Salty SolMate | Hot Tub, Steps to Sound & Sunsets - Vacation rental home in Kill Devil Hills, NC

Summary:

The Space:

Salty SolMate is the kind of home that surprises you. Guests tell us the photos don't do it justice — and they're right. Inside and out, every detail has been thought through: memory foam beds, Frette towels, Lather soaps, a kitchen supplied for real cooking, complimentary water, and treats on arrival, and an outdoor space designed for lingering long after dinner.



The lower carport area is the social hub. Hot tub, outdoor bar, two swing beds, hammock swings, and an outdoor shower. Take a left out of the driveway, and you're two mins. to the Bay Drive gazebo — one of the best sunset walks on the OBX. Take a right, and Hayman Park is one peaceful block away. Free beach parking at Hayman Beach is straight across the stop sign at the end of the street - pack the beach gear and go!



September and October are genuinely special here. The hordes thin out, the temperatures drop just enough to make the hot tub feel like a destination, and the sunsets on Bay Drive get longer and more dramatic. Even on rainy days — and OBX always has at least one — the covered ground-level carport area keeps everybody entertained. Guests have set up corn hole, kept the kids busy, and stayed completely dry without missing a beat.

"Very clean home. The outdoor shower was convenient. The host included toiletries. They also gave us stuff for the beach, like a wagon, chairs, and body boards. There were many spices and cooking supplies. The lollipops for kids were a nice touch. The family appreciated it." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Anike



"This home was such a treat to stay at. We had two couples and two teens in our crew. So much room, handsome accommodations, many places to sit, relax, chat, play games, and a short walk to the sound for elegant sunsets. Communication with our hosts was top-notch. We couldn’t recommend this home more!" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Sara
