Welcome to Windows of the Sea! PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING Before reserving, we want to share a few important details to ensure Windows of the Sea is the right fit for your stay. Windows of the Sea is a classic Outer Banks oceanfront home that has proudly weathered many coastal storms over the years. We’ve consistently invested in the essentials—HVAC, roof replacement, and storm-related repairs—to keep the home safe, comfortable, and secure. While we prioritize structural updates and major systems, you may notice some natural wear that comes with a well-loved beachfront property. We are continuing to plan future cosmetic upgrades and truly appreciate guests who value charm and location over luxury finishes. This home is truly oceanfront—just steps from the sand. With that incredible proximity comes the reality of coastal living. At times, high tides and ocean overwash can bring sand into the driveway area. The home itself remains safe and secure, but parking may occasionally need to be along the roadway or around the corner. We do our best to have sand cleared promptly, though Mother Nature ultimately sets the schedule when you’re this close to the Atlantic. Windows to the Sea is priced accordingly and offers a rare opportunity to stay in a genuine oceanfront home—where you can cast a line from the deck and fall asleep to the sound of the waves. While it’s not a luxury property, it provides all the essentials for a comfortable stay, plus reliable 24/7 guest support. We believe in being transparent so you can book with confidence. Windows to the Sea may not be the perfect fit for everyone, especially those seeking high-end finishes—but if you’re looking for unbeatable location, authentic coastal charm, and attentive hospitality, we’d love to host you.

Please note that Windows to the Sea is an older home that has weathered many storms. There are some cosmetic repairs needed throughout the home we hope you are able to overlook for its location. It's a rare opportunity to stay at a home so close to the ocean. The homes in this section of the island can be very close to the water at high tide and many homes in this section have been lost to storms and erosion. Our county has projected beach nourishment along our coast and we are hopeful this will ensure we can continuing enjoying the island and hosting our guests for many years to come. We hope to keep renting Windows to the Sea for as long as Mother Nature will let us safely as we have many guests who have been staying at the home for decades. We hope our pricing reflects the nature of the home. Windows to the Sea is best suited for a unique oceanfront stay opportunity on a budget. If you're looking for a luxury rental, we do suggest you continue your search.
