Description Description
The perfect Outer Banks vacation begins at Once Upon A Tide, a newly built home situated right on the Currituck Sound in the sought-after Monteray Shores community of Corolla. After a day at the beach or exploring town, come home to the open-concept great room where you can kick back and relax with family and friends. A wall of west-facing windows brings the outdoors in, along with an abundance of natural light. Vaulted ceilings make the space feel open and airy, and gorgeous hardwood floors flow throughout the top-level common areas. When you're not trying one of Corolla's fabulous restaurants, use the well-equipped kitchen to prepare meals at the house. The chef in the family will appreciate the quartz countertops and high-end stainless steel appliances, including a gas range.

At the end of the night, retreat to the top level primary suite with luxurious ensuite bath and deck access. The mid level consists of a covered deck with bubbly hot tub along with three additional bedrooms, all of which feature deck access and attached baths for plenty of privacy. Downstairs, you'll find the fifth bedroom along with a rec room that can serve as an additional hangout space. It features a foosball table for indoor entertainment and a wet bar for convenient drinks and snacks. The rec room leads out to a backyard oasis with a sparkling pool and a private pier for direct access to the sound. It's the perfect place for fishing, crabbing, launching kayaks or simply admiring the phenomenal waterfront sunsets.

Located in Monteray Shores, Once Upon A Tide provides guests with exclusive access to community amenities. The clubhouse includes tennis and basketball courts, a fitness center, and an outdoor pool. The Dolphin Street public beach access is nearby, and the Bonito Street access offers free parking. Use the Corolla Multi-Use Path to walk or bike to Monteray Plaza for conveniences such as grocery stores, specialty food markets, gas stations and a coffee shop, plus beach gear stores and rentals. Across the street, you'll find even more shopping and dining options at Timbuck II Shopping Village.

TV SERVICE: Please note that this home does not offer cable or satellite TV service. All TVs are Smart TVs for streaming, and Sonos speakers are available for streaming in all common areas.

Perfect Escape – Can’t Wait to Return! Our group of friends chose Once Upon a Tide for a much-needed girls' getaway, and it exceeded all expectations! Nestled in the private and peaceful Monterey Shores community, this beach house felt like a true retreat. The beautifully maintained landscaping and the long pier overlooking the sound created a serene setting that we enjoyed every day. Inside, the home is tastefully decorated with a welcoming coastal charm. The spacious living room and open kitchen were perfect for relaxing, sharing meals, and playing games late into the night. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed to provide comfort and style, making it feel like a home away from home. And what a treat the hot tub was—such a perfect way to unwind! Another huge plus is the short 10-minute walk to the beach, making it easy to enjoy the sand and surf without the hassle of driving. While this trip was a getaway with friends, we all left saying the same thing—we can’t wait to come back with our families! Once Upon a Tide is the perfect spot for both a peaceful retreat and a fun-filled family vacation. Highly recommend!

The location is amazing. The host and hostess were extremely accommodating. You can walk to the beach restaurants, shops, etc. all while having an unbelievable view of the sound. The house is nicely furnished, has board games and all kitchen accessories. There is plenty of outdoor space like the pool, hot tub and the long pier. The pier is incredible, the place we enjoyed watching the wildlife and sunset. We loved our stay, we will be back for sure!
