Good house and great location. Plenty of essential item, like trash bags, dish soap, and beach gear. Hot tub was a big hit and the views and 30 sec walk to the beach were amazing. This is a house I would go back for another visit!

Great trip with friends & family

Great location that is within 1 minute walk to beach. Kitchen well stocked. The washing machine had an issue the first time we used it, but notified the owners and they had it fixed by next day. Definitely recommend.

The host was great, very communicative, and accommodating! The property was very clean, nicely decorated, had appropriate utensils and pots for cooking, even had a nice welcome basket for arrival. Plenty of parking and close proximity to the beach! Rodanthe is a nice quiet town 30 minutes from Nags Head, so you can choose to stay at your house or visit many of the attractions on the island. Looking forward to 2024! The Wilson’s

Amazing location

We just returned from a wonderful week in Rodanthe. We had 5 teenagers, an infant and 6 adults. The house was great for our group. Kitchen was very well stocked. The beds were comfortable. The deck's have amazing views and comfortable furniture. They supplied bikes, chairs, surfboards and sand toys for the beach - all in really good shape. But the best part - the proximity to the beach! You are literally 100 feet from the beach, which was almost deserted. We are already talking about two weeks next year!

Wonderful family vacation

I am so happy that I chose Sea Heaven for our family vacation. We were celebrating my parents 60th wedding anniversary and my daughter and son-in-laws 10th Anniversary. My daughter and her husband renewed their vows on the beach. Sea Heaven is a beautiful home and just as described online. It was very clean. Stephanie and Greg have thought of everything. There was nothing at all that we needed that was not provided. They even have beach bikes, beach chairs, beach toys, boogie boards and a surf board. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed and we did cook several nights. The view is beautiful! My parents don’t go out to sit on the beach so they enjoyed being able to sit on the sofa and watch the ocean and the grandchildren. The deck is nice and has very nice furniture. There is not one thing that we could complain about. Sea Heaven is a piece of heaven and was the perfect place for our family! Wonderful memories were made! Thank you so much Stephanie and Greg!

Sea Heaven is pure Heaven!

We rented Sea Heaven for our two families to enjoy a week together. We had 4 adults and 6 kids and there was plenty of room. the kitchen and living area was the perfect size for dining and watching movies. The bedrooms were all good sizes and decorated very nicely. The property was meticulously clean and the hosts were VERY good with communication. There was an App that we downloaded that had all the information about the property and town etc. which was VERY helpful!! Everything about this property is top-notch. There were sand chairs to use, sand toys and area to wash our feet and an outdoor shower that got a lot of use! The hot tub was an added bonus for sure!! super clean and enough room for us all! My favorite part was the deck and watching the stars at night. Previous houses we rented in the area were too close to the pier to enjoy the stars, but Sea Heaven was in a great spot for star gazing. Even though the property is not RIGHT on the beach, the proximity to walk there was just about the same distance as if we were right on the beach. And honestly it really didnt matter!!! The only thing that we were disappointed about was the fact that we had to leave! I was ready to move in. We loved Sea Heaven and hope to stay there again!!! Thank you Stephanie for sharing your home with us!
