We had a great time at Mellow Yellow for a family vacation. The house is extremely comfortable, with roomy family spaces and great private balconies and nooks so we could have some alone time when we needed it. The kitchen and bathrooms were generously stocked which we appreciated so we didn’t have to buy every little thing a vacation requires. We enjoyed the balconies, billiards, the pool and hot tub and very short walk to the beach. We appreciated the hospitality and great service as well as a lovely, comfortable home. Thank you!
The house was lovely and we had a wonderful time, but am being told I am not getting my full deposit back due to stains on the carpet, though there were no stains at all.

Reviewer Comments:
Mellow Yellow is a terrific property in Whalehead. House was very clean, nicely appointed, and included lots of amenities that other properties don't. My family (of 4) had more than adequate space, and the house could have easily accommodated one or even two more families. My children (10-yo & 9-yo) especially loved the game room with the pool table. Location to the beach access walkway was terrific. Pool / hot tub were great and we used every day. And it was nice that there were beach toys / boogie boards / beach cart etc. for us to use.I highly recommend Mellow Yellow to anyone looking to visit Corolla. We have been staying at properties on Whalehead Dr. each summer for 9-years running, and this was our favorite property thusfar! We look forward to returning next year.
The house overall is great...clean, great location to beach and shopping.
The living room furniture is a bit tired and, if we actually had 8 in our party, there would not be enough comfortable seating in the living room.
That being said, we enjoyed our time at Mellow Yellow.

The rental was ready early which was very convenient and helpful as we traveled from out of town. Everything was clean and organized when we arrived. We loved the neighborhood of Whalehead beach and would love to come back again. There was a maintenance issue which was addressed professionally and promptly, and much appreciated! Carolina Shores is a great company to rent through and we will continue coming back year after year!

My family & I had such an amazing time at Mellow Yellow! It was 8 of us (4 kids, 4 adults) & it was just the right size. It was so nice being so close to the beach & the pool & hot tub where a huge hit! The outdoor showers made it so easy for us to wash up after a long day of being outdoors. We also really enjoyed the game room for some quality family time. I feel like the property is priced just right considering the location & amenities. The owner touched base Sunday to make sure everything was up to our standards, which was really thoughtful. One thing I suggest is getting new beach chairs as the ones at the property were rusted out. This wasn't an issue for us since we brought our own, but just for future for guests who don't bring chairs or need a few to borrow. My kids were so sad when we left! Thank you Mellow Yellow owners & Carolina Shores for making our vacation one to remember!

The house was nicer than the pictures let on. We were very pleased with our overall stay. The proximity to the beach was very convenient with four small kids. The company gave us the wrong Wi-Fi username and password but when we contacted the homeowner she was immensely helpful and got us the right information and that was the only issue that we had.
Great location. Lots of amenities. Great porch. The bed mattresses are awful...every adult had issues to the point that we almost purchased a mattress pad and would have had we thought of it sooner! And I'm 5'3" 120 pounds...I feel so bad for the hubbies that were with us!
Beach is super close and beautiful. The pool was perfect. Lots of pool toys and rafts. Even boogies boards! The game room with pool table was a complete hit! The kitchen had tons of serving utensils and pots and pans to use. There IS a full washer and dryer in the unit, and a coffee maker. No toaster, but there is a toaster oven.

Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Great location, but too many issues while on vacation.
The Property Management company was courteous and responsive to all of the issues that I had to report almost daily. I am not someone that enjoys wasting time complaining especially while on vacation, but some of the issues that we were dealing with needed to be addressed so that my family could enjoy their time away considering it only occurs one time a year. Between the ants in the home, the leaking ceiling in the master bedroom, broken washer, and grill that we could not use; I’d recommend some much-needed TLC go into this home for future guests.

great property and location. Well stocked kitchen. We had a great time. Great master bath but air conditioning vent felt like a refrigerator. TV's are limited and small - an easy improvement we would recommend.
This was a great house for grandparents, parents and pre teens. There was room for everyone, lots of decks, and a reading nook. Beach only a short walk away and plenty of places of interest. Pool and pool table added to the fun.

We found Mellow Yellow to be a wonderful family vacation setting. The location to the beach, private pool,and location on the Outerbanks was exactly what we were looking for in order to unplug from the busyness of life. The house is well maintained and had plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. There is a reading library and games for family entertainment along with a pool table. Plenty of deck space for enjoying the daily sunrise and sunset.
We have never stayed anywhere we had such a fully equipped household. This property is slightly dated and does need some TLC however we would recommend it and would stay here again
