Rodanthe stay

What a lovely condo and great view of the ocean. We enjoyed the peace and quiet, as we all work so a great vacation. We were able to see the entire island, lighthouses and local cuisine. The only thing is having to leave. Definitely would come back.

Missed opportunity

Owner expressed that there would be reimbursement for the date mixup /change and never received it. The front bedroom closet was stuffed and things fell out when trying to hang clothes. They didn’t fit. The tv, and internet information on the email isn’t correct. The items for the beach either weren’t there or were not in good working condition. Feeling ripped off.

It was perfect!

Condo had all comforts of home. A ocean view balcony that you could spend hours on watching the gorgeous sunsets and beautiful blue ocean. I enjoyed that the condo was only steps from the pool and to the beach. Host has made staying at the condo stress free by providing all the amenities such as a starter papertowels, soaps, Tide pods, towels, bed linens and toilet paper. I would definitely stay again and appreciate all the wonderful hospitality!

Perfect Family Weekend

Awesome spot for a quick getaway. Condo has an amazing ocean view and is minutes to the beach via a ramp, making access for families a breeze. Comfortably furnished and the perfect size for a small family, and as someone who drives an EV being a short walk to a charger was a major bonus.

Excellent rental option in Rodanthe

"Be Our Guest" was the most thoughtfully well-appointed and comfortable unit we have stayed in at Resort Rodanthe (we have stayed in 5-6 other units over the last 15 years.) Our stay was wonderful. Tamara, the host, was always easy to reach. We had a wonderful week!

We flew in from Utah and arrived late. We had no issues getting into the property upon arrival. Tamara was very responsive to my questions and had a well supplied kitchen and toys for us to use on the beach. I would gladly stay here again and recommend it to anyone.

Relaxing and Enjoyable Week in Rodanthe!

We had the best time in Rodanthe last week. The condo was perfect for what we were looking for, supplied the beach equipment needed for our beach days and had a great view of the ocean. We were able to make our own breakfasts and some dinners and had all of the kitchen items needed to do so. Would absolutely recommend and will be back soon hopefully!

Great Accommodations!

We were 5 adults at Be Our Guest & this condo accommodated us very comfortably. We especially like all the extra tables & mirrors around allowing all of us space to ready ourselves for outings. This condo was very clean, well equipped with everything needed & great views of beach, pool, & campground to enjoy. Great communication between ourselves and owner! We would definitely recommend this condo & looking forward for future vacations.

Quiet Regeneration

The property is comfortable, quiet, and well appointed. My partner and I loved being able to head out the door and walk right on the near empty beach. The kitchen is among the best equipped rental property kitchens we've ever seen - extravagant baking projects were successfully completed. We'll look forward to returning!

Great first trip to OBX

This was our family of five’s first trip to the outer banks, and we had an amazing time! The condo was wonderful -Tamara had communicated well regarding what was available prior to our arrival. She was so thoughtful and left special treats for our three children to play with during our stay. We were very pleased with the close proximity to the beach, and the kids enjoyed being close to the pool too. We all enjoyed our trip to Be Our Guest, and our kids have already asked when we will return!

Perfect location, everything we needed!

We had an amazing time staying at Tamara’s property. The rental was clean, well stocked and came complete with games, coloring books, and all of the essentials for our stay. We had an issue with our linen rental (no fault of Tamara’s) and she was able to get our linens to us ASAP as well as provide linens for us to stay comfortably for our first night. Thanks for being a great host, Tamara! We can’t wait to come back!

Resort Rodanthe

The property was very nice. It had a good beach access and the views were amazing. My family which included my wife and two kids stayed in unit 11b. The unit was even more amazing than the property itself. The host Tamara had made the condo a nice little home away from home. My wife loved the decor that Tamara had decorated the condo with. In fact my wife was getting ideas on how to decorate our house. The housekeeper, Dana, had the entire condo spotless. I definitely would recommend this property and specifically this condo to anyone wanting to visit the OBX. The host , Tamara literally had everything we needed and then some. My wife and I are already planning on another trip to the OBX and staying at this resort.

Perfect in Waves

Furnishings just as nice as the pictures and the owner has everything you could want or need. She answered my questions promptly and has the condo very organized with laundry soap, cooking oil, etc. View of pool and beach from balcony was nice for coffee in the morning. Bonus: not pictured is a gated area outside of front door with some beach chairs and a great place to drop your sandy surfboards at the end of each beach day. So easy- my kids had a great time!

About the host

Hosted by Tamara

Host profile image
We visited the Outer Banks, for the first time as a family the winter of 2021. My husband and I took turns driving the 17 hours with our 10-year-old navigator, excited to Zoom school and work remote from a friends condo. It was midnight when we arrived road-weary. As the sunlight and warmth flooded the room early that first morning, the stress of a long, uncertain year seemed to melt away effortlessly. Family meals replaced fast food, and long work hours spent with breaks to yell at my son to stay focused were replaced by him telling me to stop screaming like a child every time I saw a pod of dolphins swim past! We took long walks on the beach and reconnected as a family. Mornings began early with coffee with my husband on the balcony. We explored beautiful areas daily which ended with fires on the beach and popcorn and family game nights and snuggling up with good books or a movie. I remember thinking how odd it was that I felt so very comfortable so far away from home, it felt like we found ourselves on a remote paradise.

During the winter months the sun rises over the Atlantic Ocean and sets over the Pamlico Sound so the balcony and master bedroom was bathed in sunlight all day. Surprised by the mild weather that had the boys swimming in the ocean in December!

I saw it as fate that a unit in this building went up for sale and I quickly dipped into my modest retirement savings to secure Unit 11B. In our home I must compromise with my husband and son with their rustic/sporty design tastes. Here at the shore I was able to rebel against hard durable surfaces and sink into relaxed luxury. I invite you to pamper yourself in my happy place. Allow me to share my love of the area and the warmth of my hospitality with you and your family. I guarantee you will feel relaxed and at home from the first moment you walk in. This is the perfect romantic get away, place to work remote or enjoy with the littles as even they will feel spoiled here.

What makes this property unique

Tranquility awaits on this 200 mile string of barrier islands which, at Rodanthe North Carolina, sits 30 miles from the coast of the United States and is just over two football fields wide. Access the island by North Carolina Highway 12. Rodanthe boasts stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Pamlico Sound to the west. This humid subtropical climate is at its peak June-Sept relieved by a cooling afternoon sea breeze present most days.

Enjoy fine dining, golfing and water sports like swimming, fishing, kayaking, sailboarding, snorkeling, kiteboarding and wreck diving.

The islands are home to herds of feral horses, called "banker ponies", which are descended from Spanish mustangs washed ashore from shipwrecks centuries ago. Horses are found on Ocracoke Island, Shackleford Banks, Currituck Banks and in the Rachel Carson Estuarine Sanctuary.

Many restaurants, shops and markets are family owned and seasonal, closing Oct 31st when one must take the short drive south to Avon or north to Nags Head for fine dining. I recommend every guest try my favorite hot takeout from Waves Deli a 3 minute drive away.

There are 6 lighthouses in the Outer Banks
- Currituck Beach Lighthouse, located in Corolla, North Carolina
- Roanoake Marshes Lighthouse, located in Manteo, North Carolina
- Bodie Island Lighthouse, located south of Nags Head, North Carolina
- Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, located in Buxton, North Carolina
- Ocracoke Island Lighthouse, located in Ocracoke, North Carolina
- Cape Lookout Lighthouse, located in Carteret County, North Carolina

This condo is located near the luxury Camp Hatteras RV Resort & Campground which provides exceptional people watching and expansive Atlantic Ocean views as there are no buildings in the way to spoil your view.

Enjoy an ocean view while you work from a beautiful desk with dual curved monitors, connection cables, keyboard, mouse and comfortable ergonomic office chair.

Come experience the best of the OBX!
