Welcome to Kahlua Sands!! Come relax and watch the wild horses in this cozy, 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home located in the remote and peaceful 4x4 Carova Beach. There are no paved roads, only sandy trails to explore, sun to soak up, and sand to sink your toes in. One of the best things about this remote location is that you can park directly on the beach, so no need for lugging of heavy beach equipment! There are two beach parking passes included for your stay. ($250 fee if they are lost)
Nestled among the pine trees, this location is perfect for a quiet and relaxing stay, with many ways to enjoy the surrounding nature and wildlife.

The kitchen will have some dry spices, plates, glasses, utensils, etc. as well as a variety of cookware to prepare meals. Sheets and towels are provided but you will need to bring any hygiene products as well as trash bags, toilet paper, paper towels, soap and shampoo etc.
Things to consider:
Please note that there is nothing commercial in Carova, which is what makes it so unique! There are grocery stores, restaurants, and numerous spots for entertainment located "on the pavement" in Corolla, which is about 15 miles or about a 45 minute drive away.
Also, there are no paved roads in Carova and a 4 wheel drive vehicle is required to travel on the beach. Tires must be aired down to 15-20 psi to avoid getting stuck in soft sand. If you are new to beach driving, it is helpful to review the daily tide chart and travel the beach during low tides. Please refer to the Currituck county beach parking driving website for further air down instructions, etc. Gas tanks should be full as there are no gas stations in the 4x4 area. There is a free airing up station located in Corolla as well.
if your vacation goal is to slow down, escape the 9-5, and focus on quality time with the people who matter most; you have found the perfect place!
