Nice place

Water pressure was a bit low for the shower. There was no sponge in the kitchen that I could find. I have never stayed in a VRBO so I am not sure what is supposed to be there and was is not! I did not turn the ceiling fan on in the bedroom because the light would have stayed on. I could not reach the pull string to turn the light off. My stay was excellent.

Enjoying coffee while the sun rises on the ocean is what we looked for to start our day. This property served as the perfect home base for our daily and nightly island adventures. Great location and clean!

So perfect!

The Sea Glass Cottage is the perfect place for a little beach getaway. It’s steps away from the beach, a couple miles from downtown, and has everything you need for a short trip. Just make sure you bring your own beach chairs!

Christmas Get-Away

We really enjoyed our empty-nesters Christmas get-away. The owners were very responsive and helpful whenever I emailed them. They even contacted us to let us know we could check out whenever we wanted since we were checking out Christmas Day and housekeeping wouldn't be there until the next day.

fall getaway

The property was just as presented online. It was very cozy and just right for the 2 of us. Although the weather was ugly when we were there, the location was great. The beach was just over the dunes. We had all intensions to ride bikes but maybe next time. Salt Life restaurant and The Sandbar were within walking distance. We would certainly recommended staying here.

I've been coming to the island for years, but only recently found this north-end gem. So cute and neat with everything you need, and just a few steps from the beach. I will be back again!

Perfect Location

If you are looking for a convenient beach location, this is the place! Steps away from the sandy, shell covered beach. This beach is great for walking, watching surfers and of course soaking up the sun. Even though it is close to the road, not many cars go down the road and it is very quiet. The property was just as described and looks just like the pictures. Everything has been remodeled and the decorations and final touches are super cute and beachy. The bed was really comfortable not too soft or hard. Great getaway and would stay here again!!

Ocean right there!

Absolutely a beautiful unit! Felt like we were possibly the first ones staying since it was remodeled!! Clean, clean! Everything we needed was there- toaster, micro, oven, plates etc. Loved the shelving unit in the bedroom! Don't like putting clothes in dressers. TV was not complicated to watch (we are not up to date on all the streaming stuff!). Can't say enough about the closeness to the ocean! Just a short walk over a road and up some stairs and you're there! Very walkable to restaurants/bars/stores and drivable- calm area. Loved seeing all the different dogs on the beach and walking past our unit! If we come this way in the future would have no problem renting from them again. Only down side was we were instructed to not open windows - I do like fresh air and to be able to hear the ocean.
