Introducing Twiddy's first home with its very own lazy river styled pool!
This home accepts future year reservations more than 51 weeks in advance. Current year guests are not offered first right of refusal.
"Sound to Sea Beach Club" embodies lavish oceanfront living and design. With exclusive features such as a lazy river styled pool complex, over 12,000 square feet of living space, 16 master bedroom suites, custom showers with imported tile, an elevator and direct beach access, guests will encounter an unparalleled vacation and event venue. Perfect for your event, a 30x60 area is available for a tent on the oceanside of the home between the house and the dune. This home offers both an eloquent backdrop for your special event or unforgettable family vacation.
The design of the home was carefully developed to offer both private spaces for sanctuary and very generous gathering places for socializing and enjoying events. Level three is particularly open and large, with expansive living and dining areas. "Sound to Sea Beach Club" offers two kitchens - both a chef inspired commercially styled kitchen, as well as a large custom family kitchen, with panoramic water views. Two bedrooms and a two-story Olde European Pub rest adjacent to the west and overlook the Currituck Audubon Sanctuary and Sound. All common rooms on this level work seamlessly together to create the ideal setting for any reception. Guests will revel over ocean sunrises in the morning, and may enjoy favorite drinks in the pub as they take in spectacular OBX sunsets over the sound. Decks conveniently flank both sides of the home for this very reason. In between the rising and setting of the sun, abundant sunshine continues to filter into all common areas through three expansive cupolas, with over 50 windows, soaring over 25 feet into the air.
Eight master bedrooms may be found on level two, including a lavish honeymoon master suite. Brides and grooms will appreciate the spectacular design of this room, which is complete with its own eloquent fireplace, dressing room, private soundside sitting area with a wet bar, and a private deck with a Juliet balcony. The suite bath is equipped with an imported clawfoot tub, custom tiled walk-in shower with massaging jets and rainfall showerhead. The rest of this floor is comprised of the remaining seven master bedrooms, which flank a library, and a very large den, complete with its very own stone fireplace and a remarkable "boat bar" which overlooks the ocean. The den area comes complete with a coffee/tea bar to help you start your day. A separate exercise/yoga room is provided with mirrored walls and fitness equipment. The exercise room includes a Peloton Cycle which lets guests join studio cycling classes from the comfort of the home via live and on demand studio sessions with world class instructors from around world! An expansive east facing deck provides yet another place to enjoy the serene coastal landscape and ocean views after your workout.
Level one includes six master bedrooms, a mini indoor kid's basketball court, separate kid's play cave, spacious tiered media room, and a large recreation room with an arcade and kitchenette with a glider window, perfect for serving outdoor guests. The bar area will feature 3 large flat screen tv's so guests can enjoy multiple sporting events while enjoying their favorite drink. Enjoy a game of pool on a billiards table converted from a red 1965 Mustang Car! A double glass slider opens to the pool complex, which offers a relaxing lazy river pool, complete with a swim up bar, as well as a bridge leading to an island in the pool's center. The shallow flat area of the pool serves as either a kiddie pool or a great place to put your beach lounges in the water. The lazy river feature effortlessly glides guests around the circular end of the pool, so they may relax and casually drift around. Of course, they may also anchor at the bar for a refreshing drink. When guests are ready to dry off, they may putt on their very own putting green, relax in the tiki bar, enjoy the large hot tub, play a game of outdoor ping pong, or venture to the dune deck to take in salty sea breeze.
And while distinct characteristics have been liberally applied throughout the home and grounds, perhaps the most notable feature is the area itself. With sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean, Currituck Sound and Audubon Sanctuary from both the second and third levels of the home, guests will find themselves entranced with tranquil coastal scenery.
The impressive array of amenities in this home is well complemented by those offered to guests of Pine Island Reserve. Arriving guests are welcomed by a caretaker who will familiarize guests with the home. Other exclusive features include upgraded linens, daily beach chair and umbrella set up from April 27 to September 26, and more. Guests of this home receive reduced greens fees at both the Kilmarlic Golf Club and The Currituck Club, and for a small fee, use of the Pine Island Racquet and Fitness Center.

Thank you for an amazing week for each of our 37 guests. The home exceeded all of our expectations and we rarely felt the need to leave the property. Too much to do right there. We moved from sunrises on the beach to our lazy river to sunsets on the bay and back to the beach for ghost crabbing at night. We LOVED being on the beautiful beach and enjoyed a much needed week with family and friends to relax and catch up. We hope to spend next summer vacation in this beautiful home - Eileen 8/5/2018

The home is absolutely fabulous! Both décor and amenities were over the top. Our families absolutely loved everything, both inside and out. This home was built and decorated with lots of attention to detail. The owner did a fantastic job of truly making the home a resort unto itself. This was especially appreciated when we had rain that kept us indoors. - Sharon 7/22/2018

This beach house was awesome! It could be summed up in one word: "Wow!" The individual rooms were lovely and I really liked the theme of each room. I loved the size of the dining room table, as we were all able to have dinner together. The house was well laid out, but I would've thought the bridal suite would've been facing the ocean. Also, the pies upon arrival were a nice touch. - Kathy 7/8/2018

This house is amazing. It’s the first house in 20 years of coming to the OBX that our family group of 32 would come back to. The beach wasn’t crowded, the pool was fun, the house has fantastic views. It had everything we needed and then some. We really liked how it wasn’t over crowded on the top floor, but open and homey. The owner had pies for us as well that were amazing. We loved this house. - Christy 6/17/2018

We loved our stay at this home. It was our family vacation as well as the venue for our daughter's wedding and it could not have been more special.

Beach Warning Flags
During dangerous surf conditions, red "No Swimming" flags fly at beach entrances. Whenever red flags are flying, swimming is prohibited. At such times, ocean conditions have been determined to be unsafe and swimmers are at serious risk of injury or death if they enter the water. For your safety, please heed all red flag warnings.
Ocean Safety
Rip Currents
Rip currents are fast-moving currents of water that can quickly pull even the strongest swimmers away from the shore. Since the current flows under water, it’s important to know the signs of a rip current and avoid the water in that area.
According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), indicators of rip currents include:
Be sure to read lifeguard stand signs when arriving at the beach. If you see warning signs of rip currents or moderate or high hazard flags, stay out of the water and alert others to do the same. If caught in a rip current, you should stay calm to conserve energy. Don’t try to fight the current. Instead, swim with the current, and swim toward shore once you’re out of the current.
General Beach Safety
The fun begins where the road ends on this unique stretch of Outer Banks shoreline just south of the Virginia border. A four-wheel drive vehicle and an adventurous spirit are required to explore this beach community, where there are no paved roads, no hotels or restaurants, not even a convenience store! What you’ll find is an uncomplicated, fourteen-mile expanse of wide, sandy beaches, dense maritime forests and marshy soundside coves.
Home to the Corolla wild horses, the possibility of catching a glimpse of these extraordinary creatures is practically commonplace. Keep in mind, they are wild - do not approach them. County ordinance states that you may not come within 50 feet of the horses at any time. Feeding, riding or petting a wild horse is prohibited. A wild horse sighting is always an exciting event, but please remember to use caution and keep your distance.
There are no fixed lifeguard stands on the 4x4 beaches. Three roving lifeguards patrol from the end of the road to the Virginia state line from 9:30 am to 5:30 pm from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
Corolla’s pristine beaches are wide with soft sand. Upon crossing the beach access over the dune line to the beach, you will find that the beach is relatively flat, which is ideal terrain for afternoon strolls.
Bringing your dog to Corolla? Beaches are pet-friendly year-round. Leashes are required, but there are no length requirements.
Corolla Beach Safety:
Corolla Lifeguard Stand Locations:
