This was our family’s first visit to the Outer Banks 4 years ago exactly. Coincidentally, we realized while we were driving down on 6/7 that June 7th marked 4 years to the very first day we arrived. We fell in love with OBX on that stay, but the seed to build, or even to buy, had not yet been planted.

How much can change in 4 years? That 5 year old is now a 9 year old, those 12 year old tweens are now 16 year olds looking at colleges. COVID times helped us dare to live in the moment and take leaps of faith I could never have dreamed imaginable just one year prior. We’ve designed and built two luxury vacation rentals, sold one, and are considering building again. A lot can change in 4 years 🙏.

Welcome to Ocean Sands South! Spacious beachside culdesacs and no public or street parking, which means only local traffic and less people on our beach. Ocean Sands A is even fortunate enough to neighbor a half mile of undeveloped beach! I can’t imagine a better place in OBX to call home!

Excited to offer our guests an upgraded linen service in 2023! Through many discussions and deliberations, we’ve worked with Twiddy to arrange off site laundering of all bed quilts and shams on a weekly basis ✨🙌.

I LOVE the crisp look of white bedding… but only when it’s clean 🫧 🫧🫧! Over the course of 2022, I personally washed and replaced countless quilts and shams each time I visited- I couldn’t stand to find bedding that showed any evidence of use, and I’m guessing our guests feel the same. So each time the home is cleaned on turnover days, the cleaning crew will replace all quilts and shams with freshly laundered bedding. Our goal is to continue to improve our guest experience, and we hope this adds value and peace of mind. Sweet dreams 💕

Holiday Greetings from the beautiful gulf coast!

As the sun sets on 2022, it’s nice to take a few moments to enjoy simple pleasures (like beach sunsets 😍) with our little family without the distractions of school, work, sports, and keeping up with our crazy calendar. I’m not gonna lie- It’s been a challenge juggling everything the last few months. There have been many days where I’ve felt in over my head, pulled in every different direction. It feels good to hit the reset button. Cheers to health, peace, prosperity and balance in 2023 🥂✨. And to many, many sunrises and sunsets 🌅 😘.

It’s a Christmas miracle 🌲 ✨ - after nearly a year, our 2nd bistro table finally arrived intact for our built-in breakfast nook. After several failed delivery attempts involving missing or damaged pieces and back-ordered replacement orders, hours and hours of frustrating (unproductive) phone conversations and scheduled delivery windows, I sure hope makes this right. We made it through our entire first rental season with only half of our vision for the space. Can’t wait to see it in person, but it sure looks 👌in the pics 👉…

We held out as long as we could on closing the pool for the season, but sadly the time has come. It was beautiful to look at over Thanksgiving break and some of us (not me 🥶😂) even jumped in a few times. Look forward to pool days returning in the Spring 👙☀️🕶🍹.

Stay warm and enjoy the cozy winter days by the fire!

Thank you to all who have served, especially to my mom who set the best example for me that a woman can do anything and everything 💪🏼💕. Proud to be a part of these 3 generations of strong women and to set that example for my 3 daughters.

As always, my Dad sent me home from my happy place with his heavenly display ❤️🙏😇.                  ❤️❤️❤️

to our first stay in Corolla, Summer 2020, when we really fell in love with the Outer Banks and began seriously considering investing in a vacation rental property here. Our smiles say it all 😊. This home was in Whalehead, where we’re currently building our sea view sister property, . Summer 2023 weeks at Vista Mare are booking quickly! 1 week left in July and 1 left in August! Don’t miss your opportunity to experience the magic of Whalehead ✨✨💕💕.

I left Costa Bella this morning and passed the torch to the Mancuso team to open our doors and welcome our Parade of Home visitors. Such an exciting time!

The sun finally came out and the weather was perfection☀️. I had the pleasure of touring a few beautiful new homes and meeting some lovely people in our business. I could have wandered around for hours just soaking it all in, but Mom duty calls 🙃. More to come, including how to access the virtual tour and how to vote 😊. 1 day down, 2 to go!!

SO excited to participate in the Outer Banks 30th Annual Parade of Homes next week, October 6-8. Wish us luck, or better yet, come out and vote for us 😊🙏. Just to be selected as Mancuso’s entry in this year’s Parade is such an incredible honor and a dream come true. Thanks for following us on this very special journey 🙏💞🥹.

Shuffleboard on the top floor? Comment “yes” or “no” 😊🙏.

Our thought process… we ran out of square footage on the ground floor (5000 sf max on the oceanfront without an auxiliary building); we really wanted a shuffleboard; we felt it would be nice to have a game the whole family could play off the great room while enjoying the views. Thoughts?

Our built-in breakfast nook was intended to have 2 bistro-style round tables. However, only 1 intact table arrived in April. Another failed delivery attempt in August, and we still only had 1 bistro table. While the cozy custom bench is still a lovely place to sit and admire the endless views, I’m hopeful that we’ve finally received the correct missing table and will be able to install it on turn over day with the help of logistics 🤞🙏.

Hope to have some new photos to share after the weekend!

Came across this, a drawing I sent to our builder to give to our architect in January 2021, right after we closed on the Ocean Way lot. Crazy to think how this journey began- an idea💡, a vision, an amateur sketch ✍️.

It’s easy to see now why my Dad loved architecture so much, creating something beautiful out of nothing. If anyone has an interest in architecture and is looking for a gripping read, I highly recommend Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead. I had to read it in high school, and it quickly earned a spot on my nightstand. I must have read it a dozen times. Turns out it was also my Dad’s favorite 😇🥹.
