Your pup will feel right at home with a fully fenced brand new dog run just a few feet from the deck. Our cozy house is the perfect spot for your dog-friendly, family-family vacation on the Outer Banks! Enjoy life under the stars and string lights in Rodanthe!

What a Great Trip! The house was very clean, organized, and had a home feel to it from the minute we walked in until the day we left! One of the best "pet friendly" homes we have stayed in and highly recommend if this is the area you want to stay in. Also, the short walk to the pier was easy!

Holiday Getaway

Beautiful, clean, roomy home steps to the beach. Started the week with warmer weather and days playing in the waves and collecting shells, ended the week with chilly weather and soaking in the hot tub. Steps from the beach to watch the sunrise every morning. Everything we needed was provided. Enjoyed every second of our stay at this beautiful home. Cannot recommend Sea Winds enough.

A little piece of paradise barefoot Vacay

We stayed in this adorable beach house that was so thoughtfully designed. The view from the deck, looking out over the Atlantic and the pier, was just stunning. It was the perfect place to kick back and relax.One of the best parts was definitely the hot tub – it added a touch of luxury to our trip. Plus, the outdoor shower was such a fun daily treat. We enjoyed every moment of our stay, spending the week in barefoot bliss at this little paradise.If you ever get the chance, I highly recommend staying at this beach house. It's a dream location that gave us some unforgettable memories.

Cutest little beach house in Rodanthe!

This house checked all the boxes for our family of 5! The deck was awesome to hang out and watch the sunset and we all enjoyed the hot tub after our days exploring and beaching! It was very clean and there was a great little basket of snacks and a bottle of wine waiting for us upon arrival. Communication was great, appreciated the recommendations given for food spots etc. and we loved that the check out was easy. Such a great spot, literally steps from the beach and the shed had everything needed for a day at the beach. We just wish we could have spent more time here, highly recommend and would definitely stay again!
