About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

OCEANFRONT@The Lucky Duck- 100% renovated, clean, cozy & well-appointed.

Our place is a super bright, incredibly clean, excellently appointed oceanfront condo with a view you are sure to love! Literally, a 2 minute walk to the beach! This new rental property will be your "go-to" favorite annual trip location. We really wanted to make sure everyone enjoys our special place as much as we do! Enjoy lazy days on the beach and at the pool, drinks on the deck, and exploring the quaint town of Duck. And BYOC (bring your own charcoal) for a nightly cook out in the courtyard area. So much FUN! We know you'll love Colony by the Sea (CBTS) as much as we do. It's a true gem in the Outer Banks! Ours is a first floor, end unit: no elevator, 2 short flights of stairs (building on pilings). We love to cook and entertain so we have a well-stocked kitchen, including basic spices, EVOO, balsamic vinegar and just about every utensil and baking/cooking tool we could think of. BRING YOUR OWN: paper towels, toilet paper, napkins, towels (bath/beach/dish), sheets, pillows, and blankets. There is a coin laundry room for $2 per load (same for wash or dry) under the building if needed (it is kept very clean). TV sets in living room and bedroom with basic cable and streaming capability.
Our customers tell us they can't get enough of the helpful staff at this condo building. During your stay, you'll be within walking distance of Outer Banks Beaches. Features include an outdoor pool and laundry facilities. A kitchen and 2 bathrooms are available in the condo.

Great find!

From the minute we booked we knew that Tracey and David were fantastic hosts! They were quick to respond to any questions and communications were timely and clear. We were able to arrive early before check in time and Tracey graciously gave us early access to the condo. The condo was incredibly clean and very well stocked. We enjoyed sitting on the deck morning and evenings. The beach was an easy 2 minute walk so it was no problem to go back and forth to the condo if needed. One of the things we liked the best was the short walk into town…..it was only about a 10-15 minute walk! Tracey and David really made an impression on us- they were so kind and down to earth - it made everything about our stay run smoothly!

The Lucky Duck

We had a fantastic stay at this beachfront condo in Duck, NC. The location is unbeatable and there is direct beach access just steps away. The condo itself was well-maintained and clean, making it a comfortable home base for our vacation. The kitchen was a standout—exceptionally organized, with everything neatly arranged and well-stocked with all the essentials, from cookware to utensils, making meal prep a breeze. The place is exactly as described by the owners and photographs are accurate. Overall, this condo met our expectations, blending coastal charm with practical amenities for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. Highly recommend!

Tracey was wonderful to communicate with. She graciously allowed us an early check-in as we were traveling with our one year old. The condo, beach, and pool were magnificent. The kitchen was extremely well appointed with pots, pans, knives, dishes, tupperware that were actually enjoyable to cook with and use. It felt like staying in a well taken care of home, not a rental unit. It would be a no brainer for us to stay here again if we return to OBX in the future.

Just like home

This was our second time staying at The Lucky Duck. Its perfect for our family with it being oceanfront, having a pool and being on the first level. Both times we arrived to a nice clean condo. Air condition works great and we were so thankful with it being 90 degrees outside. Last but not least, the king bed was SO comfortable! We will be back hopefully next year!

We absolutely loved our week at the Lucky Duck and we didn’t want to leave! We have stayed at other condos in Colony by the Sea, but the Lucky Duck is by far our favorite! We are already planning to stay here again next summer. Tracey was awesome with her communication and providing details about the condo. It was so great to be able to check in early and make it to the beach on the first day. The condo is very well-stocked and it was super clean. Our toddler loved eating breakfast at the kitchen breakfast bar. We ate dinner outside on the balcony every night with the great view of the beach and the pool. It was absolutely perfect; thank you, Tracey and David, for sharing your beautiful condo!

Loved the Lucky Duck

The VRBO process is very efficient. We were able to review all of the properties and even though we had not been to the outer banks before we were able to make an informed decision where to stay. The property we chose turned out to be a good fit. It is very clean and well decorated. It was provided with all of the needed kitchen stuff and was very comfortable. Communiation from the owners was excellent and made the renting process easy.

Spring Break

Love the area & decided to head back for a spring break mini-vacation. Location & property both exceeded expectations. Property is perfect for a small family. Very clean with great views. Property owner kept great contact to make sure we were taken care of & had the best experience possible. We don’t head to the OBX area much anymore, but next time we do we will definitely attempt to stay at the Lucky Duck again!!!

Recharging

This place was perfect for some get-away time for my daughter, daughter-in-law and myself. Being young mothers they needed some time and space to recharge. This place was ideal. Short walk to beach. Shopping and dinning close by. This place was beautiful and efficient in every way. The host was exceeded all expectations with information on accommodations and recommendations of the area. Will definitely be at top of list for future stays

Spring Duck Getaway!

My wife and I had a lovely time in Duck and your place was perfect for us. We used the well-stocked kitchen for a few great dinners (fresh fish!). We also enjoyed happy hour on the deck with the ever changing coastal colors. Very convenient to the beach for long walks and close to Duck village. Would definitely stay here again.

Comfy condo with a view

My husband and I stayed 3 nights at the Lucky Duck and had the most fabulous time. The condo is comfortable and clean with a nice view of the ocean from the deck. It is an easy walk to the beach. Tracey provided beach chairs and an umbrella that were in great condition. The condo is close to the main shops and several great restaurants . We were able to ride our bikes and leave the car at the condo. We would surely return.

Absolutely wonderful !

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at The Lucky Duck! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that the owners put a lot of thought and care into creating a comfortable, welcoming space. The condo is impeccably clean and beautifully renovated—everything feels fresh and new. The oceanfront location is unbeatable, with a stunning view that makes every morning feel special. Plus, it’s just a quick 2-minute walk to the beach, so we spent hours enjoying the sand and surf. Beyond the condo itself, the communication with the owners was top-notch. They were incredibly responsive, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a smooth and enjoyable stay. The property is located in a charming, quiet area of Duck, making it the perfect place to unwind and relax. We loved the nearby local shops and restaurants. If you're looking for a cozy, clean, and well-located spot in the Outer Banks, this is it!

We love Lucky Duck!

This was our 2nd year staying in the Lucky Duck condo and intend to stay there again next September. It is immaculate and located in a great condo community. Just steps from the beach and pool, the view is beautiful, the kitchen is well stocked with staples like spices and oils, and it is convenient to get to restaurants and shopping in Duck. Hosts are very communicative. I cannot imagine anyone being disappointed with their experience staying in Lucky Duck!

We loved The Lucky Duck!

We had the best week at The Lucky Duck! We’ve stayed at a few condo’s in the same complex, but The Lucky Duck is by far the BEST one. The condo was spotless with the cutest decorations. The hosts have thought of every single detail to make your stay care-free. We loved the extra beds in the living room, the extra hooks for hanging, the fully stocked kitchen, and the amazing patio furniture complete with the perfect view. The hosts were so friendly, great at communicating, and we can’t thank them enough for sharing their home with us. We are the lucky ones to have found The Lucky Duck. We hope to return to The Lucky Duck next year!
