Picture yourself on the beach enjoying a family vacation, and we mean right on the beach! Come to ‘Happiness’ for your own little section of heaven on earth in this comfy and cozy cottage by the sea. Loved by owners that love the beach as much as you. In real-estate they say ‘Location, location, location’ and ‘Happiness’ definitely has it! Grandma can watch the kids play on the beach just a few feet away, and everyone will spend all their waking time taking in the views and salt air. Mom and Dad will love the top master bedroom with ocean views from the bed and great ocean breezes blowing through at night. Everyone will love the convenient location to activities. Shopping is just minutes away, restaurants are within walking distance, from casual Caribbean fare to property cookin’ to five-star luxury! Walk down the beach with the kids, or take a minute to drive to all the family activities within minutes of ‘Happiness’.

Great location and upgrades!
This is our 2nd time staying at this location and we were a little frustrated at the price hike; however, that is my only complaint! The owners have made wonderful upgrades and the house is perfect for a small group. It's steps from the beach, great views, clean and convenient to many restaurants, stores, etc. We just love it. The wide open kitchen, living room area is perfect with wonderful views. They have a newer grill and all the amenities really make the place well above average. The owners left an additional gift, even though Outer Banks Blue gives you a starter kit which was a nice touch. Kudos to the owners for this wonderful little piece of happiness!

Ultimate Recommendation: We are Renting Again . . .
We’re four month late in getting this review out, but we didn’t have much to say other than we are renting The Haven again for 2021. The location is perfect: on the beach, steps to the water. The cottage is comfortable with lots of light and plenty of room. (Sturdy too: we were there for Isaias.) The deck provides outdoor living at its best. Any issue was quickly and efficiently addressed by Outer Banks Blue. We needed some areas cleaned (vents), a drain unclogged and a shower head repaired. We suggest upgrading the kitchen and replacing the living room furniture with more comfy pieces (not that we spent that much time indoors). N.B.: nothing made for a bad vacation. In sum, we have been visiting the Outer Banks for 50 years and this was the best!

Haven

This house has everything you would need for a nice vacation. Walk off the deck steps and your feet are in the sand. Can't beat the location. Could use newer furniture in the living room as the couch is very uncomfortable.

Thank you for the feedback. We've shared your thoughts on the couch with the owner.

Beachfront Bliss
This nice beach house was comfy, the ac was QUIET, and the furniture was nice. The view was awesome! Outer Banks Blue is the BEST for courteous, helpful service. Only reason for 4 stars is the tv cable went from expanded to basic coverage in the middle of our stay. And on a rainy day when we stayed indoors. And there was no phone service as advertised. The kitchen was well equipped but missing a couple of necessary items. A cutting board and a baking sheet. All in all, we loved the house and will be staying next year. Thanks Outer Banks Blue!!!
