There is also access to the public beaches (3), boat ramp, marina, park, basketball courts, seasonal swimming pool (Sea Isle POA charges $100/week for amenity pass, available from the office during normal business hours, with advanced notice by 979's staff, Memorial Day through Labor Day, subject to change) and tennis courts, so guests get an opportunity to experience the benefits of both the Gulf and Bay sides of the island.

In addition, all of our homes feature luxury hotel-quality/high thread count on all sheets, bedding, and bath towels which are replaced upon every turnover including the duvet covers and shams (we've heard not every company does this, and we think that's just gross).

We want your stay to be as easy as you do, and the 979 Crew aims to deliver on that commitment. We love our island guests!

House is lovely! Really nice set up! Beautiful decks both up and down. We had a little confusion about the boat slip, my fault for not reading more carefully. Good communication with 979 . They answer emails etc very quickly! Great long weekend!
