  • Private vacation home
Welcome to AB Sea Digs, your striking two-bedroom Atlantic Beach hideaway—where coastal simplicity meets comfort just steps from the sea. Located third row from the ocean, this sweet oceanside bungalow is four homes from the beach, with painless access to surf, sand, and sunshine on North Carolina’s beloved Crystal Coast.

Location & Vibe
Atlantic Beach is one of those rare places that’s as unspoiled as it is handsome. The beaches remain pristine, the ocean sparkles with the sun, and the vibe stays effortlessly casual—no high-rises, no hordes, just salt air and southern appeal. Spend your mornings walking the shoreline in search of seashells, and your evenings watching the sunset blaze across the horizon.

The Space
Modest but roomy, this coastal bungalow is thoughtfully designed for simple beach living.
Bedroom 1: Queen bed
Bedroom 2: Twin daybed with trundle
Bathroom: Walk-in shower

The open-concept living area and kitchen make it simple to prepare, connect, and relax—whether you’re whipping up breakfast before a day in the surf or winding down with a coastal drink in hand.

Outdoor Living
Step outside and embrace the laid-back Atlantic Beach lifestyle. The home comes equipped with patio seating, a charcoal grille, an outdoor shower, and a shed supplied with beach essentials—chairs, toys, and a wagon to haul it all just a fast walk to the shore. Appreciate peaceful mornings, festive cookouts, and comfortable nights beneath the stars.

Walkable Fun & Local Attractions
You’re ideally positioned to discover the best of the Crystal Coast—from ice cream stores, local stores, and beach bars to Fort Macon State Park, the North Carolina Aquarium, and spectacular boat cruises that showcase the area’s wild horses and dolphins. Atlantic Beach offers the best of both worlds: modest-town charm and plenty to do.

Why Guests Appreciate It
Prime walk-to-beach location (3rd row!)
Bright, clean, modern beach interiors
Family-friendly layout
Outdoor grille & outfitted beach gear
Outdoor shower for rinsing salt and sand off with ease
Close to eateries, stores & attractions

Whether you’re planning a charming weekend, a modest family vacation, or a quick hideaway with friends, AB Sea Digs invites you to relax, recharge, and experience the simple joy of the Crystal Coast.

Animals: please confirm prior to booking if you plan to bring a pet. Dogs must be pre-approved. Thank you!
Important to Know

After booking, guests are required to complete a simple rental agreement through Away by the Sea. The agreement outlines home rules, property details, and local requirements to help ensure a smooth and enchanting stay.

House Rules

• Keep it cozy, not crazy! We ask that there be no events or huge gatherings to ensure a calming stay for everybody.

• Quiet time is 11pm to 9am — please help us keep things peaceful for our neighbors and fellow beach lovers!

• Please let us know right away if anything is amiss so we can get it handled for you quickly. Text is best!

• Furry friends are welcome once approved. But please keep family pets off the furnishings so we can maintain a fresh, clean space for all guests.

• Backyard etiquette: Kindly clean up after your pet so the outdoor space stays fun for everybody.

• Towel Care: Please do not use the white bath towels, hand towels, or washcloths to remove makeup, self-tanner, hair dye, or clean up spills or messes. Black makeup towels are supplied specifically for makeup removal. Damaged or permanently stained towels may result in replacement charges.

• Grille Use: You’re welcome to appreciate the grille during your stay! Please leave it in the same condition you found it—cleaned and brushed after use. A $25 cleaning fee may be applied if additional cleaning is required.

• Starter kit included with essential items for your arrival.

• Minimum age to book is 25 years old.

TRASH & RECYCLING

Before checkout, please take all trash and recycling to the curb according to the collection schedule and instructions posted on the refrigerator.

If trash and recycling are not placed at the curb as directed, a $50 fee will be charged to cover the additional trip required for disposal.

Thank you for helping us keep the home guest-ready!
