Escape to Ships Watch, the perfect Outer Banks getaway where classic beach house charm meets the amenities of modern comfort. Located in Ocean Sands, Ships Watch is just 85 yards from the beach access and one of the most peaceful, uncrowded stretches of shoreline in Corolla. This spacious retreat offers the kind of calming coastal experience families and friends dream about.
Wake up to spectacular sunrises over the dunes and spend your days enjoying wide open beaches. Your evening dinner is sure to be memorable with breathtaking sunsets views from the top level deck that overlooks an expansive undeveloped nature area with endless skies. Whether you are sipping coffee in the morning breeze while listening to the crashing waves or relaxing under the stars at night, the views and sounds here are unforgettable.
Inside, you’ll find all the charm of a traditional Outer Banks beach house thoughtfully updated with modern amenities for a comfortable stay. Ships Watch features a fully equipped kitchen, ready for everything from pancake breakfasts to seafood feasts, and plenty of space to gather, relax, and reconnect. Dining and grocery stores are less than 1 mile away.
Outside, enjoy your own private pool and a fabulous hot tub perfect for unwinding after a day at the beach. Basketball, pickleball rackets and balls are available for guests to use at the community tennis court. Beach chairs provided for 8.
