Summer 2026 is ALMOST GONE and 2027 is filling up REAL FAST! Still looking for 2026 Contact us ASAP.

Don't forget, peak season is in swing and during peak season, we book Saturday to Saturday. So, if you're looking and don't see any availability, check to see if your stay duration falls under those parameters as that usually is the problem :) But, as always, feel free to reach out as we are always happy to help!

8BR 7.5BA Beachfront duplex side. Pool. Extra fridges. Lots of space. And right on the beach! Sleeps 26, or up to 52 in both sides!

Big is beautiful! Sea Monster is a “monster” as in BIG, but she's certainly not ugly! And the location! Can't be beat. Close to everything, especially the beach! Right out your back door, with the only thing between you and the water being sand... and well, more water... because your own pool, private to the duplex is right there too! Plus... this home is right across from Waves Grocery, ice cream, seafood and a great bar and grill! Location. Location. Location.

This listing is for the East side unit, Sea Monster, East! You can also rent the other side, or both together as a 2x8 bedroom place. Like having a 16 bedroom but with two of almost everything: kitchens, living rooms, more! Well, FOUR of some things since each side has TWO refrigerators! When renting both sides, guests may unlock the connecting door on the main level for easy access between the two sides without going up and down the stairs from the main entries.

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 the following:

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.

TWO REFRIGERATORS
Yes, two per side. Because... you need a lot of space for shrimp and beverages!

POOL You bet!
BIG outdoor pool (shared only between the two sides). 30x16x3-5' rectangular bit of beachfront bliss!

PARKING
There is available onsite parking for at least 6 cars per side. More if you park under then home and stack carefully. Just share nice with the neighbors!

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 > 100Mb 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.

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

    Great family reunion type property. You have privacy anytime you want or mingle areas as desired. Great pool and nice beach access. Lots of balcony space on all three living levels! We booked East and West again for next year before departing!

    Great property for our large group. The kids (big and small) loved the pool. Enough bedrooms and common areas for everyone to feel comfortable. Location and beach can’t be beat.

    The star of this property is the great on beach location, the nice pool and all the space. Units that could fit our group of 24 is limited and this house had plenty of room. 2 frig and 2 dishwasher was clutch for our big group. However, for the price point the unit is a bit beat up and tired. Lots of scuffs, paint scraped off on all cabinets, door latches loose or broke, jacuzzi tub out of order, kitchen dishes was not well stocked. It appears alot of things have walked off with past renters and not replaced which was a bummer for our group that cooked all meals in house. We did have a leak from an upstairs tub into the kitchen ceiling as the area was already patched this didnt appear a new issue, however the property manager was very responsive with a plumber out later that day. Overall good property I would stay at again but at the luxury price it needs a refresh and some serious updating.

    My wife & I, our six kids, their spouses and grandkids enjoyed a wonderful week at sea monster. This is a great property that is very spacious, well-maintained and well equipped. We felt the price was reasonable for what we received. We have absolutely no complaints and have reserved it for the same time next year.

    Sea Monster East exceeded our expectations. The house was more spacious than we expected. The bedrooms were large and comfortable. Having two dishwashers and refrigerators really helped with us having 20 people there. The pool was clean and access to the beach was easy with young children.
