Located on the edge of Pea Island Wildlife Refuge in Rodanthe, Sandcastle By The Sea is a quick drive to the charming, local life of the 7 villages of Hatteras Island.

This Outer Banks vacation rental is only 30 minutes from Nags Head where you can discover even more of the Outer Banks! Plus, Sandcastle By The Sea makes beach days a breeze with the beautiful beaches of Hatteras Island just yards away. This oceanfront home was designed and built by the same architect who designed Serendipity, the house in the famed movie Nights In Rodanthe. Sandcastle By The Sea is a truly one-of-a-kind gem with breathtaking ocean views. With nothing to block your views, taking in a sunrise or sunset on the decks is a truly remarkable experience. Sandcastle By The Sea boasts the ability to sleep 11 comfortably so everyone will be able to take in the beauty of Rodanthe. Two floors of fully furnished wrap-around sun decks are the perfect place to enjoy a morning cup of coffee while watching the sunrise and lounging in the comfortable Adirondack chairs. You can dine at the picnic table on the covered deck overlooking the ocean or at the picnic table in the grill area.

The living area also grants you access to the deck via the sliding door where you can take in a spectacular view of the Pamlico Sound. On this level, you'll also find the kitchen that features everything you need to prepare meals during your stay. The dining room is the perfect place to enjoy those home-cooked meals. Here, you can gaze in awe at the beautiful Atlantic Ocean and the Wildlife Refuge through its many, expansive windows all while spending quality time with family. the second floor also has a fish-inspired half-bathroom. If you venture up another level, the third floor offers even more space for you to gather with your crew. This floor also has a wet bar with a sink, microwave, and wine refrigerator. To round out this level, walk into the ship's watch lower floor and enjoy the spiral staircase that takes you to the observation tower. With 8 windows and a 360-degree panoramic view of land and water, these are views you won't get anywhere else! For the avid watersports athlete, there is community sound beach access for paddleboarding and kayaking and the famous S-Turns surfing spot is steps away to the North. Guests at Sandcastle By The Sea also have access to the community tennis courts.
