About this property

Shell Box III: Dog Friendly, 1 Block from Beach

New in our program, this home has many great reviews from past guests.

A quintessential coastal getaway awaits at this three-bedroom home in Sunset Beach, where you'll be just around the corner from the beach itself, the beautiful Atlantic Ocean, and the town fishing pier.

With the beach only a quarter-mile down the road, this cheerful home is a place to spend your days swimming, boogie boarding, fishing, and collecting seashells on the sand. A number of restaurants, cafes, shops, and conveniences are just across the Intracoastal Waterway less than a mile north.

Stroll home from the beach in the afternoon to be greeted by sunny yellow shutters, a shaded patio beneath the house, and a lovely back deck where you can soak up a bit more sun, play cards, or gather for an alfresco meal in the shade of the umbrella. The adjacent screened porch is a perfect spot for morning coffee, afternoon crossword puzzles, and cocktails at sunset.

Inside, find a centrally air-conditioned living space with lofty ceilings, comfortable furnishings, and the colors of the beach running throughout. This is a natural gathering space whether you're cooking in the well-equipped kitchen, sharing appetizers at the breakfast bar and high-top dining table, or watching after-dinner movies on Netflix, cable, or the DVD player in the living room. Additional features include three colorful bedrooms and free WiFi throughout the house. Sleeps 10 including a pull out sofa in the living area.

Family vacation was perfect!

This was the perfect house for our family vacation. When we arrived we noticed a couple of issues, and when I messaged the management company, they responded quickly and had someone out the same day to take care of them. Definitely would rent this house again!

Perfect Location with Beautiful Views

Our adult family of eight truly loved our stay here. The views were fantastic and the location to the beach can’t be beat. You can also walk to the park, coffee, shops, and restaurants. When we had a minor issue with a leak from the outside shower, even though it was not an emergency, a maintenance member arrived 15 minutes after we contacted the company. It was a wonderful and relaxing vacation home.

Great stay for a great value

We had a great stay at S.H.E. Shell! The best part was how close we were to the beach. We even let our young kids play on the beach while we sat on the porch. You'll want to make sure you bring your own beach toys and inside activities for a rainy day, but other than that the house had everything we needed. Holden Beach is great and this house is in a prime location.

Great beach

The location of this house is great and the ability to access the beach directly on the walkway off the back patio is awesome. However the house and furniture is extremely dated. The couches and beds were very uncomfortable.

Property location was great. Wonderful views of the ocean. Plenty of room inside and out. The property could use a little TLC as stated in previous reviews. Not a deal breaker for us though. Would certainly stay here again.

Fun Place

Convenient to the bridge, on the ocean, nice cottage. Trimming back the bushes on the ocean side would be great. Our senior member doesn’t get any further than the porch so lower bushes = better view for her. Otherwise a nice place to stay, we’ll be back.
Response from VrboOwner on 21 Jun, 2023
Hi, Amos! Some of the foliage on the dunes is protected and can't be cut down, but we have asked our landscaper to trim down the bushes we are allowed to. Thank you!

Relaxing Fall Days at the Beach

Six of us - Seniors to teen boys (Fall brake from school) Breeze on the beach with pleasant water. Sunsets were beautiful and relaxing. Enjoyed cooking and eating sea food as a family. Nice having the linen provided with ample large towels. Everything went smoothly - Thanks

Best beach stay Ever!

The location is excellent! We were only steps from the beach. The deck is perfect for sipping an early morning cup of coffee while watching the waves roll in. The open floor plan keeps everyone engaged and together. I love that everything we needed (pots, pans, utensils, blankets, towels, etc) was included. Internet was great. Netflix was great. We had a wonderful time and didn’t want to leave. Best Thanksgiving Holiday ever!
