Welcome to How You Dune, a semi-oceanfront, pet-friendly, and beautifully decorated rental home in the heart of Whalehead Beach. This meticulously maintained home exudes a charming beachy ambiance, with a white interior and blue accents that create a serene and inviting atmosphere. With 9 bedrooms, including 7 master suites with private bathrooms, this home ensures privacy and comfort for all guests. Located near Corolla attractions such as shops, restaurants, and activities, this home boasts a prime location. Plus, with beach access just steps away, getting to the shore is a breeze.
The top level of the home welcomes you with bright, open, and comfortable common areas. An elevator makes unpacking and unloading groceries a breeze. Preparing meals for a large group is an easy task in the large, well-stocked kitchen, which boasts two refrigerators, two dishwashers and two islands that offer plenty of counter space and additional bar seating. You can enjoy meals together as a group in the spacious dining areas. After dinner, lounge together in the great room, watch a movie in the theater room, or play games. You can step out onto the deck in the morning to enjoy your coffee and watch the sunrise, and at night for cocktails while listening to the ocean sounds. The third floor also houses a half bath and a king master bedroom with a private, attached bath.
On the mid-level, five additional master bedrooms provide plenty of space and privacy for multi-family vacations. A newly renovated theater room on this level features theater-style seating, a surround sound stereo and a 75-inch screen, making it great for movies and video games. The first floor features an additional master bedroom, plus two more bedrooms, a full bath and a recreation room with a pool table and a full-sized refrigerator.
Spend sunny days lounging by the large 14x30 outdoor pool, which includes a separate shallow area for kids. You can relax in the hot tub or stay cool under the outdoor cabana. The outdoor wet bar is perfect for enjoying refreshing drinks poolside. There are also two outdoor showers for convenience after a day at the beach. For more family fun, enjoy the lighted sand volleyball court.
Visit How You Dune for your next Corolla vacation and return home with memories to last a lifetime! You’ll be "doing just fine" after your stay at this impressive, amenity-rich retreat.

Guest recommendations
"Absolutely everything. It was perfect!"
"How You Dune was the perfect spot for our family reunion. We loved the close proximity to the beach, the built in pool, and the theater room. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked, making meal prep super easy! We loved sitting on the front deck at night listening to the ocean and lounging by the pool after the beach. The kids loved the shallow pool and many games of pool were played! The rooms were spacious and there were plenty of bathrooms to accommodate us. For many of us, this was our first trip to obx and we are already talking about returning!"
"The house was the perfect size and layout for our group. The elevator made it easy to send luggage to the top floor (and also help as relatives grew tired by the end of the week!) We loved that there was grass for our 2 dogs and a spacious driveway. The proximity to the beach was also perfect for us"
"The movie theater and pool table were a big hit for everyone. We liked the large kitchen and even had a cook-off with three cooks . Plenty of room . The oven /stove could be updated as well as some of the pans we had to work with ."
"The house was fantastic. Everything we needed and more. Cake from homeowners was so thoughtful and delicious. The couple of extremely minor issues we had Twiddy addressed immediately and were very nice while doing it! Everyone in our group can't stop raving about the house."
"Our group loved the volleyball court, the pool, the theater room (great for cousins playing Nintendo), the well equipped kitchen, and the proximity to the beach."
"Beautiful home. We loved the number of bedrooms and how everyone had their own bathroom. The outside pool and volleyball area were wonderful. Wish the pool had a heater because it was pretty cold but we made the best of it. The home was very clean and had a well stocked kitchen."
"Very clean and had lots of room and amenities for our huge family"
"The house was lovely. Every space was thoughtfully planned for relaxation. The view was superb!!! We really enjoyed the surprise gift from the owners. Thanks for sharing your home with us."
"Stunning property - the location is perfect! Sunrises, sunsets, and the invigorating embrace of the ocean air. What a magical time. Thank you! We look forward to returning to this oceanside gem next year."
"Plenty of space for everyone! Well maintained. Locations, Nice amenities. Very open."
"We like the size of the rooms and the layout . Many hours were spent in the Theatre Room . The elevator is definitely a plus especially on move I'm and move out days."
"We absolutely loved the pool as it was large enough for all adults and the attached baby pool was just perfect for our 2 and 4 year old grandsons! Appreciated all the kitchen utensils and serving items - we really didn’t need anything else!! Enjoyed the outdoor Bluetooth speakers - so easy to connect."
"We loved the house! Lots of space for all seventeen of us. The baby pool was perfect for my great granddaughter and the volleyball court perfect for my young adult grand kids. The large great room and kitchen perfect for our big family to gather."
"Our family had a wonderful vacation! We loved our home and location. The home had everything we needed and help make the week special."
"This house was perfect. It offered plenty of space, activities and the location to the beach was wonderful. We spent lots of time at the pool/cabana, played sand volleyball, used the hot tub and watched several movies in the theater room. This is one of the best houses we have stayed in!"
"The home was beautiful and the pool area was absolutely perfect for our large group to be able to spend time together. It was great having a shady spot to take a break from the sun under the shaded cabana. The theater room was a nice bonus as we had two days of rainy weather. I honestly cannot say enough good things about the home!!"
"Beautiful home, weather was not great but there was so much to do inside. Wonderful view of the ocean, definitely would love to repeat this trip. My family had a great time. OBX is beautiful area."
"The renovations that were made to the house were amazing! The theatre room was awesome and with the rainy week we had, unfortunately, we used the Theatre room a lot. The cabana in the pool area was nice that we did get to use for a few days. Overall, it is a beautiful home and was perfect for our family! One thing that I would suggest, if I had to say anything would be, if the pool was heated. We go early in the year and this year it was pretty chilly for most of us to go in the water. But besides that, it is an awesome house!"
"Great stay! Spacious house, worked very well for our large group. We loved the elevator, volleyball court, and the ability to take pets. Wonderful location. Small things were a little disappointing. Jacuzzi tub in master bedroom was broken, mattresses could use replacing, very few trash cans or bathmats. We found the Twiddy staff to be very friendly and helpful."
"The new owner sent us a cake while staying there. Thought that was a nice gesture. They are doing some renovations on the home and so far it looks great. The only suggestion I have is while renovating look into some new beds. A couple of them were a little rough to sleep on. I would stay here again."
"Very lovely and spacious! Large pool with separate kiddie pool and hot tub. Kitchen was well stocked with all necessary items and ample dinnerware for a crowd."
