About this property
Spectacular Views! OCEANFRONT 8 BR, 4 BA Duplex
We are pleased to host you in our cozy oceanfront home, Sea Star. Whether you are looking for a romantic getaway, a fun gathering place for the family, or an exciting fishing destination, Sea Star is the place to be! This lovely sea cottage features two separate sides, separated by an open-air breezeway, so your large family can vacation together, but still have moments of privacy.
Each side sleeps 9 guests in 4 spacious bedrooms, and each side has two full baths, one downstairs and one upstairs. Kitchens on each side have full amenities, and the quaint furnishings & breezy colors bring the essence of the seashore inside! Each side has 3 large flat-screen TVs with Spectrum TV cable and high-speed internet.
In addition to being just steps from the surf, Sea Star boasts million-dollar views from both deck-levels. You will enjoy hours of relaxation on the expansive decks below, and the upstairs King bedrooms offer sliding glass doors and a deck with unmatched vistas of the sparkling sands and crystal water. Sip a glass of wine from the upper deck as the sun sets, then create a masterpiece in the kitchen - with freshly-caught local seafood, of course!
This listing is for Sea Star, whole house (VRBO #1193146), offering both sides, each with 4 bedrooms and 2 baths. If you plan a vacation with 9 or fewer guests, please look for Sea Star East (VRBO #1091861) or Sea Star West (VRBO #1145098) to modify your occupancy options.
