SWEET WATER SUITE! Perfect Couples Retreat Pet Friendly

RELAX AND RECHARGE AT “SWEET WATER SUITE!" This shabby chic studio apartment is huge, bright, spacious, very private and located inside this beautiful home! This lovely unit is set up similar to a duplex apartment with the studio apartment as one of the two units located inside the building.

This premier Outer Banks Vacation Rental is centrally located in the heart of OBX. This cozy unit is located on the second level, on the harbor side of the building, has wonderful canal front views, and is PERFECT FOR COUPLES! Pet Friendly as well. The development it is located in is "Colington Harbor" a resort boating community that has everything. There is a sound side beach with awesome sunsets, boat launch (may be small charge). Enjoy mornings at the ocean and afternoons on our bayside beach. This summers Yacht Club Schedule is showing Wednesday sails at 6:00pm, other events take place on various days. Colington community sound side beach is a great place to chill almost any time! Groups of party boats can frequently be seen anchoring just off shore. We have found Saturdays between 5:00 and 7:00 to be a great time to enjoy watching some of the neighborhood’s beautiful sailing vessels as the go in and out. Stay just a little while longer and catch one of our beautiful sunsets before returning home for the evening!

Our shabby chic suite, contains a wonderfully comfortable king sized bed with great linens and six standard pillows, an entertainment center with small flat screen T.V., a cute kitchenette equipped with everything you might need, cozy dining area, and plush living area in the same room. In addition, it has a huge luxurious bathroom and two walk in closets. The suite entrance leads directly to a rather large deck, which is divided in half by two large privacy planters. This allows our guests to have a cozy outdoor area complete with your own chase lounge chairs, dining set, and a gas grill. The lower deck and grounds are a shared space. The lower deck also has a table chairs, bench swing, and hammock. In the yard there is a fire pit guests are welcome to use (please supply your own wood). There is also an outside shower located next to the lower deck for returns from the beach, and a clothesline located under the deck as well for drying bathing suits and beach towels. In addition the home features a recreation closet in the front for our guest which includes, two bikes, two beach chairs, two inner tubes (inner tubes are for sound beach use ONLY), and a cooler!

Answers to the most commonly asked questions?

1. Will I have the place to myself, where are you located?

We the owners/caretakers live in an apartment directly next door. The owners unit contains a large living room, which is located directly next to your apartment, which the owners use only to access the rest of their home. This helps serve as a sound buffer between the two units. If you are the type of person who enjoys a great B&B. and don’t mind the possibility of running into an occasional friendly face, you will appreciate this living arrangement. There is no breakfast included, but there is a little more privacy.

2. I am not sure about your pet policy . . . is it ok . . .?

We allow up to two, well-behaved dogs, with responsible pet owners for a fee of $75.00. Pet owners are of course responsible for any and all damage incurred by your dog. Please do not bring a puppy or dog that may chew or scratch on things . . . remember if they damage something . . . it will be replaced at your expense. Dogs are not to be left unaccompanied on the deck or on the grounds. Be advised, certain breeds, may jump in after a duck or something, and the property does not have a ramp for you to get them out safely.

3) May I dock my boat at your home? No, for liability reasons we do not allow boats to dock at our home. The home does feature a brand new bulk head and dock.

4) What is a studio apartment? - A studio apartment, also known as a studio flat, a self-contained apartment, efficiency apartment, bed-sitter or bachelor apartment, is a small apartment in which the normal functions of a number of rooms – often the living room, bedroom, and kitchen – are combined into a single room.

5)Insurance - We highly recommend vacation insurance to every guest, it is affordable and gives you peace of mind should cancelation be necessary.

Place was very nice. The only things that would have made it better would have been to have a washer and dryer and more towels, and maybe a dishwasher.

Quiet and close
The property was close to every thing but was still quiet. It was in a residential area but still just a short drive to everything we wanted to do. The place was clean. The community pool was just a short drive away and was very nice. There is a park adjacent to the pool which was great for watching the sunset.

Much Needed Vacation
This was the perfect place for my husband and I to get away for a few days. Everything is fairly close and the property owners were extremely thorough. We were never bored and felt very restful by the end of the trip. Would definitely book this property again

35th Anniversary trip
We usually rent a house for our vacations because our kids come with us and we don't like the noise that comes with a hotel. This trip was just the two of us and it didn't make sense to rent a whole house. I wanted to sleep so a hotel was not an option. This property was perfect. It was beautiful and spacious. I usually have a hard time sleeping, but I got a good night sleep each night on this very comfortable bed. The shower was gorgeous, I want to put one like this in my house. There were two walk in closets. They were more like dressing rooms. I was able to blow dry my hair and put on my make up in this room so I didn't take extra time in the bathroom. The deck right over the water was very nice and comfortable. We also really enjoyed the private beach and pool. They were never too crowded and the water was much warmer than the ocean. We will definitely stay here again!

Paradise at the OBX
The location was central to anything and everything at the OBX. The room was very spacious, the bathroom was more like a bathhouse and you had a deck view of the harbor. Our stay was a 10. Makes me want to live at the OBX.

Relaxing Time
What a fabulous short stay we had on our way back to Raleigh! The studio apt was perfect for my husband, daughter and I (along with our little dog). Every accommodation was made. Comfortable beds, beautiful view, good location. We enjoyed a quite night in sitting in the deck grilling some great steaks after spending the day at their community beach area on the Sound. We would definitely book this property again. The owners respected our privacy and we really enjoyed the special touches like fresh flowers, relaxing aromatherapy diffuser and even dog treats for our dog!

Beautiful Suite on a quiet street
We had a very relaxing week. The suite was far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the beach crowd and was very quiet. Ed and Leslie were most helpful with suggestions of what to do.

A slice of luxury
This is truly a beautiful retreat. Very spacious and clean. I traveled with my teenage daughter and her friend and there was plenty of room to spread out. The owners set up two complete twin beds not cots. Beds were very comfortable. There are 2 huge walk-in closets to keep your stuff out of the way. The bathroom is a luxurious spa. The kitchenette has everything that you need. There is a large pool and beach on the bay in the development to watch beautiful sunsets. The owners are very nice and not intrusive in any way. I can’t wait for my next stay.
