Welcome to Seas the Day Corolla, a ideal home-away-from-home in the Outer Banks!

Whether you come to Corolla for the wild horses, Currituck Lighthouse, Whalehead Club, or the unbeatable beaches, you’ll appreciate staying at Seas the Day. We’ve put a lot of thought into equipping the home with everything a family might need for a marvelous vacation — so that you barely need to bring a thing! Plus, our keyless entry system and included laundry service mean no time wasted picking up a key or dropping off laundry!

Some of the amenities that our guests have appreciated most include the bicycles, bocce court, beach gear, and kids' recreation room. And of course don’t forget to try the hammock, multi-game arcade, ping-pong table, and hot tub!

As part of the Villages at Ocean Hill community, your stay also includes (all within mins.’ walk): private access to the beach, two swimming pools (open Memorial Day through Labor Day), a exercise center, tennis and basketball courts, a playground, and a turtle-filled lake (they appreciate Cheerios!).

The home is located about 3 blocks from the beach — a fast 2-min. drive or bicycle ride, or a pleasant 8-10 min. walk. It is also a 2-min. drive from the wild horse sanctuary of Carova Beach (4WD-accessible), and a 5-min. walk from the nature trail leading to the sound. Miles of newly paved paths just outside the community are ideal for cycling, running, or walking. Just down the block is the magnificant Corolla Adventure Park, where you can take on the ropes course, do some axe throwing, and grab a beer or root beer float!

The home itself is a cavernous and calming getaway. The heart of the home is the open-concept top floor, which has high ceilings, tons of light, and great vistas of the lighthouse. This floor includes a full kitchen with bar seating, dining table, and sweetheart table (total seating for up to 14); a half-bathroom; and three comfortable couches for relaxing — plus a screened-in porch with table and chairs, and sliding glass doors to a deck with sun loungers. The well-outfitted kitchen includes plenty of glasses, tumblers, dishware, cookware, and appliances (including a blender, coffeemaker, 4-slot toaster, and toaster oven) as well as a cooler for days at the beach. The living area comes equipped with a flat-screen intelligent TV, DVD player, surround-sound stereo, and tons of games and puzzles. And of course, there is complimentary WiFi, enhanced with a Google Mesh network that ensures a strong signal on every floor.

The master bedroom is also located on the top floor, with a king-size bed, full bath, flat-screen Roku TV, and sliding glass doors to the hot tub deck.

The second floor is home to three bedrooms. Another master bedroom here features a queen-size bed, full bath, flat-screen Roku TV, and sliding glass doors to a wraparound deck with a rope hammock where you can read, nap, and daydream. The "First Flight" room is ideal for a young family or up to 4 kids, with a full+twin Duo Bunk bed and a separate twin bed. The "Wild Horse" room has 2 twin beds that can effortlessly be pushed together if you prefer to have a king size bed. Rounding out the second floor are a huge full bathroom and laundry area with washer, dryer, and additional towels, as well as another main entrance off the hammock deck to the home.

The last bedroom on the ground floor doubles as a recreation room, sure to be the kids’ favorite! A two-player multi-game arcade and a foosball table offer hours of fun, along with a TV/DVD/stereo setup and mini-library of books. This room contains a full+twin Duo Bunk bed as well as a pullout sleeper couch and a loveseat. The ground floor also has a half bathroom.

Outside, challenge your housemates to a ping-pong tournament using the best-in-class ping-pong table. Try your hand at bocce — or hop into the 7-person hot tub to soak up the good life and relax.

When you’re planning your activities, be sure to check out the bicycles, and beach gear (chairs, umbrellas, body board, and toys) we’ve supplied! There are also two full sets of golf clubs (adult size) if you should want to hit the links! And when you’re back from the beach, the private outdoor shower (with both hot and cold water) is the ideal way to rinse off and relax.

Please note:
-For our guests' safety, the home is protected by exterior Ring cameras, one overlooking the front driveway area and the other overlooking the back patio/bocce/hot tub area.
-We have a families-only rental policy, as the home is set up for a mix of kids and adults. We welcome groups with up to 8 adults for max. comfort.

We look forward to welcoming you to Seas the Day!

How to get the best rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To get the best rental for your budget, we highly recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies supply Currituck area travel guides which will include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Finding the best rental home:

• Select a group lead, choose your dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Spacious family fun! Relax with a hot tub, bocce & ping-pong! [Sunday-to-Sunday] has 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Currituck rentals search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible online. If they are not listed, contact the host before you book your home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental
• Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Upon check-in, record any damages to the property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your home life. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental property while you're out! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a fantastic stay? Many rental managers make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
