OCEANFRONT- Hatteras Island/Salvo: 2 Primaries, Hot Tub, Large Open Living Space

NEVER FORGET is the perfect oceanfront cottage for your next Salvo getaway. Nestled in a quiet neighborhood on Hatteras Island, this home puts the Atlantic Ocean right at your doorstep. With unobstructed, expansive views and the sand just steps away, you will spend your days soaking up the sun and your nights drifting off to the rhythmic sound of the surf.

As owners active in the Salvo community, we are personally committed to ensuring you have an amazing experience. We have focused on thoughtful updates to keep the space comfortable and functional, ensuring you enjoy a classic beach house experience with a personal touch.

A Peaceful Neighborhood Setting
One of our favorite things about this home is its location in a serene, friendly community. The streets here are made for slow-paced living—perfect for easy dog walks or a nostalgic bike ride to grab a scoop of ice cream. It is a quiet retreat where the only traffic you might see is a passing family of deer.

Expansive Open Living and Outdoor Spaces
The top floor features a spacious open floor plan designed to make the most of those panoramic ocean vistas. With vaulted ceilings and a large gathering space, it is the perfect spot for the whole group to relax.

Entertainment and Refreshments: Enjoy a 65-inch TV and a handy beverage station equipped with a sink and mini-fridge.

Fully Stocked Kitchen: Featuring updated countertops and appliances, a breakfast bar, and a dining table with seating for ten.

Outdoor Living: Step outside to expansive decks, a bubbly hot tub, a refreshing outdoor shower, and a charcoal grill for easy-going BBQs. The oceanfront deck is the best place on the island to watch the waves, catch a sunrise, or stargaze.

Pet-Friendly "Tail-Wagging" Comfort
As pet lovers ourselves, we have added special touches for your pups: fully gated decks for secure outdoor lounging, an additional safety gate for the main living area, and a dedicated wall-mounted water station to keep them hydrated after a day on the sand.

Comfortable Bedrooms and Private Suites
King Primary Suite: Located on the second floor, this suite features a Keurig, microwave, mini-fridge, 40-inch TV, and an updated bathroom. Sliding glass doors provide direct deck access—perfect for morning coffee or a moonlit soak in the hot tub.

Queen Primary Suite: Includes a 32-inch TV, Keurig, updated bathroom, and direct deck access through its own sliding doors.

The Mermaid Room: A charming queen bedroom with a fun coastal theme and direct, convenient access to the hallway bath.

The Bunkroom: Ideal for children or extra guests, this room features a full-over-full bunk bed, an additional separate narrow twin bed, and a 40-inch TV.

Laundry: A stacked washer and dryer is located on the bedroom level for your convenience.

This was the perfect house for a small group of friends. There was so much thought and consideration put into the way it was decorated. Everything felt new and worked perfectly. The view and beach access are 1st rate. I really don’t have anything negative to say. Highly recommend this charming beach house!

Fantastic

Ocean-front property with semi-private acces. Family oriented location. The house is clean and the kitchen is well stocked, which made this home away from home much more comfortable. Easy beach access made it that much more enjoyable because we would go out for a bit, come back to the house for meals and naps, then head back to the beach. We sat on the upper deck every morning for a front row experience to watch the sun rise, feeling the breeze and listening to the waves. So relaxing. The closest grocery store is about a 30 minite drive, so be sure to plan ahead. I rented linens and bath sets from a company that was recommended. That was a nice option and was well worth the small fee. Brooke, the owner, made sure to help us prepare for all of this with her pre-arrival comminication. And she was quickly responsive to any messages and questions I had prior to and during our stay. 10/10 recommend this property. Will definitely stay again!

Peaceful ocean getaway with our pups!

We absolutely loved this property! Our group was two families, 4 adults, 17 year old, 8 year old (birthday boy!), and 7 year old. The house is adorable, very clean and amazing open concept living room/kitchen area with a large table that could seat everyone and more! Very well stocked kitchen, keurig machine/coffee bar/separate drink fridge area.The beach is a very short walk over the sand dune- led directly off the back deck straight to the path. Even in prime beach season, it wasn’t crowded with plenty of room to spread out and have your own separate area.The gates on every deck level and inside the house was perfect for our two dogs that traveled with us. Hot tub in perfect working condition.Lower level shower/hosing off area was perfect to help get rid of the sand after our beach days.After searching many properties I’m thrilled to have booked this one. Brooke was so sweet and helpful with checking in.We can’t wait to go back and would definitely rent this house again.

Perfect Escape with a Private-Feel Beach & Great Local Vibes

We had an amazing stay in Rodanthe—this spot truly felt like our own private beach getaway. The location was ideal: peaceful, uncrowded, and just steps from the ocean. We loved relaxing in the hot tub after beach days, and our dog had the time of his life—very pet-friendly with plenty of space to roam.The house was well-appointed with great amenities, and Waterman’s Grill quickly became a favorite—so much so we went back a second night for the laid-back vibe and great food.Heads-up: make sure to read the welcome guide and bring all your own consumables (toilet paper, paper towels, etc. aren’t included). Also, a quick tip for dog owners—there are some rough patches with burrs on the path to the beach.We’d absolutely come back!

Great Cozy Get Away!

We loved our stay at this property! It was exactly as advertised on this listing. The neighborhood is very quiet. We enjoyed each morning and evening on the top deck listening to the ocean, watching the sunrise, and looking at the stars. If you are someone who likes to travel with your dog, this property is great! Each deck has a gate, and they even have a built in gate at the top of the stairs inside the home which was awesome. The town this property is in is very quiet and low key, which we loved and prefer. The more populated areas (food/attractions/stores) were just a 20-30 minute scenic drive in either direction. We would definitely stay here again!

Worth it

First time on OBX. Not first time booking through VRBO or a vacation rental site. That being said, this place met and exceeded all our needs. Check in-easier than most hotels. Not a duplex/triplex which actually was a want for us, so nice not having others on the same property. Pictures do not do justice for this place. Cleanliness was as expected, spotless. Amenities-a bathroom for every room?! Say less. And half bath up top was great. Even though we stayed in the off season (partially on purpose) The beach access was perfect. If you want a place in OBX, just you and the fam or friends, set up like a vacation home, great communication from owner, there is no looking further.

We loved this beach house. The owners were fantastic to work with we had great communication. This was the first vacation that we brought our dog, and the house was perfect for it. So many nice little touches that made our stay with our pup easier. Plenty of dog dishes and water bowls. We loved the easy access to the beach, the convenience to the shops nearby, and especially loved the jacuzzi! The house was nice and clean and comfortable. Highly recommend this house and we will be staying here again!

This house was perfect for a small group of friends for a long weekend. The host communication was exceptional. The location, hot tub, and beach access were great. There’s only one thing that could be better about this house, More common spaces besides the spacious top floor. Although this didn’t affect our stay!
