Magic and Enchantment
Your romantic journey deserves romantic accommodations, and because this vacation is just for the two of you, we ensure that you will have your choice of our best. Choose between a romantic hotel room, a spacious suite, or a cozy cottage where love will bloom bright every day of your stay. Even on the gloomiest days, our spaces will be bright and welcoming, inviting young lovers of all ages to come inside, kick off your shoes, and get comfortable. Most of our hotel rooms and suites will provide semiprivate decks that overlook the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, furnished with comfy seats where many moments of quiet peace and magic will occur. Our cottages will share the same views, some offering multiple decks, including one that conveniently will lie outside the master suite, encouraging guests to start every day with a cup of coffee and the sunrise and to end each evening with a glass of wine and the sunset. When the moon rises and the dark skies begin to twinkle with the lights of a billion stars, more quiet moments of appreciation and awe may be intertwined with idle conversations, creating magical memories never to be forgotten.
Your Comfort Is Our Best Reward
We at Lighthouse View share a passion for our little piece of paradise and that passion includes ensuring that everyone who stays with us experiences the most comfortable of vacations. We ourselves have spent too many traveling hours experiencing just the opposite, and it just makes us work harder for the guests we treasure. Living rooms will be anchored by sofas that are plush, comfortable, and inviting, and on rainy days (or upon rare occasions, snowy nights), impromptu naps will sound like a perfectly wonderful idea. Maybe the television mounted to the wall opposite the sofa will be on, the volume low as you watch your favorite basketball player seem to fly through the air for a slam dunk that is pure poetry. Or maybe you will be relaxing with book or eReader in hand, not noticing that your eyes were beginning to flutter shut and the book in your lap has landed softly on the floor beside you. Open concept floor plans of our beach rentals in Hatteras NC ensure that even as you are reading or watching television, your favorite Valentine will be within sight, allowing you to stay connected with just a glance, a comment, or a smile. At night, climbing into the most comfortable beds in the state will ensure that when you wake up every morning both of you will feel refreshed and recharged, ready to start a new day of Valentine adventures on our unspoiled and pristine barrier island of Cape Hatteras.
Amenities for Two
Obviously, no matter how large your traveling party may be, the amenities offered inside our Valentine’s Day in North Carolina will be for everyone, but for today’s purposes, they are all built for two. The community pools will be closed over the winter, it is simply too cold to consider a swim, but the hot tubs are warm and bubbling and waiting for you and your Valentine to submerge yourself in their depths. Wireless internet ensures that if you must work from home, working from OUR homes will encourage you to stay a little longer. Televisions may be found in the bedrooms as well as the living rooms, extra blankets will be provided for those chillier winter nights, and even on chilly evenings you may still want to use the community grills provided, especially after catching bass or redfish, two fish that are plentiful in the winter months (Fish cleaning stations are also an amenity offered at Lighthouse View). Fully equipped kitchens, updated fixtures in the bathrooms, washers and dryers in some spaces, or community ones in others; every attention is paid to the amenities that will make your Valentine’s visit to Cape Hatteras one you will never forget.
Romantic Adventures on Cape Hatteras
Now that you have enjoyed a peek at what you can expect from our Lighthouse View cozy cottages, suites, and hotel rooms, it is time to explore the adventures you can have during your Cape Hatteras Valentine’s Day getaway. Some of the more obvious adventures include sunrise or sunset walks along shore’s edge, creating breakfast in bed for your favorite Valentine, or sharing a quality bottle of champagne over a meal you worked together to make, but if you are willing to go out in public, the winter months are when the white tundra swans return to the Pea Island National Refuge and a walk along the trails that meander through the refuge will give you the opportunity to peek at them. These beautiful creatures mate for life, offering hope to the romantically challenged and helping couples set new goals for their relationships, and are known for fiercely defending their nesting territory during the season, something new parents of human babies will totally understand. Because a romantic meal is always a part of the celebration, Breakwater Restaurant, located at 57878 in Hatteras, is known for its waterfront views and its menu filled with sweet and delicious seafood favorites. Family Jewels, 56910 Highway 12 at Stowe on Twelve Shops, offers beautiful handmade jewelry pieces that will serve as a romantic gift and a reminder of your fabulous weekend of love on Cape Hatteras. Even the colorful beads of each piece are created by hand and if you time your visit right, you may catch the owner creating the colorful pieces of glass, or, once created, you may get to see her create a new piece as you watch.
