About this property

Private Coastal Retreat • Sound Ocean Views • Walk to Beach • Weekly Stays Only

Excellent property for family. An equally excellent and accommodating host. Brilliant semi private beach with dune swimming pool. Lots to do nearby if the beach or pool doesn’t hold your attention. Very high tech home as well and a looked after property.

Gorgeous, spacious and spotless, great family vacation spot!

We had a wonderful time! The house is a stone's throw from the beach in a lovely private neighborhood. We had 3 generations of family under one roof and enjoyed all the room and thoughtfully decorated family spaces in the home. Looking forward to another stay at Teal Tides next summer! Highly recommend.

Beautiful week at Teal Tides

Our family had a fantastic stay at Teal Tides. The entire process was seamless from arrival to departure, and Mark is a pleasure to work with as the property owner. The proximity to the beach is great with a 5-minute walk, which was easy even as a family with 2 young children. The house is truly a gem and the neighborhood is in a wonderful location. This was our first trip to the Outer Banks, and we will definitely be back to stay at Teal Tides again.

Fabulous beach house!!!

Our family had a wonderful experience at Teal Tides!!! The house is in a small enclave of cottages with a short walk to the beach and pool. It is clean, well maintained and beautiful. There is plenty of room to spread out and our grandchildren really enjoyed the game room. Mark, the owner, is very accommodating. There are views of Bogue Inlet from all the porches. The upper front porch has a constant sea breeze. It is convenient to everything you could possibly want to do! Highly recommend!!

Beautiful Teal Tides

Teal Tides is the ideal place to stay while visiting the Atlantic Beach/Beaufort area. This is a lovely beach house, well-maintained and in a wonderful location very close to the beach. The kitchen is great if you want to cook, and the beds are super comfy. Mark is a fantastic host; he provided all the information we needed for an easy check-in, and lots of excellent information about local restaurants and bars (highly recommend the Painkiller at Moonrakers, and the martinis and delicious tapas at Circa 81). There is a lovely pool for guests to use which has a great view of the beach, and chairs are always available. It’s also the perfect spot for viewing the stars at night. I would also recommend Lookout Cruises (catamaran) in Beaufort; both the 6 hour cruise to Cape Lookout (lunch included) and the sunset cruise are fantastic. Whether you just want to spend time relaxing on the beautiful beach, or sightsee, shop and dine in Beaufort or further afield, you cannot find a better base than Teal Tides. We are already looking forward to returning next year!

Why they chose this property

After returning to North Carolina, we purchased this property as my wife is originally from Morehead City and has family in the area. We love the area and have always had an interest in Sea Dreams even when we lived out of State and would come for a visit. Atlantic Beach is such a great place to visit with access to the beach, water and restaurants. The beaches are beautiful and we love relaxing on the decks taking in the view.
