Three master bedrooms all have king beds, private baths and direct deck access. The ocean views are still spectacular from this level... uninterrupted blue! But if you need diversion, the two east facing kings have 32" Smartvs.

We enjoyed our stay here. It was private and a quick walk to the beach. We watched the wild horses from the house every day. The layout of the house worked well for all of us. We would stay here again.

The property was perfect for a large Family. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you need to cook your meals. The pool and the Hot Tub was nice after a long day on the beach. I would bring lots of bottled water and ice for drinking and cooking. The Property Manager was excellent!

12 members of my family stayed and it was great. Wonderful location. The house was nice; the kitchen had everything we needed. Plenty of room for everyone. The pool and hot tub were really wonderful after all day at the beach. We loved the 4x4 beach, would definitely recommend getting a 4WD car! It’s a drive to town so get groceries on the way out to the house.

The house was nice, but needs to be updated. The walkway to the beach was a giant sand dune that had you had to climb up and then go down. I actually fell going down because it was kind of steep. Not sure if there can be anything done with that because of all the laws with sand dunes. We did have perfect weather and spent lots of family time which is the most important thing.

Great time, wonderful view
We absolutley loved this property. Had horses come right up to the fencing for the pool. Pool was nice, hot tub was fantastic. The people who we rented from were incredible. Easy to contact and talk to. Sadly we had to cut our vacation a day short because we weren't sure how things would be effected by Hurricane Ian. It was super windy and rainy. The beach driving was amazing, we had an f150, two jeeps, and a Kia. The only time we had trouble was during the storm on the way out. We definitely recommend.

Absolutely Perfect
We stayed here for our annual family vacation. 14 of us and we couldn't have been more comfortable. The house offers plenty of privacy in the layout, as well as a great amount of common space. The pool was the cleanest we've seen at a rental, and the pool company came twice during our stay to check on the condition - we were impressed! You can't beat the views or location - I miss waking up to dolphins & pelicans every morning with my coffee. The house literally has everything you need to prepare all meals and enjoy time your time at the beach (except beach towels - pack those!). Laura and David were incredibly helpful, provided quick responses and even gave on-the-spot directions to the house form the beach. We loved every minute of our stay and can't wait to go back!

Perfect getaway
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Seaside seemed to be designed perfectly for my family of 13. Each bedroom having a private bath prevented many fights! A private pool and hot tub was the highlight for the young kids not ready for the surf. We loved the idea of a bit of isolation. driving in the beach everyday was a breeze and a very fun. The ability to stretch out was unique from any other beach we stayed at, it was like having a private beach. Overall, this was a perfect place to stay for a large group who just want to relax. You will not find a better management experience anywhere communication and flexibility with Laura was outstanding.

An awesome seaside experience at Seaside
This was our first time at the Outer Banks and I think we picked the perfect home! Location: The house was ideally located with wild horses grazing around us at all times of the day. The 4x4 beach meant we had a controlled number of beachgoers which was very comforting during these times. The house: Seaside was spotless and very well set up with games and amenities to keep everyone happy and entertained. The kitchen was very well equipped which allowed us to cook and bake as we please. The management: Laura was an absolute delight to work with. She was very helpful and went out of her way to accommodate our requests and communicate often and effectively. Overall this was the perfect escape! Thank you!

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: Seaside has all the amenities that you need, the kitchen was very well stocked and each bedroom has a full bathroom which is fantastic. You can drink your coffee in the morning on the top deck and watch the sunrise and see the horses. The 4wd beach wasn't an issue for our suburban, however your vehicle needs to have adequate ground clearance as the sand can get quite deep in spots. Bring a shovel just in case as I did but didn't need it. We are already looking forward to our next trip!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay here was absolutely dreamy. The home was clean and well-stocked. The view from the living room was stunning (ocean views all around), and we were lucky to see the wild horses everywhere during our stay. We overheard some folks saying they hadn't seen so many of the horses as they had this year, so we were beyond lucky.This was our first time on a 4X4 beach. I was a little worried about getting stuck in the sand, but we never did. We drove a 4-Runner and a Jeep Wrangler and were just fine.Definitely going to visit again!

Great Experience
The location is beautiful--I thought that driving on the sand would be obnoxious, but the beach travel is a blast. The house is a two-minute walk from the beach--probably the most beautiful beach that I have been to in my (not particularly well-traveled life). Laura was incredibly responsive to our concerns. For example, the dryer went out immediately before our stay, and she promptly had it replaced with a new one. She always responded to my text messages within an hour or two. The house itself met our needs perfectly, with, most notably, a well-stocked open-concept kitchen, dining, and common area, and a deck with a beautiful view. Highly recommended!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Mere words can not describe our stay at Seaside. The house was beautiful and perfectly located. Our stay was delayed by hurricane Matthew, but with the help of the property managers, Laura and David James, we found a place to stay for two nights until we could get to "Seaside". Laura is excellent at what she does and has a way of making you feel like you are her only guest! She made us feel so welcome and hoping for return visits!We would highly recommend using "Carova Cottages" to anyone wanting to experience the 4x4 beach at Carova!The highlights for our stay, were the beautiful views from all the windows and decks and the surprise visit from one of the wild horses that came right to our back door! Truly amazing!! Thank you so much Laura and David!!

Seaside was perfect!
What a great experience all around! Laura was in constant contact as we asked questions about what we needed to bring for our 15 month old grand baby. Everything was just as we expected and then some. I have to say, it's wild driving on the sand! You truly need 4WD!!! The house is incredibly well stocked with everything you need in a kitchen to extra books (my 88 year old mom found a book she thoroughly enjoyed from the bookshelf) in the living room... floats in the pool and lots of chairs, boogie boards, toys... We loved having the beach just over the dune. We would drive our truck to the beach with all the tents, chairs and coolers. Others just walked up and over the dune back and forth as needed to the house because it's right there! We didn't use the pool much but we did have a girls day around the pool while the guys golfed. We do a family Olympics every year and it was fun to have the pool table in the basement. We incorporated that into our family competition for the week. And seeing the horses in various places throughout the week was pretty cool too. Thanks for having us and we highly recommend Seaside at Corolla!!

Absolutely amazing week
I can honestly say this was the best vacation experience we’ve had in years. The location of the house being on the 4x4 beach was perfect. We typically stay in Nags Head each year, but our family truly enjoyed driving and parking down on the beach each day- we will for sure be returning. In the reviews people talked about how remote it is. I did not find it to be too far from essentials and a few beach shops. We felt like it was the perfect balance of a bit less crowded and remote, but close enough to town. I cannot express how beautiful the beach is and the oceanfront views from the house were stunning. Each night we either sat on the beach for dinner or hung out on our porch and watched the water. Mid week we had an issue with the water in the house turning brown. We contacted Laura and she had the water service guy out to us immediately. It took a few hours to resolve, but we were impressed with her swift response to our needs. We had no further problems with the water the rest of the week. The house was thoroughly cleaned upon arrival and we had no concerns regarding covid during the week. The beach is very covid friendly as people naturally social distance. We really could not have asked for a better vacation!

Amazing horse experience
She's not kidding when she says a 4WD vehicle is required. The beach can be sketchy depending on the time of day, traffic, and tide position. However, it was all worth it! The horses came by frequently to wander and munch. It's important to remember that they are, indeed, wild animals. The males are protective of their herd and the moms are protective of their babies. Don't be in the news. The cleaning team was not ideal, but Laura was responsive when we needed anything. I'll chalk it up to the virus, but hopefully she's able to find a better team. After an initial "touch-up", the house was lovely and suited our large group quite nicely. The washer and dryer were critical and the 2nd dishwasher was a great addition. There were plenty of places for the teens to hang out without invading the adults too much. ;-) Good for both. The beach was just over the dune and the pool was great when they were over the sand and the crowds. We could even watch a pod of dolphins from the upper deck! Overall, it was a lovely and relaxing week!
