Jellyfish Cottage: Dog-Friendly Boho Elegance with Ocean Views

3 Bedrooms | 2 Full Bathrooms
1 King | 2 Doubles | 2 Twins | 1 Twin Sleeper Sofa

Experience the ultimate in relaxation as you allow yourself to drift with the proverbial tides and sway with the swells of the sea during a stay at Jellyfish Cottage. Boasting a unique two-wing floor plan with ocean views and decorated in shades of sand and sea grass, bohemian textures and understated nautical elements throughout the home combine with a sense of whimsy and invite you to slow down, linger and explore.

Enter from the partially covered deck into the bright and welcoming living room. A pair of chairs and a plush sofa beckon with their abundance of throw pillows and woven blankets. Gather together to watch a favorite movie on the wall-mounted smart TV, or watch the sun glisten on the waves instead. When it's time to retire for the night, the sofa converts to a twin bed if extra sleeping space is needed.

The sturdy oval dining table seats six guests, with space for an additional four available at the nearby breakfast bar. The gleaming white kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook meals together during your stay, and the under-cabinet lighting along with plenty of counterspace for preparation and storage help you feel right at home. Gaze out the window and watch pelicans and gulls swoop into the sea or watch for dolphins playing as you rinse local produce in the sink. Pendulum lights in the kitchen reminiscent of a jellyfish's bell and a seashell chandelier over the dining table provide the perfect finishing touches to this space.

You'll also find the master suite in the south wing, furnished with a king bed and large wall-mounted smart TV. The classic iron bedstand, cozy throw blankets and fluffy bed linens entice you to grab a book from the nearby dresser and settle in. The en suite bathroom features his and hers sinks and a standard tub/shower combo with a sliding glass door.

Between the south and north wings of the home you'll discover a delightful partially covered porch, certain to become the center of your vacation memories. Enjoy a meal al fresco here as you're cooled by the ocean breeze at the outdoor dining table seating six. There's plenty of space for kids or dogs to romp and burn off energy as the family gets ready to hit the beach - this home accepts up to two dogs per stay. The laundry closet is located here as well, filled with a stackable washer and dryer and conveniently available whenever you need it without disturbing other group members.

In the north wing of the house, you'll find a short hallway connecting two bedrooms and a full bathroom with a standard tub/shower combo with a sliding glass door. Both bedrooms provide wall-mounted smart TVs for personal entertainment. The first room is furnished with two double beds and the second bedroom offers two twin beds. Coordinating bedding and furniture throughout the space adds to the resort-like feel, and the separation of the wings allows you to easily settle little ones to bed while the adults continue to enjoy their evening.

Downstairs, the spacious enclosed outdoor shower with hot and cold water is a lifesaver when it comes time to rinse sand off of babies and fur-babies after a long day at the beach. Speaking of the beach, a walk of less than 400 feet takes you from your doorstep to the sand via the public beach access point. Thanks to the well-established vegetation on the dunes to your west and a narrowing of the island that means fewer houses, you'll set up on one of the most private stretches of Oak Island's West Beach.
