Village Realty earns top honors as the Best Vacation Rental and Property Management Company on the Outer Banks. Learn what the community's vote says about their service, growth, and the experience guests and homeowners can expect.
The Outer Banks has spoken. In the latest Best of the Beach awards, Village Realty took home two major titles: Best Vacation Rental Company and Best Property Management Company.
It is the second year in a row the team topped the property-management category, and the recognition feels especially meaningful in a region with twenty-two competing companies stretching from Carova to Ocracoke.
It is a proud moment, of course, but also a simple reminder of why travelers and homeowners keep coming back: dependable service, a local team that knows the coastline inside out, and a genuine belief that great vacations start with a well-cared-for home.

1. A Snapshot of Why the Community Voted for Village Realty
Village Realty's win reflects a mix of trust, consistency, and the kind of small, thoughtful details that make a vacation feel effortless.
It also follows a year of internal improvements. The company reshaped its owner-relations structure to make communication easier, support faster, and property care more personalized. That approach helped the program grow to more than seven hundred homes by November 2019.
It is the kind of progress that homeowners notice and guests feel, even if they do not see all the behind-the-scenes work that keeps things running smoothly.
2. Partner Properties That Also Stood Out
The good news continues. Village Realty's partner brands picked up honors of their own, cementing a strong showing across the OBX hospitality scene.
The Castle Bed and Breakfast earned first place for Best Bed and Breakfast, with First Colony Inn close behind in second. See Sea Motel collected second place for Best Hotel, rounding out a list that reflects both charm and reliability across each property.
It is a reminder that good hospitality is rarely an accident. It takes care, consistency, and a team that enjoys what they do.
3. What Guests Can Expect From an Award-Winning Program
A stay with Village Realty tends to feel easy from the moment you arrive. Keyless entry sets the tone, beds are already made, and linens and towels are ready inside the home. The company's more than seven hundred rentals stretch across Corolla, Kill Devil Hills, Nags Head, and South Nags Head, giving travelers plenty of options across OBX's most beloved beaches.
The idea is simple: less fuss, more vacation. Guests can settle in quickly and spend more time beachcombing, exploring wildlife refuges, or hunting down their favorite local seafood spots.
4. Why This Recognition Matters for Homeowners
For homeowners, the award signals stability and strong performance. The company's continued growth shows that its approach resonates with the community. A well-managed home attracts repeat guests, performs better over time, and stays in excellent condition thanks to attentive care and communication.
In a market as competitive as the Outer Banks, public recognition from local voters feels like a nod to those everyday efforts that do not always make headlines but matter deeply to owners.
