This vacation home has everything! Steps from the ocean, pool and hot tub. The house was spotless, the master bedroom was incredible, huge with a newly updated en suite bathroom that has incredible views of the beach. The house has a big open floor plan, so our extended family of 14 never felt crowded. Jenny the host was available for any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again.
Very clean and comfortable home. We had plenty of space to spread out in the house. Amazing ocean views. Great pool. Lots of parking and easy walk to restaurants and local coffee shop.
Very clean, updated, well equipped kitchen. Loved the kids bedroom for our 5 gkids. Had full bath with 2 bunk beds. Full size beds (2 kids ea) on ground and 2 twin beds above. We rented for a full week so we had the daily tent service which we all loved. It could shade 5-6 people at a time.
The house was great! The home was just remodeled and had everything our family needed. The property was very clean. The owner even checked in on us. The property was beach front with a beautiful view. The pool and hot tub was an added bonus. This was our first time staying at Holden Beach and this place has won our hearts. Will be coming back again. Very nice to not have to fight for a parking spot, waiting for an elevator or finding a spot on the beach. They had our tent put up on the beach every morning by 6 and they took it down after 6 in the evening. If you have little ones, this is the beach for you. All beach chairs, beach toys, and pool tools were provided.
What a beautiful home. Jenny was super responsive with any questions or things we were requesting her help with. The renovations done were magnificent. Having a tent setup on the beach and then all of the beach chairs & toys available made traveling so much simpler. Great access to the ocean & a wonderful pool/hot tub were the perfect icing on the cake. Highly recommended.
We really enjoyed our stay at this house. It was in a fantastic location and close to the beach. We loved having the option of the pool or beach. The house was really well appointed. I loved the decor and the small little touches like having extra throw blankets and tall chairs so you can see over the banister when sitting on the porch. We opted to heat the pool and it malfunctioned a couple of times, but the owner was super responsive and sent people out quickly to get it fixed. The only thing the house didnât have was cookie sheets and we bought some and left them there for the next guest. I wondered if the chairs for the beach would be well worn, but they seemed brand new. The tent set up each day was a nice touch. Both of the king beds were a little firm, but still passable. I do like a really cushy bed, so that could be a me problem. The folks sleeping in other beds said they were comfortable. I would still book again.
We had an amazing time, the house was perfect and the views were amazing! The property owner was amazing, very quick responses, and accommodating to us! We will definitely be going back and visiting. My family had a great time in the pool, hot tub and home. I could not have ask for a better experience!!!
Jenny was very prompt on answering questions before trip. View from second level was awesome. We loved the pool as it had sitting benches built in and were very comfortable. It was our first time renting a house we would do it again.
The house had a great location and all the amenities we hoped for! It was just the right space and set up for our group. While it was "clean" as in the housekeeping was doing a great job, there was just general maintenance things that were rough around the edges. I'm sure to some extent that had to do with us coming at the end of the summer travel season. Interior and especially exterior needed some paint and rust proofing. (To the extent that kids had to be warned about avoiding contact with the rust.) The mattresses weren't great and pillows were flat. The shower curtains had those questionable dark spots at the bottoms and shower was showing it's wear and tear. We couldn't get the garage doors to open (but we also didn't ask for help so that's on us) and we couldn't locate any light inside the garage, so it was just dark and wet in there. Things like that. In all, we had a very nice stay and enjoyed it, but it put a damper on the initial excitement and there was definitely some discussion about it feeling like for the price we weren't expecting to feel like things "needed TLC".
Jenny was amazing with communication. The house was exactly like in the pictures. The location is fabulous. You walk right out to the beach on private walkway. The pool was very clean as was the house. The house had everything you could wish for. Made for great family memories!
House was very nice and clean. Kitchen equipped well for cooking. Fully stocked keurig was certainly appreciated. Refrigerator could be a little bigger. Loved the complimentary beach tent service and the chairs and toys available at the house. Outdoor area and the pool are wonderful. Grandkids had so much fun in the pool and hot tub.
The house was very nice and had everything we needed. The location and beach were great. What made this house outstanding was the pool. The hot tub was sandy and cloudy when we got there. The came back and cleaned it but the water never did look inviting. Overall, the whole family thought it was a great time.
We highly recommend staying at this property for a relaxing and convenient beach vacation! It is clean, well maintained, stocked with everything we needed for comfortable beach days (nice chairs to take to the ocean). It is steps away from the ocean, the pool was beautiful and had 8 full length reclining sunning chairs, the house was perfect for our family of 7 (husband and myself, 2 college age children, and our daughter and so. In law and 6mo old grandchild). We especially enjoyed having a tent service each day; the gentleman who set it up daily was consistent and had it set-up before 8 each morning! Also, the hostess was easy and lovely to communicate with!
The host is extremely responsive, friendly and hospitable. The house was clean and in a fantastic location being right on the beach with a private walk out. We couldnât have stayed in a better home. We will definitely be staying again!!
This house was great and fully equipped with everything needed. The only thing disappointing was the temperature of the pool. We paid the extra $250 for it to be heated and it was not swimmable the entire time. I would recommend removing this option during certain months so that people arenât wasting money.
Best vacation due to location and weather. House was better than the description. Clean roomy and space for everyone. Large family summer vacation I highly recommend this home. Hope to return next year
The house was very nice, loved the pool size, the location of the house, proximity to the beach and the tent concierge service was a plus. A suggestion would be to have a lot more silverware for a house that accommodates 10 of us. Fully equipped kitchen was advertised and that was lacking. The lighting in the kitchen was on and off and my son in law changed the filter for the a/c, it was really dirty. Some knobs should be checked for maintenance on bedroom furniture. It would be helpful to advertise the master suite requiring to go up a flight of stairs, most are on the main level. The coffee supplied for the Keurig was a nice feature and Jennifer was great to work with. I would suggest spending the $106 per year for recycling, we brought much of ours home.
We live in a suburb of Charlotte, NC with our son Nathan. Mark is a software engineer at Unisys Corporation and Jenny is a Coach to Mortgage Professionals. We have been visiting Holden Beach for several years with friends and have fallen in love with this quaint little island. We have always wanted a beach house of our own and in 2015, that dream became a reality when we purchased Keys in the Conch Shell. We spent 5 months renovating and redecorating the home, giving it our personal touch. 2 years later, we purchased Sunshine in My Soul, our 2nd property in Holden Beach. We love the slow pace of Holden Beach and enjoy spending our time entertaining friends on the deck overlooking the ocean or taking a nap in the hammocks while enjoying the ocean breeze. We'd love to share our home away from home with you. We hope you love it as much as we do!
We knew we wanted a home that was large enough to have several families join us and we wanted to be oceanfront, so when we found Keys in the Conch Shell, we fell in love. The home is laid out really well for a large crowd and either multi-family or multi-generational vacations. Our keyless touch pad locks means you can lock your items up but not have to worry about taking a key with you!
When you first enter Keys in the Conch Shell you will be blown away by the expansive views of the ocean! The beach is just steps away from the large deck which boasts an 8 ft custom picnic table and 6 custom high Adirondack chairs. The beach is close enough to watch your kids play from the deck. No more packing up your things for a day at the beach! Just take your chair to the sand; the house and anything you need are just steps away.
