Family vacation

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: This was a wonderful experience! The house was clean and the amenities were incredible. There was a brief issue where they forgot to include towels upon check-in, but Laura hand delivered them to us within the hour. Exceptional service! The only real complaint I had was that the volleyball court needed some tlc. It was a bit overgrown. But that is just nitpicking. Will absolutely stay here again and I recommend it to anyone who wants to just get away!

Perfect for a large family vacation!

First off the property management is awesome! The house had everything we needed for a big group & room to spread out. We really enjoyed our week and the horses in the back yard!!

This house was amazing and full of amenities! Very comfortable and lots of seating. Loved how stocked the kitchen was but it does need new, large skillets. Would definitely stay here again!

Fantastic Week!

We had a fantastic week at this lovely house. The location and house were perfect. The house was very clean and the kitchen was so well stocked. We enjoyed the pool, hot tub, game room, and crow’s nest! The horses visited in the backyard most days, and it was a short walk or drive to the beach. Highly recommended!

We have rented on Corova for 18 years. This property was one the nicest, well stocked we have been i

The kitchen is VERY well stocked. The water DID NOT have the silver odor we have smelled at other Corova homes. AAMAZING game room and theatre for rainy day. Kept us very occupied!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love the Outer Banks and this house was perfect for our family of 12. Response to any questions were addressed immediately. Only problem is we couldn’t use horseshoes or volleyball because of so many sticky weeds. My Grandaughter ran out there with no shoes and had a ton of thorns in her feet. It needs attention.

Great stay!

Such a great house! We especially loved the size of the home (great for large groups) and remote location. The owner/manager provided clear, concise email communication and a contactless check in/out. We appreciated having 2 dishwashers, 2 washer/dryer units, and used the large water filter daily. The location is remote and we loved seeing the wild horses daily! We agree with other reviews that the property could use some upgrades. For example, the decking shows heavy signs of wear and tear from age and weather. We wanted to use the volleyball court but the weeds/grass were too overgrown. Overall, we had a lovely week and would consider staying here again!

They take care of any issues with common sense solutions. It's refreshing. The home was very clean. I have rented in OBX for many years and this is the first year we didn't reclean anything when we arrived. Overall great experience

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: It was my family, 6 adults & 3 kids. The house was extremely clean & with many extra curricular activities. Games, puzzles, pool table, air hockey etc.. Kitchen was loaded with all kinds off cooking gadgets. 2 refrigerators was really nice. Gas grill was fine but the charcoal grill was in rough shape. Need a new one. The pool was used alot, along with the kiddie pool. Hot tub some. The large dining table was really nice for family suppers. The basement was great for the adults after the kids were in bed. Summary,the best rental I have had since we started going to Carova over 15 years ago. Highly recommended for big families. Now. Carova Cottages & Laura. There is a reason why I always rent with them for the past few stays. Everything was in order, easy booking & always there when you need help. I had a vehicle problem which involved a replacement part by a mechanic at the house. Laura worked with me,calmed me down really,and I was able to get my truck repaired & gone before the next family came in. Laura went above & beyond to work with me through my difficult situation. Carova Cottages & Solstice by the Sea. Great combination!!

Home away from home!

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: Our home away from home! We’re always excited to arrive & always sad to leave. A beautiful, clean home that is well stocked and super convenient to the beach, just over the dune. The kitchen is equipped with everything you can think of, along with beach chairs, sand toys, canopies, and games for the rainy days that is also provided. We love sitting on the porches watching the horses in the yard, grilling out around the pool, and late nights playing pool or watching movies in the theatre room. The owner, as always, did an amazing job updating with new furniture, paint, décor and other home improvements. I look forward to more memories being made at the Solstice by the Sea with our family and friends! M. Anderson

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is beautiful AND has everything you need for your large group to stay! The kitchen is so well stocked with appliances and dishes - you just need the food! The setup is great and there is plenty of room for everyone to hang out together or spread out to different parts of the house. The bottom floor game room and theater room is awesome and we hung out there a lot! The pool deck is perfect and there is plenty of room outdoors for everyone. The beds are very comfortable and the house was very clean. We are definitely going to return. You can tell how much love was put into making this house a very comfortable rental property! Laura is great to work with, as always... she and David go out of their way to make sure their renters are happy and taken care of!

A property worth rebooking

This property is on its way to being an amazing family friendly listing. Our vacation taught us a lot about the things that property owners deal with. However without a great management company the renter can be left with a lot of hiccups. Laura and David at Carova Cottages are the most amazing people to have had the luxury to work with. They are literally willing to do whatever they can to help out even if it’s dropping off extra propane at 1030 at night. Their help, ease, and efficiency of getting in touch with made every question easy to ask and quick to be answered. The horses are visible on any deck and sometimes the pool. You’ll have amazing sunrises, sunsets, and rain storms in the crows nest and screen patio. The kiddie pool was prestine and perfect for our 7/8 yo. We even sat in it. Perfect amount of privacy and yard for quiet fun. Make sure you turn all the lights off at night: To see the stars and rid the side of the house of bugs. The bedrooms are great and bathrooms are good. Kitchen had everything we needed and then some. Overall it’s an amazing place to stay. Laura will help you out with anything but you shouldn’t need much! She made our vacation what it was! Already tons of pool stuff, air compressor, and an ice machine that just needs to be hooked up to water. Enjoy everything! It goes by too fast!

Great Location and Nicely Stocked Home

It's not a perfectly crisp new house and there are signs of age if you look closely, but it has charm that allows one to overlook the imperfections. There are great public spaces in this home - plenty of seating around the TV, at the dining table, and the bonus is the cute nook a few steps up off the family room which always seemed to call to people. There are many outdoor spots from which to take in the beautiful views and enjoy the ocean breeze. Beds were comfortable and there is an HVAC zone on each floor. The house really has about everything you can possibly need - kitchen is stocked with appliances and utensils, water purifier, there are labels on all of the cabinets so you know what goes where. The game room downstairs has a pool table, air hockey table, ping pong table, dart board... volleyball and horseshoes outside. Really, if you get bored in this house you have a problem. Issues - the house presentation was a bit of disappointment when we arrived from previous guests smashing bugs on the walls, deflated pool toys in front of the house, dog waste. We called the mgmt company and they were immediately there and took care of everything to our satisfaction. Bathrooms are all pretty small and lack counter space - this was not an issue for our group, but may bother some. Minor item, but fixable - the door on the fridge swings the wrong way for the kitchen so you're blocked off from the food prep area with the door open. They make the swing changeable for this reason. Simple fix that would improve the livability of the kitchen. We very much enjoyed staying in this house and will certainly consider a return in the future.

Fantastic reunion with something for everyone!

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 had a great vacation at Solstice by the Sea. After two years of missed vacations, it was so nice to finally get together again. The kids loved the heated pool. The adults continued on to the hot tub and then the sauna for complete and utter relaxation! Meals were easy in the well-stocked kitchen with room enough for plenty of chefs! The theater room was a big draw for the multiplayer gaming as well as some late-night movies! There were enough spaces for people to disappear if they needed some quiet, but level three is large enough for everyone to gather with ease. We took the two littles to the beach. The 2-year-old had never played in waves or seen sand crabs! The late OCT weather was still warm enough for splashing in the surf and finding treasures on the beach. We all agreed that Solstice by the Sea provided a GREAT vacation. We are already making plans for next year! :-)

Perfect

This house was perfect for our stay. It was very clean and the kitchen is stocked with everything you will need for the week including a crock pot and blender. The views from the house were great and we saw horses in the yard all through the week! The beach was very close and it was beautiful! This was our first time in OBX and we are already talking about coming back next year! Hot tub and pool were also nice after a day at the beach. We would definitely recommend this house to others. You will not be disappointed! Laura was great and answered all my questions VERY quickly! Thanks for everything! We had a great time!!!!

Very Disappointed in the Cleanliness

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location and the house was well stocked from the kitchen to activities to do. However this house needs a serious deep cleaning. It's very dirty. I u derstand the bugs stuck to the outside of thr house but cobwebs every where inside is not acceptable. The beds were very dusty as if a rag is never used on them. The sheets were cleaned but thst is all I can say. Outside by the pool the step between the kiddie pool and adult pool needs fixed very badly. The house also has a smell to it of mold as if it has gotten wet and by thr looks of thr walls and woodwork it has been through a storm. We actually left a day early do to the cleanliness. The whole family just wasn't comfortable. It would be very beneficial to really give this house a deep deep cleaning and inbetween guests have either more people to clean or a longer time frame this is a big house. Laura was a very nice person and answered all my questions when I called and discussed the cleanliness however it really does need alot of work. It's hard to relax when your uncomfortable where ever you go within the house.

Pure Relaxation

We had another great year at Carova! This was our first time staying at this property and it did not disappoint. I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of “extras” they had for guests! I ended up bringing stuff I didn’t need too (normally it’s stuff properties don’t have). I lug along a big air compressor to blow up pool and beach toys (they had it) I lug along my margarita machine (they had it). Books, games (they had it). Cornhole boards (they had them) A griddle (they had it). That’s on top of the awesome amenities… ping pong, pool, fooseball and air hockey! Our kids had a blast! This was our first time not staying oceanfront and we didn’t mind the change. The crows nest gave you an awesome view for the sunrises (better than being oceanfront) The drive/walk to the beach access was right down the street and very convenient. A few things to keep in mind… the beach chairs could use some TLC or bring your own, the spiders inside the home were kinda a nuisance, we couldn’t get the propane grill to work (but the griddle came through for the win) but the charcoal grill was great. All the bedrooms were amazing but felt the shared bathrooms were small since 3-4 people would share it. Last but not least… this one is for the moms!!! Dual Laundry and 2 dishwashers in the main kitchen were a DREAM! (Plus the basement kitchen had a dishwasher as well) We’d definitely stay here again! Thank you for sharing your property with us!

Best equipped house

….we’ve ever stayed at. Well suited to accommodate a large group of all ages. All enjoyed the wild horses showing up in the front and back yards and on the beach. Must have 4 wheel drive vehicles to access but the ride along the beach is an experience you will not forget. Short walk or ride to the beach. You can park next to your tent or umbrella.
