Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
The house needs a deep clean and some organization. The AC doesn’t do a great job on mid and bottom level at all. The double room and bunk room are way too hot to even sleep in there’s no air flow. We have never stayed anywhere there wasn’t baby gates with steps, and toilet paper to get you started but there wasn’t any of those. The sofa is falling apart and the doors have alarms but are all stuck together on the wrong side so they don’t even work. The dryer keeps popping open and spilling all the clothes out and The top level has awful water pressure and barely any hot water. There are crazy signs all over the house like if you unplug a tv or hook a game up there’s a fine. Now the positive - The location was great, the pool area is nice and the backyard was amazing to have for the kids to burn energy. We wouldn’t stay here again just due to the fact of the negatives that outweigh the positives.

Dear Ms. Kimberly Clements:
Thank you for bringing your comment to our attention. This matter was discussed in the table with our Consulting Team.
Below is answer to your specific comments.
-The house needs a deep clean and some organization.
Answer: The deep cleaning schedule in the industry is typically between January to March. From Spring Break to Christmas, weekly bookings would make that deep cleaning impossible. However, our turnover cleaners are required to clean the house thoroughly within our cleaning guidelines followed by inspections.
-The AC doesn’t do a great job on mid and bottom level at all. The double room and bunk room are way too hot to even sleep in there’s no air flow.
Answer: I had our HVAC service company come out to check the air conditioning when I read your review. Our HVAC consulting person has experience in the industry for 30 years. He added a recommendation and now the air conditioning is cooling off the double room and the bunk beds room satisfactorily. I apologize that some of your family members were hot in the double room and the bunk bed room. If you had contacted us on the first day you arrived, I would have had the HVAC service person check it immediately.
-We have never stayed anywhere there wasn’t baby gates with steps.
Answer: Baby gates are not listed in the house amenities, and they are not in any of the photos in the house listing. If you had contacted us about the baby gates prior to your arrival or when you checked in, we would have made a call to the rental company to get baby gates to the house for you. Such as when we had guests in the past who requested for additional pool lounge chairs, we delivered it to them.
-toilet paper to get you started but there wasn’t any of those.
Answer: This is the first time that this has happened in twenty years since we've been operating the vacation rental to our new and returning guests. Our cleaners are trained, vetted and normally do a very thorough job cleaning and replenishing the toilet paper in all 6 bathrooms and paper towels in the kitchen and in the wet bar. I am so sorry that there was no toilet paper in your bathroom. I personally assure you that I would have immediately rectified that shortageupon your notification.
-The sofa is falling apart.
Answer: There are 3 large sofas in the great room, and we were aware that one of it was repaired by our handyman. We are now happy that the repaired sofa was removed and should not be an issue in the future.
-the doors have alarms but are all stuck together on the wrong side so they don’t even work.
Answer: The property has 34 windows and 6 exit doors. Although there is no local ordinance requiring all window and all door to have alarms, we have installed the windows and door alarms for added safety. We would have come to replace the specific door alarm of the door that was inoperative.
- The dryer keeps popping open and spilling all the clothes out
Answer: We inspected the dryer door and this is the first time in 20 years of service to our valued guests about dyer door popping open. When our inspector checked, the dryer door worked perfectly fine. It is important to note that dryers can only accommodate a load to work properly.
The top level has awful water pressure and barely any hot water.
Answer: I was not aware if there was a water leakage in the area at the time you booked the property that may have caused the low pressure in the system. At the time of this response, we have not experienced a reduction of water pressure in the property. Most houses in this area including our property have water heater at the ground floor and it takes a while to make the ascent of hot water to the mid level and third floor.
There are crazy signs all over the house like if you unplug a tv or hook a game up there’s a fine.
Answer: We put advisory for certain appliance for efficiency purposes. The breakdowns can be frustrating for incoming guests during turnover when Outer Banks vendors are not immediately available to be on site to fix what needs to be fixed.
We understand your displeasure as addressed above. We are a well-established vacation rental business, longer than most of homeowners in Corolla area and we train our crew well so that we deliver the best every year to provide excellent service to our guests. We appreciate the guest feedback as those have ushered our growth in this business as well as inspired us for our commitment to continuous improvement. We hope that we can move past these comments and that you return at some time in the future to allow us to show our professionalism.

The property was very clean and accommodated our large group of 7 couples/14 adults very well. We enjoyed the hot tub and the beach is just a short walk. The living area and kitchen are very spacious and accommodated our large group very comfortably. The owner was responsive to messages for the most part. The refrigerator in the kitchen on the main level was not cooling sufficiently and was iced over, and upon reaching out to the owners, they were out of town and did not plan to service the refrigerator until after we left. We were able to use the one in the basement game room, but it was not as convenient. The unit has multiple keurig machines, but only one coffee pot. Towels and linens were provided as advertised, but one bedroom did not have towels and upon reaching out to the owner we were told to go buy towels. Also, one towel was provided per person in the other bedrooms, whereas most hotels, etc provide 2 per person. Overall, it was great property and we enjoyed our time there!

About the host
Hosted by Liezl Moralde
I was born and grew up in an Island in the Pacific. An island girl at heart. The beach was my playground when I was a kid. I have plenty of memories when I was a child, hunting crabs, hunting fish, and playing the waves low tide or high tide. The ocean beckons, I met the love of my life who brought me to Whalehead and closer to the ocean once again, I could write a book for all of the loving memories. This property is shared to you for the purpose of giving you and your loved ones the accommodation to vacation together in an environment that truly feels it is your home away from home.
Why they chose this property
You'll just have to be here to appreciate it yourself. It is a clean neighborhood. Locals are very nice folks.
What makes this property unique
This property is close both to the Ocean for sunrise and lots of energy whether casting your fishing rod to get lucky with a catch or play volleyball, or just relaxing and getting a great suntan and to the Sound for spectacular sunset and for tranquil, romantic mood. There is so much fun to do close by only 4- 6 minute-drive, and you are at a natural grass mini golf, or 6 minute-drive to Currituck golf course. A Kona Ice truck drives around the neighborhood all day! You have a huge private pool! Shopping center, cafes, restaurants and game arcades are just 6 minutes' drive! This is indeed a great location, almost everything you want to explore is only 4 minutes! Whether you are visiting historic sites such as Whalehead House, Boat Museum, Corolla Light House or if you are going for paddle boarding, kayaking, or Jet ski the ride is as fun whether you rent a golf cart to drive around or use your own vehicle. Plenty of fun awaits!
