Quaint Getaway

We had the best time! Everything you need is provided and the grounds had so much to offer- indoor pool and hot tub plus two beachside pools. Easy access to the beach (view of the ocean from the balcony) and the buildings have recently been updated on the exterior and look very nice.

Nice place for my husband and I to have a little getaway. Very close to the indoor pool and hot tub. Enough parking, which is a plus.

We had a great stay! Beautiful condo, easy beach access, and we loved the amenities!

We comfortably slept 5 people for 5 nights. Beach view and easy beach access was perfect! The hot tub was wonderful, especially during the colder days. The host was super helpful, kind, and quick to respond.

Great!

We had a wonderful time staying at the Shell Shack! We were able to entertain our boys most of the time at the beach, indoor pool, out door pool, playing basketball, tennis, and pickleball. The apartment was very comfortable and beautifully furnished. I was extremely impressed that when the leg on the box spring bed broke the hosts immediately went out and bought a new box spring frame and installed it while I took the kids swimming. I highly recommend staying at The Shell Shack!

Great stay

We booked for a few days at Christmas instead of spending it in a hotel. We’re relocating to the area and plan on returning here again soon. Proposed to my gf and she said yes in the shell shack!!!

Lovely place! Awesome host

We stay here for a week because of a business conference & my family loved it. The amenities are amazing, the host was able to accommodate an early check in, she’s super responsive. The beach is about 100 yards out. The balcony has an awesome view of the beach. The unit is super cozy. Overall we had an amazing time & are hoping to come again soon since we made some really great friends here!

Love it!

We had a fantastic stay for our getaway! The interior design and layout of the place were impressive, creating a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere. The location was beautiful and peaceful away from other busy hotels. We needed something quiet and less busy. A walk to the beach and on the beach was awesome. Everything was in perfect working condition, and we encountered no issues during our visit. The owner and staff were incredibly friendly, making us feel right at home. We would love to return in the future!

Relaxing Stay, Great Location

My husband and I had an amazing time staying here. The condo was so cute and perfect! There was so much to do at the condo that we really didn’t have to leave to go find stuff to do. The 3 pools were so nice because it helped space everyone out and helped it not get so crowded. The beaches were not crowded at all! We had so much room to ourselves which is very important to us. However, the best part about the trip was the hospitality and kindness shown to us by the host. She is so sweet and thoughtful! We really appreciated it.

Such a perfect and peaceful place!

I would absolutely stay here again! This place was the perfect size for me and my friends. It was a great price for the unit, and the bed, bunk beds, and sofa sleeper are all super comfortable. Pictures look exactly like the unit. Chastity was overly accommodating and was prompt with any questions, concerns, or assistance needed. She’s the best host you could ask for! The unit is only a few steps away from the private and peaceful beach. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Thank you for everything Chastity!
