North Carolina is an ideal vacation place. Aside from its exceptional dishes and eye-catching monuments, it’s a place rich in picturesque sceneries. Kitty Hawk, in particular, has lots of activities and attractions suitable for people of all ages. Go for a dip in the ocean, or sunbathe on the white sandy beach. There are forests where you can walk along nature trails or you can even try fishing at the pier. Of course, no trip is complete without staying in a nice comfortable room near these sites. So if you want to drop by this summertime paradise, scroll through this list of 10 cosy Airbnb vacation rentals in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 09, 2024.

1. Contemporary lodging with a hot tub (from USD 89)

Spend time with your partner in this minimalist house for your beach date. First of all, the king-sized memory foam bed will make it almost impossible for you to get out of bed. There’s a coffee bar, microwave, and mini-fridge in the kitchen for your drinks, meals and snacks. The living room has 55-inch flat-screen television where you can watch anything on Netflix, Disney Plus, and Amazon Video. Treat yourself by giving the jetted hot tub a try. The beach is within walking distance, but you’ll have to pass by a busy street so driving is recommended.
