This is our third time staying here. We love the house, especially with the recent updates to the bathrooms, the close proximity to the beach, and the private pool, which was also redone. Mary is the best host that we have ever dealt with and she is extremely accommodating. We hope to stay here again in the future.

Wonderful house!

Highly recommend this house! Great location with an easy walk to the beach or into Seaside! The manager was very responsive from start to finish! The house itself was very clean and stocked with anything you could need on a beach vacation! The pool was perfect after a day at the beach or at night! We rented a golf cart which was also great to have and plenty of parking at the house!

Great, convenient location

This place worked perfectly for our family of 4. Convenient walk to the beach, and an easy walk to Seaside without having to pay Seaside prices. Loved having the pool in the back yard when we returned from the beach. We would definitely stay here again.

Check in was the easiest one I’ve ever had. The house was awesome just as the host was! She bless her heart answered all of my question like within two minutes of me asking. We didn’t use the bikes or the pool but the pool looked great! She guided me to Shelly’s for golf cart rental and gave me some names of some awesome restaurants close by. I’ll definitely be back!!

Wonderful Stay!

We had a great stay at Swept by the Tide! The property is in a fantastic location with a short walk to the beach and neighboring Seaside. The little ones loved having the pool to jump in before and after the beach. The property is well equipped and has lots of beach chairs, beach toys, and two fantastic beach carts that double as chairs that are brand new! The wrap around porch was perfect for morning play time and board games. We cannot wait to come back!

Love the house!

Everything was great about our stay, but I do need to say that the bikes are pretty unusable for a variety of reasons: chain consistently falls off, a missing pedal, the tires won't inflate, etc. We ended up renting some, so it wasn't too big of a deal.

Family Visit

We have been coming to Sea Grove Beach for 30 years visiting family who has the luck of living there. My parents stayed in this house for years and this year we were lucky to be able to stay in it! Love the house, pool and location. We brought bikes but there are bikes available with the house. We brought our beach equipment but they have that available also! Also enjoyed that shower in the master bathroom! Can’t wait to come back and stay again!

Wonderful getaway!

My family had a wonderful stay at this property. It was close to the beach, grocery store and restaurants. All of the amenities were there from bicycles, chairs, umbrellas etc. The house was well stocked with all the needed pots and pans, platters, knives, coffee pot, Keurig etc. I didn't know we had to bring extra toilet paper so don't forget that! Our stay was very comfortable and Mary quickly answered us with any questions we had. We would defiinitely stay there again.

Great Vacation Home

Awesome location , lots of extra things throughout the house. I definitely recommend checking in to actually see what you need from Publix that is located less than a mile away. The backyard is beautiful my granddaughter loved the pool. The grill is awesome . I definitely plan on going back to stay at this home.

Terrible

Quite frankly the house was ok. A little dated. The pool was filthy, the kitchen counter tops grout lines (dated) was filthy. The bikes did not work and tires constantly flat. She the owner is trying to bully us in the end - saying we had 8-10 guest. Says she has cameras - I said we had 6 total, show me your camera footage. She said we broke into a personal closet - not true. The linen closet was the primary bedroom closet and in disarray. She said to empty all trash - we did - she said to empty refrigerator, we did and she said to load dishwasher and turn it on - yet she complained that it was to loaded ??? We have been coming to Seaside for 25 years and will be back next year - just not with her !

Great location and amenities

The property is well located although not in Seaside proper - we had some in our group who were so we were not able to have beach chairs together - not a huge deal but just something to know if you have people you are trying to sit by. The house itself was very clean and had pretty much everything we needed in the kitchen. The pool was a nice addition and the whole outdoor area was a great place to hang out as a family. The only thing I might suggest is some travel size bath items like shampoo or soap. Otherwise we had a great time and would definitely rent here again.

Great Stay!

The location was very convenient and the property was comfortable and cozy. The owner was super helpful and very responsive. Overall, I enjoyed the property and we used ALL of the amenities from the bikes to the heated pool. We rented a golf cart, but could’ve also rented one that was already on property. We didn’t know.Nonetheless, everything was great! No regrets, and I would definitely recommend the property to others.
