CC258: A License To Chill

The house was very nice inside, except refrigerator made too much moisture.

Village Realty was easy to work with. House was great- plenty of space for my family of 10. Currituck Club is fantastic.

Enjoyed the surround sound music throughout the house and pool. Enjoyed the game room with the kids. Excellent location on the golf course. Hot tub was a hit with the adults.

Our entire family of 9 had an amazing time at "Licensed to Chill" in the Outer Banks! We were blessed with perfect weather which made us enjoy ourselves all the more. The house was very spacious and beautiful. The furniture was very comfortable, including all the beds which is very important to us. The bedroom in the front of the house has a beautiful decorative window set high up, but it did not have any curtain which made it difficult to sleep late in the morning because of the sun shining directly onto the bed! The 3 children loved the bunk room and the large adjustable TV on the wall! All other homes that I have rented over the years has always supplied the house with ample toilet paper, paper towels, towels, trash bags however this home was only supplied with a starter kit. Housekeeping did, however supply us with additional items we needed once we asked. The kitchen was well equipped with just about everything we needed by way of supplies. We were surprised to not find any condiments at all, not even salt and pepper, so renters should be prepared to bring their own. Before our vacation date, I was not able to get in touch with Village Realty through the VRBO app until the contacted me approximately 2 weeks prior to our vacation date. Once we made contact, they were extremely helpful with all my questions. I would definitely rent with Village Realty again and recommend them to friends and family.

The house was very comfortable with plenty of room. The game room was great and used a lot since it was a rainy week. The pool area could have been cleaner but someone did come and clean the pool around Weds The golfers enjoyed being by the golf course very mich

We have been anticipating our stay at "A License to Chill" since making our reservation in 2018 for our son and daughter's wedding set for June, 2019. Due to family circumstances we needed to move our stay to 2020 and then a relocation took place and the wedding was canceled and they eloped! We decided to have our family reunion anyway, June 2020, with family traveling for the first time to OBX from the West Coast. Then, COVID-19 pandemic! Fearful OBX would not open it's bridge we thought this vacation was cursed. Fortunately, the bridge opened in mid May and the trip was on! I want to compliment Village Realty for being there in a moments notice when emailed with our complaints or issues with the house. Their staff was spot on and responded right away via email or phone call and the service staff was courteous when attending to our requests at the house. I would rent from Village Realty in a heartbeat because they were terrific and we were also understanding that they probably didn't have staff working for 3 months due to shutdowns. The house was not at it's best upon our arrival and I do feel the owners have some work to do! My list of complaints: No instructions for the use of TV's or video equipment (DVD player has no remote)/radio & speakers inside and out; Trash days were listed incorrectly; Dryer missing temp knop and no lint filter net; Outside shower-knob doesn't work; Master Bedroom screen door broken; front porch furniture was filthy; Kitchen pans are old (especially teflons); Not one knife was sharp enough to prepare meals; Kitchen cabinets, counters, floor & microwafe were dirty; 2nd King bathroom was dirty, spiders found in master king bed & 2nd king bed; cooler with dead lizard and full of water left on deck off kitchen; hot tub was not on and in working order when we arrived; Ant infestation by garage and under hot tub; trash around the house; 2nd king light bulb out around sink. Before our departure on Saturday, we heard an animal in the chimney and emailed Village. As I mentioned, we contacted Village with the more pressing issues for our stay and they were on top of it. I think the owners need to put some love and care into their home and maybe I would rent again. Until then, I'll work with Village and find a more sutiable home for next year! OBX never disappoints, we had a terrific time and the house suited everyone, there was plenty of space and lots to due within the Currituck Club and beyond. Kudos to Village Realty and staff.

We loved this house! It was a great size, plenty of space for everyone to spread out and feel like we weren't on top of each other. The kitchen was so well-equipped... I've never seen a kitchen in a rental have so many different pots/pans/platters/appliances. It was really nice to feel like we could make whatever we wanted. The neighborhood is super nice... loved the amenities, the look of it generally, and how far apart the houses were. The grocery store is beyond convenient. Literally a 5 minute drive to grab something quick when necessary. We would definitely stay here again. The only downside is that it's a bit of a trek to the beach and you can't see any water, any from the top balcony. But, the neighborhood trolley picks you up at the end of the driveway and drops you back off there. Not bad at all... also, there are valets that will carry your beach gear to the sand. Such a nice touch! And it was nice to use the trolleys and not get a bunch of sand in our vehicles. Highly recommend.

Home has a lot of amenities to support the relaxation and entertainment of a couple families, but there are a few things of note. Being early in the season we would have thought the house would have been better organized and prepped but several sliding doors/windows were a problem, some exterior lights weren't operating, interior bulbs missing, some TVs not operating, and the 2 car garage was littered with stuff. Overall its showing some age. One disappointment was the size of the pool. The wide angle lens used for photographing the pool made it seem quite a bit larger than it actually was, so our party of 9 felt cramped with more than 4 people in there. Though the description says there's a TV in the sun room there is not. The TV in the main room is quite small for the space they had, and figuring out all the remotes was a challenging without any instructions provided. I have to say that Village Realty was great when addressing problems (especially the ones we had with the A/C - leaking and out of freon) as they sent some one promptly and had an HVAC guy within a couple hours to fix the problem without us needing to be there. It was also great that we could arrive at the Currituck Club early and hang out at the pool before access to the house at 4. So in summary I'm giving the house 3.5 stars but VR and the Currituck Club 5.

Thank you to the owner(s) of A Licenses to Chill and Village Realty! The house was well equipped for plenty of enjoyment and relaxation! Issues identified were addressed timely! Great location!!! Weve stayed at many homes throughout Currituck Club and Chill is added to our list of favorites!

It was a great week as always in Corolla and we always enjoy the amenities of the Currituck Club. This is a well planned unit and the kitchen was well equipped. However I would suggest the owner clear out garage of stored areas so the garage is functional. it needs to be organized.Same for the closets on the main level. Guest's closets should be free of stored items such as Christmas decorations. Great location and enjoyed the privacy of the pool area. Must commend Village Reality on their spectacular customer service. There was immediate attention to any request. Loved the new check-in process. The hospitality app is awesome. Thanks for a great family beach experience as always.
