Temptation #40-HC4: Dog-friendly, private hot tub, pool - walk to beach

New in our program, this home has many great reviews from past guests.

Welcome to the beach house of your dreams! This beauty has good concrete parking, a carport, an under-house entry, a stair tamer package lift, and a very cool screened porch with a therapeutic hot tub. Brand new upgrades to this home include a new pool table, arcade game, and Playstation for the entire family's entertainment.

Enter into the good-sized game room with a full bathroom, the pool table, and a full wet bar. Head up to the second level to find the first suite with a full bathroom and a nearby laundry area. The large second bedroom shares a bathroom with the third bedroom, which enjoys access to the east deck. Enjoy a furnished den with an entertainment center, and live large in the third-level great room with tall ceilings, a half-bath, plush resort furnishings, and an entertainment center. A nicely equipped kitchen with a breakfast bar opens to a comfortable dining area, and is always open for hungry appetites. Your time spent in the kitchen is made all the easier with a new air fryer, crockpot, blenders, and Keurig.

Rest comfortably in the fourth bedroom, a large king suite with a private bathroom. Three stories of decks catch every view and the plentiful rays of the sun. Resisting vacation Temptation is futile!
New for 2026, a new range was installed competed with an Air fryer option for your enjoyment

Wonderful amenities, nice house

Only drawback was location based, not house based, being located on route 12 was a bit noisey, but it was a short 1 block walk to the beach, which in my opinion made up for it, would definitely rent it again

OBX Family vacation

We had a great stay for our first time visiting the outer banks. The weather cooperated, the home was perfect and we were very grateful for the cargo lift on the side of the house as the kitchen was on the 3rd floor. We would definitely rent this home again.

Temptation fun

I thoroughly enjoyed staying at Temptation. It’s a beautiful home that’s welcoming, comfortable, clean and close to beaches for shelling and exploring. There were plenty of historic sites, great restaurants and shopping nearby. I really enjoyed my relaxing week and I look forward to returning again!

Great place right on the highway

Exactly as listed, I’ve been coming to Avon yearly for decades, (anyone have a nice place for sale?) This property is right on 12 basically as soon as you get into town. Walking distance to the beach and Froggy Dogs. The pool table and arcade games on the first floor are a nice touch. Would recommend and stay again.

Great home!

This home was great! It was clean and the large kitchen was awesome for our group of 10. It is well stocked with dishes and cooking pots and pans. We loved the video game machine. It was a short walk to the beach. Check in was simple. We would stay here again.

The house was very spacious and the decor was very fitting for a beach home (I happen to love turtles). We will definitely return.
