Warm and welcoming!
We stayed five nights in cabin #1- family of four and our children are 20 & 15. The cabin was immaculate upon check-in; easily the cleanest rental unit I’ve ever stayed in. The cabin is the perfect size, with an eat-in kitchen, bathroom and two bedrooms. The screened-in porch is perfect for relaxing, drying beach clothes and storing sandy beach items during your stay. The property is so charming! The cabin has a very beachy vibe and the outdoor spaces are meticulously maintained. Each cabin has a small gas fire pit/table for cozy evening gatherings. Common areas include a pool, covered outdoor dining table, gas grills and a larger fire pit. The distance to the beach/pier/shopping area is a quick and easy walk- less than five minutes. It’s the perfect distance to come and go from the action multiple times per day; yet the cabins themselves are quit and peaceful. The hostesses are on-site and very friendly. We were greeted immediately upon arrival and given all the information we might need. We will absolutely be returning to the Sea Shell. It was the perfect beach vacation!
I loved the small cottage decor with the screened in porch! Also enjoyed the pool each day after time at the ocean. I thought the distance to the beach was good for exercise and the friendly feel of the place was great! Definitely recommend this place and hope to visit here again in the future.
Clean older but nice cottage. Janet and Karen were excellent host with excellent communication.
We had a very nice stay with Janet and Karen. Janet welcomed us when we arrived and provided friendly recommendations on good places to eat. The house was cozy and clean with the necessary accommodations to make it a great stay. We also met Oreo their dog. It was a great stay located within minutes of the pier and activities. Thank you.
Nice and private
Perfect short family/friend getaway!!!! Property was clean with all the basic amenities plus a few added bonuses like overhead ceiling fans, fire pit, plenty of outdoor seating and more. It is also the perfect location to the beach, park, shopping, restaurants and more. We had a great stay. I would recommend getting to the beach early (like 9am), it gets extremely crowded rather quickly.
We arrived late afternoon and were immediately greeted by Janet and Karen. The cottage was adorable. Perfect for two adults, a 13 year old, and a 10 year old. The listing is accurate, as are the pictures. Things worth noting: The cottage has outdoor seating and a propane fire pit that we enjoyed at night. There is also a screened in front porch with additional seating and a clothes line for drying. The kitchen has a small table with two chairs, fridge, sink, toaster, microwave, and a hot plate. There is a coffee pot with filters, silverware, cups and dishes, and cooking utensils. The cottage also has a dish drying rack, dish soap, and dish towels. There are two bedrooms. One room has a three drawer dresser and a double bed. The other bedroom has a double bed and a twin bed. All beds have adequate pillows and blankets. Both rooms have tvs on the walls. The bathroom has a stand-up shower with shelf space for soaps and shampoos. Bar soap was provided, along with bath towels and wash cloths. There is a laundry basket for towels that Janet and Karen will replace as needed. The cottage was very clean and ready when we got there. There is on-sight parking available. The pier and the beach are only about a block away- less than a five minute walk. There is also a swimming pool. We did not use it, but it looked nice. Had we stayed longer, we definitely would have used it. We loved our stay and would stay there again, when we return. Thanks, Janet and Karen!
Short walk to everything. Clean and comfortable!
the owners where great. We felt like family. Very relaxing.
Janet and Karen are great people and keep everything in tip top shape. We thoroughly enjoyed chatting with them and the cottage was perfect for our needs! If we get back to OOB, we will definitely stay with them again!
Cute Cottage. Pool clean, lots of chairs.
Just a five minute walk to the center of town. Carnival, pier, beach, and food spots. Space was a little smaller that expected for two adults and three kids but wasn’t a deal breaker.
The house is well kept and nicely decorated. It is a few minutes walking from the beach and busy area. We enjoyed stay there literarily going somewhere else during the day and coming back to the place for a rest before heading to the busy beach area. There are so many places to eat nearby so there is no need to do any grocery shopping. My kids ride their scooters all over the places and they had a great time. The hosts were very friendly and welcomed us when we arrived at the property.
Loved the property very well taken care of, close to everything... will be staying again next year ?
We loved the owners of this place and we were very happy overall but this place needs a lot of work... the best part is they take pride in their work and home. I respect that. Walking distance to everything.
