Resort Highlights

The oceanfront Golden Strand is a family-friendly condominium on North Carolina's legendary Outer Banks. Beloved for its prime location, sun-worshipping guests will wrestle with whether to spend their days on the broad expanse of white sand beach or stake their claim to a lounge chair by the well-maintained swimming pool. The youngest guests will enjoy their own children's pool and colorful new playground. Watching the sun rise, spotting dolphins along the shoreline, fishing and long beach strolls are among the favorite activities at this low-key property.

Destination Highlights

Located on the North Carolina's Outer Banks barrier islands, Kill Devil Hills is a popular family vacation destination with a celebrated history. Though nearby Kitty Hawk is regularly cited as the location of the Wilbur and Orville Wright's first flight in 1903, the flights occurred in Kill Devil Hills. The town's unusual name dates back to Colonial times when rum-carrying ships ran aground just offshore and locals would scavenge the cargo and hide it in the sand dunes. It was said the rum was strong enough to 'kill the devil.'The Wright Brothers National Memorial is a popular attraction.

Unit Highlights

The Golden Strand's two-and three-bedroom condominiums accommodate up to eight guests in spacious, well-furnished air-conditioned units. All units have nicely equipped kitchens with full refrigerators, microwave ovens and dishwashers, and attractive dining areas. Many living areas have sliding glass doors that open to balconies with spectacular views of the shimmering Atlantic Ocean, close enough to hear the soothing sounds of the sea while drifting off to sleep. Carpeting keeps floor surfaces comfortable for the youngest guests. All units have telephones and color televisions.
