Semi-Oceanfront Dog Friendly w/ Private Pool, Hot Tub, Game and Media Rooms

SEMI-OCEANFRONT Rodanthe - Sea Haven Dr. - When it comes to vacation fun, the sky is the limit at OCEAN HI - tucked away on a quiet side street and just steps from the beach, which is only one lot away. You can start your vacation with a dip in the Atlantic or in the refreshing private pool with a soothing hot tub. Inside, there is a convenient full bath for quick trips from the beach or pool. The first level was designed with fun in mind with the game room with pool table and wet bar with full size refrigerator and the neighboring media room will delight the family with home theater system with surround sound and DVD. Step upstairs and relax in one of 4 welcoming bedrooms: a king master bedroom with access to its own private deck, a master with a pyramid bunk with trundle, a king bedroom and a bedroom with 2 singles that both share the convenient full hall bath. All bedrooms in the home have their own TV/DVD. Enjoy sky high views from the top level king master bedroom with private deck and beautiful views or take in the ocean vistas from the adjacent great room with home theater system with surround sound and oceanfront dining area. Retreat to the quiet tower room for a private respite or just step outside to the wraparound decks with clear views of the Atlantic for a relaxing end to a sunny beach day. When you have a taste for the high life with plenty of blue ocean views, you’ll agree there’s nothing quite like OCEAN HI.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The location of this property is perfect—while not directly on the beach, it is just one house back with great views and a very short walk to the beach.Unfortunately, the stay itself was disappointing. We were notified two days prior to arrival that the pool was not working, which we understood. However, we were not informed that major repairs would take place during our stay. For four days, there was constant noise from sawing, cutting, and ongoing traffic from work crews, making it difficult to relax.Upon arrival, we also discovered the entry door would not lock. Despite contacting management and attempting their suggested fix, the issue required a full replacement, forcing us to adjust our plans to accommodate the repair.There was also a strong rodent odor on the first floor, and we found multiple signs of infestation. Pest control made three visits and ultimately set traps, catching a rat. They also proposed interior spraying, which we declined.Communication with the management company was poor, with delayed or no responses during these issues.Additionally, the home does not match the listing photos. The carpet is worn, there are unfinished drywall repairs, and vents are rusted and dirty.Overall, while the location is excellent, the condition of the home and the disruptions during our stay made for a very disappointing experience.

Fabulous Stay in Rodanthe

The house met or exceeded all our expectations. There was plenty of room for all of us. The kitchen was well equipped. We loved the pool and hot tub. Beach access was right across the driveway. We did wish there were screens in the doors and windows so we could open them and listen to the sounds of the ocean without insects flying in. Otherwise, the house was a great place to stay and relax.

Wonderful Family Stay

The house was everything we had hoped for it to be. It was comfortable and roomy enough for 8 adults and 2 dogs. Even though it is listed as semi-oceanfront, we didn't have a house in front of us to obstruct our views and it was an "oceanfront" walk to the beach. We really enjoyed our week in Rodanthe!

Rodanthe Beach Vacation

House was spotless & extremely spacious. Plenty of bedrooms, baths & balconies. More than enough kitchen utensils are suppled. Great quiet location steps from the beach!

Wonderful OBX Home!

Our family of 6 and our pups really enjoyed this house, it had everything we needed! Loved the hot tub, the proximity to the beach, the space for the dogs to run outside and the heated pool! The view of the ocean was gorgeous and the house is on a private road making for a very quiet trip. Would absolutely recommend and will look to visit again! The hot tub was out of commission for a day but Surf or Sound realty sent out maintenance and got it corrected quickly.

Perfect home to be able to still social distance and enjoy the beach!

Fantastic time spent enjoying the amenities of this home! The hot tub during the cold days where were my family spent most of the time! Long walks on the beach just a few steps away, surf fishing and a short trip to the pier were perfectly suited to ensure proper social distancing!
