Are you into boating? Fishing? Cooking? Relaxing by the pool with a refreshing drink? Come let the stress melt away in this magical 5 bedroom, 4.5 bath home located on the water in the tucked away, upscale Peninsula community of Manteo, the best kept secret in the OBX!
This incredible home is just minutes away from the beach and offers a private pool and private pier for docking your boat or fishing without even leaving the property!

Pool Open: 5/1/2025

Blessed by the Bay sleeps 11 and is situated on a canal that leads directly into the Roanoke Sound. This home is ideally located just across the bridge from Nags Head and is just minutes from the beach, Jennette's Pier, Roanoke Island Festival Park, the North Carolina Aquarium, and so much more!
On the top level, you will find an open concept floor plan with 360-degree views. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare your perfect family meal, including a massive island with granite countertops. The spacious and cozy living room is the perfect place to settle in for a good conversation or to watch your favorite movie on the flat-screen TV. When the day is done, head out onto the back deck to enjoy spectacular OBX sunsets that are second to none!
On the second level, you will find a King En-Suite Bedroom and a Queen En-Suite Bedroom, both with direct access to the second-level deck. A 3rd bedroom includes a pyramid bunk bed with a twin top bunk and a full-size bottom bunk, and the 4th bedroom boasts an elegant Queen poster bed. A jack-and-jill bathroom separates the bunk room and additional queen bedroom. Each bedroom on this level is equipped with its own smart tv.

On the ground level, you will find a Queen bedroom with its own TV and adjacent semi-private full bathroom. This level is also where you will find the game room, which has a ping pong table and seating for spectators to watch the fun or to stream their favorite shows on the flat screen tv. Step outside the sliding door to enjoy a relaxing afternoon in the OBX sunshine lounging by the pool and grilling your favorite meals.
Play board games and do puzzles (located in cabinets on the top level and ground level) with family and friends. Head to the beach and enjoy the sand and sun. Rent kayaks, jet skis, paddle boards or 4x4s. Take a tour to watch dolphins play, fly kites at Jockey's Ridge or check out the wealth of local history. Or skip the activities and enjoy relaxing days in a beautiful home close to everything but secluded enough to allow you to escape the hustle and bustle. This home offers the perfect balance of everything you could want while on vacation. Come and create lifelong Outer Banks memories at Blessed by the Bay!

Family Trip

We gathered in Manteo for a family wedding and this home was perfect for our large group of grown kids from across the county. The pool was fantastic with lots of seating. And we enjoyed some ping pong and other fun games Lisa was incredibly responsive and helpful

Relaxing

We had a family wedding to attend over the weekend and were so happy to make an extended stay of it. We appreciated the four night stay, the convenience of the location and the spaciousness of the home. It made for a most relaxing getaway with plenty of options for those that wanted more activity. We appreciated the quick response to our questions/needs. What quick resolution too. We would recommend and stay again ourselves.

Nice relaxing week

Great place to unwind and relax! The house was stocked with anything we could need. It was clean and beautiful. The neighbors were friendly and welcoming. It was close to a lot of good restaurants on the island and right off the island. Only small gripe was the proximity to a beach and the small pool. Other than that it was near perfect.

Perfect blend of convenience, comfort, and family-friendly activities.

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the rental property. The house was both beautiful and impeccably clean. While we encountered some initial difficulties with the WiFi—specifically, the password provided in the home's information and via email didn’t function—we managed to resolve this issue by using the password found on the router. The kitchen was well-equipped, allowing us to prepare most of our meals comfortably, and the outdoor gas grill was a welcome addition. However, be advised that a few of the beds were quite firm; those who prefer a softer mattress may consider bringing a mattress pad for added comfort. For families, there is no shortage of activities to keep children entertained. Our kids particularly enjoyed the pool and the ping-pong table. The property also came with a crab trap, allowing us to engage in catch-and-release crabbing off the dock—an activity that was both fun and educational. Additionally, we rented a two-person kayak and took full advantage of the nearby waterways. The location of the property is ideal, with all amenities and attractions a mere 10 to 15 minutes away. One of our favorite outings was to Coquina Beach, which is about 15 minutes from the house. The beach offered conveniences such as bathrooms and on-site lifeguards and was pleasantly uncrowded during our visits. In the evenings, we would often venture to Nags Head, less than 10 minutes away, for miniature golfing, go-karting, or shopping.
