About Sanford Leake
Sanford and I have loved the North Carolina coast for most of our married life (50+ years) and especially Sunset Beach. We purchased this lovely villa after we retired from corporate life in the greater Chicago area to use as an escape from the bitter winters. We enjoyed the North Carolina climate so much we later moved to the greater Raleigh area. We have enjoyed sharing this peaceful get away with family and friends and now would like to share it with you. Welcome!!
Sanford Leake purchased this Villa in 2012
Why Sanford Leake chose Sea Trail
After an extensive search of Florida, North and South Carolina, we chose Sea Trail Plantation Resort in Sunset Beach, North Carolina because it offered the three R's (rest, relaxation and recreation) in a beautiful lush setting. Whether it is morning coffee on the Lani, golf out the back door, swimming out the front door, watching the sun set on the completely handicap accessible beach, yoga or exercise at the convenient Sea Trail Activity Center, everything is close including a wide variety of restaurants (menus available in the villa). When we are looking for more adventure we head south to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina (just 15 miles away) for daytime and nighttime entertainment. Sometimes we spend the day at Brookgreen Garden (just south of Myrtle Beach) enjoying a wide array of flowers and the outdoor art gallery. Also, in the same area, we explore the history of the old South at Hobcaw Barony. Sometimes we head north to the charming seaside village of Southport, NC. After a pleasant lunch at Fishy Fishy, we board a ferryboat to either Fort Fisher to visit the NC Aquarium to learn about the local marine life or take a ferryboat to Bald Head Island to climb the Bald Head Lighthouse for a spectacular view of the area. Or how about a day deep sea fishing. You will find a comprehensive collection of travel information available in the villa to help you plan your adventures. Enjoy!!

Absolutely gorgeous and awesome location
The property is a first floor, ground level, end unit. This means a lot of windows for lots of natural light in the main suite. The place is actually 2 suites, the main suite with the master bedroom with attached full bath, bedroom has 2 full (or queen, I don't know for sure, but plenty of room as we normally sleep in a king, sorry) size beds. The kitchen, well stocked although limited area to store any food - but how much do you really want to cook anyway? The dining area had 6 chairs and the living room has the fold out couch and 2 really comfortable chairs with the TV. The sun porch has 2 sliders to go in and a door in it to go outside. There are a few chairs and tables out there on the porch as well. The porch is fully closed in with movable windows, sorry don't have a better way to describe them, but they open just about fully from top down or bottom up or even split in the middle with half up and half down, really cool. By the main door is also a washer and dryer - was very handy when returning from the beach
There is a double door, one from each room, to separate the 2 suites. The second suite is more like an efficiency apartment. When you enter from the main outside door (one for each suite) the full bath is off to the left and then you enter the bedroom area with 2 full size beds. Then a small living area with a fold out couch again with a kitchenette area.
Overall awesome stay and really close to the Sunset Beach bridge. I ran one morning from the condo to the top of the bridge and back - round trip running was just over 4 miles. There were 6 of us staying and we ate breakfast at the condo every day. There was plenty of room to move around and relax at the end of the day. There was plenty of room and never felt crowded. The decorations are beach oriented and overall condition of the 2 suites are excellent, no worn out furniture or anything. Very comfortable and I hope to use this place again when we return to this area. I rate it 5 stars as an outstanding condition, location, setup, and appointments. Very very nice. Thank you to let us use your home away.
Paul, it is always a treat to have guests enjoy our condo as much as we do. We would love to have you visit again anytime.
Thanks so much for your positive comments.
Perfect Getaway
It was so nice. Unfortunately, it rained most of the time, but there was so much to do in the area, aside from just going to the beach. We had a lot of other family in town from around the country, and many of them paid more than we did, and our Villa was MUCH nicer than their places. It was clean, comfortable, quiet, and convenient to everything. Sandra and Sanford were incredibly easy to book through and communicate with. The entire property is gorgeous.
One small issue: spraying for bugs. My parents stayed in the mini suite part of the villa, and they had found multiple spiders and cockroaches. However, being in this kind of area(in the south, swampy area) bugs and spiders are expected.
Meg, I will report this to the exterminator company immediately. Thank you so much for making me aware of this. I will also have the cleaning lady address this also. I am glad you enjoyed your vacation and hope you will return soon.
Great Place at our Favorite Beach
We had been coming to Sunset Beach since 1992 and would rent a couple of homes on the 3rd row with our extended family. We hadn't been to Sunset Beach since 2010. It was great to get back here and spend time relaxing with family.
The accommodations were wonderful and exactly as described in the listing. My family enjoyed their 3 night stay at the condo and hope to return again in the future.
Neil, so glad you enjoyed your visit. Please don’t stay away so long. We would love to have you back for a return visit.
Great area for a quiet vacation!
Everything was exactly as described. The place was clean and neat, and more spacious than we imagined. The beach is about 2 mins away by car and there are many great places to eat. I had hoped tennis courts were onsight, but there is a public park a mile down the road with multiple courts. The owner responded quickly whenever we had questions. We will certainly come back again!
So glad you enjoyed your vacation! We would love to have you visit again.
Spotless, everything thought of
Comfortable and well equipped. Conveniently situated.
Lisa, we are so glad you enjoyed your vacation. Hope you will return 🙂
Very roomy and very well decorated.
We really enjoyed our stay. I am sure we will request to stay again in the future. Felt safe coming and going. The pool area was a little small and we we're a little disappointed that we weren't able to use all the facilities advertised.
Brenda, I am glad you enjoyed the accommodations, but I am unclear what facilities you were unable to use. Use of the Pink Palace facilities is limited by the Sea Trail HOA home owners only. Violating this could cause us to lose our privileges at Sea Trail. A larger pool and exercise facilities are available at the Activity Center.
We do hope you will stay with us again in the future.
Map
Sunset Beach is a unique family beach on the eastern shores of NC. It is unique in that it doesn't face east, called a parallel beach by the locals running east and west with no dramatic drop off or huge waves making it easy for families to enjoy. The beaches are wide, quiet and competely handicap accessible, the fishing pier is a nice break any day or a short walk to visit the Kindred Spirit Box where you can go and write down your thoughts, hopes, secrets and dreams. Sea Trail accommodations give you an added benefit being able to play a round of golf, or two, or three, have lunch at the resort, swim, tennis and sauna privileges.
