Sunset Joy - KDH MP 6, Soundfront, Sound View, Kayak, Community Boat Ramp, Pets OK, Flex Stays

Relaxation begins the moment you arrive at Sunset Joy, your soundfront escape in Kill Devil Hills. Breathe in the soothing ocean breezes, savor unobstructed sunsets over the water, and let your cares drift away in this comfortably furnished coastal home.

Step onto the back deck for a memorable dinner as the sky lights up with color, or fire up the grill for a sunset barbecue while listening to the gentle lapping of the water. For water lovers, a kayak and life vests are provided—perfect for sunrise paddles or lazy afternoons exploring the sound. A nearby community boat ramp offers access for small boats and jet skis, so adventure is always just steps away.

Just a short drive brings you to the pristine Outer Banks beaches, where sun, surf, and sand await. Take a leisurely bike ride along quiet streets to Henry's Restaurant, a local favorite for fresh seafood, or explore nearby gems like Wright Brothers National Memorial, Jennette's Pier, and the lively shops and eateries of Nags Head Village. Grab a coffee at Dunkin', stock up at Food Lion, or spend a day strolling the scenic Outer Banks Fishing Pier and Avalon Pier.

Pet-friendly policies mean your furry friends can join in the fun, making it a true family getaway. Whether you're paddling the calm sound, biking to local favorites, or simply soaking in the sunset from the deck, Sunset Joy isn't just a vacation rental—it's where memories are made.

Spring break

We loved the layout of the home- the open great room and comfortable bedrooms. Beautiful water view. The bonus was the nice wide sidewalk on Bay St. It was great for walks, runs and skateboarding.

Beautiful on the sound

Ideal location close to everything. Rooms are well set up and spacious. Bathrooms are a decent size. Ample parking and garage area. Our dogs loved the backyard and enjoyed swimming in the sound. We enjoyed spending the evenings sitting on the deck, watching the water and the ospreys flying around.

I wish for more stable, larger pavers in the back of the house before climbing the steps. I think this fix would help prevent falls.

Great Bayside OBX trip!

We had our annual family vacation to the Outer Banks. We really enjoyed this home! Some of the photos made the home seem like it might be a little dated but it was very nice inside and looked much newer. The kitchen was well stocked with items for use, dishwasher and laundry machines worked well! We didn’t use any of the beach items or kayaks since we had our own but would’ve been nice had we not had anything. Being on the water was great and the sunset views are spectacular!! Even nicer, not shown or listed (unless I just missed it) was the garage space - we were able to open the garage doors to pull our vehicles in for when there was rain/storms - loved that!! Would come back to stay again

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loves our stay at Sunset Joy. Coffee at sun-up on the porch overlooking the Sound, and the sound of the crickets and sea bird to greet the spectacular sunsets every day ... these will stay in my mind for sometime. Nice fenced yard for the pups made mornings easy, too. Very comfortable layout, loved the kitchen and the open floor plan highlighting the view over the Sound. We also appreciated the kayak, and the proximity to two great bike shops for bike rentals. Short drive to area beaches, too. We would definitely stay here again.

Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Sunset Joy was the perfect location. Off of the busy HWY 12 and in a quiet neighborhood. Only suggestions we have are new shower curtains as they had some mildew on them, trimming back the bush at the end of the driveway, a little difficult to see people in the walking path and in the way backing into the driveway, and then replacing the last step going into the water, with it gone it is a long step down and the stair stringer is still exposed. Overall we had a great experience though and would consider this as a rental again.

Perfect House with sunset views

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is in a quiet neighborhood, directly on a water. Perfect for kayaking (kayak included with rental). Spacious, clean, wel equipped kitchen, just bring your spices. There is a bike/walking path directly in front of the house perfect for walking dogs enjoying the view. There is one TV but no cable connection but you can use your own accounts (Netflix, Hulu, Max etc). WiFi is fast. Our dog enjoyed fenced in backyard. The best thing is the breathing sunsets we loved every night. It is our third time in this house and definitely not the last. The Beach Realty company were quick to respond with questions and concerns. Highly recommended.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a great spot. Very well situated and comfortable. We noticed some nice upgrades to the indoor rugs this time. My only suggestions, ones I’ve made each time we stay here and we’ve stayed several times are:1. Please get bath mats for the showers. They’re slick and someone is going to fall. We bought one the first time we came and bring it with us every time we return.2. Also a cheese grater would be very welcome in the kitchen. Not an huge item, but a kitchen necessity. Again we bring our own every time.

A break from the crowd

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was a wonderful part of our vacation. The location took us away from the busy highway and allowed to relax with awesome sunsets. The porch often offered cool breezes; even during the afternoons; which registered temps in the high 90’s during our stay. We took advantage of the walking paths which meandered around beautiful quiet neighborhoods. The only negative was the poor cleanup job done by the cleanup crew; which we discovered upon our arrival. There were crumbs and debris all over the house. Apparently the door had been left open for an extended period of time because the ceiling had many, many bugs on it. Fortunately we did not let it detract from the beautiful house. A vacuum cleaner was available. We are not helpless. One other issue: three piiles of cleaning items (white bags) were sitting on the top of the entrance steps for three days before they were taken later in week.
