Response from the manager Thanks for taking the time to let us know your feelings. We love to hear from our guests even when they don't have good news for us. Gentle Winds is a very popular property in Corolla that has enjoyed a repeat clientele for years. Your experience with this house is not what others have reported and we regret that. The house is located directly on the soundside of the Outer Banks. An effect of being on the sound is that bugs are attracted to the lights and if caution and awareness is not used it is a constant battle to keep the decks, furniture and porches cleaned. Since your stay the maintenance issues you identified have been reconciled, and the owner has been made aware of your feelings as well. The homeowner just did a significant renovation to the property last year which added a beautiful master bathroom and bedroom to the top floor of the house and expanded the kitchen area too. We hope you return to Gentle Winds and give it another chance. All the best from the beach!

Response from the manager Ms. Campbell, Thanks for taking the time to review this property on Trip Advisor. I apologize that Gentle Winds did not meet your expectations. I note that we did not hear from you about any of these items during your stay so we were unable to rectify any of these issues for you. We would have been happy to do what we can to repair or replace what was needed. Many times things like what you mention occur during a stay and our cleaners, with limited time in the property each week, simply don't pick up on these things and they go unrepaired. The good news is based on your review we have followed up on these items and rectified what we can for future renters. We hope to serve you again in the future! All the best from the beach!
