About this property

Salty SolMate is a soundside retreat in Kill Devil Hills built for the guests who want more than just a beach house. Steps to Bay Drive sunsets, hot tub, swing beds, hammock, outdoor bar — and in September and October, this is one of the best-kept secrets on the OBX. ✔ Hot Tub & Outdoor Bar ✔ Steps to Bay Drive Sunsets ✔ Free Beach Parking — Hayman Beach ✔ 5-Min Walk to Hayman Park ✔ 10-Min Walk to Front Porch Cafe ✔ Fully Stocked Kitchen ✔ Managed by Salt Coast by Sojourn The space Salty SolMate is the kind of house that surprises you. Guests tell us the pictures don't do it justice — and they're right. Inside and out, every detail has been thought through: memory foam mattresses, Frette towels, Lather soaps, a kitchen stocked for real cooking, complimentary water, and treats on arrival, and an outdoor space designed for lingering long after dinner. The lower carport area is the social hub. Hot tub, outdoor bar, two swing beds, hammock swings, and an outdoor shower. Take a left out of the driveway, and you're two minutes to the Bay Drive gazebo — one of the best sunset walks on the OBX. Take a right, and Hayman Park is one quiet block away. Free beach parking at Hayman Beach is straight across the stop sign at the end of the street - pack the beach gear and go! September and October are genuinely special here. The crowds thin out, the temperatures drop just enough to make the hot tub feel like a destination, and the sunsets on Bay Drive get longer and more dramatic. Even on rainy days — and OBX always has at least one — the covered ground-level carport area keeps everyone entertained. Guests have set up corn hole, kept the kids busy, and stayed completely dry without missing a beat. What our guests say: "We absolutely loved our stay at Sojourn’s! The house was beautiful and super clean. The kitchen was well stocked. We were provided with complimentary water and candies. The beds and bedding were extremely comfortable! The house is in a quiet neighborhood right off the main road, super convenient for all your travel plans on the islands. And lastly, LeAnne, the host, has been super responsive and helpful, lightning fast! We would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking to stay on OBX." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Aibek "Great stay, everything exceeded expectations. Would recommend to anyone looking to stay in the OBX area". ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Oscar "Very clean house. The outdoor shower was convenient. The host provided toiletries. They also gave us stuff for the beach, like a wagon, chairs, and boogie boards. There were many spices and cooking supplies. The lollipops for kids were a nice touch. The family loved it." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Anike "This house was such a treat to stay at. We had two couples and two teens in our crew. So much room, gorgeous accommodations, many places to sit, relax, chat, play games, and a short walk to the sound for gorgeous sunsets. Communication with our hosts was top-notch. We couldn’t recommend this home more!" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Sara ★ SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS – 4 BEDROOMS ♛ Bedroom 1: King-Size Bed (Upper Level) ♛ Bedroom 2: King-Size Bed (Upper Level) ♛ Bedroom 3: Two Twin Beds (Upper Level) ♛ Bedroom 4: King-Size Bed (Lower Level) ✔ High Quality Pillows, Linens, and Sheets ✔ Closets with Hangers ✔ Night Stands with Lamps ★ 2 FULL BATHROOMS & 1 HALF BATH ♛ Bathroom 1: Walk-in Shower - King Bedroom 1 ♛ Bathroom 2: Bath/Shower Combo - Hall Full Bathroom ♛ Bathroom 3: Half Bathroom - King Bedroom 4 ✔ Hair Dryer ✔ Shampoo, Conditioner, and Body Wash ★ LIVING ROOM ✔ 2 Plush Sofas ✔ Bench ✔ Throw Pillows ✔ Coffee Table ✔ Media Stand ✔ Flat Screen With FREE Hulu, Disney+, ESPN+ ✔ Books and Board Games ★ KITCHEN & DINING ✔ Fully equipped for real cooking — cookware, bakeware, knife set, blender, mixer, toaster, drip coffee pot, Keurig, and more.

My friends and I had an absolutely amazing time staying here. Extremely flexible with the days we picked. Very good price for everything that's included. Well stocked kitchen, very clean bathrooms. We all really liked how the house looked in the photos, but as we all walked in we were shocked at how nice the house was. An easy walk to the beach if you're feeling daring to cross a 4 lane road, but a very short car ride over. Host was very responsive and answered all of our questions. We made lots of memories we definitely won't forget.

Me and my friends had such a great time! The place is gorgeous. We loved the hot tub, and how close it was to the sound. The goats were great! Helpful and responded fast. We would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely wonderful place! Perfectly nestled between the sound and the ocean. We loved the privacy of the house and all of the amenities it provided for our whole family. There is more to the eye than even represented and we were frequently pleasantly surprised. Only pitfall was the (lack of good) internet for streaming and tv watching late in the evenings, and while they communicated with us regarding it, we just eventually reconciled the fact that we were on vacation and didn't need it anyway. We would love to go back for a longer stay to experience all that the house, area and OBX has to offer!

The home is amazing! Very clean and updated! Great location; close to food, an amazing walking trail along the sound, and a very friendly feeling neighborhood.
2 dislikes: the internet connection was not suitable! Most days we were unable to watch TV because the connection kept dropping. Because it rained all 4 days of vacation, we were inside a lot! Working from the house was a no-go due to the bad wifi signal.
Also, they are very strict with noise. We had 7 women all over 40 who were enjoying karaoke; and we were notified that we were being too loud. There was no one on either side of us during our stay. We were just trying to make the best of a RAINY vacation.
