The Space:
Whale with My Soul was made for the trips that take months to plan. Three-generation family vacations, milestone birthdays, reunion weeks — this house handles it all without anyone feeling squeezed. Nine bedrooms across multiple levels, a top-floor king suite with ocean views, a bunk room floor for the kids, and a lower-level setup that functions as a completely separate hangout space with its own living room, wet bar, and Keurig.
The outdoor space is where this house really earns its keep. The private pool and cabana bar, with its bar stools, is the center of gravity for the group. Add a hot tub, a full sand volleyball court, a basketball hoop, a propane grill, and a roof deck with unobstructed ocean views, and there's genuinely no reason to leave. Beach chairs, a wagon, and beach toys are stocked in the closet — no need to bring your own.
The beach is a 3-minute walk via Albacore access. Perfectly located between the beach and a grocery store, with restaurants, shops, and family-friendly attractions a short drive away. Whalehead Brewery and Big Bucks Ice Cream are just a short walk!
And yes — Whale with My Soul is now pet-friendly. Up to 2 dogs welcome, $250 per pet, per week fee
What our guests are saying about Whale With My Soul:
"Our 3-generation, 18-member family vacation week was perfect. The house had ample room to be together, as well as spaces for quiet alone time. The volleyball court, pool table, hot tub, and pool were enjoyed by all. 809 Whalehead Drive far exceeded expectations for our OBX vacation week." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"We had a family of 19 and every last guest had somewhere to sleep. The house looked exactly like the picture. The host was very nice and responded very quickly!" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"The house was even better than the photos! The hosts were very fast with responding (within 10 minutes), and every amenity was as promised." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"Our family and friends LOVED this house. It's perfectly located between the beach and a grocery store. The pool area was fantastic, and we loved that the entire house could easily access the back decks to enter the pool." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
