Panoramic Ocean Views - Close to BHI Club and Shops - Two New Golf Carts

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great time! Thank so much for the fun time. The golf carts were a blast and we bought the temporary membership at the BHI club next door which gave us access to pools and restaurants. The local market has everything we needed. We visited a different beach spot every day.What a relaxing vacation."

Welcome to the Mermaid villa - Your perfect retreat!

10/10 Excellent

"My mom and I booked the Mermaid Villa for a last minute trip to Bald Head Island and absolutely LOVED it! It's a short distance from the marina, and the tram got us to and from the ferry quickly. The view of the ocean from our villa was lovely! We enjoyed drinking our coffee in the mornings with an ocean view. The beds were comfortable (huge plus while traveling), and the villa was beautifully and thoughtfully decorated! We mostly stayed downstairs, but the upstairs loft was pretty cool, too! We enjoyed having a 6 seater golf cart. It made carrying groceries from the market and beach chairs super easy. We've stayed at multiple places on BHI, and would happily rent the Mermaid Villa again! The sky was so clear and full of stars the first night we could actually see the Milky Way with our naked eye. The beauty of this island is insane. It is truly a magical place! Some highlights from this trip include: seeing the birds at the Wildlife Overlook, having the beach virtually to ourselves at access 13 & 17, watching the sun set over the ocean (pretty cool to see on the East coast!) with a pizza from the Wisp, having delicious Mexican food at Cozumel and driving the golf cart all around the island. Oh, and seeing the custom engraved brick we had previously purchased at Old Baldy Lighthouse. That was pretty fun! Thank you Holly for providing the best space for two ladies to relax. We can't wait to visit again!"

Great family 5 bedroom Beach home

Oceanfront Home with Expansive Views

10/10 Excellent

"House was great, and very comfortable for our crowd. House was equipped with all that we needed for an easy stay—beyond the well stocked kitchen there were plenty of beach and bath towels, beach chairs, beach toys etc. Gary was a responsive communicator, easy to work with to answer questions and resolve whatever was needed ahead of our arrival and while staying at the house. Great location in the middle of South Beach, close to the marketplace and shops. We were there with our three children and their three young families. Our two five years old and two three years old grandchildren LOVED the bunk room, equipped with games and books."

Welcome to Shell Cottage on Bald Head Island!

10/10 Excellent

"Dianne was prompt in answering our questions and addressing any concerns. The layout of the house was great with the family space being the central open area. The rooms were cozy and had all of the things that we needed for our stay. We enjoyed our visit and would stay again. Only thing I would note for those that it would matter, is that the listed grill is not full size but rather a small portable charcoal grill."
