Ocean Bay Villas is a low-rise, three-story condominium complex completed in 1983 along the Bogue Sound in Atlantic Beach, North Carolina. The property primarily offers two- and three-bedroom residences arranged in a compact footprint with exterior corridors and multiple deck exposures; many units are furnished and feature in-unit elements such as kitchen islands, wet bars, walk-in showers, built-in bookcases, ceiling fans, and blinds. Common-area conveniences include an elevator serving upper floors, covered ground-level parking near unit access, cluster mailboxes, and an irrigation system for landscaped grounds. Outdoors the community emphasizes coastal recreation: a large swimming pool, a private sound-side pier and dock with kayak/paddleboard launch, grilling/picnic areas, bike and kayak storage, outdoor showers, and direct beach access via a private boardwalk across the street. The building’s exterior includes functional shutters, balconies or decks for most units, and tree-lined buffer areas that provide privacy for end units. Management enforces a no short-term rental policy, and pet and leasing rules vary by unit; the complex appeals to owners seeking easy access to both the sound and nearby ocean, while offering basic elevator convenience and covered parking rather than high-rise services.
