Our October stay

The house was perfect for our family that came with us. The weather was perfect and a little cool but that didn't take away from the fun. This was the first time we stayed on this side of the beach but we found it a treasure since our walk was shorter than our stays on the south side. Loved it!

Even Better Than Advertised

Everything was clean, well-organized, and well-thought out. Lots of little things done right - from the labeled light switches to the collection of books related to the local beaches (my daughters loved the books on shells). Can't beat the location, right next to the beach. We will consider staying again. Many thanks to the owner and the property manager for being such good hosts.

Best Beach Vacation Ever

From the moment you walk in the door of this beautiful property you can sense you are in for a restful, relaxing vacation. This home is crisp and clean with a beach house feel, but is so tastefully decorated it felt like home away from home. Diana has thought of everything - from a well stocked kitchen, to a supply of personal essentials should you need them. The beach is a short walk to the end of the street with an easy ramp walk over the dunes to the sand. This house will be my first choice when I return to Sunset Beach. Loved every moment! Thank you Diana and Frank.

Hidden gem in Sunset Beach

Our Sunset Beach visit in March proved to be exactly what we needed - a pre-season, relaxing weekend. The beach is an easy short walk straight down the street from the house. The owner seems to have thought of everything to help make this beach house feel like home for a few days. The house was very clean and has been recently renovated to be light, bright, and beautiful. (No dark wood paneling here) The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you need to prepare a meal, or you could just frequent the many nearby restaurants instead. Diana’s prompt communications and responsiveness to my inquiries helped make my vacation a wonderful success. I loved it so much that I am already planning a return trip!!

Ideal Family Cottage

Pirate’s Cove is a quick walk to the beach with a crosswalk that makes it easy. We loved that the kids had a separate living area where they could hang out. The front porch has a dining table plus rocking chairs for the older folks and there is an upstairs deck for sunning if you don’t want to head to the beach. The kitchen and cottage has everything that you need that usually aren’t provided. The owner was so helpful!

Amazing Stay!

Our family of 5 just returned from an amazing stay at Pirates Cove. What a beautiful home with everything any family could ever want for their vacation. The owner is the NICEST person and was super helpful. When I tell you this house is beautiful and clean, that is an understatement. The beach access is super close, and the stores, ice cream and sunset slush are a just a very quick walk away! We will definitely be staying again when we plan our next Sunset Beach vacation!!

Short walk to relaxation

This property is ideally located with a short walk to the beach as well as the convenience store, ice cream shop, coffee and more. The home was inviting and had all the ammenities a family needs after returning from a day at the beach. Diana was great with her communication and made it easy to stay. Our only request would have been to have propane grill rather than charcoal. Overall, we're looking forward to returning to sunset beach.

Beach Retreat

We could not have been more pleased with this property. It is a beautiful home in close proximity/short walk to the public beach access and provided us with a lovely, quiet getaway. You can easily walk to grab some coffee in the morning or a sweet treat in the afternoon in between time spent on the beach. You’re a short drive to local restaurants in Sunset or Calabash or could rent a bicycle to explore the island which we hope to do next time. The home is lovelier than the photos portray and the instructions were clear and easy to follow as far as the check in/check out process and what all the property had to offer. I would highly recommend this as a place to stay and look forward to visiting again in the future!!!
