The house was fabulous! Great views of the beach. The kitchen had great space and was very well stocked. The bedrooms and bathrooms were great. Everything was clean and inviting. I definitely want to go back again.
What a great house right on the beach! It had everything we needed, and more. My parents enjoyed the elevator for bringing bags to the top floor, and the kids loved the spacious bedrooms and quick access to the beach! Ingrid was an awesome host and kept in contact with us through checkout. We can’t wait to come back!
Owners very accessible and accommodating. Really enjoyed location and accommodations. High quality beach chairs, cooking pans, appliances and all the little things that make a family vacation great and memorable!

Thank you for staying with us! We are so happy that you and your family enjoyed our home!
Wonderful home, absolutely perfect in every way! All the rooms were comfortable and spacious, the kitchen was well-stocked, and we felt so lucky being able to open the door and walk down the steps to the beach! The elevator made life easier, and the decks were perfect for watching the stars and listening to the waves in the evenings. Ingrid was kind and helpful, and we will definitely be coming back as soon as possible!
This house was perfect for our family, including our adult children and grandkids. Extremely clean, well stocked and
great floor plan for our group. Beautiful beach steps away and many amenities to make this a wonderful vacation home away from home. Host is very responsive and thoughtful. We can't wait to return!
We had an amazing family vacation the first week of April! The beach access, the cleanliness of the property, and the friendliness/ communication with the property manager were the best we have ever had. Can't wait to return!
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!
This place was so well stocked for cooking and lots of chairs for relaxing on the beach! It is located right on the beach!!
It was beautifully decorated throughout. We want to come back here next year!! Thanks to the owners for making this thanksgiving a special memory for our family!!!
The home was very well cared for, and the property owner communicated promptly and respectfully. Space was ample, and there were plenty of games and beach chairs provided for our use. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Thank you McKinney family for your kind comments. We are so happy that you had such a wonderful time at the house. We hope you will consider coming back again. 🐠☀️- Ingrid
We had a wonderful week at Surf City. Sea the View was a perfect home away from home. Perfect location, nicely decorated and very well stocked with everything we needed. Lots of fun in the surf by day and long walks and fun games at night. We will be back!
This house has every possible thing you could need for a family vacation. Definitely the most well stocked house we’ve ever rented. Can’t beat beachfront either! We had a great time.
Absolutely perfect! Everything was clean, neat, and well stocked. Our hosts were so thoughtful and accommodating. I can’t wait to return next summer!

Exactly what we needed!
We cannot say how pleased we were with Our stay, well, other than not booking more of a stay. We enjoyed fishing, swimming, and mingling with other visitors in the area. The house exceeded our every expectation as did our hosts. Wonderful experience.

Thank you so much! We are so happy that you and your family enjoyed your stay.
As returning vacationers we were as pleased this time as our year before. Everything was clean. There was not one thing we needed. Ingrid is the ultimate hostess. ❣️⛱️☀️
We loved everything. We were especially impressed with how well stocked the kitchen was with cookware. Also, really enjoyed bacci ball. The non-sun people loved being able to sit on the deck and see the ocean. I didn't read the part about needing linens until we were an hour away from the house, and Ingrid hooked me up with Sweet Dreams Linens who were super easy to work with and fast!
The location is perfect. We booked for next year on the way home!

Great house, great homeowners!
This house worked great for our family. Great beach location. Had an issue with the internet and the homeowners had the internet company at the house that day for repairs and delivered a new router to the house that evening. Very pleased with their quick response time! House was clean and well maintained. Elevator was very helpful for loading and unloading groceries and suitcases. Loved the high chairs on the deck.

We loved having you and your family stay at our home! It was a pleasure talking with you on the phone. We are happy that you enjoyed your stay!
It doesn’t get better than this rental home. And home is how it felt. The house was stocked with everything you could possibly need on vacation, expansive spaces, beautifully decorated and superbly comfortable inside and out. The view is incomparable! We saw dolphins and a few reef sharks during the day and starred at the stars at night. The hosts are as good as it gets. They were incredibly thoughtful in helping us kick start two birthday celebrations, making for an outstanding experience from beginning to end. We are already planning a trip back!
Our stay was fantastic. The property was clean and extremely well equipped. Although sheets and towels were not provided, there were plenty of blankets and pillows. The beds were clean and comfortable. The kitchen was supplied with good quality pots and pans and a great selection of implements and really anything else you could need. Although the weather was chilly while we were there, we did see many items that would make for fun at the beach. There were also lots of games, books, etc to keep an array of ages occupied. The location right at the beach with the majestic Atlantic in your back yard absolutely cannot be beat. We felt quite safe in the area, as well, and grocery stores are a short drive away. In short, I highly recommend a stay here!!

We loved this house and location so much that we rebooked this year and we’re just as happy.
To begin, working with the owners is a breeze. Any questions we had were answered in a timely manner. They were accommodating and friendly.
The layout of the house was perfect for our family and it was well stocked with items. We didn’t have to bring or rent umbrellas or chairs because they had them (and brand new nice ones too!). It was nice to not have to pack items for the baby like a high chair or pack and play because it was provided.
The house is well kept. Newer amenities. Rooms are large and bright. In two years we haven’t been able to find a negative to this home.
Thank you Kathy and Sean for another beautiful week at your home.

About the host
Hosted by Ingrid
Our blended family of 8 wanted to find a place where we can reconnect, share some laughs and make some awesome memories. We found "Sea The View" in Surf City this year (2020) and fell in love the moment we saw the view.... The prior owners took amazing care of this property and every review was better than the next. Our goal is to meet up & use the property a few weeks a year (since we live in different states), yet mostly share the house with other families who are looking for a rental / vacation home to get away.
Jeffrey and I have 6 kids ranging from the ages of 17 - 29 yrs. Most of the kids are in some stage of education from two seniors in high school, college & law school. The kids live everywhere from Florida to North Carolina to Maine. Its a rarity for us to get together so we are hoping this 1/2 way point will be a great addition to family gatherings.
Thank you for checking out the house! We are looking forward to having you here. CHEERS - Ingrid & Jeffrey
