Stay Salty | Oceanfront | Private Pool, Hot Tub, Dog Friendly | Nags Head
“Stay Salty” (formerly Ocean Paradise South") awaits your family for your own paradise vacation. Besides the private pool and hot tub, ocean views are the star here, from two levels of the house. Top all that off with the fact that you can bring your family dog…it is just too good to be true! The top level great room, kitchen and dining all have great views from the wall of windows that line the east side and access to the deck. The ocean views while dining, relaxing in the living room, or from the kitchen and bar area are sure to please everyone! Six master bedrooms are just one of the amenities that set “Stay Salty” apart from the rest.
Everyone will be entertained with a private pool with ample decking for relaxing. The poolside hot tub is a great spot to relax and unwind while watching the action in the pool. The walkway to the beach makes it easy to get there. Just inside the ground level rec room is a cool reprieve from the sun to play pool or relax and watch a move. You could relax on the mid level deck with a book or enjoy all the sun you can get on the beach, the pool or the top level deck with great ocean views. The kitchen has granite countertops and the convenience of a pantry so you can be well stocked all week! This kitchen is for family chefs. With a 5 burner stovetop, 2 ovens and 2 dishwashers, you have everything you need…everyone will want to help!
“Stay Salty” is at a great location. Within walking distance to Jennette's Pier, restaurants and groceries, you will never worry about running out of milk or mixers. The Outlet Mall is just minutes away, as well as Oregon Inlet and Pirate's Cove Marinas. Take a day trip to catch 2 lighthouses: Bodie Island Lighthouse is minutes away and the Cape Hatteras Light is just about an hour's drive. Make a trip just over the causeway to historic Roanoke Island for quaint shops and history at every turn.

Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Everything in the house was great! It was so close to the beach with easy access, our guests enjoyed that. The hot tub was clean and warm. Plenty of space for everyone to move around and be comfortable. The kids enjoyed the bottom level with the bunk beds and pool table. We would love to come back in the warmer months. Thanks for ensuring our stay was comfortable with the text message check ins and making everything easy for us. We hope to return!
Overall the house is near perfect. A few little thingscthat need improvement. I anticipate all issues will be dealt with. We would definitely want to stay here again.
Overall, we had a great time. A great property, excellent location, and home size. Would definitely rent this property again! Minor recommendations: hot tub needs a new cover, wooden decks and fence need to be painted, and fence door leading to the ocean needs to be fixed.
The house could stand a little TLC, but no major issues. Maybe a new living room sofa and more seat for like a movie night!

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
The whole house was full of dog hair. It had not been cleaned at all. I had to request a vacuum cleaner so I could clean it myself. Thought I should have been given some kind of a refund but was not. I also sent photos to show them.
Great bedroom accommodations. We would have liked Teflon pans and lights in the driveway. Also garbage can was full of something metal and screen laying on the ground were the first things we saw upon arrival. Inside the home was home and bedrooms nicely decorated.

Property needs some love and a better cleaning crew
While I think the property was great for us, I will say we are all in the 28-33 range and are pretty low maintenance. House is fantastic for large groups because of how many bedrooms it has and all rooms on the 2nd and 3rd floor had large beds and private bathrooms which was great. We loved having the hot tub and pool as well as being able to walk right on to the beach. Really didn’t notice much of what was listed in the TLC comments from prior visits. The only 2 things I can mention is a couple of people said they saw a mouse on the ground floor which I did not see (and the property wasn’t dirty which is typically inviting to mice) and it could use some paint. For the paint, mainly referring to the outside which is more an off season project. Super minor (or unconfirmed) things though. Really don’t want it to take away from the great experience we had there.
Nice house but Pool was not ready & Air Conditioning was broken
The house was lovely itself but we had 2 major issues. When we arrived there was a guy there just starting to treat the pool for the season. It was filled with sand, scummy, and black mold all around the lip of the pool. We booked the house purposely for the pool so we could enjoy Memorial Day weekend on the ocean with a pool, but wasn't able to use it. Also, the top floor air conditioning wasn't working. The agency sent a guy right away to look at it, but he said it would need to be replaced. So we spent a hot couple of days on the top floor. The first and 2nd floor air worked fine, but the bedroom I stayed in (on the top floor) as well as the main living area, was quite hot during the stay. We had to open windows and use fans for airflow. I asked the agency for a partial discount due to these issues, but they still have not gotten back to me about it (3 weeks later). Once those 2 problems are fixed, I'd say the house is very nice. I liked the location, it was clean and spacious. It just seemed the house wasn't quite ready for guests. We also had to go buy a battery for the smoke detector during our stay as it started chirping at us. And we noted several light bulbs were burnt out. I think we were the first renters for the season so things weren't quite ready yet.
The location was great and the house was surface cleaned. Unfortunately it needs a deep clean. The air vents and high ceiling fans were very dirty and one wall actually had dusty fur stuck to it. The furniture ( head boards) were also dirty. The pool was filthy with chairs and buckets laying on the bottom and trying to get to the beach was a task as the steps were waist high covered in sand. It was the second time we stayed at this property and it clear the owners are not maintaining it as screens were torn on the porch and the grill was a rusty mess three floors down. It’s unfortunate as the bedrooms are all perfect for a large gathering.
We enjoyed our time together. The house was nice. My grandfather enjoyed watching the ocean every day. It was very cold while we with there so we were disappointed the fire places didn't work. The house definitely needs some TLC. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves!!
Everything was in working order and in good repair. Sure it's next to a rather quaint older motel but that's of little concern to me and the motel frankly adds a bit of the "old nags head" charm. It's a beachfront property, reasonably priced with plenty of room for our trip of four adults and three children <11yrs. Exceeded or met all of our expectations.
This house is a reasonable choice for anyone needing a very large place (8 BRs! and 7 and 1/2 baths!) or a place to stay with your dogs. It's right on the beach with a good view and also close to stores/restaurants.
There are some things that could be done to this hose to make it a nicer place to stay.
1. More than a few light bulbs are burned out or inoperative or not properly working..
2. The carpet should be cleaned.
3. Several of the window blinds are broken and/or inoperative.
4. A list of the TV channels would have been nice.
5. The shower ceiling is full of mildew.
6. A map of the area with some recommended restaurants would have been a nice touch.
In short, this is a nice house, but it's in need of some TLC.
The ocean view, location (except for the dumpy motel next door), and being able to bring my dog make up for a lot and I really liked the home layout. But beware, this house needs maintenence and there is too much broken stuff to name it all. My back is still sore for the crummy mattress, I hardly slept at all.
