About this property

Turtle Shell's Key West #7

Welcome to the Turtle Shell Key West! We recently purchased one of Surf City's iconic hotels and gave it a modern Airbnb remodel! This will be our 3rd big property upgrade - and we think we are beginning to perfect our vibe! This studio comes complete with a full-size bathroom, queen bed, smart TV, microwave & minifridge. Absolutely perfect location for a couple's getaway - PLUS DOG FRIENDLY! Walking distant to "downtown" Surf City, and steps away to the beach!

The Property: The Key West property features 7 studios & one 2-bedroom apartment with a full-size kitchen. The units are laid out side-by-side (No worries about hearing any footsteps above you!) Each unit has its own porch with privacy walls on each side!

Not only is the property stylish, but it is also pet friendly! The dog waste container with doggy bags is on the right side of the building. There is an outdoor shower area located in the middle and hose off on the right side of the building. We also have a first come - first serve beach box for beach toys! A public beach access is only a short walk from the property, along with MANY restaurants, shops and entertainment! We have a list of "Our Favorite" places printed out inside. (You can always ask us through Airbnb messenger, we are locals and love giving out recommendations!)

Key West #7 (Your Studio): Your 2-bedroom studio has 2 queen beds, 42'' Fire TVs in both bedrooms, microwave, Keurig coffee maker, mini fridge, and full-size walk-in shower!

We supply: 4 k-cups, sugar, creamer packs, travel size shower soap set, sound machine, starter paper towels and toilet paper, bed sheets (wrapped and placed on top of bed), and a set of towels.

IMPORTANT:

**We do suggest you bring extras if you plan on staying longer than a few days**
Since we use a local linen company, if you request extras there will be an added charge. Your studio receives two towel sets. A set includes: 2 towels, 2 wash clothes, and 2 hand towels.

Pets: We allow 2 pups max (only dogs, sorry!!) under 50 lbs. The space is not big enough to allow anything larger. We only have these restrictions so you will be comfortable!
** Please include your pups into your guest count. There is a $100 fee for up to 2 pups max!

You will have private access to your studio and your private porch! The grill area, beach box and pup area are shared with the other guests staying at Key West. Please be kind and leave each shared space clean and tidy!

We are always available through Airbnb messenger to help with any questions, or local recommendations!

Surf City is one of North Carolinas best kept secrets! A small-town feel, with a large group of welcoming locals! One of the best parts of this quaint beach town is it is still non-commercialized, and they plan on keeping it that way! Once you come visit Surf City you will not want to go anywhere else!

Turtle Shell Key West is in one of the best locations in Surf City. Most importantly, a public beach access is only one street over! Not only is it close to the beach, but you are also less than a 5-minute walk to shops, restaurants and entertainment! Park your car and you may not have to get back in it until you are headed back home!

Nice get-away
Place was very nice and clean. Bathroom was good size and quality of TVs in the rooms was good. We had 1 minor issue, but the owner was quick to respond and resolved it very quickly. It was clear they care about their guests and want them to have a good experience! The one caution I would give is that the place does not have a "common" area where you can sit on the couch and talk and watch TV. They do have outside chairs, so that was nice. But, if you want to sit inside and relax, you have to sit in the bed. Overall I would give the place high marks. Nice place!!

Recent stay at #7
Stay was awesome. Location is perfect. Sat outside a lot enjoying the beautiful weather. Bathroom looked brand new. Little bag with dog treats for our pet was thoughtful. It is two bedrooms, air conditioner was strong in one of the bedrooms and the other there was almost no air coming out. Will come back if we stay in the area again.

Key West Relaxation
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our favorite part of the trip was chilling on the porch and the nice big walk in shower. Everything was super clean upon arrival. Would definitely stay here again. Price is affordable. Everything was nice and well maintained.
