Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. 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: Great family vacation. Good location to the beach. Very spacious open area for big group. All the bedrooms were very good size. Only negative was with the cleaning service. Property was missing some linens, one room looked like it was not cleaned at all, and overall house could have been cleaner. However with that said property management responded quickly and rectified linen situation and was more than willing to assist.

Aug 12 week Family Vaca

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. 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: I was notified that the house was ready at 1:47pm but when we arrived the pass code didn't work. When I called the office I found out the code wouldn't work until 4pm. We found hair and grime in a few bathrooms but they sent cleaners right over to take care of it. The pool area was a mess but that was because the previous renters left it a mess. My daughter had hair in her bed. We had to buy a shower liner because one of the bathrooms had just the material curtain. My daughters shower curtain had some mold on it.We loved the layout of the house. The internet was horrid and no ice machines were working. I see in a previous review the rental Co. replied that the owner were looking into getting a ice nachine. I guess they decided against it. Despite a rough start but our family had a great time in the end.

Missed one day due to Tropical Storm Ophelia!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very 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: Summer Winds has private bath with each bedroom, close to the beach access road. The kitchen has one fridge, dishwasher, oven stove and microwave, not enough for large groups. (house could accommodate 22)Dishwasher made a noise that was heard loudly in the bedroom below.The most disappointing thing was the house was generally dirty. One bathroom was not cleaned at all. There was urine stains on the seat, tooth past and hair in the sink. Sliding door on one bedroom was laying on the concrete deck. Outside there was a broken chaise and baby gate. Grill had not drip pan so hardened oils were piled under the grill. There was mold on shower curtains and a blob of mold on the counter near the sink. Rooms with berber rugs were stained and pulled. Dryer did not turn off automatically and the support for one bed in the lowest level broke. What is most disappointing was that many of these issues are noted in prior reviews. The minimum improvement would be to make sure the house is clean!

September 2024 stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. 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: Upon arrival we were unable to access the keypad, but Beach Realty was quick to save the day!! We loved the number of private bathrooms, the pool, hot tub, and the living area. I’d recommend adding to the coffee pot description what size filters would be needed. Over all we really enjoyed our stay, but wish it was a little cleaner.

All the well furnished decks were most enjoyable. The beach is a short walk and groceries and shopping are nearby. The furnishings were all in good condition, and overall the house was quite clean, until you looked under the beds🫣.

Great family vacation in Summer Winds August 2024

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: Extended family of 14 had a great vacation the last week of August staying in this beautiful home. Other than some slow-moving drains and normal wear you would expect the last week of the season, the house is exactly as you see it in the pictures. The only problem we had was cooking for a large group because the stove top burners were not working properly - took forever to boil water. There is a similar comment from a prior year so hopefully it will be fixed/replaced. The house is now well stocked with ice cube trays we purchased and left in the freezer since there is no ice maker in the house. We have vacationed in OBX for years but this year needed an elevator for our mom and we were relieved that it enabled her to move around the house with ease. We are definitely considering renting this house again next year.

Beautiful Beach House with great views!

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: Beautiful and clean Beach House! 5 minute walk to the beach! Great location to shops, adventure golf, and grocery shopping! Pool, media room, and volleyball court was perfect for my family! Kitchen was well stocked for our families. We like to cook. Bedrooms were great with king size beds and own bathrooms. The only thing we would have wanted was a long dining room table. Our family likes to all eat together. The elevator was great to have for groceries and family members that recently had surgery. Parking was great. I would recommend this house to family and friends and would definitely rent it again. Friendly customer service! Trey and Megan were especially helpful!

We had a wonderful stay at this beach house! The elevator and close proximity to the beach made it so easy to get around with kids and gear. The home itself was very spacious, with large bedrooms, a great kitchen stocked with plenty of pots, pans, and dishes, and a back deck layout perfect for relaxing. We especially enjoyed the larger pool, and the quick response when the grill ran out of propane was much appreciated. Having sheets and towels provided was also a big convenience.A few small things could make the stay even better: a larger dining table would be ideal for big family dinners (we had to push a few together to make it work), potholders were missing from the kitchen, and the pool does get shaded in the afternoon. It would also be nice to have a bit more silverware and more hooks around the pool area for wet towels.Overall, this was a great house for a family beach getaway—comfortable, spacious, and so close to the ocean. We’d definitely recommend it and would stay again!

Amazing property!

5 families stayed here and enjoyed every minute of our vacation. We had 12 kids, ages 3-10 and the house had plenty of space & appliance’s to meet their needs (high chairs, packNplays, games, puzzles, etc). The bedrooms are all spacious & well furnished. The pool was perfect and well positioned for our group. Short easy walk to the beach as well. Loved the small town located just 1.5 miles away with the best coffee shop & beer garden. 10/10 for our group!

It is quiet and beautiful but close enough to shopping, dining, etc. The only negatives were blankets that were rolled up in a ball on a shelf in the master suite so we assumed they were dirty. There are several doors leading to the exterior decks that would not lock.

Beautiful week in the OBX

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: Overall we really enjoyed our stay at Summer Winds. There was plenty of room for our group. There are a few updates that we would recommend: pool deck could use some cleaning as there were prickly weeds growing in the cracks, deck boards on the second level were loose or raised which could be a tripping hazard, some bathtub/shower faucets were leaky, and the wifi was not powerful enough for all the tv's and devices that were going. I would recommend getting a second router. We had one issue with a bed support breaking but it was addressed and fixed quickly. We have been staying in Corolla for over 15 years and this was one of the better homes we have stayed in. The location was great and the overall experience with the rental company was wonderful. The home was ready and cleaned well before the 4 PM check in time which was great.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: My sisters and I rented Summer Winds so our families could spend some quality time with our father. The house was perfect for this. The house had spacious and appropriately furnished gathering areas and there was plenty to do. All of the advertised amenities were there and working and we used them! The kitchen was great and we were easily able to prepare and serve dinner for 17. The house was a conveniently walkable distance to the beach. It was our first vacation in Corolla. We found a lot of fun things to do and some good places to eat out. We also want to thank the Corolla life guards and EMT’s who were amazingly helpful and kind when our Dad had a slight medical issue while at the beach. I chose 4 stars for maintenance and cleaning due to a few minor annoyances in that area. The house was truly beautiful, but as August renters we could see some signs of the wear and tear of the rental season.
