Perfect Vacation Home
We have never stayed in a home that paid such attention to details that made our trip absolutely wonderful. Nothing was overlooked by the owners, and the house is spacious, comfortable and in a perfect location on Holden. We plan to be back, as our entire family was blown away by how incredible this rental is.

Great location for a multi-family getaway
We had a wonderful time at The Saltwater Revival! The space was the perfect size for 3 families (6 adults, 6 children ages 6 months-4 years). The house itself was clean and well-organized and we particularly loved the kitchen, which was stocked with all of the basics and more. You also can't beat the location...only a 5-minute walk to the beach and 5 minutes from multiple restaurants and a playground. Linda and Larry were wonderful hosts and even took the time to send us reminders about trash pick-up days. You won't be disappointed with your stay!

Relaxing Getaway House
We had a perfect stay at the Saltwater Revival! The house is beautiful, cozy, well stocked and has all the amenities to keep adults and kids entertained! The location couldn't be better in terms of access to the intercoastal (where the men liked to escape to go fishing) and the beach. The pool and the downstairs area was such a bonus on days we didn't want to go to the beach! It also provided extra space to spread out which was awesome given that we were a group of 10 adults and 3 kids! Everyone in our group loved their time at this house - there were many a comment about how it felt more like home and not a rental! We created some fun memories and will be back for sure!

Our family has been has always enjoyed traveling and we have stayed in many vacation homes. We wanted to take our best vacationing experiences and find a home to offer those experiences to others. After vacationing at Holden Beach for about 10 years, we started looking for the perfect beach house for our family. I found this home less than a week after it was listed for sale in early 2019. We knew immediately that it was the house we had been waiting on. We are beyond excited to share it with you.
