Brand new bathroom renovations for 2024 season!

The Little Pearl is a classic Outer Banks beach bungalow, located in Kill Devil Hills since 1954. This adorable semi-oceanfront home is located right on the "beach road" with super painless beach access right across the street and a prime location in the fashionable town of Kill Devil Hills. Savor close by eateries, shopping and attractions, some within walking distance or a short simple drive.

The best part about the Pearl is she is all one level! The floor plan is great for a modest family because it accepts everybody to have their own space but all be close as well. One side of the home features a Queen bedroom that shares a full hall bathroom with the Twin bedroom. Between this and the other Queen master bedroom/bath, you will find TWO living areas, full kitchen with eat in bar and dining. You can relax with a good book on the couch while the kids watch TV in the other living space. Outside the home you will find an outdoor shower, garage with beach storage, cavernous front patio with seating and a great spot for a morning cup of coffee.

Fun fact- we are directly across from a famed sunken shipwreck at the 3rd street beach access. On a clear day you can see it from the shore. It's also a great spot for experienced divers and fisherman to discover.

Getting the best vacation home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Reserving a rental home in the Spring or Fall is our favorite way to save money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers frequently offer guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Often, management companies supply Kill Devil Hills area visitor guides which will include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Make a plan and pick your Kill Devil Hills rental:

• First, have your group agree to vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Fun & Retro OBX- Semi Oceanfront-One Level has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is often available online. If not, contact the property owner before you reserve your rental. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what configuration is best for your group.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or might be applied to your agreement.
• If there's a specific Kill Devil Hills attraction you are crazy about, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Tips for your stay:

• Add the owner's contact info to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• Upon arrival, document any issues with the property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be respectful. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
