Pearl of the Sea - Waterfront Both Sides of Home .... BRING YOUR BOAT!

Great location but unfriendly area Location of the house is great with both and back having waterfront views. House in general is very clean. However, the dock at the back of the house has one floatation device broken, sinking one corner of the dock, making it unlevel and somewhat unsafe. We brought our boat and crab trap with us. However, we lost our crab trap because someone cut the rope of the trap and threw the floater on the nearby shoreline. This is the second time in Holden Beach that our crab trap was messed with by someone. It should be noted that we were careful in not placing our trap anywhere near the commercial crab traps.Last but not least, we were charged a very large amount of security deposit at the time of booking the trip, an amount that is equivalent to the total cost of rental for the stay. It took VRBO 14 days after we checked out before we got refunded. The owner told us VRBO was notified that there was no reported damage about 2 days after our checkout. We think not only was the amount of security deposit unnecessarily high, but to hold up customer 's deposit for 2 weeks after checkout was unacceptable. This alone is enough to make it uncomfortable for us to book with VRBO again.

AMAZING STAY My family just got back from a 4 night stay and we will DEFINITELY be back!!! The house was perfect with so many thoughtful touches and lots of things to do for all kid ages. The location could not be more perfect! We fished right off the back dock every day and it was the highlight of the older kids trip. The homeowner is SO kind and responsive as well. 10/10 we will definitely be back

Beautiful views Beautiful views, quiet neighborhood, great home

Great place lots of memories made Loved everything. Just wished it had more than the one mirror in the bathroom. Maybe there could be one on the wall or behind the doors in the bedrooms.

Great stay The communication was great and the house was perfect for our needs. The house was clean and great for our group with 3 kids under the age of 3.

Private Peninsula Property on ICW Amazing property, amazing views. The intercoastal waterway is in the front yard and the channel is in the back with a spacious boat dock and back yard. The beach is only two blocks away! Very clean property, thoughtfully decorated. Well stocked kitchen. Very courteous, responsive, and respectful host. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be returning to the Pearl of the Sea again, very soon. Thank you for sharing this wonderful property with us Sam, we look forward to our next stay!
