Private Heatable Pool, Ocean View, Two Master Suites & Steps to Beach at this Modern, Renovated Home

Beach living doesn't get any better than this! Swim By the Sea is the "get away from it all" beach side vacation home that you've been looking for! This modern, beautifully renovated home features exceptional outdoor spaces, including a private pool and patio tucked away within a fenced-in yard, a wrap-around screened porch with ocean views and a second floor sun deck that provides a birds eye view of the crashing ocean waves. Dip your toes in the sand, cool off in our private pool, feel the warmth of the sun on your skin on our sun deck and enjoy the swirl of ocean breezes in your hair on our screened porch.

This recently renovated vacation home features two master suites on the home's first floor and an open floor plan layout between the kitchen, dining and living room areas with extraordinary ocean views throughout much of the home. You'll find impeccable design details and craftsmanship throughout the home including stained heart pine floors, gorgeous tile work, custom cabinetry and vaulted ceilings.

The nearest beach access path is just two doors down the street. After you return home from the beach, you can rinse away the salt & sand in the home's outdoor shower and lounge poolside, read a book in one of the home's many separate seating areas or prepare a feast in the cook's kitchen. Swim By the Sea provides an excellent opportunity to build lifelong memories with your friends & family.

The perfect Beach house
This property is amazing. This is one of the nicest VRBO rentals I've ever stayed out. Incredibly clean with tons of amenities. Our children loved the Bunk room. Your only a brief walk to the ocean and even though the house wasn't ocean front you could still see the ocean from the balcony. I would def choose this house again if and when we return to IOP.

Excellent property, lovely stay
We had such a nice time at Steven's property 'Swim by the Sea'. We booked for the first week of January to do a family reunion / late-holiday celebration, and everything exceeded our expectations. The heated outdoor pool and hot tub in the wintertime were a huge hit with the kids. All the interior amenities and sleeping quarters were very nice. Steven is extremely communicative for remote check in processes, and texted frequently throughout the stay. We only had 1 snag a few days in when the home's gas tank was empty, but as soon as we notified Steven he had Carolina Gas out to see us within a couple hours and we were right back on track. The views of sunrise and sunset, as well as star-gazing, from the second floor balcony were spectacular. We walked to the beach every day for some relaxing jaunts. Really couldn't have asked for more, I hope we can stay again some day! Thanks Swim by the Sea!

Awesome stay!!
This was an excellent VRBO to stay in on IOP. Not only was it spacious, but just minutes of a walk to the beach and very centrally located. I highly recommend this house for a big family trip or a friends group, we absolutely loved it!!

Great place!
We did a girls trip here and the house is gorgeous! Property was clean and the check in process was easy. The only downside was the heater for the pool and hot tub was broken, and we were not given any sort of notice ahead of time. We had to inquire to find out. However, the property manager/owner was quick to respond. Overall great stay, I just wish we would’ve known ahead of time about the heater since that was a big selling point of the house.

Beautiful home
Home was very beautiful and perfect location for our group with children. The yard was a great asset and kids really enjoyed the loft upstairs. The main space is great for entertainment and open which made it easy for our large group to enjoy each others’ company. The pool could have been a better experience. We paid extra to use the hot tub and pool and the hot tub never worked. It was very inconvenient to have to schedule use/heat time with the rental group and added what we felt was unnecessary complications. Would recommend fully understanding the use policy before paying to use the added services. Overall, we enjoyed the trip despite the challenges with the pool and the cold weather. The home was beautiful.

Nice house and pool
Nice house and pool. Love the layout inside and out. The interior design was attractive. We Wish there were blinds on the 2 big picture windows in the master bath. Instead, we used the bunk room bathroom for privacy. I did not realize there is no beach access on this street. We walked to a different access point a block over. Not a bad walk. The touch screen at the front door had helpful information and was a neat way to check in and out. Overall, it was a nice rental. Thank you for renting to us!
