SBC203: Seas the Bay

Take Carpe Diem to the next level at Seas the Bay, an impeccably maintained condo in the exclusive Shallowbag Bay Club. When you arrive, skip the stairs and use the building elevator to send up your luggage and groceries. You'll enter into a comfortably furnished, open-concept great room that includes a wet bar and access to a covered deck overlooking the marina. Hardwood floors and tile flow throughout this entire unit, even in the bedrooms - you won't find any carpet here! Get dinner started in the kitchen with plenty of prep space and stainless steel GE Profile appliances, including a double oven. The dining area leads out to a screened porch that connects to a deck accessed by the two secondary bedrooms. The primary suite provides access to the canalfront deck and includes a spacious private bath with jetted tub and separate shower.

Shallowbag Bay Club is a quaint boating community situated along Roanoke Island's Scarborough Creek. The full service marina offers fishing charters and boat slips (please contact the Dockmaster in advance to make arrangements if bringing a boat). Additional on-site amenities include an outdoor pool, fitness center, grill, fish cleaning station, and a clubhouse with pool table. In the evenings, stroll along the boardwalk and out to the boat docks where you'll find a front-row seat for watching the spectacular sunsets. You won't have to go far for great food and drinks, since the waterfront restaurant Stripers Bar and Grille is conveniently located on the first floor of the same building.

Be sure to set aside a day or two to explore Downtown Manteo, truly a hidden gem of the Outer Banks. Browse an eclectic array of unique, locally owned businesses including boutiques, galleries and eateries. Walk to the Roanoke Marshes Lighthouse for a trip back in time, or cross the bridge over to Roanoke Island Festival Park where you'll find The Pavilion Outdoor Theatre, a live-entertainment venue with lawn-style amphitheater seating that hosts concerts and festivals throughout the year. When you're ready to hit the beach, you'll be just a quick ten-minute drive over the bridge to the Nags Head public accesses with free parking.
