Shell House - Less than a block to beach access and recently updated!

We LOVE Shell House and can't wait to come back!

Loved the shell house! Definitely want to come back (:

Good location, house was a little dated. We first walked in standing water in floor in kitchen and dining room took towels dried it up all ok after that.I don't think we would stay there again maybe ok for some

The property is a very easy walk to the beach and an easy walk to watch the sunset. We did not go to the roof of the property to see the beach view because the stairs and railing do not seem to be sturdy. The bath with just the shower needs a new shower head. When the water was turned on the shower head fell off and hit one of us on the side of the head leaving a bruise. I did not contact the owner so, he did not have a chance to reply. The owner did reply quickly when I had other questions. This is our second stay here and we enjoy the area. The kitchen is well stocked and has what you need for an easy stay. The air conditioning was adequate. We were comfortable. We hope to return next year. There are beach chairs and umbrellas available, but we took our own. Enjoyable stay and close to the beach!

Great spot, walk to beach. Burden to bring linens and towels but manageable.

Clean, everything worked perfect

This is our second stay at Shell House. We would love to come back.

Great week thank you so much

The house met our needs quite sufficiently.

Beach view was good. The kitchen was fully stocked.the cell fan need to be dusted and the AC filter needed to be changed and the vents needed to be cleaned

The shell house was perfect for our first time staying on the island at Sunset Beach.

Easy to the beach quite place to stay

Clean

Loved the Shell house for our recent beach stay. It has plenty is space for our family of 6. Less than a block from the nearest beach access point. It was clean and decently maintained. The only minor negatives is that the starter on the grill doesn’t work and the cable stations were not functional either. Neither was a big deal as we didn’t watch TV much. Overall, it was a great house on Sunset Beach. We would stay here again!

We had a blast and enjoyed the house very much. This was our 2nd time and we will be back next summer!

We enjoyed our stay- as we always. We are looking forward to 2026

The Shell House was a nice place to stay. We were a short walk to the beach and to the end of the island to watch the sunset. We took my 95-year-old mother, and the town of Sunset was more than happy to provide us a wheelchair that would go on the beach. They dropped it off and picked it up. We had no problems at the cottage. Nice quiet neighbors. Nice place and easy access!

Very clean, convenient and cozy! Close to beach and restaurants. Host was wonderful and responds quickly. Bring your own chairs, towels, linens, and toilet paper. The outside shower is Heavenly!

Awesome trip and great house. Close to the beach and excellent area.

Perfect beach house

Came for a golf weekend. Everything was as advertised. Had a good time with no complaints on the property.

Communication with property owner and check in was accurate and concise. We arrived to a house in absolutely deplorable shape. Counters were covered in spilled drink, food and sand all over floors, garbage overflowing and bathrooms were horrendous with urine all over seats, floors, body hair all over toilets, sinks, and showers. After spending 60 in cleaning supplies and 3 hours later is was somewhat decent to stay at. Blood spots, bodily fluid stains all over the beds, so bad that our group slept in sleeping bags on the beds and had to use camping gear for better sanitary conditions than the bedding we arrived to.Listing claims there is a hot tub, there is none, dryer has no heating element, you take your life in your own hands going up to the roof deck with the amount of rotten wood.Did get a hold of the property owner after multiple attempts, they apologized for lack of cleanliness, but even with a cleaning the furnishings were super rough.Loved Sunset Beach, location was good - renter beware or alternatively you might want to get a penicillin shot after your stay.

Only complaint was there was no hot tub as listed but would definitely book again.

The pictures on the website don’t do the home justice. It’s truly beautiful inside, with a new couch, screened in porch, nice sized kitchen, comfortable beds, 5 minute walk from the beach.

Great location! The house is dated and was smaller then we expected.

Nice place to stay
