Beautiful, clean, so close the beach access, beach was quiet and beautiful. We had babies with us ranging from 1-4 years old and they had the best time. We brought baby gates for the steps. We never had an issue with anything whatsoever. The rental place was so nice and accommodating. I can’t say enough about it. This is the nicest beach house we’ve ever rented and it was such a wonderful vacation!! ##### Michaela R. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Megan K. 21 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic Location Our family had a wonderful time at Shell N Shine. The location is fantastic - diagonally across the street from the public beach access. This was essential for traveling to the beach with babies. The beds were comfortable, plenty of space, and very clean. The house was well stocked with board games and kitchen essentials. Great parking for 4 cars, that even left room for small sitting area at the front of the driveway. The beach supply closet had all you'd need to head to the sand including a wagon. The older kids enjoyed the boogie boards. Great N. end location - we rented golf carts and the cars barely left the driveway. Overall a great stay and a great house. ##### Megan K. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Leslie W. 17 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great location, close to beach & short walk to boardwalk. Grocery stores are close too. Bedrooms are fine with tv in every room. Sectional sofa was old & looked like arms were chewed, covered the sofa with sheets & blankets. ##### Leslie W.
