Loved the Shell house for our recent beach stay. It has plenty is space for our family of 6. Less than a block from the nearest beach access point. It was clean and decently maintained. The only minor negatives is that the starter on the grill doesn’t work and the cable stations were not functional either. Neither was a big deal as we didn’t watch TV much. Overall, it was a great house on Sunset Beach. We would stay here again! ##### Caren M.

The kitchen was well equipped and everything was very clean upon our arrival. Just a short little walk to the beach - house is located in a great spot on the beach. We all enjoyed watching nightly sunsets from the roof and sitting on the front porch in the mornings drinking coffee. Wonderful week at a great property! ##### Laura H. Stayed 7 nights in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### M P., Durham 10 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Location, Quaint & Comfy Home! This house has the classic older "Sunset Beach layout" (my family has been vacationing here for decades), with a central living room & dining/kitchen space and then two bedrooms off to each side with a bathroom in between. Nothing fancy at all but comfortable and cute! The location is amazing, just a quick walk to the beach -- and the porch is definitely a highlight of the property. Cleaning could've been a bit better as we found hairs throughout both bathrooms in the showers and sinks, but this wasn't a huge deal -- we just wiped the areas down. Overall great value, would stay again. ##### M P. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Mitch L. 1 Apr 2025 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### “Updated Propery” needs updating Communication with property owner and check in was accurate and concise. We arrived to a house in absolutely deplorable shape. Counters were covered in spilled drink, food and sand all over floors, garbage overflowing and bathrooms were horrendous with urine all over seats, floors, body hair all over toilets, sinks, and showers. After spending 60 in cleaning supplies and 3 hours later is was somewhat decent to stay at. Blood spots, bodily fluid stains all over the beds, so bad that our group slept in sleeping bags on the beds and had to use camping gear for better sanitary conditions than the bedding we arrived to.Listing claims there is a hot tub, there is none, dryer has no heating element, you take your life in your own hands going up to the roof deck with the amount of rotten wood.Did get a hold of the property owner after multiple attempts, they apologized for lack of cleanliness, but even with a cleaning the furnishings were super rough.Loved Sunset Beach, location was good - renter beware or alternatively you might want to get a penicillin shot after your stay. ##### Mitch L.
