Whales are known to teach, learn, cooperate and are involved in social conduct, emotions, judgment, and theory of mind. It is thought that only one hemisphere of the whale's brain sleeps at a time, so that they rest but are never completely asleep.

Rest, relax and rejuvenate at “Whale Watch West” and wrap yourselves with a warm, welcoming atmosphere and creative design. Awesome decks provide an advantage to choose whether to sunbathe or be “made in the shade”.

Positioned on a corner lot, only 450 feet to the beach, lovely juniper interiors, panoramic ocean views and four comfortable bedrooms will only add to your contentment.

Socialize, soak and soothe tense muscles in the 6 person hot tub before an evening of entertainment from your TV, video library, adult/kids books or various board games.

This home is a perfect selection for 2 families and Fido too!

House is definitely older but very quaint and a really unique design. Has a cabin feel to it that we liked. It had everything we needed for a really nice vacation. . The house is very close to the beach with a view if the ocean so you can watch the sunrise from the deck. The only less positive comment is that you have to pick up the key code ar the Duck office no earlier than your check-in time. So, with weekend traffic it means another 45 minutes to an hour before you can actually get in the house. It would make more sense to just text the key code so you don’t have to stop in Duck. Otherwise everything was great.

Excellent Value, But Don't Expect Luxury

I will attempt to be fair and objective without injecting opinion here, based on categories that most people look at.... VALUE: Excellent - pricing is more than appropriate, based on the location/convenience factor alone. Whalehead Beach (north end) is literally a 2 minute walk away since this property borders the Perch boardwalk. Pool and hot tub are added bonuses. 4 beds and 3 baths is more than sufficient for a decent sized group (party of 9). CAROLINA SHORES: Dealing with the rental agency was great. They are very proactive and actually do a lot of reaching out to you at each step of the process before you reach out to them, which, if you're busy, this is very helpful. Check-in was easy, we got to the office in Duck between 4 and 5pm and had no issues. HOUSE: I hesitate to assess the house, but feel it should be done, since the photos don't tell the entire story. House is one of the oldest (original to the neighborhood) as you can probably tell from the photos. Nothing special to look at, but we don't care. It has clearly not been updated perhaps even since it was built which appears to have been in the 80s. We don't care about style/decor so much (it definitely has more of a cottage/camp kind of a feel), but the design of some parts of the house is poor in terms of functionality. Bedrooms have very few ceiling light fixtures, the switches pretty much just turn on weak lamps in the rooms (except one BR which has a ceiling fan). Annoying, but not the end of the world. Bathrooms have awful/very dated lighting so if you're a man wanting to shave, it's pretty tough seeing your skin well enough to do a good job. If you're a lady wanting to do makeup that would probably be a challenge as well, but I wouldn't know. Shower liners had mold on them, not covered in it, but certainly enough to make it very obvious. I'll never understand why it is NOT building code in some areas to require bathroom fans for ventilation of the humidity caused by showers, which ultimately causes mold. This is one such place - no bathroom fans to vent the humidity. Other than this, there were several other minor things, including the basketball hoop not being functional, which was a drawback for my basketball playing kids - it looked as if someone backed into it so it was leaning back too far to use. Kitchen floor is way out of level, cabinetry is hurting pretty bad...etc, etc. Overall though, excellent good value and I do recommend if this is very important to you.

Ok, where to start? Umm… there are lots of things I like about this property, but I want to mention a few things that could be problematic to others. There are lots of stairs to this property and the beach, which isn’t a problem for me, but it was a little hard on the elderly family members. The week was really hot! You have to watch out for the upper deck, as the coating gets crazy hot! There were some things not in working order, but we’re resolved before we left. The photos and description on here are not updated. The pool was AMAZING!!!! After a hot day at the beach, I enjoyed relaxing in the cool pool. Made friends with a fox and got to see turtles hatch on the beach!

Everything you could want in a beach house!

House was spacious and clean. Beds were comfy. We found beach chairs and toys, plus a pack-and-play for the baby. The beach was a three minute walk. Pool was clean with surrounding chairs. We loved the house!

Location & Amenities

Location to the beach and Corolla is super convenient (although, be aware that at high tide there is little to no beach in this area). The layout of the house is great for two couples or families. All the amenities are a great addition and make this a super place to stay.
