Imagine your entire family gathered around the table in anticipation of digging into a delectable Thanksgiving dinner. If your home dinner table isn’t fit for hosting everyone you wish to invite, check out a selection of our spacious coastal North Carolina vacation rentals for hosting Thanksgiving dinner.

Sea Haven – North Topsail Beach

Our massive Sea Haven vacation rental invites up to 26 guests to stay and enjoy the holiday festivities. That’s enough for multiple families to stay under one roof and enjoy the weekend together.

Load up your plate with a juicy slice of turkey before finding a seat at the long table, round table, or bar. If you’re first in line, you might snag a spot on the coveted sound view deck table for dinner with a view!

Pelican Post Entire – Wrightsville Beach

This Thanksgiving, claim the entire Pelican Post vacation rental for you and your family. The rental provides access to both sides of the duplex, expanding the accommodations to host up to 20 guests comfortably.

The open floor-plan kitchen fills the main living room with the salivating aromas of pumpkin pie, letting everyone know that dinner is almost ready to be served. After, settle into one of the eight bedrooms to sleep off your holiday meal.

Salty Towers – Surf City

Salty Towers is perfect for the chefs in the family who love treating kin to their best meal of the year. This 19-guest vacation home is designed with a chef’s kitchen suitable for even the most elaborate Thanksgiving dinner menus. Large countertops make it easy to prepare multiple dishes simultaneously, and upgraded appliances ensure that everything comes out “chef’s kiss” delicious.

You’ll fall in love with hearing the patter of feet running up the steps to the third floor to dig into your specially prepared holiday dinner.

Pier Haven Entire – Wrightsville Beach

Dining with views of the iconic Johnnie Mercer’s Pier and the Atlantic Ocean is the only way to do Thanksgiving in Wrightsville Beach. Pier Haven gives you access to two units (upper and lower) for hosting 14 guests this holiday.

No need to wait for the oven to cook the next dish. You can have everything ready at the same time by taking advantage of two kitchens (one in each unit). Introduce some new dishes to the dinner table by tossing some meat and veggie kebabs on the backyard grill.

Ocean Mist – Wrightsville Beach

Forget about the days of dining in your grandma’s dim, cluttered kitchen. Experience a coastal North Carolina dinner with immaculate views from Ocean Mist. The open floor plan lets you enjoy views of the Banks Channel and your own private beach through the floor-to-ceiling windows while preparing Thanksgiving dinner. Fill up the large kitchen island with all your favorite dishes—everything from the glazed ham to the dressing to the Mac and cheese.

Time your meal right and you’ll even be treated to a stunning sunset for dessert.

Flock of Sea Girls – Wrightsville Beach

Holidays can get hectic between organizing the trip, preparing the food, and keeping everyone entertained. Luckily, Flock of Sea Girls puts you in a quiet residential part of Wrightsville Beach to enjoy true coastal serenity.

The expansive wrap-around Oceanview deck is one of the defining features of the beach home—and yes, it has seating to enjoy the views while eating. So, narrow down your invite list to 16 guests and get the holidays started!

The Sea Guld Entire – Wrightsville Beach

Private chef service through our partner, Della, can help you prepare an unforgettable Thanksgiving meal. The Sea Gull beach house sandwiches you between the Atlantic Ocean and the sound, so you’ll have your pick of pre- or post-Thanksgiving dinner fun (don’t forget to wait 20 minutes after eating before getting in the water!).

Rent the entire unit and spend this Thanksgiving with up to 16 guests in Wrightsville Beach, with six bedrooms spread across two units.

Goin’ Coastal – Ocean Isle Beach

Thanksgiving dinner is the perfect way to break in the new appliances outfitting the gourmet kitchen inside our Goin’ Coastal vacation home. Up to 15 guests can immerse themselves in coastal elegance with beach-inspired decor and views of the Intracoastal Waterways. It includes a large dining table with Marsh views or lots of seating around the large kitchen island. Soak away those Thanksgiving Day calories inside your very own hot tub.

Deja Blue – Carolina Beach

Blue is the color of Thanksgiving in Carolina Beach when you stay at our Deja Blue property. Wooden cabinetry and marble countertops decorating the kitchen make this place feel like home. So, don’t be afraid to get down and dirty in the kitchen to really put your foot in every dish—it’s worth it and easy to clean up! The double oven means you can have the turkey and candied sweet potatoes cooking simultaneously.

Work off your meal with an evening bike ride to the Carolina Beach Boardwalk. It’s less than 10 minutes away, and we even provide bikes for guests to use during their stay.

Masons View – Wilmington

Masons View brings your Thanksgiving Day tradition into the 21st century with its luxurious, modern kitchen. The home accommodates up to 12 guests and is outfitted with the proper amenities to make cooking for your entire family a breeze. Utilize the butler’s pantry to store all your ingredients.
