"Our family enjoyed every minute here. This home had everything you could possibly need. It was beautifully furnished and decorated. Every inch of this home was interesting. You can tell this home is loved. The views of sunrise/sunsets exhilarating!" (CC 8/21)

"We six, (5 young adults and a 50 +) had a great time at Simple Gifts by the Sea! It's close to the ocean so got up early to see the beautiful sunrise and saw sunsets on the deck swing. We spent lots of family time with dinners on the deck, card games, puzzles, swimming in the pool and grilling on the BBQ. The book selection and movie selection here are wonderful! Loved all the beautiful and historical decorum. The owner called to check to see if we had any questions about 15 minutes after our arrival. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!!!" (SR 8/21)

Belinda Pleva grew up serving ice cream out of her parent’s shop. She loved being part of what she calls “a happy business.” “I love it when people come into the shop and you hand them something, and it makes them smile,” Pleva says. “That moment when you hand an ice cream cone over to a little kid and their eyes just light up. That’s what I love about the ice cream business.”

 

In 1994, Pleva opened up her own ice cream and chocolate shop, Big Buck’s Ice Cream, in the brand-new Timbuk II Shopping Center in Corolla. Business was good, but something was missing.

 

“I was never satisfied with the ingredients in the ice creams and chocolates you could purchase back then. I wanted to serve my customers delicious flavors with ingredients they could actually pronounce,” Pleva says.

 

Pleva took a trip to Italy to study the gelaterias. She fell in love with the incredible flavors, and when she returned home to the Outer Banks, she began working tirelessly to perfect the flavors in her own ice cream.

 

Big Buck’s homemade ice cream combined the flavors of the Italian gelaterias and the richness of American ice cream. It quickly became a tourist favorite. After having the same unsatisfactory experience with the readymade chocolates she was selling, she also took a trip to Brussels to learn more about making handmade chocolates. Pleva brought the chocolate-making experience right back with her, and the result was the finest quality of chocolates on the Outer Banks.

 

After her huge success in the Corolla shop, Pleva was able to open up three more shops—one in Kitty Hawk, one in Manteo and one in Duck.
