Looking for the perfect oceanfront vacation home where comfort, fun, and relaxation come together? “Absolutely Top Dog” is the place where family vacation memories are made! With incredible amenities, plenty of space, and the beach right outside, this home is everything you could want in a coastal getaway. Your furry family members can join the vacation fun, as this home is pet friendly.
You’ll feel right at home as soon as you enter this charming coastal retreat. The spacious great room on the top floor is open and inviting, perfect for gathering the entire family. Picture everyone relaxing on the comfy couches, enjoying good conversation while the sunshine streams in through the windows. The living area is comfortably furnished and offers a gas fireplace for use during the cooler months of the year. An elevator is a big help when unloading luggage or bringing groceries into the home. The kitchen is built for big families and food lovers alike, with modern appliances, plenty of counter space, and all the tools you need to cook up delicious meals. Two refrigerators are ideal for food storage, and two dishwashers are a huge help when cleaning up. Whether you’re whipping up a big family breakfast or preparing a seafood feast, the functional kitchen makes it easy and enjoyable. The nearby dining area offers enough seating for your large group. Outside on the oceanfront deck, sip your morning coffee as you watch a stunning sunrise over the ocean. If you’d like a closer view, stroll over to the private walkway to the beach, which features a large dune deck, which is also a great place to watch the pelicans fly by in the afternoons.
With twelve master bedrooms, everyone will have their own space to unwind. There are five master bedrooms on the third floor, each with a private bathroom and three with access to the deck. Seven master bedrooms are available on the second floor, each with a private bathroom and four with access to the deck. A laundry room with two washers and two dryers is available on the second floor.
Outside on the second level, the private pool area offers outdoor living options for everyone in your group. Take a dip in the refreshing private pool, which features a tanning ledge. When you’re ready for a break from the sun, choose from the shade of the poolside cabana or the covered deck. After the sun sets for the night, enjoy a restorative soak in the hot tub as you gaze up at the stars.
In addition to the main home, the Fun Villa was designed with entertainment in mind and offers two levels of exciting options. Take family movie night to an epic new level in the theater room on the third floor. Feeling competitive? Head to the rec room on the second floor for a game of pool, air hockey, or foosball. It’s the ultimate hangout spot for both kids and adults. A wet bar with a refrigerator is conveniently available for easy access to beverages.
Centrally located in the Whalehead neighborhood, shopping and attractions in Corolla are within a short drive. Enjoy all of the Outer Banks vacation moments at “Absolutely Top Dog” in Corolla!

Guest recommendations
"It is a lovely home. The location is great! Beachfront! The beds were very comfortable. We loved the lay out! The pool was amazing! The best beach house we have rented. Our golden retrievers loved playing on the beach and it was very easy to rinse them off. We will definitely rent next year! Thank you for sharing your home!"
"Location!! Kitchen had everything we needed. The pool was wonderful and we loved the home - it was very comfortable and perfect for us. We appreciate the updates the owners have made on their home and look forward to seeing what they do next. We appreciate that they make renters feel at home and that we can bring our dogs with us!"
"The house is located right on the beach. The kitchen has everything you could want."
"The inside of the home was open and provided plenty of space for three families. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching the sun come up. And the sitting area on the beach access was great. The shower heads to clean off your feet were a great plus! And of course, we all enjoyed the swimming pool after the beach."
"Location"
"Kitchen had everything you could use. Beds comfortable. Lots of space"
"I liked that it was oceanfront, close to many of our favorites in Corolla."
"Great location! Loved the direct access to the beach."
"The location is excellent and the house is nice! Beautiful direct beach access"
"This home was perfect for our family! We loved the location, views, and were extremely comfortable in the house. We look forward to returning again!"
"Location, right on the beach and the pool"
"Great location. Great proximity to Food Lion and other shopping. Love the swimming pool. Best thing is the private beach access -- not having to battle for a spot at the public beach access point is worth every penny."
"Location, pool, house"
"Beautiful location. Home interior has been re-done and is lovely and very comfortable. Pool was great. Love that the pool is not abutting the house which keeps it from being shaded by the house in the late afternoon. We discovered a family of foxes in and around the boardwalk leading from the house during our week and the babies were entertaining to watch when they didn’t know we were there. The lower stairs have been rebuilt which was great. Other sections of the walkway need replaced and I’m guessing it will be done as time, money and labor permits. Current owners have done a lot in 2 years time."
"loved the family room most of all and the privacy..........."
"Oceanfront"
"Quaint & well equipped"
"We had a great stay in this home. It looked exactly as depicted in the photos. The ocean view from upstairs was magical, private beach access worth the cost, kitchen was bright and spacious, and our party of nine adults and one child fit perfectly around the table in the breakfast nook/dining room. I would agree with a previous reviewer that the grounds and pool could use a little attention, but everything worked fine. We appreciated the 8 new beach chairs and 2 new beach umbrellas. We were surprised to find there was not even salt and pepper in the kitchen, no trash bags, laundry soap or dishwasher soap. We left those supplies, but not sure if cleaners remove everything left behind."
"Great house!"
"Great location! Wifi not password protected so couldn't do any work - that info should be given ahead of time so that you can plan for it."
"The house was comfortable and well appointed. The carpets and upholstery showed some wear, and the pool area and backyard could use some tidying and attention."
