Hilton Vacation Club Beachwoods Kitty Hawk

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place to stay. The walls are a little thin. Could hear neighbors clearly. Beds are comfy."

Ocean Pines Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We booked Ocean Pines last minute since the road to our original reservation in Hatteras was closed. We stayed at one of the ocean front condos and were really impressed with the deal. The condo was right on the beach with a beautiful view of the ocean. Note that we were on the 3rd floor. The dune probably blocks the ocean view on the 1st and 2nd floors. The condo was very spacious and came with a full compliment of supplies for cooking and eating. The TV was a bit small but manageable. And everyone we met that worked there were incredibly friendly and helpful. The only slight downside was that the decor is a bit dated, but for the price it was an incredible deal. Would definitely stay again."

10/10 Excellent

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great place to stay for two people! Good location in the middle of the Outer Banks. Easy walk to the beach and close to many restaurants. It’s hard to find this small of a place anywhere in the Outer Banks!"

Private Waterfront Retreat: Escape the Crowds. Reconnect with Nature - Grandy

10/10 Excellent

"I was in Grandy doing a project for Currituck County and didn't want the inconvenience of 60 miles a day to and from hotels, so I looked for a VROB and to my amazement I found the Currituck Cottage and wow what a place to have peaceful and beautiful sunrises and sunsets with views of the sound and wildlife it was fantastic. The inside was even more spacious and beautiful than most we go to , the kitchen has all the needs for a gourmet meal at home. Robert was so easy to communicate with and just a great time when not at work cant wait to return."

8/10 Good

"The house was clean with plenty of space for our family of 8. It is a little weather worn but to be expected with location. I would not recommend the house if you are looking for a place for young children to play on the beach. There is plenty of beach space but only if you aren't considering the auto traffic. However this was our first trip to Corolla and the Nor'easter was just off the coast. That may be the reason for the tide being high at our location all of the time. There are great views of the ocean from this house with a very tranquil vibe"

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Buck Island?

The best time to go to Buck Island is during the shoulder seasons of April to May and September to October, or even during the winter months from November to March.

For those looking for pleasant weather without the peak summer crowds, April to May offers warm temperatures and fewer people. Similarly, September and October provide a lovely experience with the ocean still warm enough for swimming, and the island returning to a more relaxed pace after the summer rush. These months are ideal for couples seeking a peaceful getaway and families who prefer a quieter holiday experience.

If your priority is escaping colder climates and enjoying consistent sunshine, the winter months from November to March are excellent. The weather is generally mild and sunny, superb for enjoying the beaches and outdoor activities without excessive heat.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Buck Island hotel for you.

How much is the nightly rate at a Buck Island hotel?

Hotel prices in Buck Island often vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. Different factors affect nightly hotel rates, such as the time of year or the days of the week you want to book. To find the best deals for your stay, be flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
