Con una nuova passerella privata dalla piscina con vista sull'oceano sulle dune e direttamente sulla spiaggia, questa splendida casa con vista sull'oceano è stata costruita il più vicino possibile all'oceano ed è stata progettata su misura per massimizzare le eccezionali viste sull'oceano da ogni stanza.

La casa dispone di 4 suite matrimoniali sul lungomare, 3 camere da letto aggiuntive sul lato ovest della casa e 8 bagni, tra cui la cabina a bordo piscina.

Distribuisci i tuoi asciugamani, la tua tenda e persino il tuo box (dall'armadio per bambini della casa) sulla spiaggia alla fine della passerella privata per una giornata di abbronzatura e di gioco tra le onde dell'oceano ruggente, tutto visibile dalla zona giorno rialzata, sala da pranzo , Sala per la colazione e camera da letto principale dai membri del tuo gruppo che preferiscono o hanno bisogno di rimanere all'interno.

Quando è il momento di rilassarsi all'ombra, torna al tuo "Castello" dove puoi giocare nella piscina fronte oceano 40 'x 20' con piscina per bambini elevata e cascata 4 'o leggere sul ponte della piscina, uno degli altri 4 ponti o in la biblioteca-- luoghi privati anche con grandi gruppi familiari.

Guarda il tuo programma o film preferito sulla TV 4K da 65 "con audio surround nella zona giorno rialzata o gioca a un gioco competitivo sul tavolo da biliardo professionale.

Per un ambiente più tranquillo, siediti sui bilancieri o sull'aliante sui ponti sull'oceano e lascia che gli stress del mondo scivolino via al ritmo confortante delle onde ondulate. Oppure, dai ponti sui lati nord e ovest del tuo "Castello", lascia che la tua mente scivoli sui racconti delle Outer Banks mentre osservi il faro di avvertimento dello storico faro di Corolla che guida i pescherecci nei loro giri notturni lungo la costa.

Castle by the Sea

Truly enjoyed our week long stay at Castle by the Sea. Excellent beach front location close to a large public park in Corolla. Walking distance to stores and restaurants made it convenient for everyone in our party. The house was very clean and well equipped with everything necessary to enjoy the beach, pool and summertime fun. The well equipped game room was popular with the teens in our party and the pool and hot tub were great when we were not at the beach. All bedrooms were freshly cleaned and very roomy. The house was very spacious with plenty of room in the family room and dining areas that allowed us all to have meals together. Bikes and beach toys were also provided. I would highly recommended this property for any family looking to enjoy the beach, pool and making a memorable summertime vacation.

Family Beach Trip

We loved our stay at Castle By The Sea! There’s plenty of space for a family, to spread out and enjoy private time as well as family togetherness. The owner is very reachable and attentive to any problems that may arise. The attention to detail at this property is superb with directions on using everything from the remote controls to the coffee maker…which we fully appreciated. The kitchen is labeled for ease in finding and returning things to their proper place. The house is laid out so beautifully for viewing the ocean from everywhere. And the pool…..magnificent. We highly recommend this home in Corolla- Castle by the Sea.

Great house & location for our family of 13

Great house and location for our family of 7 adults, 1 teenager, and 5 children 12 & under. Lots of bedroom and bathroom options, pool, hot tub, game room, large dining table, books, games, and all the amenities. Great ocean views from great decks. The expansive beach really is just over the dune behind the house. Corolla has everything we needed. Some of the commercial activities may be more of a drive away, but we didn't need those things. The house decor is slightly dated, but that had zero impact on our stay. 3 stories, so get ready for some effort by old knees. Great for our family and we would rent that again!

Fun Family Vacation

We had the best week in this Castle by the Sea!! The layout of the house was perfect for a family, with ample cooking space in the kitchen, and tons of room for family meals and games in the dining room area. The bedrooms were all well sized and very comfortable. One of our favorite admiring activities was sitting on the top deck with our coffee watching for dolphins. The pool area was perfect for our group with plenty of space to spread out. It also gets late afternoon shade which was perfect for when we were ready to get out of the sun, but not quite done playing for the day. The beach was just a short walk away, which was perfect for families with little kids who can’t decide where they want to be. Also, after dinner time, the beach was very quiet, leaving plenty of space for afternoon beach games and quiet gatherings to watch the stars. There is plenty to do right near the house if you want to get out with restaurants, putt putt go karts and grocery stores all right within a 10 minute or less drive. If you have littles, this house has so much for them! Indoor and pool toys as well as DVDS. We did have an issue with the one of the AC units, but I only include that to say that the owner was very quick to respond to get someone in for a fix as soon as possible. These things happen, but the response time was very much appreciated. If we make our way back to Corolla, we will definitely be looking at staying here again!

Rental in Corrola

The house was very spacious. It gave everyone their own space if they needed it. Loved that it was on the beach and we had perfect weather the entire week. Lots of activities close by. The house itself could use some sprucing up but we enjoyed our week in Corolla. The biggest drawback is the speed limit on the road to the house. I would recommend the property!

Perfect spot for relaxing

This house has everything you need plus some. The pool was amazing. The sounds of the ocean are literally all through this house. The board walk takes you almost to the water if the sound isn't close enough. Sun rise and coffee was my favorite every morning. The updates on the house are beautiful. What I loved most was the new decking they are upgrading. Not just because the deck was beautiful and the design is magnificent, but the owner himself was doing it. He is a hard working man and what America was founded on, dreams. This home was his wife's favorite, her art still hangs in the house, and the love they have for family shows in every room, detail, and extra amenity they added. Some you won't see listed in the details. I will loved to have my family back again next summer. If you get a chance to stay in the castle by the s sea be sure to decorate a family shell to add to the basket in the library.

Castle has what you need

Great location. Great house layout. All the amenities that you would need. Gameroom with retro arcade fuzzball and pool table was enjoyed by all. Owners have thought of everything for a great vacation. There were a couple issues that did not bother us. Other reviews mention the cleanliness of the house. It is little dated and could use a little work. New kitchen counters being installed apparently which will make the kitchen very nice. Two things that are good to know for future guests. One is that the hot tub is not available except during pool season which is a shame . The other thing is that it is listed as a seven bedroom however 1 of the bedrooms is a small room accessed through the master on top floor. It would work well for small kids but i don t think an adult would enjoy it as there is only a crib and daybed in the room. Overall i think this home is great for a family vacation and the owners are quick to respond to questions

Filthy

If you want a clean house, this is not for you. If you want basic necessities provided such as toilet paper, paper towels, soap, and enough towels for each bathroom, bring your own. If you don’t mind dirty windows and hermetic seals broken, then you’ll be fine. If you don’t mind cobwebs dangling from the light fixtures and ants in the food-stained cushions on the chairs, then go for it. I was shocked upon arrival, and within ten minutes of entry, contacted the owner who really didn’t seem surprised to hear from me. He did send the pool maintenance person and the owner of the house cleaning company the next day. This put us in an awkward position, having to greet these folks who were clearly irritated to have had complaints waged against the house that they are supposed to be maintaining. We had to listen to their stories about how the owner doesn’t pay them enough to do the deep cleaning that is needed for this property. The pool person was especially belligerent saying “I hope your kids enjoy the hell out of the pool!” There were beer bottle caps, cigarette butts, and even a pair of boxer shorts around the perimeter of the pool and he tried to tell us that those things weren’t there the day before. (Strange thing is, he never cleaned up those items even after we pointed them out) The owner defended him saying he is such-and-such in the community. Doesn’t matter…the guy was angry and rude. The entire back side of the house has mold spots on all of the white woodwork – we envisioned sitting out on the decks enjoying the view, but you’d literally have to face outward and not look behind you because you’d see dirty cobwebs and mold on the house. I wish there was a way to post pictures, as I did take several. Upon notifying the owner, he offered an extra night if we didn’t give a bad review. I declined and have decided to tell the truth about this property so that no one else wastes their hard-earned money on a place for their family vacation. This was a once in a lifetime event for us, and I couldn’t have been more disappointed in the house itself. To be fair to the owner, he immediately offered a full refund if we found another place right away. Many other issues, but not enough room here to post. I’m only doing this to spare another family the disappointment we experienced.

From 5to 68 we all had a wonderful time! The house was very clean, room for all 11 of us! The pool was ready and heated as we requested. Couldn't be closer to the beach. The weather was awful the 1st couple of days and we still enjoyed every minute! Thank you for a wonderful time!

OBX Family Vacation

House is a little dated but very spacious with nice ocean views from the top level. The dune is high so the ocean view from the middle level bedrooms are not great views. The house is very close to the beach with some steps but easy access. The beach is very nice and clean. We enjoyed the beach immensely. As stated the house is a little dated but the price paid was fair for the house size and location so our only disappointment cleanliness was our only Our only real disappointment was the cleaning service. The carpet seemed to be okay but the other floors were very dirty. After a few minutes our feet was black from the floor debris. The windows were very dirty with limited visibility. The We had to drive 45 minutes to Walmart to purchase cleaning supplies and mop.

This property has a great location. The rooms are actually larger than they appear in the photos. Our family had a wonderful vacation here, even though the weather was terrible! It’s great beach house with plenty of space to spread out even when you can’t go out to the beach.

Perfection

The house was just right for our large group with a nicely laid out variety of bedrooms and a large, open floor plan on the top level for socializing and dining together. Decks on bedroom and top level overlooked the pool, hot tub, and ocean, in addition to the decks facing the street. It was easy to have alone time or socialize throughout the week. We barely used the basement at all beyond the second refrigerator, but if there had been bad weather or kids with us the video game setup, pool table, and foosball would have been used. I would recommend spending the extra money to turn on the pool heater for your week; we opted for it partway through the week and really appreciated the extra warmth. The owner and everyone we interacted with such as the pool man and linen service were friendly and quickly responded to our requests. We are already talking about our next trip to Castle by the Sea.

Family Memories

When pulling 4 families from 3 states with 6 little ones under 10; it’s so refreshing to have all the amenities required at your fingertips. Private beach access, pool, hot tub, even a toddler pool - what more can you ask for? Each family had a suite of rooms for privacy too. From crab chasing at night to watching them catch sharks from the shore - what a fabulous vacation. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Absolutely Breathtaking!!!

The house truly is a castle by the sea! The initial veiw of the house is a breath taking blue. It's wide steps welcoming the weary travelor home. From the outside to each inner wall any guest can see a lot of time, thought, and detail went into this palace. Due to traffic I arrived at night after my family who lit the lights. It was gorgeous and so pretty, brightly shining against the dark night sky. I found myself in awe as I climbed the steps and entered the home. I decided to start at the top for the begining of my exploration, so I immediately climbed the stairs to the left of the entrance. Huge windows that gave a perfect view to the ocean greeted me as I reached the last of the steps to be at the highest point. A beautiful deck sat beneath the windows inviting me to get fresh air and to truly appreciate being beside the ocean. The roar of the waves was a welcome note. Inside you could barely hear what was happening outside. All the rooms are beautifully decorated with their own unique design. My whole family was unanimous in is the perfect vacation home. To live there forever would be very pleasant indeed! If I could I definitely would and I would be perfectly happy. This house had so much space and was so quiet between floors and walls that even though we had so many we felt at peace and even alone at times! Our group has multiple families with a total of 8 children from teens to toddlers and we only found each other if we wanted to. Everyone had plenty of room and space to spread out and safely explore without seeming too enclosing to the little ones. The pool was perfect for our mixed aged children, a wading pool for our tiny tots and a larger pool with varying levels of depth. Hot tub was awesome for night time as it got cold out. When inside you would find the kids and teens in Billard hall in the basement either playing pool, foosball or on the arcade 4 player game system. Sometimes in the library upstairs.This castle saw to our every need and the different types of people in our families. Had a fully stocked kitchen with everything you could want/need. The best part is on the walkway to the ocean a large wooden stairwell led us away from the castle to the Sea, however halfway there is a sweet spot where you can look back upon the balconies and beautiful blue home.

Beautiful views

Beautiful views.. The views are magnificent from the deck.. we thoroughly enjoyed sitting and watching just the water and the helicopters go by.. the house is very very spacious but there is a ton of stuff that needs to be updated and the house was not very clean at all when we got there... there were two people for the cleaning crew only and they left an hour before check-in because we did get there early and they went ahead and left early we had to go behind and clean a ton of stuff up from just the cleaning crew... and the vacuum cleaner did not work... I was told there were two in the house but only found one.... so we went out and bought one ourselves... we had to re-wash dishes from the previous people who stayed there because there was food that was still on the cookware so we had to scrub dishes before we were able to use... there was a lot of glassware instead of plastic which made us nervous because of having children but we made it through that... the pool is beautiful it’s one of the bigger pools in the area but just there is a ton of stuff to the house and to the outside pool area that really do need to be modernized and updated other than that as far as the owner communication was a bit iffy... I felt that the owner was very upset with me and told me it was our problem basically if the house was a mess that we were the ones bringing in dirt.. so I wasn’t real happy about that... they never came to clean the pool or clean the hot tub we had to add water ourselves... I was told a person would come over and look at the vacuum cleaner never saw that person the pool we paid to heat the pool of almost $500 for a week which I thought was outrageous but we had small children and I did not want them getting sick and we had to actually call in a maintenance person because the pool the next day after day two felt a lot cooler than day one and that’s the only time we saw the pool person was for the heating no one ever came to clean the pool.. no one ever came toclean the hot tub so just the cleanliness and the response of getting someone there if you have an issue was a problem.. I called first thing in the morning on the pool no one came till late afternoon for the heating of the pool... I would say the house on a basis of 1-10 space and the views are magnificent at a 10.. the cleanliness of the house & response time of the owner and maintenance/repairs as far as anything that may need to be done I would write that as a 4

Informazioni sull’host

Host: Bill

Immagine del profilo dell’host
Our four children and Father-in-Law (who lived with us until he passed away at age 96) all enjoy the many faces of the ocean--from calm blue waves lapping on the wide beach to churning whitecaps generated by storms at sea.

After vacationing on the beaches of New Jersey as children, we enjoyed our first family reunions on the beaches of Delaware and Virginia which were too crowded for us. We then moved our reunions farther south to the clean, family-friendly beaches of North Carolina.

Renting first in Duck for a couple of years, we started moving farther north each year in search of larger homes with more amenities and less crowded beaches. After many years of searching, we found our perfect beach community—Corolla. This community offered some of the nicest homes on the Outer Banks with less traffic and uncrowded beaches because it was literally the “end of the road”. North of Corolla, there is no asphalt road; transportation is by 4 wheel drive vehicles driving on the beach.

During our vacations at each of the houses at which we stayed over the years, we made mental notes of features that had worked well for the three generations attending our family reunions. When it was time to build our first beach house, “Castle in the Air”, Bill devoted over 600 hours on a CAD system to incorporate the best features from each of those houses.

We understood the importance of addressing the varied needs of individuals during a multi-generational vacation. Children need an area in which to be children and to play without infringing on the private space required by some adults using the vacation to de-stress. Comfortable beds for all, multiple TV’s so everyone can simultaneously watch their favorite shows, a quality sound system for listening to music, a fully-stocked kitchen with an excellent ocean view, a quiet Sun Room overlooking hundreds of acres of an undeveloped Estuarine Sanctuary.

Bill satisfied all of these requirements in designing the house after which he

Perché ha scelto questa struttura

Following three years of rave reviews by our guests at "Castle in the Air", we decided to build a second, larger home as close to the ocean as federal and state laws would permit. Using the floorplan about which our guests had showered us with compliments at Castle in the Air, we bumped the exterior walls out 3 feet in each direction, adding almost 2000 square feet of living area: a Breakfast Room overlooking the oceanfront pool and the ocean, three master bedroom bathrooms with two person spas overlooking the ocean and an even larger heated, inground, gunite pool—this time with a separate heated baby pool and oceanfront cabana with a private walkway directly to the beach.

Again, Patrice chose the interior furnishings and decorated the house with her unique, artistic beach décor that she offers for sale at her Etsy shop, Sea Treasure by Patrice.

This larger, oceanfront property we named, “Castle by the Sea”. Designed for multiple generations, this property has also consistently received outstanding reviews by guests—many of whom return year after year to enjoy the upgrades we add to the house during each offseason.

Cosa rende unica questa struttura

Castle by the Sea was designed to accommodate multiple generations. With four master bedroom suites that overlook the ocean and two additional bedrooms on the West side of the house that can easily accommodate two more adults and six children, the house is comfortable for extended family groups.

The open kitchen was designed with a center island that serves as a gathering place for the family while the cook has both company and excellent views of the ocean.

The library is a favorite of grandparents and those who enjoy a little quiet time while easily participating in all of the family fun.

The middle level is for sleeping, and the ground level is for recreation, particularly suited to children, teenagers and men who like to play pool. The pool table overlooks the oceanfront pool, and the cabana from the oceanfront pool opens to a private walkway onto the beach.

We make improvements to the property each year. For example, during recent off-seasons, we installed new tile in the kitchen, upgraded two of the bathrooms with new tile, vanity and fixtures. We installed a 65” 4K TV in the raised living area, a 53” HD TV in Master Bedroom 31 and a 40” HD TV in the Game Room.

We also repainted the interior of the property and completed a new commercial quality walkway from the oceanfront pool cabana over the dune and onto the beach. In this way, we like to keep our properties current and comfortable for our guests.
