The Inn At Corolla Light

The Inn At Corolla Light

10/10 Excellent
"We chose the Inn for the sunset view & were not disappointed. Staff was very friendly & accomodating. Walking distance to everything in the Village &to the beach for excellent sunrise view. Very clean & well kept, however it was October on the Currituck Sound & not unusual to have lots of flying gnats & bugs outside. They were pressure washing the decks & walkways when we left. Will definitely be back."

8/10 Good
"The Sanderling is a nice resort. It sits on the beach and has a great view of the sun rise in the mornings. The staff is very friendly. They will happily setup chairs and umbrellas on the beach for you. The resort is a bit dated. The fencing around the property is aged. The room was very nice and clean. There are a lot of dead bugs and spiders everywhere. The balcony sliding door has dead bugs in the slider which could use a clean up. We did not use the amenities like the pool, hot tub, or gym. There are two close by restaurants next door and across the street. The drinks at the outdoor bar were a bit outrageous. One virgin pina colada and one margarita was $40 with tip. Overall a nice resort but a bit overpriced in my opinion."

"The property was clean and roomy. The hot tub was wonderful, and the beach was easy access. We didn’t see the wild ponies around the property was a little disappointing. We didn’t see them on the drive in."

"We took a 3 day vacation with extended family for the first time. This beautiful 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom home (each bedroom had it's own bathroom) was absolutely what we needed. It's different levels allowed for privacy if you wanted that but also had a huge living/kitchen/dining area with with decks . There was also a second living area on the level with 3 of the bedrooms. Every level had a deck where we spent a lot of time. The 3 and 6 year old were having a ball between the beach, pool and hot tub. Everyone wants to do it again next year!"

"The whole family (my wife, two grown daughters, husbands and two granddaughters) went down to Nomad dunes for the second year in a row. The house has plenty of room for everyone to have space when wanted even though we were all together most of the time either at the beach, pool or family room. Everyone did not want to leave when the week was up and that says it all. The host is great answering any questions in a timely manner. In summation the house is very large, clean and well stocked. 2 years in a row and no interest in trying any other location. Thank you Mike and Chelsea for creating a location that creates great memories. See you next year."
