We just returned from 2 wonderful weeks here. The house was nicer than the pictures suggested, clean and comfortable. We loved having the heated pool and were especially pleased with the pool service, which came twice a week to clean the pool and hot tub. The owner was very accessible and easy to work with. We hope to come back next season.Recommended for: Families with young children, pet owners, age 55+, families with teenagers.

Just got back from a wonderful week at Cravin' Corolla. When we got there, we found the grill was almost out of propane, so we texted and within 2 minutes (I am not exagerating) a new tank was brought. Amazing customer service. Very impressed with the house. We could have easily fit two other families.-- The kids loved the pool. The walk to the beach was very easy, even with several children and lots of stuff to take.-- Also loved how close it was to things. We went to the lighthouse and the park by it which was really nice. Would definitely go back.Recommended for: Families with young children, adventure seekers.

This is the second year my husband and I stayed at Cravin' Corolla and were just as pleased as the first year! We brought along two other families and the kids (big & small) had a blast! The heated pool is such a bonus and the house is perfect for entertaining or relaxing. Great location close enough to the ocean, but an easy walk to the lighthouse. We can't wait to return next year!!Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, families with young children, pet owners, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

Cravin' Corolla was just what we needed after the long NY winter! The house was very large and well kept. The heated pool and hot tub were a great alternative to the cold April ocean. The location of this house is ideal, with a short walk east to the ocean or west to the park, lighthouse, museum, and shops. The owner was great to work with, quickly answering all of our questions about the house and responding to our needs. We highly recommend this house and hope to visit again soon.Recommended for: Girls getaway, families with young children, pet owners, families with teenagers.

My family rented this home for Thanksgiving this year. We had about 13 people in the home. This was my first experience in vacation rentals and the owner made it a great one! I was please with the home and all of its amenities. The home is located in a beautiful area and is within walking distance to the beach. We left the property talking about coming back in the near future.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, girls getaway, families with young children, families with teenagers.

Cravin Corolla was by far the nicest vacation spot we have ever rented. It is in the perfect location. A short walk to many attractions. The beautiful, clean beach is just a 1-2 min. walk. I will add that while our group had 6 children under the age of 6 this house was spacious enough for all of us. The pool, hot tub, and game room were a hit but, as a parent I loved that the door to the pool had an alarm! Great kitchen for cooking fresh seafood from the nearby seafood stand. We are in love with this area of Corolla and Cravin Corolla. The kids cried when we were leaving their "favorite beach house" and continue to ask when we are going back!Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, families with teenagers.

I just got back from vacationing at Cravin' Corolla. It was great fun! The living room was so comfortable and we relaxed by watching a different movie every night on their big screen tv. The beach was well within walking distance and our dogs had a great time digging in the sand. Checking out the stars in the nightsky while on the beach is a definite must! We also enjoyed the delicious pizza across the street at Corolla Pizza. We definitely look forward to staying here again. :)Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

We have vacationed at "Cravin Corolla" 4 times over the past 7 Summers. We alwaysa come back to the place that feels more like our home away from home. We take our 4 kids and allow them to bring friends. The house is great and allows us to keep the older kids downstairs with the pool table, PC and pool while we can relax upstairs in the family room and kitchen area. The house is a short walk to an uncrowded part of the Corolla beach. The kids love to spend time in the hot tub and play in the pool and I sometimes have to remind them to walk to the beach. The street is quiet and kids can walk or bike without worrying about cars. There is a convenience store within walking distance just across the road for emergencies along with Corolla Pizza which has some of the best Pizza and Subs anywhere (I think they are from Philly). We love to go on the 4-Wheel drive beach which is about a 1/2 mile away. Go early in the morning or a dusk and you can see the wild ponies. The lighthouse is also a short walk away and is especially fun at 4th of July when the town has a fireworks show. Carvin Corolla and our annual beach vacation have given us many memories and a family summetime tradition that I hope to continue for many more years to come. I highly recommend this house for anyone looking for a relaxing family vacation that you will remember for many years to come.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

About the owner: My husband and I fell in love with Corolla about 10 years ago when we joined some friends for a long weekend and stayed at a bed and breakfast there. We live in Virginia Beach so Corolla is a short 2.5 hours drive, which works out well for our busy lives. We have 2 daughters and frequently stay at Cravin' Corolla for family vacations, holidays and long weekends. We love being so close to the beautiful wide beach and being able to walk to the Lighthouse, Whalehead Club, and Wild horse musuems, there is so much for us to enjoy and do all within walking distance.
Why the Owner Chose Corolla Village:
Corolla is such an untouched beautiful beach village!! We just love it there and love the families that choose to vacation in this area, all very family oriented folks! You can't beat having the gorgeous sound on one side and then the Ocean on the other, all within a few yards of our house. The beach is about 200 yards away and the Sound is about 350 yards away..We love it here!
The Unique Benefits at this House:
Walking distance to all of the Historic Museums and shops of Corolla, seeing sunrises on the ocean and then being able to watch the sunset on the sound (short walk to see both). Being 1 mile from the 4x4 beach access, it is so much fun to drive on the beach, probably one of a few places in the Mid-Atlantic that you can still do that! Being 4 miles away from Timbuck II where there is even more family entertainment and major shopping!
