SEMI-OCEANFRONT Hatteras — Lighthouse Rd. — Top Level Renovated for 2025! — When your extended family or forever friends gather at CAROLINA BLISS, you’ll discover an enviable escape that enthralls from each glorious sunrise and sunset to the next. With sweeping oceanside vistas, unobstructed backyard vistas from its perch on a calming duck pond, this 6,700 sq. ft., 10-bedroom/10-full and 2-half-bath home offers both a private enclave and a prime point to launch your Hatteras Island vacation.

Of course, languid beach days, fishing excursions and island explorations will be on the itinerary, but so should days spent by the ground level pool. Settle into a lounge with a good book or in the eight-person hot tub for a relaxing soak. Two gas grilles will certainly inspire some poolside picnics, complemented by refreshment from the adjacent tiki bar. Just inside, discover another wet bar/kitchenette in a recreation area that will delight all ages. There’s a billiards table, a shuffleboard table, and two arcade style games for the competitors among you and a media area with theater-style seating and a sizable Intelligent Roku TV to stream your favorite movies. There’s also a laundry room and half-bath on this level. Completing the ground level are two master bedrooms with ensuite baths: a two-set pyramid bunk room and a room providing a queen and single.

Six more master bedrooms occupy the mid-level, all with private bathrooms and Intelligent Roku TVs including a two-set pyramid bunk room and five king bedrooms, one of which offers an accessible-friendly bathroom. All of the bedrooms have access to the deck for either pool or ocean vistas. A separate office area features a slider to a deck that accepts natural light to enhance a productive remote workstation.

On the third level — accessible by a convenient elevator — the great room’s high ceilings, wood floors and multiple windows infuse the space with a warm casual elegance and natural light. Plentiful and comfortable seating provides an inviting getaway to play games and entertain with a enormous flat screen TV. A cavernous and well-appointed kitchen features granite counters and stainless-steel appliances, including dual fridges and two stoves to accommodate cooking for a crowd. Counter stools surround a breakfast bar, adding additional seating for full-family meals that can be appreciated together around two 10-seat dining tables. Two more roomy master king bedrooms, each with deck access and spectacular ocean vistas, along with a half-bath, complete this level.

Just a few steps up is an upper loft that offers a peaceful getaway to read a book or take in the expansive vistas from the marshlands toward the sound. Whether you're taking in the sweeping oceanside landscape or relaxing sound side, these are the vistas that will leave you in a state of bliss — CAROLINA BLISS — a feeling you can reserve forever by booking it today.

Jimmy's Seafood Buffet

Home of the Crab Leg & Lobster Buffet for 26! years! Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet is a great stop for an all you can eat affordable dinner extravaganza. The buffet offers over 100 different items. It even serves Jumbo Alaskan crab legs and Jumbo steamed shrimp, something you will not find on any other buffet in the OBX. The buffet offers a variety of seafood and non seafood options. Try some of Jimmy’s seafood options and load your plate with blackened tuna, Louisiana crawfish, steamed scallops and mussels, fried oysters and deviled crabs. Not in the mood for seafood? Fill your plate with steak, pineapple glazed ham, fried chicken, BBQ ribs, and fettuccini Alfredo to name a few. The buffet also offers a kid section. Let your kids load their plates with chicken tenders, mac and cheese, and corn dog nuggets. Don’t forget dessert! The buffet also offers soft serve ice cream and a plethora of baked goods. 

 

It’s been 25 years since Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet opened its doors for the first time. Since that inaugural summer, the goal has remained the same: provide customers with a tasty, fresh array of seafood full of Caribbean flavor.

 

Elizabeth Dowless and her husband Jerry had always worked in restaurants in the Outer Banks, so when the opportunity to open Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet with a couple of friends arose, it was an easy yes. The Dowlesses bought out the business in 2003, excited to turn Jimmy’s into an Outer Banks staple. When Jerry passed away later that year, Dowless knew she wanted to continue pursuing their dream on her own.

 

Dowless went all in on the concept of a fresh, flavorful seafood buffet and her hard work paid off. Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet is a beloved fixture of Outer Banks dining, with customers returning year after year for the fresh fare.

 

“Customers keep in contact with me throughout the winter. I get people every day asking me when we’re opening for the season, and customers book their vacations around our opening,” Dowless says. “I absolutely love getting to see familiar faces come back to see us each year. I love seeing them lose their minds over the buffet! Their excitement is what I love most about my job.”
