Royal Palace w/ Heated Pool+ Pets Stay Free!
Welcome to Royal Palace by KEES Vacations!
Live like royalty in your very own oceanfront palace! Designed to impress, this pet-friendly, sumptuous home with private heated pool offers chic furnishings, an elevator, twelve luxurious suites with private baths (all with flat screen TVs) and exceptional entertainment options on each level. Centrally located in Kill Devil Hills, the heart of the Outer Banks, guests have easy access to historic landmarks, national parks, family adventures, and a multitude of dining and shopping opportunities.
Let yourself be at ease in a beautiful landscaped outdoor area filled with amenities to enjoy throughout your stay. Lounge in the cabana and sip your drink by the custom 28x14 pool as the little ones play in the inset kiddie pool. Plentiful outdoor furniture allows for lounging under the warm sun. Allow yourself to relax in the soothing hot tub and on the rooftop deck for the pristine beach views and sunbathing. Trips to and from the beach are a breeze using the private beach walkway with dune-top deck to overlook beach activities. Spruce up in the outdoor shower after a long day in the sun and sand.
As you enter the first level, you will find a well-equipped rec room which includes a pool table, foosball table, plush sofa seating, and mounted flat screen TV. A kitchenette and bar area are equipped with a sink, microwave, full-sized refrigerator, dishwasher and bar seating. An upscale, private 13-seat theater room with tiered seating, and a high-end projection screen and surround sound system provides the perfect setting for any Hollywood blockbuster! A half bathroom can also be found on this level. Also on the first level, you will find three elegant King En Suites (one with Jacuzzi tub, mini fridge, sitting area and two-sided seasonal gas fireplace) and two kid-friendly suites with private baths that are each furnished with two Twin Pyramid Bunk sets.
Walk up to the second level where you will find six King En Suites, each with a flat-screen TV. Two of these suites provide a sitting area, a two-sided seasonal gas fireplace, Jacuzzi tub and mini refrigerator. One of the King En Suites is oceanfront with direct access to the covered deck. A laundry room is centrally located. An oceanfront sports bar on the second level is furnished with cushy reclining chairs, three mounted flat screen TVs and a bar equipped with a full refrigerator, ice maker, microwave, dishwasher, and bar seating. The sports bar also has direct access to the covered deck that overlooks the pool area. For convenience, there is a half bathroom on this level as well.
As you travel up to the third level of this palatial home, you will be greeted by vaulted ceilings, columns, ceramic tile and elegant furnishings that are sure to put your mind at ease. Stunning panoramic ocean views are center stage with the wall-to-wall windows. One sitting area offers sofa seating and water views, and a second sitting area features sofas arranged around a seasonal gas fireplace and flat screen TV. A central bar is equipped with a sink, wine cooler, ice maker, mounted flat screen TV and bar seating. A table for six is ideal for card games or drinks and snacks. Two dining areas each provide a table for formal meals. The high-end gourmet kitchen overlooks the great room and boasts an abundance of space with its granite countertops. The kitchen is well equipped with stainless steel appliances including two 48" refrigerators, two dishwashers, double ovens, two microwaves, two cooktops and bar seating for casual dining. A half bathroom is available to those in the living room. Throw open the doors in the living room and walk out to a furnished sun deck that offers spectacular ocean views, sunrises over the Atlantic, and gorgeous sea breezes. A grand King En Suite completes the top floor and has a private balcony, two-sided seasonal fireplace, flat screen TV, mini refrigerator and a Jacuzzi tub.
Fit for a king, a queen, and their whole royal court, escape the cares of the world while you stay at the Royal Palace and enjoy the ultimate Outer Banks vacation!

Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
House was great for our multi-family stay. Loved the big open room and location and beach access. The guys would have liked a bigger TV in the main room (March Madness). Some pot holders or oven mitts would be nice (we had to go out and buy some). Two items needed to be fixed - bed (fixed within 24 hours) and 2 of the 4 ovens in the main kitchen (heated up, but not to appropriate temp). Ovens may still need to be fixed or replaced, but 2 working oven in main kitchen were enough for us. Highly recommend this house! We will stay here again!
Positives with this property are the location, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, fans in all the rooms, elevator, dining space, number of ice makers and refrigerators, and large exterior trash bin. Negatives is some of the ranges didn't work, facets leak, dryer has a bad bearing, pool area is overgrown with grass, weeds and bushes and exterior area needs refreshed. The house had an abundant amount of tv's but no cable and most of them need batteries in the remotes and instructions on how to use could help a lot. Overall, the negatives definitely made us feel that this property is not worth the weekly price, and to be fair we only called the management company when we lost internet for 1 1/2 days. We were on vacation with our families and wanted to enjoy our time not there to take care of upkeep and making lists of issues.

It was a great location and nice house- we had everything what we expected- except some of the items below are not up to the level of money you charged.
1. very poor cleanly ness- every room, kitchen and hall was dusty and some small dead bugs in the bedrooms.
2. linens are not in few of the bedrooms, they brought it next day, thank you though we had to buy towels from the store.
3. fool was dirty with bugs, we had to clean before using the fool.
the price we spent , we don't expect these service from established organization-
Location, house rooms are excellent- and we loved it.
we will reccamond to all my friends , but please make sure above pints to be taken care by Keas vacation services.
Thank you!
The location was amazing and there was plenty of space for our party. There are some updates needed to the outdoor back decks and deck to the beach. Additionally, the TVs do not all connect making it very difficult to access them at all in many of the rooms.
Property was a bit dated but okay. Pool heater did not work and no propane for grille.

Very Poor maintenance
Beautiful home. However, the property is not maintained. The top floor wood deck is full of dry rot, protruding nails and is dangerous.
The wooden steps to the beach are defective and one step is missing. The steps are dangerous and at least one guest fell.
The pool tile is missing in at least one location and the pool pump shut off and drained the spa dry twice in 5 days.
The A/C unit for the 2nd floor failed. It was timely repaired.
The electrical box in the laundry room was overcrowded with wires and extension cords. the door could not be closed with the overcrowding causing a hazard for our children should they attempt to pull or tug on any of the overcrowded wires.
Disrepair and poor maintenance makes this home a danger for any guest. We will not come again even if free.
