About this Property

  • Sleeps 10

  • 4 Bathrooms
  • Private vacation home

Your clean, elegant, Corolla Beach House: The Whale’s Tale awaits you! Accommodates 10 guests with 4 Bedrooms.

Spectacular sun rises through the thirteen-window panorama facing the ocean. Take breakfast on the upper deck and then walk the short two blocks to a roomy beach. Beach chairs, umbrellas and sand toys supplied.

The chef in your family will delight in the kitchen completely equipped with quality appliances, cookware and stemware. A gas grille stands ready for the grille master. Breathe in the salt air, hear the crashing ocean waves as you appreciate a meal outside on the picnic table.

An open floor plan unifies the kitchen, dining area, living area and ping pong area. Generous flat screen TV with cable. Free WI-FI throughout the home. For tranquility and peaceful getaway to the covered side porch where ocean breezes cool on even the hottest summer days. Unwind in the massage chair or with a frozen drink made in the Margaritaville Maker relax in the hot tub under the Gazebo.

Grocery, eateries and retail shopping are a five min. drive. Take a short bicycle ride (The Whale's Tale provides 4) or walk to the Whalehead Club to stroll the majestic grounds. Climb to the top of the Currituck lighthouse and tour the complimentary Nature Museum to learn about the rich history of this once isolated village.

Active and adventurous visitors can savor a round of Golf, Kayaking, Surfing, Swimming, Fishing, Corolla Horse Tours, Shopping, or a Day Trip to the Wright Brothers memorial park. Of course, an afternoon building sandcastles can be just as fulfilling.

As the day ends on our island—far from big city lights--the stars light up the nighttime sky. Relaxation, laughter, conversation and memories for your family that will last a lifetime, all await you at The Whale’s Tale.

Tricks and tips to get the very best Currituck vacation home experience:

Get the best rental home value:

  • June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Currituck area. To get the best value, change your family's Currituck vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic.
  • Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
  • Some owners offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
  • Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
  • Often, property management companies supply Currituck area travel guides that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Choosing the perfect rental home in Corolla:

  • To start, have your family decide on date ranges and a max budget.
  • Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. 2 blocks to ocean, 4 bedrooms, pet friendly has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
  • Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before you book the home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish what configuration is best for your group.
  • Visiting for a specific attraction or event? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
  • Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
  • Some rental properties allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.

Additional considerations:

  • Be sure you get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your . We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone.
  • Note any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if damages are attributed to your stay.
  • Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few difficulties.
  • Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your peace and quiet. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would have not otherwise known about!
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
  • Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let crooks spoil your holiday.
  • Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Record a video to document the condition of the property.
  • Did you have a excellent vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
