About this property

Seaside | 6BR 4x4 OBX | Hot Tb | Sleeps 14 | All rooms have private bath!

  • Welcome to Seaside, a luxurious semi-oceanfront holiday home situated right behind the oceanfront dune on the 4x4 beaches of Carova Beach, Northern Outer Banks, North Carolina. This 6-bedroom, 3,484 sq ft beach house sleeps 14 with every bedroom featuring its own private en-suite bath — six full baths and two half baths total. A huge 14x28 private pool, hot tub, game room with pool table, ships watch, three separate living areas, and unobstructed ocean views from every level make Seaside one of the premier holiday rentals on the Northern OBX. One-minute walk over the dune to the beach. A four-wheel-drive vehicle is required; just 3 miles up the 4x4 beach. Three-night minimum stays available in fall.
    Bedrooms & Sleeping Arrangements
    Six master bedrooms sleep 14 guests across three levels. The top level features a king master suite with Jacuzzi tub, smart TV, and stunning ocean views. The second level offers three king master bedrooms each with private bath, direct deck access, and smart TVs — all with uninterrupted ocean views. The first level has two duo-bunk master bedrooms with double bottom bunk and twin top, each with private bath.
    Private Pool, Hot Tub & Game Room
    The huge gated 14x28 private pool and hot tub sit on the first level alongside a cabana half bath and outdoor shower. Open June through end of September. The game room features a pool table, wet bar, full-size refrigerator, and a 65-inch smart TV with surround sound — the ultimate entertainment space for the whole group.
    Three Living Areas & Ships Watch
    Seaside offers three distinct living areas across three levels so every guest can find their perfect spot. The top level features leather seating and a home theatre system with surround sound. The second level has a cosy den with smart TV. Up a half flight of stairs from the top level sits the ships watch — a four-seat loft perfect for card games, puzzles, or simply soaking in the panoramic ocean view.
    Kitchen & Dining
    The top-level fully stocked kitchen features two dishwashers, an ice maker, and a second full-size refrigerator — built for feeding a large group with ease. The dining area seats 14. New Trex decking on the third level adds a comfortable, cushioned feel underfoot for barefoot beach living.
    Unobstructed Ocean Views & Location
    Seaside sits with no homes directly in front — delivering truly unobstructed ocean views from every level. Located in the stretch of Carova Beach where Memorial Day through Labour Day the beach lane shifts cars to the dune side, keeping the beach in front of the house clear of traffic from 9am to 5pm daily.

It was a great week. Excellent location. Hot tub was out of service but it was hot and humid all week so not sure how much we would have used it. Well stocked kitchen and the rooms and bathrooms were great sizes.

Family Beach Vacation

We enjoyed our stay here. It was private and a quick walk to the beach. We watched the wild horses from the house every day. The layout of the house worked well for all of us. We would stay here again.

Love this Place

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our 7th year staying at this beach house, and it continues to be absolutely fantastic. The views are stunning, with plenty of room for everyone to spread out and feel comfortable. The beach itself is beautiful—lots of sun, soft sand, and plenty of shells to discover every morning.(The most conches this year!)The entire atmosphere is peaceful and relaxing, perfect for getting away from it all. We especially love having both the pool and hot tub, which make the stay even more enjoyable. There’s always plenty of beach to go around, and it's never crowded.We look forward to coming back again next year—this place never disappoints!

Perfect getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Seaside seemed to be designed perfectly for my family of 13. Each bedroom having a private bath prevented many fights! A private pool and hot tub was the highlight for the young kids not ready for the surf. We loved the idea of a bit of isolation. driving in the beach everyday was a breeze and a very fun. The ability to stretch out was unique from any other beach we stayed at, it was like having a private beach. Overall, this was a perfect place to stay for a large group who just want to relax. You will not find a better management experience anywhere communication and flexibility with Laura was outstanding.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Another fantastic stay - this vacation house is truly a gem. You can go from feeling the sand between your toes to unwinding by the pool, lounging in the porch swing, or relaxing on your very own private balcony. The breathtaking views will leave you in awe, and all your worries will simply melt away. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. If you can't find something, it means you probably don't need it! And for those who love to read, there's even a selection of Book of the Month books available for your enjoyment. I've completely lost track of how many times I've stayed here! I'm so thrilled to return next year! Counting down!

Happy Days in the OBX

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House was just as described and very clean. We were very happy with everything. Having two dishwashers and two refrigerators was very helpful for our large crew. Also, the fact that each bedroom has its own bathroom was wonderful. Our toddlers loved that the outside shower had warm water to rinse the sand off. The management team is excellent and were very prompt to answer our questions. We had a seafood boil catered to out to us by Outer Banks Boil Company, and it was delicious!! The views from this house are incredible. We watched dolphins swim just offshore daily and had horses in our backyard. The only thing I could criticize was the number of towels provided. However, in my experience with rental homes, that is always an issue. Knowing this we try to pack extra. With a washer and dryer available, it wasn't really a problem. I would also caution travelers with young children. The drivers on the beach are not always attentive and can drive quite fast, so you have the ocean in front of you and a busy road behind when you are at the beach. Overall, we had a wonderful time and would recommend this house to anyone who wants to enjoy the OBX.

Beautiful house, beautiful views, gorgeous weather

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful Fourth of July week at Seaside, the location was perfect for our extended family! I love that we are off the beaten path and the kids / teens could choose from the beach, the ocean, the pool, the hot tub or the pool table. We were also lucky because the Euro cup (Soccer) was on we could watch that during downtime. It was so nice to not be in the busyness of the touristy areas. Laura mentioned we may see the wild horses while we were there, well, I don’t know if we had a lucky week or what but they were at the dune in front of our house daily! They even came up to our house next to our cars and we were able to watch them directly from above. Laura responded to me within minutes for my silly and easy questions. I wish I could attach photos to convince you how gorgeous this location is and how worth staying directly on the beach down a ways from the touristy chaos is worth every penny!

12 members of my family stayed and it was great. Wonderful location. The house was nice; the kitchen had everything we needed. Plenty of room for everyone. The pool and hot tub were really wonderful after all day at the beach. We loved the 4x4 beach, would definitely recommend getting a 4WD car! It’s a drive to town so get groceries on the way out to the house.
