About this property

A Whale Of A Time: Private Pool | Hot Tub

  • Get ready to have A Whale Of A Time when you stay at this oceanside beach house 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 perfect for croquet, cornhole and other yard games. A flagstone patio is equipped with a gas grill for cookouts and adirondack chairs surrounding a fire pit for gathering in the evenings. Best of all, getting to the beach will be quick and easy using the nearby path to the Sturgeon Street beach access, just a five-minute walk from the house. Use the beach cart to easily 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, hardwood flooring and vaulted ceilings. It leads out to an east-facing sun deck where you can enjoy a horizon view of the ocean and a refreshing coastal breeze. When you're not dining out, prepare meals in the well-stocked 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 famous Corolla attractions including the Whalehead Club, Currituck Beach Lighthouse and the Outer Banks Center for Wildlife Education. Walkers, joggers and bikers will appreciate the multi-use path that runs through town.

    No pets allowed. No smoking/vaping. Fireplace not available for guest use. Please refer to the Rental Agreement while reviewing Rules & Policies for pool opening/closing dates.

House was as described. Beach access was close, ample parking, beds were comfy, pool and hot tub were great! - all linens and towels provided which is a nice touch. A few hiccups at the start with kitchen items not being useable, but issues were resolved promptly by management company. We had a nice week at A Whale of a Time! .

Cozy House Near The Beach

This house was perfect for my partner & two friends. We had a great relaxing time. You can see the ocean from the balcony. Had a wonderfully huge backyard & fire pit area. This house is just a short walk to the beach. I would recommend this property.
