Get ready to have A Whale Of A Time when you stay at this oceanside beach home in Corolla's sought-after Whalehead community. Your family will have both a private pool and hot tub all to yourselves for around-the-clock outdoor fun and relaxation. The thoughtfully landscaped backyard is covered in a lush, barefoot-friendly lawn ideal for croquet, cornhole and other yard games. A flagstone patio is equipped with a gas grille for cookouts and adirondack chairs surrounding a fire pit for gathering in the evenings. Finest of all, getting to the beach will be fast and simple using the close by path to the Sturgeon Street beach access, just a five-min. walk from the home. Use the beach cart to conveniently transport all of your toys, snacks and gear for a full day of sun, sand and surf.

When you come home from the beach, relax in the comfortably furnished living area featuring an open-concept layout, wood floor and vaulted ceilings. It leads out to an east-facing sun deck where you can appreciate a horizon view of the ocean and a exhilarating coastal breeze. When you're not dining out, prepare meals in the well-supplied kitchen and serve at the dining table for eight or al fresco on the screened porch. The top-level primary bedroom also provides deck access as well as an ensuite bath for plenty of privacy. Three additional bedrooms on the mid-level (including a second ensuite) will comfortably accommodate family and friends, and the den can be used as a second living area or kid's hangout space.

Located on the north end of the Whalehead Beach community, A Whale Of A Time is just a mile from historic Corolla Village. Explore unique shopping and dining options plus famed Corolla attractions including the Whalehead Club, Currituck Beach Lighthouse and the Outer Banks Center for Wildlife Education.

How to get the best Currituck rental home experience:

Finding the best value:

  • Summer time is high season in Corolla. To get the best value, consider changing your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
  • In the Currituck area, The sooner your group can book, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation property six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
  • Some owners offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
  • Property management companies often offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
  • Look for your local Currituck area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines have coupons for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

  • Choose vacation week and max budget.
  • Hot Tub has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
  • Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking pages. Otherwise, call the host before booking your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You will need to determine what configuration is suitable for your group.
  • Looking for particular amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
  • Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking
  • Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or costs may be applied to your contract.

Advice for a fantastic stay:

  • We recommend storing the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
  • Note any issues with the property at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute arises.
  • Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few concerns.
  • Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible source for finding the best local scenic spots.
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
  • Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would back home.
  • Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at departure. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Inspect the rental a final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
  • Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on great feedback to drive more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
