Our ocean front deck is the perfect spot to watch the sunrise over the Atlantic surf, wave hi to the dolphins at play and pelicans flying by or to idle the day away. Bring your binoculars or use ours for close ups of the dolphins, pelicans, loons, sandpipers, seagulls etc. We have completely renovated the unit making it one of the brand new interiors in the complex.

WaveHi! offers a master bedroom with a queen-sized bed, brand new two full baths (super convenient for a family), brand new comfortable full-sized sofa bed, hallway twin XL reading nook/berth bed, new fully appointed stainless and Silestone kitchen, two flat screen TVs (living room and master bedroom), DVD player/movie library, free WiFi, beach chairs and umbrella, programmable coffee maker, hair dryer, iron/ironing board, new HVAC system, new convection oven, microwave, super quiet new dishwasher, stainless appliances, Keurig Coffee machine, high-end quiet ceiling fans, keyless entry system, and much more.

Note: Linens and towels are NOT included in our rental, but can be rented by guests directly with a linen rental company to help guests keep their costs down. Or guests may bring their own linens and towels. Pillows, blankets and quilts are provided.

Our beach-- only steps away from our condo -- features coastal dunes, soft creamy sand, nice surf and great beach combing. We have beach chairs and boogie boards for your use during your visit.

In addition to our beach front, our condo community has an outdoor pool (unheated), outdoor grills, basketball and tennis courts, pool side restrooms, and oceanfront showers, ocean front gazebos, and coin operated laundry facilities.

Solo trip for Relaxation

Wanted to get away on the beach and relax and explore OBX as it was on my bucket list. This place was perfect for just that. I did get my exercise climbing all the stairs to the top level. But the top is always the best! Very well decorated, such a cute beach vibe and very comfortable, the bed was comfortable as well.

Awesome property!

The unit was a perfect spot for a small group. Very cute on the inside and the best view you could ask for of the ocean. We went at the perfect time of year (May): quiet, few people, and great beach weather. The condo was well stocked, and the owners responded to my pre-trip queries quickly. We hope to come back!

Best Location!

It was our second stay at Wave-Hi and as usual amazing!!!! We watched the sunrise in the mornings and walked to the end of the street for sunsets over the sound! Even caught a moonrise! We can’t wait to come back next year! The owners communication is stellar. They noticed the day before our arrival was open and let us know. We paid for the extra day and it was fabulous! Can’t wait to return next year! Oh,and went up to Carova and saw the horse on the beach!!!!!

About the host

Hosted by M & M Hayward

Host profile image
We have been coming to Duck for almost two decades to vacation. Each time we were here we would fantasize about owning a little something of this wonderful island to enjoy whenever we could. Finally, we took the plunge and now own WaveHi!, Dune Nest and Dolphin Dawn (all in the same lovely Colony by the Sea). They are just the right size and are our little places to escape to when the pressures of real life get to us. We hope you too will find that peace of mind and sense of rejuvenation that we get each time we come back to Duck. We look forward to sharing it with you! We hope you will select WaveHi! or one of our other condos as your vacation rental and help us with providing great reviews to share with future vacationers.

Why they chose this property

WaveHi! is located right on the ocean on one of the most beautiful east coast beaches in the U.S. It has the best view for year round beach front enjoyment! Spectacular sunrises and moonrises greet you daily! We have worked hard to provide a completely new, comfortable place to relax with many details we enjoy for our own comfort and wind down time. The town of Duck is a quaint coastal village with super friendly folk and wonderful shopping, dining and many fun things to do. You can rent kayaks, canoes, bikes, tandem bikes, tc. to enjoy the many water activities Duck has to offer. We love it here and come all the time.

What makes this property unique

Our favorite thing about WaveHi! is the oceanfront location and view. When you step out on the deck the sight and sound of the waves is the most magical thing in the world. Lounging on the deck we enjoy watching the sunrise, seeing the dolphins play, and pelicans fly by while sipping our coffee. Evenings bring the colors of the sunset across the eastern Atlantic sky and moonrises that are spectacular. It's a great backdrop for a glass of wine to wind down from a day of total relaxation. Perfect.
