Pool. Extra fridges. Lots of space. And right on the beach! Sleeps up to 52 in both sides! Connecting door in main living room!

Big is beautiful! Sea Monster is a “monster” as in BIG, but she's certainly not ugly!

This lovely monstrosity is located directly on the gulf. It is perfect for those larger get togethers: plenty of space to be together but plenty of your own space too!

Sea Monster is a duplex with 8 bedrooms and 7.5 baths on each side! It sleeps up to 26, or 52 if you take both sides. Each side has:

2nd Floor (Main) North BR: King with en suite bath
3rd Floor South BR: King with en suite bath
3rd Floor Middle BR: King with en suite bath
3rd Floor North BR: King with ensuite bath (typically provides access to anyone in Living Room/QSS)
4th Floor South BR: King with ensuite bath (shared with bunk room, private access from both rooms)
4th Floor Middle South BR: 2 x Twin Bunks (shared with South BR, private access from both rooms)
4th Floor Middle North BR: Queen, bath in hallway next to room, not specifically shared with another room
4th Floor North BR: 2 Queen + Twin Bunk with en suite bath

All bedrooms have en suite bathrooms EXCEPT the 4th Floor Middle North BR. Note, there are not separate bathrooms if using the Living Room or Lounge QSS so bath use would be with adjacent rooms. Additionally, the bunk room can either use the adjacent (en suite, separate entrance with the south bedroom) OR the common bath on that level.

For both sides, see our Sea Monster East & West listing. One side perfect for your group? Check out our Sea Monster East and Sea Monster West listings for the individual units.

TWO Refrigerators, PER SIDE.
The home has 2 refrigerators (yes, that would be 4 fridges if you choose to stay in both sides: you can never have too much fridge space!). There are balconies on each level.

POOL? You bet!
BIG outdoor pool (shared only between the two sides, and with no one else). 30x16x3-5' rectangular bit of beachfront bliss!

PARKING
There is available onsite parking for at least 6 cars per side (2 under the side, 4 in front of the side). Good stackers can pull off more. Bad stackers? Well, not so much!

WIFI/INTERNET
YES! We have an awesome Eero mesh network to ensure excellent wifi coverage throughout this spacious home. Spotty coverage is always an issue for big places. Sure internet may work next to the router in the living room, but what about the far reaches of the home!? That's why we installed a multi-node mesh network. And what's the internet like? It is generally solid and ran > 300Mb down the last test--sufficient for several simultaneous video conference sessions for remote work and education. Internet is, of course, an amenity and subject to service provider outages (and guests "troubleshooting" it), especially with the havoc the sand and salt wreak on cabling and facilities, no more so than any other home on the beach though, and likely better since its close in and new construction!

SOAPS, TOWELS, COFFEE, ETC ETC
As with most beach homes in the area, the local mgt co provide what they call a "starter supply" of soaps, toilet paper, and paper towels, etc. Enough for the first night to get you going! Please plan to bring or purchase additional supplies, and any cleaning or pantry supplies you may need, or to make a quick run to the store (or have it delivered!). You will want to bring beach towels or beach chairs as well. Because mgt cos will not generally support them, grills are not provided, though they are sometimes inherited from prior guests: your mileage may vary on this, and we usually assess and then go snag a small charcoal kettle when we come down ourselves. Also of note: at many locations, you may find the bunk beds (and certain other beds) are not fully made--instead a bedding pack is provided. This is a common practice for the local management companies, which is both green (if the bedding is not used, it doesn't have to be laundered) AND more sanitary--housekeeping does not have to crawl on the bunks and so on to make the beds. Also also... all our homes have drip coffee makers and most now have Keurigs as well.

No smoking please. No pets.

NEED MORE? I own 4 duplexes, side by side. Big crew? I got you covered. Shoot me a note!

SNOWBIRDS! Up to 2/3rds off for off-season stays of 28 days or longer.
