This is the perfect spot for both relaxation and exploration—for every member of your family! Embrace outdoor adventures like kayaking, paddleboarding, or fishing excursions mere steps from your front door on the sandy beaches of Hatteras Island. While Mermaid’s Rest provides all the comfort you need, you’re also invited to explore savory seafood dishes at nearby restaurants, locally inspired art and souvenirs at quaint coastal shops, and the area’s rich history by visiting the Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum or climbing the iconic Cape Hatteras Lighthouse for stunning views!
Whether you’re chasing waves, chasing your muse, or simply seeking a peaceful escape, Mermaid’s Rest offers an unforgettable experience for every member of your family—including the ones with paws! Book your stay today and let the magic of Hatteras Island inspire your next great story.
