Wish we could stay another week

We stayed here in 2021 and didn't think it could get any better, but it did. Bill and Debbie are wonderful hosts. House had everything we needed and was exceptionally clean. Quiet neighborhood, very relaxing atmosphere. Saltwater pool was enjoyed by all during the heat wave, and it's just a short walk to a lifeguarded beach (and there aren't many in OBX). Can't wait to come back for more sunrise walks on the beach!

What a wonderful stay for our family ! Everything is true to description and details well thought out. We were able to enjoy parts of both sunrises and sunsets from the house! Communication was excellent..owners called ahead to let me know Central AC needed repair due to a T-storm power surge prior to us getting there, and had window units installed were installed..kept the house nice and cool! During our week, there were mostly 2 red flags days, so were so grateful we had the pool and hot tub. Plenty of beach chairs in the fun game room. Beds are comfortable, really everything you could ask for and more! Can't wait for the opportunity to come back!

OUR KIND OF COTTAGE

After literally hours of hunting a vacation rental that checked all our boxes, we choose the Sea Breeze Cottage. With a private pool, hot tub, short walk to the beach, and covered parking, it really fit the bill. The beautiful backyard and turtle pond was an added bonus! The hosts were very nice and accommodating. We had a lovely time.

PERFECT BEACH STAY

This home was perfect for a group of 8. Well-stocked with anything you might need. Linens professionally cleaned, house was very clean, game room with pool toys, over-flow refrigerator, and foos ball. The pool was very safe, and well taken care of throughout the week. The turtles became a morning ritual (they love grapes, carrots, and apples) and the very short walk to the beach was very convenient. Make sure to read the visitors book, a lot of great places to visit mentioned. We have visited all the best beaches along the east coast and this home and location was one of the best! Highly recommend!

Summer 2023

This was our second year at Bill and Debbie's rental property in Nags head. We came back for a second year because everyone loved the first year. The location is perfect, away from the crowds found further north. In addition to the great pool and beach access, we tried a few new things this year. We did a dolphin cruise which everyone enjoyed. We wée in the middle of a pod of about 20 dolphins. Spent a few hours surf fishing in Hatteras with not a soul in sight. The backyard with the pool, the pond, the turtles and the early morning Great Blue Heron is A GREAT place to relax. We highly recommend this place for a relaxing family vacation. Dave

Wonderful socially distant vacation

My husband and I had a wonderful time staying at Sea Breeze, and would have extended our stay if the house was available. The beach was a short walk from the house. It was never crowded and often quite empty during off peak hours, which is exactly what we were looking for so we could easily socially distance. It was very helpful to have beach chairs and an umbrella available for our use, among other things. We really enjoyed having a private pool and jacuzzi, they helped us have a very pleasant and relaxing vacation. The fishes and turtles in the backyard were fun, and having vegetation behind the pond rather than other houses afforded more privacy than having houses all around like some other obx houses, and we had peace and quiet throughout our stay. The owners called to check on us and seemed very nice. Overall, it was a fun and relaxing vacation. Thank you to Debbie and Bill for their hospitality!

We absolutely loved our week long vacation here. The house was clean, the kitchen everything we needed, and the rooms were cozy and perfect. Our kids loved the turtle pond and feeding them. The pool was used every day and we were so close to the beach. They also have a game room that the kids loved. Beach chairs, wagons, pool and beach toys were all accessible. I can’t say anything bad about our experience. The owners were wonderful and so easy to communicate with! We can’t wait to come back!

Loved this house in Nags Head!

This lovely house was perfect for our vacation with our kids and grandkids! There is plenty of room with 4 BR and a nice open kitchen, living and dining area. The beds are comfortable- a must for us with our bad backs. The kitchen is well-stocked. Of course the best parts are the pool and the pond filled with turtles! What a delight for our young grandchildren! The walk to the beach is short, and this beach is not crowded at all. Bill and Debbie are genuinely good and kind people who responded immediately to my questions.Thank you for a wonderful family vacation!

Best OBX vacation

We enjoyed our stay here so much. Everything was great. The house was clean and plenty big enough for our family of 7. The kitchen is very well stocked. Linens and towels were provided along with a little starter/welcome bag of goodies and necessities. We loved the pool, hot tub, and pond. We loved feeding the turtles. We loved lounging in the hammock. Very short walk to the beach. Booking was easy. Check in was easy. Communication was great. The owners are great. Would book again. We had the best time! 10/10

Sea Breeze Cottage is the BEST!

My two sisters and I just spent a week at Sea Breeze Cottage, and we had the most wonderful time. I've been disappointed in the past with house rentals that were NOT at all as advertised (dirty, non-functioning appliances, etc.), but we couldn't have been more pleased when we arrived. We had a couple of VERY minor issues, but our hosts, Debbie and Bill, responded immediately to us and we were able to quickly resolve the issues. We would love to go back again because we had such a perfect time. I highly, HIGHLY recommend Sea Breeze Cottage.
