About this property

Nature Lovers Retreat~ Pool & 7Min Walk to Beach!

Relax and unwind in this exquisite retreat nestled in the heart of nature at Casa Bonita, presented by Salt Coast Hosts.

✓ Saltwater Pool (SEASONAL) with the Stunning Treed Backdrop (and an occasional wild horse sighting!)
✓ Community Amenities: Basketball Courts, a Playground, 2 Community Pools, Community Parking with Beach Access
✓ Fully Equipped Kitchen
✓ Dining Room with Seating for 10
✓ Free Ultra Fast Wi-Fi
✓ Free Parking for 4 Cars
✓ Linens & Towels Included
✓ Outdoor Shower

With a private pool, easy access to the drive-on beach, and a stunning backdrop of the Currituck Banks Coastal Estuarine Reserve, this is the ultimate getaway for nature lovers and beach enthusiasts alike. Immerse yourself in the tranquility of the surrounding wilderness, soak up the sun by the pool, or take a short walk to explore the pristine sandy shores.

At the end of Route 12, where the ocean and dunes prevail, is where the Villages at Ocean Hill lays its claim on the beautiful, sun-kissed beaches of the northern Outer Banks. A community sitting between the serene coast of Currituck Sound and the majesty of the Atlantic Ocean, the Villages at Ocean Hill offers opportunities for family fun, sport, recreation, and sheer relaxation.

Cyclists of all ages and abilities can enjoy the nearly 2-mile stretch of the newly paved bike lane which connects VOH to the shops and community of Corolla Light. And nature lovers will love the serenity of the Currituck Banks National Estuarine Reserve, adjacent to the community, for walking and enjoying the sights and sounds of the maritime forest.

Historic Corolla Village also hosts the Wild Horse Museum, offering memorabilia and souvenirs. All proceeds from the sale of merchandise go directly to protect, preserve, and care for the wild horses.

Just a few minutes north is the entrance to the 4x4 Beach, where you can take a scenic drive on the sand and possibly catch a glimpse of the wild horses grazing on the beach.

Summer getaway

My family had a great time at casa Bonita. It’s a short walk to the beach which made it easy to go back and forth throughout the day. Check in was seamless, we arrived early and were able to get into the house earlier which we really appreciated. The house is stocked with necessary appliances and the pool are was a hit! 10/10 would recommend!

Beautiful home!

This home was clean, spacious and had everything we needed for 3 families. Close walk to the beach, with plenty to do in the development and around town. The kitchen is well-appointed for those who choose to prep meals at home. A nice pool area with a grill, along with several balconies to take in the ocean air makes this home an excellent choice for an outer banks vacation.

Amazing Place

This was probably the best vacation home we have ever rented. The home was comfortable and extremely livable. The home was extremely clean and stocked with every amenity you could possibly need. The location of the property was perfect for our family. We loved the privacy and nature surrounding the home. It was also an easy walk to the beach. I would highly recommend renting this home!

Wonderful OBX home

Our group of 10 had a wonderful experience at Casa Bonita! The property was clean & well maintained, an easy walk to the beach, and it was fully stocked with all of the kitchen/pool/beach supplies you could need. The property owners were very responsive throughout the booking process and our stay. We enjoyed backing up to the nature preserve, and swimming in the private pool. We would love to return!

Excellent stay with family

We had an amazing time at Casa Bonita with three adults and five children. The house was impeccably stocked with perfect amenities, which sustained us throughout the entire week. Upon arrival, we found the house spotless, and the detailed information provided beforehand was incredibly helpful. The linens, beds, and sheets were all hotel quality! The location is great, the neighbors are lovely, and the grounds are beautiful. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

Perfect accommodations!

The house was even more beautiful than the pictures. The absolute perfect accommodations for our group of 10 (including 1 infant and 4 kids). The layout is awesome and the private pool was such a nice touch. Communication with the host was great. We would love to book this house again!

Great Experience!

This host came through for us when we needed it the most. We were extremely disappointed with our first rental upon arriving in the OBX but we found this online and within the hour we were moving our things in! So incredibly accommodating. Upon arrival, this house was clean, fresh & beautiful! Everything you want in an OBX home. Beautiful pool/area, great loungers/patio furniture. You can tell this owner did not cheap out on anything. Comfortable beds, spacious kitchen stocked with {almost} everything we needed. The only thing we could not locate was a wine bottle opener but we made due! The family room was so cozy and fit our group of 6 adults/2 kids very comfortably. We loved being up against the woods because we had ultimate privacy especially because there were only neighbors on one side. The neighborhood was great & felt safe every time I went for a run. The community area/lake was full of turtles - we went to see them almost everyday! The lower level game room with full bath and the storage unit full of NICE beach chairs/gear was a major bonus for us. We would happily stay here again!
