Outer Banks
This wildly popular B&B has just four rooms, reached via a series of colorful corridors, in a typical island home loaded with artsy knickknacks. Rates include use of bikes (and rides to the beach if you're so inclined) and there is sometimes live music streamed from the front-yard gazebo in high season. Guests have access to the 2nd-floor patio.
Pam prefers pets to children, so bring Fido but board little Johnny with grandma. Lower rates can be bagged in low season (November to March).
