries store. Unit has washer dryer so just pack minimal clothes and tons of food, laundry supplies, soap, etc
There are groceries close by and more in Avon
What an amazing property!! My husband and I fell in love with it the minute we arrived. The ocean views are spectacular...literally just out the back door, with just a minute or two walk to the beach. I spent a great deal of time on the deck just appreciating the view and listening to the waves crash.The condo was beautifully decorated and comfortable, with everything you could possibly need. If you think the pictures are nice, just wait until you see it in person! Access to the property pool was quick and easy! The pool was clean, well-maintained and was a great spot for sunbathing and cooling off. I 1000% recommend this property. It was great for us as a couple. Would be fantastic for 2 couples or a small family. Thank you for a wonderful stay! Fingers crossed, we will be back! -Alicia
The host , Kathy, was beyond helpful even before we got to the property. She checked in with me and shared some things to see and do while we were there. The condo was beautifully done and had everything you could want in the kitchen. The balcony overlooking the ocean was where we had all our meals. It was a very short walk on the boardwalk to the beach and you could sit out on the Sound side as well to see the sunset. It was the perfect central location to explore the Outer Banks. The bed was comfy and we could hear the waves at night. My husband w joyed the pool
While I walked the beach. The Pier is within waking distance on the beach and there’s restaurants just a minute away. We are in love with the Outer Banks, we would 100% go back to stay with Kathy!
We absolutely LOVED spending two weeks in this gorgeous condo! First, and most important, the view from the deck--where we ate dinner every night--is spectacular! We watched the waves, saw a glorious sunrise, and even spotted dolphins! Additionally, we saw phenomenal sunsets over the sound just out the front door! The condo is beautifully appointed and nicely furnished/decorated. The pool is warm (though it was generally full of families as it is shared with Hatteras High condos), and of course, the beach is gorgeous! We rented beach equipment with a cart to transport it, and unfortunately, the elevator was out of commission our second week. Fortunately, we were able to leave our equipment on the first floor, and nobody bothered it. The only reason I rated "cleanliness" as "good" rather than "excellent" is that there was quite a bit of sand/hair on the floors, and even one of the showers, so housekeeping needs to increase their efforts (especially given that renters make up their own beds from the bin of freshly laundered sheets/towels). The property owner, Kathy is fabulous--very warm and responsive to any questions immediately. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND this condo--it was a TERRIFIC place to stay!!!
Perfect location in OBX. We enjoyed day trips in both directions and enjoyed the beach right at the condo too. The Master bedroom was the prettiest room ever! We loved every minute of it.
Everything was extremely clean and well stocked. The owner was extremely welcoming , gave good information and easily contacted. In all if you want to be lulled to sleep by the ocean this is the place for you.
Our stay coincided with Easter weekend & was an ideal location to enjoy a week at the beach. There is a lovely deck with a gorgeous view of the ocean as well as a lovely view of the sound from the well appointed kitchen. My husband enjoyed fishing on the local pier that’s just north of the condo. Unlike previous visits to the area where we stayed in other facilities, the WI-FI/TV connections worked very well & the property manager was most helpful answering questions & making recommendations for enjoyable activities & good restaurants. We highly recommend this facility!
Rodanthe by the Sea is the best of many places we have rented anywhere in the world. It is beautifully decorated, with understated elegance. The location is exceptional, with a balcony overlooking the ocean, and a veranda with comfortable chairs to watch the sunsets.
The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could possibly want. Kathy, the homeowner, even bought us Martini glasses when I enquired whether there were any there.
The king sized bed was very comfortable, as were the chairs in the living room.
The neighbours were lovely.
Kathy answered every text immediately.
Great communication!
We have absolutely no complaints!
No negatives, only positives!
We would definitely go back to enjoy another relaxing week at Kathy’s condo.
The condo is beautiful, spacious and fully stocked with cookware. We had a wonderful time watching the beach from the balcony, swimming and getting out in the ocean. Highly recommend to stay for the week!
Kathy was awesome! When she found out it was our first time at The Outer Banks she shared information, and we exchanged texts almost daily. She was warm and friendly.
As far as the property, we could not have asked for more! From the lovely deck furniture to enjoy an evening cup of tea to all the kitchen equipment of home, there was nothing lacking! The decor was lovely!
The pool was so clean and inviting after a day of sight seeing. Loved the big screen tv, nice array of books, and the view out the bedroom window...well, you have to see it because there are no words to describe the sunrise! Thank you, Kathy, for being a phenomenal host!!
With the exception of Tropical Storm Claudette's rainy, cloudy remnants, my mother and I had a lovely time. (The condo owner has no control over the weather!) Speaking of the owner, Kathy was great and very responsive. The condo is beautifully decorated, and the kitchen is well stocked with utensils, pans, dishes, etc. The balcony was a great place to dine al fresco, and one evening, a parade of about 20 kite surfers entertained us. There's an ice cream shop at the end of the street, as well as many restaurants. A Food Lion grocery store is in the nearby town of Avon. You can't go wrong renting this place.
Beautiful condo and comfortable with all we needed. Quiet family friendly area with a beautiful beach. Property manager was great and her suggestions for our stay were fabulous. My new favorite beach getaway!!
