Great Nags Head vacation rental The townhome was excellent- the owners ensured that the accommodations had everything one would need for a great vacation. Plenty of bath towels, wash clothes and hand towels. Tons of beach towels too! Although we did not use them, there were plenty of chairs for the beach, kick boards and children’s beach gear (shovels, toys, etc.). Kitchen was well stocked and the whole villa seemed to have been renovated recently. Beds were comfortable, plenty of dressers, comforters/blankets and Pillows. 3 separate outdoor seating areas and screen porches for one seating area…. The one bad thing that we experiences was sand in the gazebo and on the boardwalk to the beach. The sand was all the way up to the handrails. With two elderly parents, getting to the beach and back was a real struggle. So much so, that it would be a deal breaker if we ever rented this place again. We called the rental company who in turn called the HOA and they ensured us that the boardwalk would be cleared within a day. It was not…. Regardless, the rental unit, itself, exceeded our expectations…

Very Good We really enjoyed our stay and loved the high end kitchen. We just had a few things that we’d suggest. The knives were very dull and hard to cut things and when we tried to watch a show on Netflix, it continued to cut out. The bathroom sink drains were also slow to drain. Other than those few things, the layout, seating and areas to just get away and enjoy the peace were great. Would love to stay here again!

A great stay. Beautiful ocean views, spacious, great kitchen. Although the host said we would need to bring all of our amenities, many were provided for us.

Lovely Ocean Front Home This was our first time in many years to find a place where we had a great view of the ocean and see the sunrise in the morning. The home is well maintained and appointed to make our stay comfortable.

Location! This condo was absolutely perfect! The proximity to the beach was fantastic.This is perfect beach house and we would definitely recommend it!

Most comfortable home we've rented in the OBX! We visit the OBX annually and always stay oceanfront on the sand! Typically we rent a full stand alone house but waited too long this year and mostly had condos and townhomes left to pick from. Well that little delay in our planning paid off big time! Never stayed in a townhome so didn’t know what to expect. We were pleasantly surprised! This home feels like a home and not a rental. You know how some of the houses you can tell just get neglected over the years and have that cheaper rental feel sometimes?! This is NOT that! The beds are super comfortable, the decor and furniture is lovely, the layout is perfect and the bathrooms-wow! Room sizes are great too! Nothing feels cramped. Nicest bathrooms we’ve had in any rental here. I was worried about noise from neighbors and you don’t hear a thing. You honestly forget it’s a townhouse-equipped with everything you will need, the path over the dunes to the water is fairly short and easy. Nice deck areas, great grilling spot, small clothesline on the deck to hang swimwear, and small community pool to utilize. You cannot see the sand from the windows as the dunes block the beach/sand view, but you can see the ocean and dunes- I thought this may bother me but it didn’t and the comfort and design of the house well outweighs this small item. You do have a grand view of the ocean from the upper floor where the kitchen and living room are. Very comfortable and we will be coming back again to this home!

Seas embrace The house was very clean and had what we needed. We really enjoyed the house and the porches. It was nice to be right on the beach. And we also used the beautiful pool almost every day! The location was right where we love to be-close to stores and restaurants and other activities.

Wonderful ! This property is just awesome! It was decorated beautifully and had everything we needed. We were all impressed ! We were sad to leave such a wonderful place to head home!

The Sea`s Embrace First time in this unit very nicely decorated and location is great.

KristenDirectSep 2024

Meticulous Rental - you won't be disappointed This is a very well taken care of rental. Very clean. It does not feel like the typical rental that has turnover every week and is worn. The decorations and design are well thought through. The appliances and washer and dryer are all brand new with no issues. Beach access is easy. Plenty of parking. It is important to note there are cameras everywhere outside this unit. There is not a porch or walkway not being watched. There are also two ring cameras with motion detection lights that flash on and off all night. The two bedrooms with queen beds actually have double beds and are quite small. If you stay in the bedrooms with queen beds, you will find the motion detection lights disturb your sleep. Overall, very nice rental.

Excellent Please consider adding a Shark or similar lightweight vacuum to the upper floor. It would help us stay on top of keeping it clean.

AndrewDirectJul 2024

Excellent - the entire family loved the house! super clean! very modern finishes We absolutely loved the house. 3 adults, 2 seniors, 3 teens. Everyone was pleased with the modern finishes, super cleanliness, and great amenities. We have nothing to complain about, it exceeded our expectations. Great direct access to the beach, close to everything in Nags Head, access to community pool, tennis court, across the street from Food Lion. I'm ready to come back again. The place was spotless. Everything was in it's place, easy to use, and everything worked.

ElekDirectJun 2024

Very Good Excellent location. Very clean. Plenty of seating all thru the house and also outside. Great supply of all kitchen housewares. Pots. Pans. Plate. Cups. Utensils. Gadgets Etc. hand soap in bathrooms was a real surprise. Would love more bath towels and kitchen hand towels. Heavy rain Thursday night. 3 rd floor bedroom window by full bed leaking caused puddle on the floor. All rooms very bright in the morning better window treatments to make it darker. Had a great week. Thanks.

JoanneDirectSep 2023

Excellent Immaculate. We love this house and come back year after year for 9 years. Beautiful!

MichaelDirectSep 2023

Awesome house Loved the Sea Embrace. Very clean, nicely decorated and great location. What else could you ask for ?

JamieDirectSep 2023

Beautiful Home, Great Amenities Would highly recommend this beach house. The location is superb, near many restaurants/attractions. The home is beautifully decorated with so many sitting areas. The proximity to beach and the various decks are great. We had a great time and will look to stay here again if we come back!

BrendaDirectAug 2023

Worth the Wait! The Sea’s embrace is even more beautiful in person. Once inside we headed straight upstairs and the first thing that caught my eye was the large picture window looking out to the ocean. What an amazing view. This home is so beautifully decorated and well stocked from beach towels to everything you could possibly need for cooking a family meal. We felt so comfortable in this home and enjoyed our stay so much we didn’t want to leave. We will definitely be back! We want to thank the homeowner for thinking of every detail to make your renters feel at home!

JamieDirectAug 2023

Beautiful property, great location Sea's Embrace was excellent. The decor and quality of the unit were phenomenal - the nicest beach property we have stayed at. The access to ocean was great. Lots of chairs on the deck and in the living room made visiting with family a pleasure. Would highly recommend and will definitely book when coming back to Nags Head in the future!

BrookeDirectJul 2023

Beautiful Stay! Overall, fantastic! Beautiful home perfect for an adult family getaway! Location was great and the amenities available were perfect. The only issue we had was with the grill, which needs to be replaced, only one side/burner worked and not well. The kitchen is provisioned really well and it made it very easy to cook wonderful family meals! Would highly recommend this oceanfront property!

DianaDirectJun 2023

Fantastic!! The Sea’s Embrace is an awesome beach front property. We loved the location and the amenities. The beds were all comfortable and the kitchen nicely appointed. The separate seating locations made for great spaces for different family members to spread out. We loved it som much we are coming back next year!!

LindsayDirectJun 2023

Amazing home, perfect location! Our group consisted of 3 families, with children ranging in age from 7-16. This home was absolutely perfect for us. Not only is it BEAUTIFULLY decorated and clean, but the location couldn’t be better. We never drove more than 10 minutes to get where we needed to go (restaurants, go-carts, surf shops, grocery). When walking in, we noticed the home was very clean. Even checking under the beds surprised us, there was no sand or debris to be found. There was an abundance of boogie boards and sand toys in the deck box, which the kids appreciated, along with multiple seating areas (inside and outside) to accommodate larger parties. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything you would possibly need. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms were nice and spacious. I have just a few minor suggestions, none of which would prevent me from renting again: All mirrors in the home are hung very high, including the bathrooms. Multiple women in our group mentioned needing a full length mirror somewhere in the house. The shower heads in the bathrooms were hard to figure out, and no setting gives enough pressure to feel like you get all the soap out of your hair. We had an amazing week staying at the Seas Embrace and would love to come back in the future!

Amazing place to stay This was our second time staying At the seas embrace. The house is beautiful and they provide everything needed for our family of seven to be comfortable for the week. The ocean front location is incredible, we enjoyed both sunrise and sunset from our deck daily. Other amenities included sheets, towels, Access to the local YMCA, and walking distance to several local eateries. Highly recommend this beautifully furnished townhome.

LoriDirectOct 2022

Wonderful! This rental has everything you will need. Beds were comfortable. Very clean. Beautiful view of the water. Bike paths. Nearby restaurants.

LauraDirectSep 2022

Book! You won't be Sorry! So glad we stayed here for the second year in a row! Beautiful beach views, close walk to a community pool. Pool was clean and not very busy. House is very peaceful, we spend everyday on the porch listening to the ocean waves! The Owner is great, property was very clean. No disappointments! Kitchen is equipped with anything you need! Book here!

TaraDirectAug 2022

Can't Be Beat! We loved this rental from the moment we laid eyes on the website pictures, but when we walked into the actual place, it was gorgeous! Everything you could ask for is available to you within the house, and the beach, pool, tennis, and shopping are all just steps away. The house is clean and very tastefully decorated, the kitchen has everything you need, and there are so many places inside and outside where you can sit and relax (with or without family/friends). The one (and only) suggestion we would have is that it would be nice to have higher chairs on the top deck instead of lower ones so that at night we can look out and see more of the beach and water. But, that is the only very MINOR thing that we would suggest. We have travelled and been to many places and beaches, but we loved this house and beach so much that we rebooked for the same week next summer before we even were finished with our current vacation!

Relaxing stay The Sea's Embrace was a great vacation home. House was up to date and nicely decorated. Only down side was the pool being closed.

MarjorieDirectAug 2021

Beautiful property! We spent a wonderful week at the Sea’s Embrace. The property is beautifully decorated and CLEAN! Our group enjoyed the ability to spread out and find comfy places to relax. The crows nest with 4 comfy chairs was a family favorite. You had to call first dibs to get a spot there. lol Happy Hour on the shaded oceanfront deck each afternoon was wonderful. Sunrises and coffee on same deck was perfect for this early riser. The kitchen was well equipped as we all take an evening cooking dinner. Only suggestion we have is maybe more pantry space, as well as a set of sharp knives and a set of measuring cups for cooking, but we made do. We’d reserve again for sure but our family is growing and we will need more space next year! Thanks for a fabulous week! The OBX never disappoints!

Awesome stay at The Sea's Embrace We just got back from a wonderful stay at Sea's Embrace. This was our first time in many years staying directly oceanfront and this rental did not disappoint. As others have mentioned, the duplex was tastefully renovated and probably the nicest one I've seen in the complex. The bathrooms, especially the showers were updated and spacious. Everyone in our party also found the beds to sleep very comfortably. We had a large group next to us in the adjacent duplex (with little kids), and we never heard them. We loved the location on the beach and our beach front seemed less crowded than other areas of the beach as there is no direct public access and we also loved the fact that there was a lifeguard just down from us. That's definitely a plus when you have teens who spend a lot of time in the ocean. We have already booked for next year, which rarely do we ever do.

AnthonyDirectJun 2021

Excellent nice clean place and on the beach. hope to be back but a long drive from Pittsburgh. I 95 and 64 tough roads to travel !

AnthonyDirectJan 2021

Beautiful Home The owners of this property have done an excellent job- it is absolutely gorgeous inside and has a lot of finer touches that you don’t always get in a beach house (motion lights on decks, fully matching dish and drinkware sets, surround sound, wine fridge, exercise bike, cafe lights on porch, giant soaking tub, top of the line washer/dryer, rain showers, etc). You can tell a ton of care went into the renovation and design. I can’t recommend enough.

RachelleDirectAug 2020

Loved it! The house is beautiful. This is the first time that we will go back to a house the next year. Making our reservation (per reservation) today.

BethDirectJul 2020

Wonderful week! We had a wonderful week! The home was beautifully decorated, and was very comfortable for a family group. There were several seating areas, inside and outside, which allowed for the possibility to be together or have your own space. The kitchen was well equipped, and had everything we needed for cooking and dining in. The location was perfect, too, with access directly to the beach. It was easy to wash off the beach chairs (take your own) and store them each evening. The only disappointment for the week was that the pool was closed. Otherwise, we thoroughly enjoyed staying in The Sea’s Embrace.

ScottDirectJul 2020

Beautiful remodel! This unit was recently remodeled with new floors, ship lap paneling, furniture and appliances. Plenty of off-street parking along with easy access to the ocean. Even though this unit is a duplex we never heard our neighbors. As the coffee maker was missing its carafe, a quick call to the office brought a replacement. Be sure to bring your own beach chairs and umbrellas!

BertieDirectJun 2020

Sea's Embrace We enjoyed our stay at Sea's Embrace and Nags Head, N.C. It was great family time and gave us a real change from being at home so much during the Covid-19 social distancing.

Excellent STUNNING REMODEL, WE ENJOYED OUR VACATION VERY MUCH!!!!!!

JoanneDirectSep 2019

Excellent The house is beautiful and exceptionally clean. If fit our needs perfectly. We had a wonderful week. Can’t wait until next year!

GraceDirectSep 2019

No detail spared! Fantastic house! Our stay in Seas Embrace (formerly beach music) was wonderful. The house was very clean and decorated sooo beautifully. Wonderful detail and quality. The view from the top floor from inside wasn’t too shabby either..can’t beat the breathtaking views of the ocean. Ps..I loved the long rectangular wooden table and chairs with the 2 fabric seated captain chairs! There was nothing disappointing about this rental. Thank you homeowners for sharing your house with us.

KennethDirectJul 2019

A lovely rental.
