Stay in Luxury at the White House by the Beach Looking for executive treatment during your Outer Banks Vacation? Then book your stay at the beautiful 'La Casa Blanca”! This 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath soundside home has everything you need and more. Enjoy all the benefits of residing in Kill Devil Hills, also known as the heart of the OBX. The beautiful white exterior has the perfect coastal touch you hope for when staying on the best beaches of NC! Grill up your favorite sizzling seafood filets on the propane gas grill. You can also blast some of your favorite tunes on the Bluetooth-compatible home speaker system! Even though it's a soundside home, you'll be delighted to find it's only 0.3 miles or a 3-minute drive to the nearest public beach access.
The ground-level offers the main entry and includes a laundry area for convenient mid-week washes. Outside you'll find a cozy seating area to lounge in, as well as an outdoor shower that makes it easy to rinse off the sand after a long day on the beach!
Travel to the mid-level and discover all the common areas. The dining area offers a country table with seating for 6 and a long bench on one side that provides seating for more. White walls throughout and white cabinets in the kitchen encapsulate the theme of La Casa Blanca. The modern kitchen with quartz countertops is equipped with everything you'll need for preparing tasty coastal culinary delights, including a gourmet knife set and a Keurig/coffee pot combo. Brew the perfect cup of coffee and head out to the deck to enjoy the breezy Outer Banks salt air. When it's time to retire for the night you'll find a master queen bedroom with an ensuite bath. The bathroom features a spacious walk-in shower and its own hairdryer. There's also a convenient half bath for every guest to use located on this level of the home.
Venture to the top level and discover where the rest of the bedrooms are held. This floor offers 2 queen bedrooms that share a hall bath with a shower/tub combo and its own hairdryer while the upper-level east bedroom offers a limited view of the ocean! There's even a cozy nook located at the top of the landing with a futon bed to accommodate sleeping arrangements for your guests.
Beach Access: 5th Street Public Beach Access - 0.3 miles or 3-minute drive
The Heart of the OBX Right in Your Backyard While you certainly don't HAVE to leave La Casa Blanca to find some leisure, we urge you to still explore the bustling attractions of Kill Devil Hills! This house is located within walking distance of Bay Drive where you will find a walking/bike path, public boat launch and will witness the most stunning sunsets over the sound that the Outer Banks offers. When you're ready to explore, stop by the Wright Brothers National Monument to learn about America's history of aviation and the first powered flight that occurred right off the local sand dunes! Afterward, swing by Lost Treasure Golf to try your luck at a fun treasure-themed mini-golf course or if it's raining, catch the latest blockbuster at the nearby movie theater. Try your luck on Avalon Fishing Pier and see what kind of titans you can reel in! Also, The Outer Banks Brewing Station offers fun for the entire family! They have cornhole and acoustic performances in the large outdoor fenced-in area most nights from 6-9 PM and live bands for the adults from 10 PM to 2 AM!
Situated in the heart of Kill Devil Hills, La Casa Blanca's great location is close to all your favorite restaurants and local attractions. Easily shop for all the supplies you'll need during your trip at the nearby Food Lion or Publix supermarkets. In the mornings, head over to Country Deli for a breakfast of champions! For lunch, you can't go wrong with a sandwich from Mama Kwan's -- we recommend the 'Big Kahuna Chicken Sandwich', topped with sizzling bacon and juicy pineapple. If you're craving a burger, stop in and grab a delicious one from the unbeatable Kill Devil Grill! Noosa's Beach Grille is a prime choice for an impeccable dinner. They've got it all – from fish and chips to filet mignon to shrimp and grits and everything in between. After dinner, quench your thirst on a local craft beer from the recently-opened Swells'a Brewing! Whether you spend your afternoons relaxing on the beach, casting your line out in the ocean, or exploring fun shops around town, you'll feel right at home when you book La Casa Blanca!

We have been coming to OBX on and off for 18 years! This was by far the best experience and home we had!
Thanks for an absolutely lovely experience!
We loved the house! The layout was just what we needed!

Hello Mitzi,
Thank you so much for this feedback. We are so glad you and your family enjoyed this home and were able to make wonderful memories!
-Seaside Vacations
Great location. Some traffic noise but not an issue for our family. Our only recommendation would be to consider stocking the kitchen a bit better for families that like to cook meals in…ie a casserole or Pyrex dish, food storage containers, cookie sheet, ice cream scoop. We did thoroughly enjoy our stay!
Great stay at La Casa Blanca. Walk to the beach is easy. Only complaint is the noise from the main road. The house was spotless and smelled great. A great option and centrally located to everything from Corolla to Hatteras. Amazon Fire/Roku TV worked with all our apps. Couldn’t ask for much more. Great property.
The house was perfect beautiful just wish it wasn’t on a main road just very loud. I should have looked into that more. The bed down stairs in master was just not good couldn’t sleep needs a box spring. So had to move upstairs to the bed toward street which was noisy but Atleast slept with a more comfortable mattress. That should be in the master in my opinion. Otherwise fenced in yard great for the dogs. Lots of walking.

The home was beautifully built. The owners did a great job with the design. And what I have to say about the home is not at any fault of the owners. I loved this home!! I loved that it was dog friendly and we were able to take our dog. Upon arrival the house wasn’t very clean. I was pretty disappointed in that aspect. If a family departs by 9am and the next family isn’t aloud to check in until 5pm that house should be clean. That’s 8 hours. The floors were filthy, there were dead bugs and dust visible in the window sills. Sand on kitchen countertops. Mold on the shower walls. If there were a family in the home every week why was there mold growing in the grout joints on the walls? It isn’t something that difficult to clean, it just takes a brush and cleaner. Overall our stay was nice, I just feel like the cleanliness wasn’t there.

Hello Rachel, We are very sorry to hear the clean was not up to standard for your arrival. We wish we had known right away, as we would have been happy to send a cleaner back to address the issues. Our check-in and check-out times are set to allow our teams enough time to prepare the homes, as our cleaners are often responsible for several properties in a day. That said, we always do our best to get guests in as early as possible, and we’re glad we were able to have your home ready for you by 11:30 a.m. that morning.
We truly appreciate your kind words about the home itself and that you and your dog enjoyed your stay. Your feedback on the cleaning has been shared with our team so we can ensure it’s improved moving forward. Thank you for staying with us.
Our stay LA Casa Blanca was most enjoyable. The house was neat and clean and decorated tastefully.. A few maintenance issues came up but were resolved by Seaside in a timely fashion. The only negitive issue was the noise level caused by its location on the main highway running through Kill Devil Hill.
The home was beautiful very accommodating for us and our fur baby.
It could use a few more baking and cookware. It was convenient to all and anything you wanted to do.
