Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Southern Shores

This was such a relaxing stay. A beautiful home, friendly neighbors, and a great community to call home for a few days. We loved it. Thanks for everything!

We had a great time at Bryan’s place this month. This was our third visit over the past 4 years and we would love to come back again in the future. The place is very well maintained and has all the amenities our family needs (and more). Bryan is very responsive and always makes us feel welcome. Regardless of the weather and season, this house is a wonderful home away from home.

I so wish we could give this place more than 5 stars! The location is PERFECT. Peaceful, beautiful, quiet, private, right on the bay and literally 5 minutes from town. Hour and a half or so from Hatteras Ferry, 5 minutes from Kittyhawk beach, 30 mins from Coquina beach. We saw rabbits and sea otters in the front yard, and woke up to birds singing every morning. Spotlessly clean, comfy, great AC, kitchen with everything you could need, along with beach stuff. The photos honestly don’t do it justice, it’s stunning!! Bikes were a nice perk, and hosts were very responsive to any questions we had during our stay. Cannot recommend enough!

James was very responsive and quick to make sure our stay was as comfortable as possible. The home is cute and quirky - looks just like the photos! The only thing that was confusing was that sheets and towels are not included in the listing. This was not immediately clear from the listing page. When we were told this a couple days before our trip, James was very accommodating, though, and helped us sort out the issue. All in all a very pleasant experience with a very nice front porch!

A beautiful cosy house that includes everything you would need for a little R&R in OBX. Fantastic location, within driving distance to restaurants. And most importantly, the beach is definitely walkable but it also very quick drive to your own parking area. Highly recommended!

These people are wonderful people me and my friend had an amazing time staying at there place! The place is exactly like what you see in the pictures. You will have there downstairs room to there house they will be staying in while you are there. It’s very nice that you have a walkway with access to the backyard gate which is where you’ll find your sliding glass door to your room and bathroom. You also have access to the beach bikes and the canoe which is really nice. Me and my friend brought our Blackstone down and cooked with Brad aka Sammy Hagar , lots of cool stories were shared. I had an amazing stay and I would definitely go back in the future. These people are wonderful host and the have all the suggestions of what to do , where to go

Phenomenal stay. very lovely home with all the necessities. Very good restaurant the Rundown Cafe just behind the home. Easy access to the beach, home was very clean, looked just like the pictures and very accommodating. Felt right at home and bonus was sand toys and things for the beach. Will most definitely look at staying here again for future family fun.

It was a very thoughtful home and had exactly what we needed at every turn, from kitchen to laundry to beach supplies. Thanks so much for sharing the beautiful sunset views with us!

We cannot say enough great things about our stay! Believe all of the amazing reviews— there is definitely a reason Pat and Chuck have so many! Pat was extremely welcoming and began communicating prior to our stay. She was prompt and was waiting for us when we pulled in. Chuck was just as friendly and so easy to sit and have conversations with. They welcomed you in with open arms. The place was so clean and smelled wonderful! It may not be the biggest of spaces, but it was perfect for two and Pat literally thought of EVERYTHING you could need during your stay. Forgot your toothpaste? She’s got it. Forgot your sunscreen? She’s got it. Need a beach chair or extra towel? She’s got those too! Need a snack? There’s plenty and a couple drinks also! Looking for recommendations of things to do, places to eat, etc? She’s got folders with everything for you to look through. We cannot wait to visit again! Hands down the best Airbnb experience we have ever had. Thanks again Pat & Chuck!!

We had a great time at this place! Very accurate description and faithful to the pictures. Kitchen and bathroom in pristine conditions, clean linens and lots of gadgets to bring to the beach. Those bikes and the V shaped scooter was plus! I highly recommend it!

Heather and Tom were wonderful hosts and even more wonderful people. From start to finish, they made sure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. Casa de la Luz is truly a gem: immaculately clean, thoughtfully decorated, and full of charm. The neighborhood is peaceful and relaxing, with the beach just a short walk away. When I return to OBX, checking Heather and Tom’s availability will be my first priority.

Tiffany was very responsive. The apartment was exactly what we expected and the checkin and checkout prices was clear and convenient

We stayed one night to celebrate our anniversary. It was a lovely studio apartment with many special small touches! We loved the bed….super comfortable. Make sure that you are aware that the shower is outside, though! It’s not an indoor shower, so be ready to shower outside! We loved the peaceful quiet neighborhood with really old, beautiful trees!

Everything was accurately described and very clean. We enjoyed our stay!

Great place to stay, Artim was a great host with great communication.

Mark’s place was really great. He greeted us when we got there. He responded very quickly if we had any issues. The house was not far from the beach and we had a blast. We will definitely stay here again when we come again.

Spent a wonderful girl’s trip in this condo and enjoyed every second. Beautiful, clean space, easy beach accesses, and walkable to my favorite restaurants. This was the perfect place to stay to introduce my friends to OBX for the first time. Would absolutely stay again!

This place was great! Everything you could possibly want was included in the kitchen, bedrooms, and bathrooms. The beach access was just as it was described. The storage unit had everything you would need to enjoy the beach. We loved our stay here and would highly recommend it.

Beautiful condo that is right on the water. The view from the balcony is worth staying at this condo. There is easy beach access and the condo is clean. It is the perfect size and location for a beach getaway. Gene is extremely friendly and responsive as well.

Sara’s place was a perfect location of walking to the beach. Accommodations were clean, bright and tastefully decorated and communication went well. The beds are Very Firm which was a little hard to get used to but all in all it was a great stay!!

Had a wonderful stay! Perfect for a small family. Katie was very easy to communicate with she answered all my questions in a timely manner. Will definitely be back.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautifully updated and nicely appointed condo on Roanoke Island. The views of the Pamlico Sound were absolutely stunning—especially at sunrise with a cup of coffee in hand. The location was perfect, just a short drive to great restaurants and the Lost Colony outdoor show. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the kitchen was well-stocked with all the basics we needed for cooking. We also loved the spacious dining and living area—perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Highly recommend!

Thanks, Rick. We had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend!

Robert was a great host. Would highly recommend. Great location central to everything the Outer Banks has to offer.
