Ocean Front Large Family Condo This is 2nd Floor Only of the iconic Shiphouse
Spectacular Views from this Second Floor Oceanfront Condominium. Features Swimming Pool and Rooftop Deck!
Shiphouse 2 is the second floor at the landmark Shiphouse. Designed to resemble the hull of a ship, Shiphouse is an exquisite oceanfront residence on St. Simons Island.
Hodnett Cooper Vacation Rentals and Hodnett Cooper Premier are pleased to present Shiphouse #2 as part of our luxury portfolio of properties. Hodnett Cooper Premier properties are among the finest vacation rental residences on St. Simons Island. Hodnett Cooper Premier guests receive personalized assistance from our Premier Concierge including pre-arrival trip planning, activity reservations and more.
On the ground level, an oceanfront pool provides a refreshing spot to read, relax or refresh after a day in the sand. While this magnificent home is oceanfront, beach access is tide contingent. At high tide, which occurs twice daily, the beach is mostly inaccessible. There is not direct beach access from the home, rather it is just one house down in either direction. You won't miss the ocean when you have spacious balconies, a rooftop deck, mesmerizing waves, ocean breezes and your own seaside pool.
From the outdoor staircase or shared elevator, guests enter the residence and are greeted with stunning ocean views to the east and four spacious bedrooms to the west. The living area features a space for dining, den and an open kitchen with gourmet appliances and island seating. The living area has 180 degree views and a wraparound balcony for enjoying the view and ocean breeze.
Each of the four bedrooms has an en suite bath. The master bedroom is spacious with a King bed and the en suite has a garden soaking tub. The “children’s bedroom” features two sets of bunk beds.
This unit features hardwood floors throughout, detailed architectural finishes and beautiful furnishings.
Atop the Shiphouse is a rooftop deck that spans the entire footprint of the house. The deck is a wonderful gathering spot that features tables and chairs for al fresco dining, a grilling area with running water, and a sitting area to take in the Atlantic Ocean views. Both the rooftop deck and pool are shared with guests renting the residence on the floors above and below the second floor residence.
During the summer months, The Shiphouse condos requires all three floors to be rented for seven-night minimum stay with a Saturday-to-Saturday schedule only.
Bedding Includes: 2 Kings, 1 Queens, 2 sets of bunk beds (twin over double).

Family vacation
Great location and home right on the beach! Only thing I would add is window coverings in the living area. The sun is bright and gets it warm in there causing the ac to work over time!

Beautiful view
It is very spacious in the main area for gathering with a gorgeous view! The bunk bed room is very small and it's bathroom is extremely small for 4 people. They need some shelving in there for cosmetics etc.
Beds were comfortable and rooms clean. I'll list a few items that I feel would be inexpensive upgrades: no potholders anywhere, only one lid for a small pot - otherwise no lids at all for cooking, only 6 coffee cups. We had 8 adults and 2 children and therefore could not drink coffee at the same time. That was a bummer. But overall, a beautiful place and we enjoyed it.

ShipHouse
The Ship House was great! Everything was clean and we had plenty of room. The icemaker in the bar area was a great extra! The rooms were large and each one had its own bathroom which was great.
The only problem we had was with the beach chair rentals we were only able to get chairs for 2 of the days we were there and the rental company was a pain. For the price we paid for the unit it would have been nice for the beach chairs to be included.

New Years Eve Nightmare!
This is the worst value property we have ever stayed at using VRBO. Hodnett Cooper should be ashamed of themselves for charging such an exorbitant price for a less than average property. The furniture was early attic vintage, no water pressure in the bathrooms, kitchen was a joke! The place was dirty and overrun with cockroaches! The ice-maker in the bar area had silverfish swarming in it! Such a huge let down. Pictures of location didn't even match reality! What a great job of puffing!
