Family-friendly holiday rentals in Albemarle Sound

Enjoyed every minute of our stay! The dogs loved the location and driving on the beach was a lot of fun. 2 stallions walked through the dunes directly off the porch. The house was cozy and all we needed!

This is our 2nd stay here, and we have loved both visits! The kids love the pool, we love to walk to the beach and to town. Such a great house in a great location!

Beautiful home and wonderful stay. Perfect retreat for my visit home to NC. Warm and welcoming, awesome amenities. All of my friends and family wanted this Airbnb stay link so they can book it for future stays. Thanks again! I hope to be back soon!

The home was spacious and clean. Stores, beach, restaurants, and activities all within walking distance. Highly recommend! Sandra was very responsive and the maintenance people were quick to arrive and address a burnt out light bulb even though we advised it wasn’t an emergency. Great place to stay and great people to work with.

Great location, perfect walk to the beach, almost like oceanfront. Great hang out space and kitchen. Lots of extra blankets, fan for the white noise people. Great outdoor shower and basketball hoop. Walk to the beach was quick and not too challenging. Clean pool and hot tub!!! Would definitely come back!!!

We had such a wonderful few days at the Mermaid Lagoon. The house was absolutely beautiful and very clean. We felt right at home. We will definitely come back.

This was a perfect place for a large family to stay. The location is perfect as it's walkable to private beach where there is hardly any crowd. There are various restaurants within a mile of this location and everything was available for a great time.

We had the best time here, its exactly like the pictures and the host goes above and beyond with recommendations/ items provided and cleanliness!

Had a lovely weekend stay here as first timers in OBX. The airbnb was clean, had a fun and cozy vibe, and felt safe. Our french bulldog felt at home too! Hosts were super friendly and helpful with recommendations on which beaches allow dogs.

Even with all the rain during our beach week, we had a great time at this dog-friendly cottage. The screened-in porches made catching up with family outside bug free. Nice pool, corn hole and hammock were nice to have as well. Short walk down quiet unpaved street to beautiful beach. So many restaurants & activities nearby!

The bungalow was just perfect for my husband and I and our dog! Quick walk to the beach, which was so beautiful during the Spring! Fun restaurant just a 2 minute walk from the cottage! We didn’t cook but there was a full oven/range and just about everything you’d need to prepare meals. The hosts are very proactive and included great recommendations and instructions throughout the bungalow. As noted in the description, it is a small beach bungalow. Great for couples, especially if you like to vacation with your dog!

Awesome stay. The house is awesome and in a quiet neighborhood tucked away but not far at all from the beach, sound, and all the restaurants/bars. Very dog friendly with everything gated in and we loved the big backyard. I love a good deck and this house has a lot of good deck space including a rooftop deck which was super nice for sunsets. Very clean when we got there and had no issues at all. Perfect spot for a lil getaway with a few friends or family 🤙🏼

Host was very nice and helpful. She answered all questions! Great place very peaceful and quiet while close to everything.

My family loved our spring break trip to the Beach Barn. The house is in an amazing location just a short walk to the beach and lots of shops and restaurants. The central location in Nags Head is the perfect jumping off point for exploring all parts of the Outer Banks. Alison provided excellent instructions and flexibility with check-in, and was very responsive when we had a minor issue with the washing machine during our stay. The house itself has everything you would need for a beach vacation, especially with kids. There were toys, books, games, and beach supplies available. Amy kids particularly loved the Super Mario Brothers monopoly and bunk beds. Would definitely recommend!

We had a great stay! Everything was exactly as described. The place was very clean, comfortable, and well taken care of. We also really appreciated how kind and responsive the host was through messages. We would definitely stay here again! ♥️♥️♥️

Mary’s place was perfect for myself and the pup for our four night stay in Nags Head. It’s comfortable and has everything you need to unwind and enjoy the proximity to the beach (1 block!) along with great area restaurants, coffee shops and other amenities. The bungalow layout on the property is nicely set back from the other rental home in a way that provides for a bit of privacy which was perfect. Mary was so generous with recommendations on things to do and how to make the most out of our stay. Highly recommend!

The condo is in a great spot with some nice amenities. The tennis courts were empty, so it was easy to play if you wanted, and while I didn’t swim since it wasn’t the season, the pool looked like it would be nice in warmer weather. The location is perfect—close to Bay Drive with the wide sound-side walking path and an easy walk to the monument. There are three flights of stairs to get to the unit (this was mentioned in the listing, so I knew ahead of time). I didn’t mind at all, and the upside is no one above you and amazing views from the porch. The condo is simple but had everything I needed, and I was very comfortable. It’s also absolutely spotless—they clearly put a lot of effort into keeping it clean, which was so reassuring. Easily the cleanest Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in. Thanks so much for hosting!

Grouper Therapy is conveniently located - walkable to beach, sound, restaurants/stores in Duck, and neighborhood pool. The house had a floor plan with 3 King bedrooms + 1 more that worked perfectly for our family. The kitchen was well appointed - provides everything you need if you want to cook in. We appreciated all the extras provided - high chair, beach chairs, carts, tv in every bedroom. Our family really enjoyed our week in Duck.

Spacious home with high end furniture, window treatments and other amenities. Incredibly outfitted kitchen with multiple small appliances and cookware. Bedrooms were huge and beautifully decorated. Four full bathrooms and one half bath made it convenient for all of us. Pool was a huge hit with our family. Convenient mini kitchen on ground floor was a great addition! Neighborhood was so beautiful, private, and nice to walk.

Last minute trip planned. There were 12 of us and this house was a great size with plenty of space where we did not feel like we were on top of each other. 4 teenagers the area was perfect. They were able to go on their own and explore Corolla, walking and biking. We look forward to visiting Outer Banks again.

Beautiful place, such a great view of the beach. Beach access right across the street. Loved it. Spacious area, lots of room.

Location was great! Duck is super cute. Stayed with my kids, my brother and kids kids and my sister. It was plenty of space for all of us and we loved the outer banks!

Several areas on property to gather and dine, but also many areas to read quietly away from the group Plentiful kitchen supplies, very well outfitted with silverware and dinnerware Jorge answered all our questions quickly and accurately We hope to return to this area and will plan to stay again

Great place for families walking distance from the beach. I’ll love to visit in the summer when we can enjoy the beach and everything Virginia Beach has to offer.
