Overview Feel the worries and stresses of the "real world" melt away as you step inside the Parade of Homes award-winning Casa Blanca, nestled at the ocean's edge in prestigious Pine Island. Inspired by the kasbahs of Marrakech, this over 7,000 square foot home is perfect for fun-filled getaways with friends or all-ages family vacations, with nine bedrooms and 12 bathrooms. A host of amenities include a gourmet kitchen, theater room, sports bar with arcade games, two hot tubs, high-speed WiFi, and an expansive pool deck with a swimming pool (option to heat), grill, and private beach access. But sometimes, the best thing to do at Casa Blanca is the art of doing nothing: enjoying total relaxation amid the soothing ocean breezes on the numerous outdoor decks and patios. Casa Blanca's ideal location offers unparalleled panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean, the Currituck Sound, and the Audubon Sanctuary just across the way. Spacious yet cozy and luxurious yet unpretentious, Casa Blanca will bring your Moroccan villa fantasy to life and provide the ultimate place to create memories of a lifetime.

Bring a special someone or the whole group out to relax on the private dune deck at the end of the boardwalk and toast the end of another day in paradise.
