“Creme de la Creme” translates to “The Best of the Best”, and upon arrival, you will realize that the name is a perfect fit for this luxurious estate! As soon as you enter the home, it is clear that no detail has been overlooked. From the coffered ceilings to the custom trim, every amenity in this home has been thoughtfully achieved. Every feature of this home has been thoughtfully planned out to ensure an experience of luxury and comfort. Whether it’s the view of the ocean or easy access to the beach, this home was designed to provide you with the most memorable beach vacation. Eleven exquisitely appointed bedrooms are all furnished in rich woods and upscale imported linens, with bamboo flooring and flat-screen TVs. Ten master bedrooms each offer a private bathroom with Italian tile, imported granite vanities and spa-inspired showers. You’ll love the exterior of the home as much as the interior, with all three levels of decks offering stereo sound and a stunning outdoor area including private pool with waterfall, hot tub, poolside bar, and shallow area for the kids, all surrounded by professionally landscaped grounds. A refreshing dip in the ocean or a reflective walk on the beach are just a short stroll away from this gorgeous estate. Located in the Whalehead community in Corolla, this home is close to the heart of Corolla, including shopping, dining, entertainment, and historical activities.
On the top level, floor to ceiling windows infuse beautiful natural light into the great room and offer a glimpse of the ocean. Perfectly designed for entertaining, the living area features soaring ceilings, exotic bamboo floors, ample seating with sofas and arm chairs, seasonal gas fireplace and a 60” HDTV with surround sound. Ocean view dining is available at two tables that seat 24. Doors open to two sun decks with outdoor speakers. The gourmet kitchen is finished with distinctive custom cabinetry, pendant lighting, Italian tile floors, shimmering granite countertops with stainless sinks and casual bar seating. Chef’s skills will come alive when using the stainless steel appliances, including 5-burner gas cooktop with pot filler, double wall ovens, two microwaves, separate full size refrigerator and freezer, beverage center and two dishwashers for easy clean up. Elevator allows you to unload groceries with ease. The top floor is completed with three exquisite king master suites and a centrally located half bathroom.
The middle level offers five elegant bedroom suites, a private media den/office and an expansive wrap-around covered deck. Four master bedrooms are furnished with king size beds, two offer deck access and one has a private balcony. A fifth suite is outfitted with two twin beds and offers deck access. French doors open to a handsome media room/office with a coffered ceiling, bamboo floor, sofa seating, 60” HDTV with surround sound, pub table with stools and direct deck access. Laundry room with double washer and dryer is located on the middle level for convenience.
The ground level is dedicated to indoor recreation amenities, including a home theater with a 120” viewing screen, THX 7.1 surround sound and stadium seating for 12. Those with competitive spirits can gather to test their skills in a stately recreation lounge featuring Italian tile floors, coffered ceilings, billiards table, LED wall-mounted flat screen TV over a pub table bar with stool seating. The media area is comprised of a plush wrap-around sofa for gaming or watching your favorite show on the 60” HDTV with Xbox and blu-ray player. The custom wet bar has a granite countertop with sink, tile backsplash and a host of stainless steel appliances including a full-size refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, and commercial icemaker.
The rec room doors open to unveil a haven of outdoor amenities. A Gunite saltwater pool with waterfall is the highlight of the outdoor area, whose custom design includes two wet decks for in-pool lounging, built-in seating, and an inset shallow area for the little ones. Next to the pool is a resort-style pergola over a hot tub that accommodates 8 and a shaded seating area to create a sanctuary of leisure and rejuvenation. The pool deck is equipped with ample seating and lounging options for sunbathing under clear coastal skies. A cabana bar offers a shady retreat and is outfitted with granite countertops, sink and a gas grill for informal BBQ meals. Casual bar seating is available for eight or meals can be served at an outdoor picnic table. These amenities are surrounded by professional landscaping, outdoor speakers, cabana half bathroom and two outdoor showers.

Guest recommendations
"The house was perfect for all 14 women that go on a beach trip every year at this time. We had to change the date for next year and this house was unavailable but we were able to find one that is exactly the same house so we are thrilled."
"This home is beautiful! Close to beach and plenty of space for our family of 27. The pool area is the best in all of the houses that we have stayed!"
"Creme de la Creme has plenty of space for large groups, yet it offers plenty of private areas for those times when you just want to relax and read a book. The pool area is the go to hangout spot after a long day on the beach. We love this home due to the proximity to the beach access. It makes runs to and from the beach very fast. The newly upgraded beach access is much easier to navigate as well which was a nice bonus."
"Creme de la Creme is a beautiful well maintained home. Our extended family loved and appreciated our week long stay in OBX. The pool area is wonderful with comfortable lounge chairs, the kitchen is well stocked , and the beach access is close by. We appreciate the attention the owners give to their home. Thank you for giving our family wonderful memories for our summer this year."

"Large, airy rooms. Adequate space for people to spread out. Fantastic pool area"
"The pool space, theater room and overall layout of the house were great. Walk to the beach was also super easy!"
"Spacious, clean, lots of amenities. Close to the beach"
"We love this house!! They layout is amazing and allowed for all of us to come together yet enough room to also have privacy if needed. This is our favorite place to vacation"
"We loved everything! The house is beautiful and well stocked. Twiddy was awesome and replied immediately when we needed them!"
"The house was clean and kitchen well stocked with everything you needed. The house was steps away from beach access!"
"Everyone in our group LOVED the pool area and the BEDS!! The house was so comfy we booked same week for 2023."
"Loved the spaciousness and the amenities. Also, liked the fact that the majority of the rooms are masters with their own restrooms."
"Creme de la Creme is a big, beautiful home in a perfect location. This was our 10th year in Corolla and we've found the pool is one of the best parts of this build. Loved the very short walk to the beach. Ice machine is a huge plus that you'll always want once you have and miss greatly when you don't. We keep a cooler poolside so that we don't have to go far and keep from tracking water in the house. The deck furniture is cheap and lacking compared to other homes. Kitchen was well labeled, but the items that were supposed to be inside were not there. Sometimes the drawer would be completely empty. Gas burners on range were very finicky – all or nothing."
Thank you for your stay and feedback. Please note we have purchased new deck furniture which will be installed in November for future guests to enjoy! We hope you stay with us again!
"Well appointed kitchen. Great pool. Lots of decks."
Thank you for staying at Creme de la Creme. We will add a mop and bucket to the property as suggested and have made arrangements to have a contractor clean all patios and chairs on check out days going forward. Some other improvements we made recently are replacing the grill and buying new patio chairs which will be installed in early November. We hope you stay with us again.
"This was the 4th or 5th year that we stayed at the Creme De La Creme. It is just the perfect size to fit all of our family under one roof. We have always found the home to be well-stocked and comfortable for everyone"
"The house was lovely. Decorated beautifully, room to spread out. We were a group of women and it was so nice to all have a bedroom/bath. Loved the fireplace in February!"
