    July 2017 The biggest positive was the space we had…read more Comfortably fit 38 family members (2 infants, 3 toddlers, 3 pre-teens, 5 teenagers, and the rest adults). There are enough 'spots' for those who wanted to play games or those who wanted to sit and talk. Don't be fooled by the pics on the realtors website, though. Those were taken when the house was in its prime...several years ago. It's run down and needs attention. First and foremost - a thorough cleaning. It's dirty, some appliances didn't work (restaurant steamer, ice machine inconsistent oven heat), furniture and carpet is stained and the tile around the pool is broken and sharp. There are several other issues, but all are fixable if they would tend to the house better. Might be ok if we were paying off season prices, but not worth 23k+ for mid summer. Good family reunion vacation - but many improvements are needed on this house - and that thorough cleaning needs to be done, pronto.

    Quick notes - price is very high during the summer, and 4x4 is required to get to the house…read more 8/5/2015 Pros A lot of space for guests Beach side location Chance to see wild horses Pool and hot tub Lots of fridges Cons Plumbing-water looks and tastes like well water (we are from rural places around kansas so we know what it looks and tastes like) LOTS and lots of midges Midge corpses everywhere (from the first day we got there) Appliances are under expected quality Over all, I'd say that you might want to look at some other company that cares more about quality than just throwing a bunch of crappy appliances into a over the top house. 3 stars 8/6/2015 Something I just learned We have to put the towels back in the assigned rooms before we leave and we have to clean all the dishes "as part of the check out process". 2 stars 8/7/2015 As we've been staying here we have noticed a lot of bugs indoors. Sense the day we got here I didn't notice a lot of spiders inside. Even the photographer that we hired for my sister's senior pictures said "that is strange, there usually aren't this many bugs inside". 2 stars

    Our experience with Twiddy Vacation Rentals in the OBX was beyond disappointing. What was…read moreadvertised as a premium beach house felt more like the Motel 6 of vacation rental companies. The listing was inaccurate, and several amenities that were clearly advertised were either broken or not available at all. Some bathrooms didn't even have basic supplies like toilet paper. One shower had such low water pressure it was completely unusable. The dishwasher was broken for the entire week, which meant hand-washing dishes for 14 guests, three meals a day, for seven days. That is not what anyone signs up for on vacation. The house itself was not properly cleaned. There were cobwebs on multiple surfaces, visible rust throughout, and an overall neglected feel. For the price we paid, the condition of the property was unacceptable. Customer service was effectively nonexistent. We reported the issues, and nothing meaningful was done to resolve them during our stay. There was no urgency, no accountability, and no effort to make things right. Also worth noting: reviews appear to be filtered, showing only glowing feedback. Based on our experience, you are not getting the full picture when you read the listings. For the amount of money these homes command, expectations should be much higher. We would strongly recommend considering another rental company. You've been warned. Terrible consistent reviews on TrustPilot, Yelp and many other pages. The feeling is clearly unanimous and Twiddy clearly does not care.

    The home was in appalling condition. The air reeked of must and mildew. Filthy blankets had to be…read morewashed upon arrival--completely unacceptable given the cost. Vents were caked with mildew, the bath mat was filthy, and dishes and cutlery had been put away wet and dirty. Dust covered the pendant lights and furniture throughout, triggering allergies for all of us. Absolutely zero effort had been made to maintain this property. The deck was riddled with rusty nails--my children were literally picking them up, an outrageous and dangerous hazard. The pool area was no better: the pavers around it were so scorching hot they became unsafe to walk on. We endured because of a death in the family, but this property was disgraceful. I would never rent again, nor would I trust any property under Twiddy's management.

    BEWARE before you rent from Corolla Classic Vacations by Vacasa!!!!…read more"Cancellation Policy: If you cancel within 24 hours of booking, you'll receive a full refund. After that (unless stated otherwise in the home description and unit-specific terms), if you cancel 30 or more days before the first night of your reservation, you'll receive a refund of any rental payments you've made, minus the booking fee." We reserved a beach house in June 2022 for the next year June 2023. My first payment was $4226 and another payment due in 2023. I cancelled that reservation 6 weeks later. They charged me 10% of my total bill $803. That's some "booking fee" for them considering the house was only off the market 6 weeks one year in advance.

    Extremely poor customer service and responsiveness. Wouldn't answer the phone, wouldn't call back,…read moreand wouldn't reply to emails in a timely manner. You expect to get something of value for your money when you pay almost $4,000 for a week stay. This rental property failed to provide basic necessities and supplies to make an extended stay comfortable. If you're going to require your guests to "...gather all dirty dishes and run them through the dishwasher," then you need to supply dishwasher soap. If you ask your guests to "wipe down the stove and oven daily..." you ought to provide some type of cleaner. Sheets and blankets had holes in them. Most of the blankets had people and animal hair on them and stunk. When we went to wash the blankets the washer turn knob came right off making the washer un-usable. Bathrooms were dingy and dirty. We weren't allowed to put the thermostat lower than 72 degrees which means there was likely something wrong with their system but they don't want to get it fixed. Many of the outside lounge chairs were cracked. The whole experience was disappointing to say the least. We'll be avoiding this home in the future.
