Perfect house, great location

We visited the OBX to take our son deep sea fishing for his 16th birthday. (Although it was canceled due to weather) We typically get a room on the beach, but decided to find a house so that we could stay with my sister-in-law and her husband. The Blarney house was perfect for us! The house was clean. Although we didn’t cook while we were there, the kitchen was stocked with everything you would need other than food. The weather was not great, so we were unable to spend time out on the deck, but would have loved to do that. There was a beautiful view of the ocean from there. Deana was great and very communicative. We didn’t have any issues during our stay. I would definitely stay there again!

Perfect spot for beach lovers

I went with two high school friends, and we absolutely loved the location. A short walk to the beach. Not only that, but the deck off the top had a beautiful view of the water as well. Everything was smooth In checking in, and it was a perfect spot for a beach retreat.

Great location! Good views. Comfortable.

Me and my wife stayed here for the weekend and had a great time. Our favorite restaurants are nearby and everything else you could need is almost all in walking distance. The beach is about a two minute walk. We will definitely stay again. Might even bring the kids next time.

We were all pleased with this house. It is clean and well located. We really enjoyed the ocean view from the porch. Also appreciated being given more than just one set of bath linens per person. Host was very responsive to messages. Would stay here again.

Wonderful Getaway

Blarney Beach Bungalow was just as described & more. It was clean, attractive & comfortable- supplied with everything we could need. The location was great; central to shops, restaurants & near the beach. Easy drive to Wright Brothers museum & monument, Bodie Lighthouse, Roanoke, & Nags Head pier. The outdoor shower is a major convenience to wash off sand after the beach & the laundry too. Daena was a great host- helpful texts & quick response to questions. Checkin & checkout were easy. This was the perfect getaway for our family of four adults & three kids.

Great location and set up

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The location is great--close to the beach and on a quiet road. We made good use of the kitchen, but also appreciated the proximity to restaurants for take out. Everything on the property was in good working order, and when we had a couple questions over the course of the week, the property owner answered promptly.

Cousin reunion

We had the best time spending time at the beach but more so at the house, room for all 7 of us girls and the porch was great for hearing the waves crashing and just sitting outside spending time together. House was very nice, felt right at home.

Excellent place 👌

The beach house is beautiful and makes you feel very welcome and relaxed. It is minutes away from the beach and Daena has it stocked with all necessary items. I especially liked the bedroom that had the view of the ocean. Ocean views are also available from the second floor deck and living room. Perfect for a relaxing holiday and I'm sure to rent again here.

We loved this property! Very accurate description! The owner is friendly and communication is awesome. I would recommend this place to stay at in Outer Banks. You can walk from the house to the beach within a few minutes. The view of the ocean from the porches is amazing.

A great spot!

My wife and I stayed here with our 8 month old and a couple of friends visiting us for 4 nights. We had a great time and enjoyed our stay. With 4 adults and a baby, we could comfortably have fit another person or two. Overall i’d say the beach house is accurate to the listing. It was comfortable to hang out in, nice and close to the beach by foot, and central for restaurants and such as well. Would recommend!

Phenomenal vacation home!!

We LOVED this house! Spotless, gorgeous view, has everything a family needs for a beach vacay! We flew in, so couldn’t pack a ton. It has chairs, toys, umbrellas, and a cooler! The outdoor shower and the clothes lines were more important to happy clean kids than I thought. We had one minor issue and it was fixed in 2 hours. We will stay here again happily!!

Wonderful beach week

We loved the house and location! Everything was just as described and the owner was very communicative. We enjoyed the very short walk to the beach every day and appreciated the beach gear provided . We also enjoyed taking little day trips south to Manteo and the NC aquarium and north to Duck and Corolla, all very reasonable drives from this centrally located but still quiet home. We also enjoyed cooking dinner at home a few evenings. We would absolutely come back next year and hope it will be available!

Perfect location and accommodations for our family getaway.

Our trip started with a very bad aura. I reserved another VRBO location and unfortunately, wasn’t able to reach the host to occupy the property. I then proceeded to call Vrbo to assist in my dilemma. Vrbo put my family up at the Hilton for the night as well as found this location, which ended up being a huge blessing for our family. After first day of confusion and mess ups, the rest of the trip was fantastic. This location is a 2 minute walk from the beach and the home has all the beach equipment you need chairs, umbrellas, and beach toys. The house is a perfect size for a family of 5 to 7 people. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who’s looking to get away at a very good price and very close to the beach..

Fantastic Super House and Super Host

Daena is a super host! From the initial reservation request until checkout she graciously assisted as needed. The house quickly became a home. The ocean views are sensational. It was a two minute walk to a wide stretch of white sand beach. The master bedroom bed was more than comfortable! A mark of a great rental. If you like to cook, the kitchen is very well equipped and maintained. We visited with friends staying in Southern Shores and I easily prepared dinner for twenty without missing or needing any pots, pans, or utensils. The two bathrooms are spacious and spotless. The decks and screened in porches have great ocean views and are perfect for morning coffee or an evening cocktail. As you can tell, we found the home, location and all the amenities ideal. We will be back!!

Amazing Location Stones throw from Beach

Property is one street over from the beach. You can see the water from the property but struggle to see any waves due to a sand dune between the house and beach. With that said, it is amazing to wake up in the morning to make a cup of coffee and sit on the porch watching the sun rise and the waves crash. We had an amazing time and would recommend this location to anyone else looking for a beach house stay. We also would highly recommend checking out Trio, a restaurant/market across the street. Thanks for letting us stay in your beautiful home!

About the host

Hosted by Daena

Host profile image
We have owned this house since 1997. Our family takes pride in providing an affordable, updated space for you to visit. We self-manage our home, which means we constantly look for ways to improve your experience.

Why they chose this property

Our kids love the beach and love being able to bring their friends. Our property is a one minute walk to the beach access on White Street. It is located in the heart of everything that the Outer Banks is known for!

What makes this property unique

Unencumbered ocean views from the main living level allow you to sit in the living room, dining room, screened porch, or deck to drink your morning coffee, relax after a day at the beach, or just relax in general. Kitty Hawk is centrally located for easy travel to the northern beaches of Corolla and Duck, the southern beaches of Nags Head, Hatteras, and Ocracoke, or the quaint town of Manteo. The house is the 3rd house back from the ocean, so it is a short, 1-minute walk to the sand. Pack your lunch to take to the beach with you, or go for a morning and come back for lunch. Many outdoor water, nature, and historical places to go make the Outer Banks a prime family destination. Check out specials on Groupon for a last-minute jet ski rental or kayak rental. Dining on the Outer Banks is truly spectacular. With something to fit all taste buds, travelers can find seafood, steak, vegan, Sicilian, Mexican, American, sushi, and many other tastes to fit their epicurean delights. The beach is uncrowded and great for making wonderful memories with family and friends.
