The Princess and the Sea is an absolutely spectacular beach house! Our entire group genuinely loved every second of our week long stay! We thoroughly enjoyed and utilized all 3 amazing beachfront decks, all 6 spacious bedrooms, the extra long dining table, the separate game table, the ground floor swinging chairs, the well stocked kitchen & laundry room, and the super comfortable living space! Standouts for this house were the hammock, the music system, the bunk room for all ages, extra frig space and the 2 ridiculously comfy recliners that we wanted to bring home with us! The house is perfectly located far enough away from the beach to enjoy every bit of the beauty without hearing the occasional beach traffic. This beautiful home at the beach truly helped make our stay extra enjoyable! A huge thank you to our host Melinda for all of her help and going the extra mile to make sure we had everything we needed on our amazing vacation!

The Princess and the Sea Beach House truly deserves a 5-star rating! Every bedroom had its own private bath and beautiful balcony with breathtaking views. Parking was never an issue—we comfortably parked 8 vehicles with room to spare.There’s an awesome game room that kept both kids and adults entertained. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream and fully stocked with everything you could imagine—Melinda left nothing out, from toasters and mixers to gorgeous serving dishes. There were plenty of kitchen and bathroom towels, dual washers and dryers, and even an extra refrigerator for additional storage.Outside amenities were just as impressive, with a great smoker and fire pit—the list honestly goes on and on. Melinda also checked in several times to make sure everything was going smoothly and reminded us to reach out if we needed anything, which made our stay even better.If you’re looking for the perfect place for a beach getaway, this is absolutely the place to stay!

Perfect Weekend Getaway

I host an annual mother-daughter trip each year and this house fit the bill in all areas. Spacious rooms, great location, wonderful views and each bedroom with its own bathroom was a HUGE plus. That is what sold me on this home. It was beautiful, had all of the necessities that we needed and was just perfect for us! We will return again.

Best Family Vacation Ever

The house was amazing! Felt like home from the moment we stepped in. The layout is perfect for family get togethers including cooking dinners together to playing games. We had a group of 12 including 3 children and we all fit comfortably and each family had their own private space. The views from the deck are breathtaking and the hosts were very responsive and checked on us a few times to make sure everything was going well! Would definitely recommend this property for your next vacation stay!
