Mornings at Kildare start with salty air, coffee on the porch, and the sound of waves just down the street. This classic Duck beach box has been completely refreshed for 2026, with new paint throughout, new flooring, brand-new bathrooms, and a recently updated kitchen that feels clean, bright, and ready for slow breakfasts before the beach. Stay tuned for updated photos, coming soon!

By mid-morning, towels are slung over shoulders and you’re heading just 260 feet to the beach - close enough that forgotten sunscreen isn’t a crisis. When the day winds down, the sound is waiting too, only about 1,200 feet away, offering calm waters and unforgettable sunset skies.

Back at the house, everyone has space to unwind. Two king bedrooms and a third bedroom with a queen and a twin make evenings easy, and every bedroom has new furniture, new mattresses, and a smart TV for winding down after a sun-filled day. After showers in the brand-new bathrooms, slip into the private hot tub and let the day melt away under the stars.

As evening settles in, gather outside for s’mores around the fire pit, with plenty of seating for stories, laughter, and planning tomorrow’s adventure. The open porch is perfect for relaxing while the kids play, and the laid-back rhythm of Duck sets the tone for every moment.

When you’re ready to explore, the Duck Town Boardwalk is just minutes away, lined with local shops, waterfront restaurants, and seasonal events that capture the charm of the Outer Banks. Head north for a beach drive in Corolla, or stay close and enjoy everything Duck has to offer at your own pace.

Kildare is dog-friendly (dogs only; no cats, please) and may accept mini-stays, making it a great choice for long weekends or spontaneous Outer Banks escapes.

From beach days and soundside sunsets to quiet nights under the stars, Kildare is the kind of place families return to year after year, because it simply feels like vacation!

Real Guest Experiences

can hear the ocean waves at this property!

Submitted on 2023-09-11 by Joyce H., Rochester, NY
Literally a 2 minute walk to the beach, you can hear the ocean waves at the property! Loved this house, huge front porch with plenty of seating to look at the beautiful views. Very quiet, peaceful street. Loved access to the sound just a short walk away to enjoy the sunset .The outdoor shower was large with plenty of hooks for clothes and towels, appreciated the clotheslines with clothespins on the garage level so we did not have to drape our beach towels and swimsuits on the railings to dry. The furniture was comfortable, loved the dining table and chairs. Plenty of storage for clothes. Lovely up to date bathrooms and kitchen. Everything there you could need was in the kitchen. Loved that Sun Realty provided dish, dishwasher, laundry soap, a sponge, and paper towel roll, also a few rolls of t.p.! Much appreciated.

We love Kildare!

We love Kildare! It is a great little home close to the beach. We love the location & that it has everything you need, no clutter! The kitchen had nice items. We loved how it was all labeled so we could find & return them. We all slept really well on the doubles & queens.

Great house! Comfortable home and nicely updated. Easy walk to beach, on quiet road. I liked the labels in the kitchen. It was very helpful to know where to put items back. All beds and sofas are very comfortable

The size of the house was perfect for my husband and I. We loved how close it was to the beach.

cozy, clean, perfect location

Submitted on 2021-10-04 by Craig F.
This was a lovely little house just right for our small family. Very cozy clean has a perfect location and a distance to the beach even the facade color was so nice and cheerful. Friendly local neighbors. Kitchen and a bigger bathroom were nicely renovated although the smaller bathroom could be renovated as well. Overall we feel we made a good choice the price was right and would love to rent it again. As a matter of fact we wouldn’t mind at all owning this house!

feels like home

Submitted on 2021-08-06 by Trina K.
