My husband was asked to come to Corolla to do a family photo shoot for a friend, at the last minute I decided I didn't want to stay in a hotel and wanted to make it a little nicer and add an extra few days to our stay. We didnt need anything big since it was just going to be my 15 yr old son my husband and myself, and this was perfect! It was just as pictured, and described! It's only a short walk to the beach, but if you're bringing chairs, and supplies definitely pack a cart,or park at the Sturgeon parking lot less crowded!! The pool was also nice and was never really to busy. We really enjoyed our stay here, and are glad we chose it, we'd stay again.
