HipNautical Oceanfront

RENOVATION COMPLETE!! RIGHT ON THE BEACH! Unobstructed views for miles. Walk out the back door, off the deck then immediately you are on the sand! Stunning ocean view from the cozy indoor sitting area. Very private with no neighbors to the south and blocked view of the north houses yet walking distance to popular hot spot eateries. Large 50-inch TV in family room and TVs in all three bedrooms. Rokus with active Hulu and Netflix on all four! Two queen bedrooms and the third with two Duo bunks. Two baths, one with tub/shower combination, the other full-size walk-in shower with seat and pull-down sprayer. Linens included at no additional cost. Kitchen well equipped. All new cabinets, granite and appliances. New large capacity washer and dryer. Non-Smoking home. Unfortunately, since two incidents a month after renovation, we are NO LONGER a pet vacation rental.

Great stay! Easy-to-find property in a great location- just off the main road. Check in and out process was super easy. Multiple beds but the one we used was very comfortable. Host was very very communicative and very helpful. Property was clean. Could use a little updating but honestly not even close to a big deal. Perfect view of the sunrise and so amazing being right on the beach. Would definitely stay here again!

Location is everything

Right on the beach with unmatched views of the ocean! We loved it here, especially on the back deck. It is a great place to see dolphins (and sting rays!).The recently upgraded appliances and kitchen cabinets were very nice. We really enjoyed it here and hope to return for future vacations.

The home was just as portrayed and Vickie was great about keeping me updated on check-in. Unfortunately, we travelled in during a bad storm and only stayed 1 night. We were unable to enjoy the outdoor areas but as a frequent beach vacationer, I could tell that they would have been amazing had the weather been more amenable. Vickie was very understanding of the situation and was a great host. I would highly recommend a stay at this property.

Awesome ocean views from huge back deck right next to the dunes. Easy beach access from the house and new renovations….brand new kitchen, 2 new bathrooms and 1 new big picture window to watch the ocean from the inside when raining. Screened in side porch a plus also. Have been going here for 4 years now. So nice to see improvements every time! Thank you Don and Vickie for sharing your wonderful beach house. Hope to see it again next year.

Don & Vickie’s home was peaceful, clean, and had everything we needed for a relaxing beach vacation. The walk to the beach was easy, and the dune wasn’t too steep—great for families. We enjoyed nearby attractions like the aquarium and had some amazing meals at local restaurants. The deck is awesome and the view is amazing! The host was friendly and quick to respond if we had questions, which made the experience even better. It was the perfect mix of fun and relaxation. We’d definitely stay here again - especially if we decide to travel with our pups later!
