- No smoking - No pets allowed - No events, parties, or large gatherings - Must be at least 25 years old to book - Additional fees and taxes may apply - Photo ID may be required upon check-in - NOTE: The 2 story-home requires an exterior staircase to enter - NOTE: Please note that the city of Surfside Beach occasionally has water quality issues that affect all houses in Surfside. While the water is perfectly safe, it does sometimes smell bad. To help mitigate this as best we can, we have installed a whole-house water filtering system. This system filters all the water coming into the house, including the water for the dishwasher, washing machine, and showers. In addition, we have installed a reverse-osmosis water filter at the kitchen sink to provide the purest possible drinking water. However, if you are concerned about this, we do advise that you bring bottled drinking water. Again, this applies to any house that you might rent in Surfside Beach - NOTE: Your safety matters. This property features an exterior security camera looking out over the driveway. The camera does not look into any interior spaces

Great location! House and amenities were exactly as represented, and the management was responsive to inquiries. We had a great Mom/Son weekend after freshman year in college! Thanks for a great home away from home, we will be back!

Everything was perfect. House is beautiful. Location is perfect. The walk over is a huge bonus. Everything you need is there for you. We will be staying again.
This property was true to the listing, the house was clean, comfortable and well stocked with all the essentials. The owner was easy to reach and we had a great stay.

We recently stayed at Sea Shell Chalet and had an amazing time. The house was perfect in every way, accommodated our large family very well. The weather cooperated all week too. I would definitely recommend going through Evolve for rentals and would love to return to this exact property for future family vacations/gatherings.
We had a great stay. This house was perfect for littles with just a short walk to the beach. Was convenient for family flying into Houston and driving to the stadiums. Endless beach toys were provided, and the kitchen was well equipped for large family meals. Will book again!
The location is perfect , easy access to the beach and was able to enjoy an amazing sunset , The house was very clean and amenities for the kitchen, bedrooms were fully stocked , plenty of seating for lounging and the check in process was easy and the owner came and sprayed for mosquitos since it has recently rained . My family had a wonderful experience and would definitely rent again Thank you
The house is wonderful, kitchen is fully equipted, pleanty of towels for the beach, beach toys, just a great place to enjoy the family, and the beach. the Tropical storm came for a visit, but... no one had an issue with that. We would stay here again.
Seashell Chalet is a clean, welcoming and comfortable home. Love the layout of the home and types of beds in bedrooms. Access to the beach is a “ramped” walk over the dunes. We LOVED the decks and hammocks!
Owner very accessible.

Family Beach Trip
Our family absolutely loved the beach house. It was beautifully furnished and decorated. The kitchen was very well stocked and there was lots of storage for all our stuff. The location and view were great! I loved sitting on the deck with a cold drink and listening to the ocean. We all enjoyed playing in the surf and sand.
The house was simply beautiful. Three families fit in this house and we still had space. The walking bridge is a 30 second walk to the beach. Sitting on the outdoor balcony to tan with the ocean in full view was beautiful. We’ll be back!!!

Nice house on quiet end of beach.
One of the newest houses in Surfside. Very well equipped kitchen. Both balconies have good chairs to enjoy the view. Everything worked and the house was very clean. The bedrooms are very large and have attached bathrooms.
This is the second time we have stayed at this house. Still in perfect condition. Beds are comfy, home is clean and spacious for everyone to not be on top of each other. The decks are great to sit out and talk with each other; or watch and listen to the ocean.
