Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Amy Ames
I’m based in North Carolina, and I spend much of my time outdoors with a camera in hand. I’m a wildlife and nature photographer who loves quiet mornings, salty air, and watching light move across the landscape. Hosting at The Salty Lens feels like a natural extension of that — I love sharing a beautiful place where people can slow down, reconnect with nature, and make meaningful memories by the sea.
Why they chose this property
Our stretch of North Carolina is known for its gorgeous turquoise water and wide, sandy beaches. The color of the ocean here is truly remarkable — especially in the morning and late afternoon when the light makes it glow. I love that the neighborhood is quiet and laid-back, yet just minutes from great restaurants, coffee shops, and local markets. It’s the perfect blend of serenity and convenience.
What makes this property unique
What truly sets our home apart is the combination of thoughtful design, incredible views, and a genuine connection to the coast. From sunrise coffee on one of the two decks to the convenience of private beach access, every detail is meant to make your stay feel effortless and memorable. We’ve curated the space the way we would want to experience it ourselves — comfortable, beautifully appointed, and deeply connected to the rhythms of the ocean.
