Great way to celebrate 50 yrs of marriage!

Great location from the beach. Easy access to pedestrian walkways. Street was quiet yet great for walking or running. Pool was amazing! Check in & out was seamless. Great home for a family getaway to the beach.

The pool was a nice temperature the entire time we were there. The only problem was the dryer didn’t work, I’m sure they would of fixed it but by the time we realized it was to late in the week. I would definitely stay again.

Great house!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family (son, daughter, their spouses, and two teenage girls, and the dog) thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lazy Dog. The kitchen is very well equipped , there's plenty of seating for a large group, and space to spread out. Access to the beach is only a short walk away, and the beach itself is great with a gradual drop before reaching a large sandbar -- perfect for wave riding. The lot is much bigger than average, providing play space for the dog. And the pool is beautiful. All in all, a great stay.

Week at Nauti Gulls

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The week at Corolla was wonderful. The personnel at Beach Realty were very responsive and pleasant to deal with. However, the house is in need of general maintenance due to its age. It appears that the new owners are making needed maintenance upgrades, the pool was great, but several actions remain.For example, the refrigerator (ice maker did not work) and dishwasher need to be replaced; the upstairs outside deck has several loose boards in the railing; the downstairs toilet was blocked with visible human waste (unblocked by plumber); overall the house was dirty upon our arrival, etc.

I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a lovely vacation with our family in spite of the brutal heat. The pool was great. The unit could use some additional items such as a table with an umbrella by the pool, additional items in the kitchen such as a cutting board and better knives. When we arrived 4 of the table lamps had no bulbs. There were no bulbs in the unit so we had to go out and purchase bulbs for the lamps. We reported a leak in the kitchen sink which did not get repaired. We also reported a problem with the front door which was not locking properly.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We made the best of a very broken house . spent several days of my precious vacation time baby sitting repairmen(who were really nice) . Too many things broken to list . Dangerous ceiling fan missing a blade almost knocked out my wife.Outdoor electric socket hanging out with exposed wiring. Jacuzzi leaking into light fixture below unusable.Stereo doesn't work.Filthy dishes .If this house meets Beach Realty standards then shame on them.This place needs updating and extensive repair before you should rent it.We didn't get what we paid for. Beach R was responsive but renovating this house on my vacation dime (and maybe yours)just isn't right.If l had known before l would have passed on this one .PS : needs paint

WIFI so slow that we could only read emails in the morning. No streaming possible. They had cable but only local channels. Plenty of room, close to the beach. Was able to bring my dog and got to see all my kids from four states without going to the poor house.

Nauti Gulls nice place needs a little more tlc

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family had a great time at nauti gulls . Everyone enjoyed the pool and hottub . House was pretty clean except for some dead flies on ground floor. Several windows were broken so couldn't be opened. 2nd floor screen door shock mount has rusted and is broken. Major safety concern to me is the 3rd floor deck handrail felt like if leaned on you'd end up on the concrete driveway. I would recommend the next renovations be to that rail.I would rent again and recommend to friends, but advice to be careful on that deck.

Nauti Gulls Review

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our stay in Outerbanks as we always do, have been coming for the last 20 years! We loved the house and their upgrades this year! The only disappointment was the volleyball court. It was not usable as it was a mess, thorns etc. It needs to be cleaned up and have sand added. Maybe even add a cornhole setup behind it or by the driveway. We loved the pool, the room setup was great! Overall we LOVED it!!

Nauti Gulls in early October

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay at Nauti Gulls. Early October is a great time to visit the area and the house had everything that we needed. We went with the heated pool option, and I am glad that we did. It wasn't too cool out but there were a couple of days that the kids needed to burn off some energy and the water temp was warmer than the air temp. There were plenty of sleeping options and the beach is not far at all. Plenty of cutlery and everything else you need to cook and eat meals.

Some furniture (stools, chairs) were actually falling apart. There was also a lack of outdoor furniture (eg, chairs on deck/around pool). Looks like some updating started on first floor...hopefully continues throughout house before continuing to be rented. Great location and lots of room for multiple families.

Reviewer Comments: We had a great vacation. The house is located in a great area, walking distance to the beach. The house wasn’t in good shape. The dresser in the main master bedroom was broken. The shower on the middle floor was clogged and had black stuff coming from the drain. The kitchen cabinets looked old and warped but served there purpose. The overall cleanliness was poor. I know we stayed in a per friendly area but I didn’t expect all the dog hair. You couldn’t sit on any of the carpet without being covered in long white hair.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Day one of our vacation was miserable but didn’t keep us down for long. As we were unpacking we noticed some windows were opened on the upper level. The problem was the windows were not able to be closed. The mechanism to close the windows was broken on a large percentage of the windows. To top it off, the screens don’t fit properly. We called for service and the maintenance man that came out was not able to close one of the windows in the master bedroom, he said we would have to wait 2 days, until Monday to put in a service order. When we went to go to bed at night the room was swarming with mosquitoes, completely uninhabitable. Called in for service again on Sunday and the maintenance man who came out then duct taped the window shut. Had some cool nights but couldn’t open any windows!! There were numerous pieces of broken furniture in the house: 2 chairs in the upper den, dresser in master bedroom, chair on deck, bed on middle level and I’m sure more. Luckily we had nice weather which made the stay enjoyable.
