Beautiful home right on the beach & close to pier. The view was AMAZING! Fully stocked kitchen with an additional refrigerator on the ground floor for back up supplies. Floor plan was ideal for large group lounging on the top floor, yet bedroom suites, game room & hot tub allowed for smaller group connection. Perfect escape for our 20 something children, parents, and siblings. First time celebrating Christmas at the beach. We highly recommend booking yours! Would love to return each season.
We have been visiting the Outer Banks since the late 80s and this is the best house, location and host we have encountered. The house was spotless and is perfectly appointed and has everything you can even think of to need. The location is perfect, you can almost throw a beer off the deck to your family on the beach. Brian and his team were incredibly helpful and responsive on any little question we had. Overall it was a fabulous week!!

Thank you so much for the amazing review! It truly means a lot, especially coming from long-time Outer Banks visitors like yourselves. We're so happy to hear the house, location, and little touches made your stay special.
It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’re thrilled you had a fabulous week. We’d love to welcome you back anytime, your beach spot (and deck view!) will be waiting!
Beach view from top floor was great. Ac was plenty cold. Parking was hazardous not enough room to maneuver the vehicles. Elevator was a great asset since some of us were elderly and a lot of help getting luggage and groceries to the kitchen and back down when we were leaving. Having the personal items provided was great. Our stay was great and we would recommend the Wave House highly
Incredible views and great location close to pier. Family enjoyed the beach, pool, and hot tub. The amenities were top notch and the coffee bar was heaven.

We stayed here with family members aged 11-80 and found this house to be wonderful. It’s just as advertised - a perfect location, right on the beach. It has everything you could need on vacation.
The house is in beautiful condition and owners are very responsive. You won’t regret staying at this house.

The Wave House was the perfect pick for our family vacation. We came from 6 states with ages 2 through 91! The house had everything we needed to feel right at home. We cooked every day and had everything we needed.The elevator was enjoyed by all. We are especially appreciative of the pier passes! Brian checked in often to make sure everything was good and he was extremely responsive to any questions we had. I would highly recommend a stay at the Wave House!!

This oceanfront home was amazing and came with all conveniences and necessities. All descriptions and photos fully accurate. The owners were the most responsive and helpful out of all the years we’ve been renting! Check in and check out was seamless. The elevator going to each level was a big bonus. I would highly recommend this beautiful home. You will not be disappointed.

This house is amazing and has everything one would need. 2 Families, 8 people total had more than enough room for everyone. Rodanthe is away from the crowds and the beach (at your doorstep) is the opposite of crowded. Great Beach Vacation!!!

We're so glad that you had a great vacation with your all your family at our beach house! We love the uncrowded beaches here as well!
The property is beautiful and fully equipped to make your stay there one to remember.
We had a great time with kids and grandkids.
The elevator was great to move things and especially our special needs granddaughter.
We loved it.
This is the perfect beach house. Every bedroom has a bathroom. There is an elevator which was perfect for aging parents and also just to carry luggage and groceries up and down. We enjoyed the game room, the bicycles, the beach chairs and the beach access, just to name a few. Also, the proximity to the pier is ideal when you have a group of fisherman. Highly recommended this vacation home!

Our family trip was filled with peace and comfort. The home was beautiful and held everything we would need or want. The ocean right outside our window views. The pier in walking distance. Sunrise above the ocean. And sunset on the sound. It’s a perfect place for a majestic trip.

Absolutely Breathtaking – A Perfect Oceanfront Escape
We can’t say enough about how magical our stay was at this oceanfront property. From the moment we arrived, we were swept away by the stunning views—waking up each morning to the sound of the waves and watching the sunrise/sunset from the deck was pure bliss. The home was beautifully maintained, spotlessly clean, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay.The location is unbeatable—steps from the beach, yet peaceful and private. Whether we were sipping coffee while watching the waves in the morning or enjoying wine under the stars at night, every moment felt like a dream. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and made the entire experience seamless from booking to checkout.If you’re looking for a place to truly unwind and soak in the beauty of the ocean, this is it. We’re already planning our next trip back!

Thank you so much for your kind words! We are so happy you had a magical stay and enjoyed the views, the beach, and the peaceful setting. It means a lot to us that you felt comfortable and relaxed. We would love to welcome you back anytime!
Our family rented this location because is was on the beach, looked spacious, and had an elevator for our 85 year old mother. The house was clean and very well stocked! It was bright inside and the views over the ocean and beach were perfect! We used the hot tub, bikes, pool, and beach chairs. There was lots of room for us to spread out with the upstairs living room and game room downstairs. Brian (our host) was a great communicator and very responsive to questions.

David, we’re so glad you and your family we able to enjoy the pool, bikes, hot tub and other amenities! We’re happy to hear your Mom was able to get around easier with the elevator as well! We’d love to host you and your family again here at our Wave House in the OBX!
An exceptionally well-equipped, well cared for, and well-managed home—plenty of parking space but also close enough to walk to restaurants. Beach is wide and the porches allow you to watch what's happening from the home. Early in the season the pool will need to be heated. Two washers and dryers made life easier for dealing with children and towels. Overall, one of the best homes we have stayed in 5 decades of beach visits.
