About Us

At KEES Vacations, we've revolutionized the traditional Outer Banks rental experience. Since 2015, we've been dedicated to offering more than just a place to stay; we provide flexible, personalized vacations that fit your schedule and lifestyle. We understand that today's travelers need freedom, which is why we pioneered FlexStay™ on the Outer Banks. This means you can book partial or full-week stays with flexible check-in and check-out dates, allowing you to truly relax and enjoy your time without rigid schedules.

Beyond flexibility, every KEES rental comes with our signature amenities, including convenient self-check-in and freshly made beds, ensuring a seamless and comfortable arrival. We proudly manage over 300+ vacation rental properties from Corolla to Hatteras Island, earning the trust of happy homeowners and thousands of satisfied guests. Our commitment is simple: provide quality accommodations for all guests while delivering expert, communication-first care to our owners.

Our success is rooted in our people. At KEES, we're passionate about cultivating leaders from within. Many of our staff members advance through the company, seizing ample opportunities to grow, learn, and take on leadership roles. This commitment to internal development fosters a dedicated, knowledgeable team deeply invested in your satisfaction.

Ample leadership opportunities to grow and learn

We proudly collaborate with key local organizations to enhance the Outer Banks experience for everyone. Our strong relationships with the Outer Banks Tourism Bureau, Outerbanks.com, and OuterBanksThisWeek ensure that visitors receive the most current and comprehensive information about everything the area has to offer, from hidden gems to must-see attractions. We also value our relationship with the Island Free Press, a vital local news source that keeps us, and you, connected to the pulse of Hatteras Island. We work hand-in-hand to promote the beauty and unique appeal of the OBX.

As a team, we have pledged the Outer Banks Promise, a destination pledge that encourages responsible behavior and deep respect for our local culture and natural environment. The Promise inspires everyone to take small but meaningful steps to protect this special place for future generations.

For those dreaming of a special celebration, our partnership with the Outer Banks Wedding Association helps connect couples with the perfect accommodations and resources for their big day, making destination weddings seamless and memorable. We're proud to be actively involved with Live from OBX, an incredible platform that showcases the rich talent and diverse voices of our local music scene. By supporting Live from OBX, we help amplify the unique cultural heartbeat of the Outer Banks, bringing joy and connection through local artistry.

KEES Vacations is also a dedicated supporter of OBX Pridefest, an event that celebrates diversity, inclusion, and the spirit of community for all. We believe in fostering an environment where everyone feels welcome and celebrated, and our involvement with OBX Pridefest reflects our commitment to a truly inclusive Outer Banks for both residents and visitors alike.

These partnerships are a testament to our commitment to a thriving Outer Banks, ensuring our guests and homeowners benefit from a connected and vibrant community.

Our primary operations are nestled near the beautiful Outer Banks of North Carolina. Our entire operations team, along with our in-house Marketing Team, is housed under one roof in Grandy on Mainland Currituck, just twenty minutes from the OBX beaches, ensuring seamless collaboration and efficiency. A select number of team members are based in Newport News, where our Inventory and Revenue Management, Accounting, and main Communications Team expertly manage the backbone of our operations. Nearby, our state-of-the-art Eagles Laundry facility ensures every linen is pristine.
