☕ Ocean one way. Lake the other · Steps to beach · Saltwater pool · Newly furnished 3BR · Carolina Boardwalk steps away
The Space:
Tea & Tide is warm, generous, and immediately feels like somewhere you want to settle in. The open living and dining area flows easily from the comfortable sitting area — new sofa, smart TV, ceiling fan, hardwood floors throughout — into a dining space that seats eight at the table, with a granite breakfast bar adding three more casual spots for morning coffee and evening wine. The kitchen is well-equipped and genuinely functional for a group: full appliances, glass-front cabinets, and those cheerful blue pendant lights that somehow feel exactly right at the beach.
The front porch sets the tone from the moment you arrive: Adirondack chairs, a table for four, string lights overhead, and the ocean breeze doing its thing. It's the spot for morning tea — naturally — and equally good for evening cocktails.

The building's saltwater pool is steps away. The beach is across the street. The boardwalk is five minutes on foot.
These guidelines are here to help you and your group settle in comfortably, enjoy every amenity, and leave the space just as wonderful as you found it for the next guests. Please take a moment to read through and share with your group.
