HipNautical Oceanfront

RENOVATION COMPLETE!! RIGHT ON THE BEACH! Unobstructed views for miles. Walk out the back door, off the deck then immediately you are on the sand! Stunning ocean view from the cozy indoor sitting area. Very private with no neighbors to the south and blocked view of the north houses yet walking distance to popular hot spot eateries. Large 50-inch TV in family room and TVs in all three bedrooms. Rokus with active Hulu and Netflix on all four! Two queen bedrooms and the third with two Duo bunks. Two baths, one with tub/shower combination, the other full-size walk-in shower with seat and pull-down sprayer. Linens included at no additional cost. Kitchen well equipped. All new cabinets, granite and appliances. New large capacity washer and dryer. Non-Smoking home. Unfortunately, since two incidents a month after renovation, we are NO LONGER a pet vacation rental.

Just as advertised

Family loved our stay. Property is in a great location and clean. We brought our 2 dogs and the house was accommodating for them as well with covers on the sofas, food bowls, and gates on the deck that we appreciated.

Location is everything

Right on the beach with unmatched views of the ocean! We loved it here, especially on the back deck. It is a great place to see dolphins (and sting rays!).The recently upgraded appliances and kitchen cabinets were very nice. We really enjoyed it here and hope to return for future vacations.

Absolutely fantastic stay! Lovely home with everything you need to make your vacation perfect. Very clean and views that simply can't be beat. Loved the huge deck and the gate to keep our sweet pup, Bonnie, safe. We fell asleep every night to the sounds of waves and woke up to them. Lots of delicious restaurants close by!! We will definitely book this lovely home again. 10/10 Thanks for the great week!

Just what we needed

Amazing deck; location is unbeatable… walk over (around) the dunes and into the beach! The deck is just awesome with such expansive views. Sunrise every morning while sipping coffee and taking our dogs to play on the beach was the greatest way to start our days! Outdoor shower is fantastic with actually a hot and cold line… and a hose line… so cleaning up coming off the beach is so easy and helped keep the sand off the dogs. A/C unit is a little older and had some trouble keeping up mid day with direct sun; but got comfortable again by the night with all the fans on.

The perfect week at the beach! The house was clean and had everything we needed for our week at the beach. Our sons loved playing with the toys in the bunk room when they weren't playing in the ocean and sand (also loved the boogie boards and sand toys the house also provided!). Kitchen was well stocked for any cooking needs but the house is also located within minutes of so many great restaurants if you're not up for cooking. It was our first time going in June due to the school calendar and it wasn't crowded at all. Highly recommend.

Always an amazing stay at Hip Nautical!

This was our third stay at Hip Nautical. Perfect location, the owners are very thoughtful and do a lot of extras to make your stay wonderful. Our pups loved it too! Dog friendly, spacious and absolutely stunning views! They have a great deck on the oceanfront. We love it!

Great Getaway

Awesome beach front house and perfect place to relax. Convenient to stores / restaurants / sights. Hosts are helpful and available for any questions should needs arise and have thought of all the "little things" inside. Can see many upgrades have been done to the property already and sounds like more are planned, should make this very nice place even nicer!

Dolphins, pelicans and beautiful weather.

We saw so very many dolphins this trip along with a lot of pelicans. Watching them from the huge deck with the magnificent views was amazing. Weather was great, sunny and warm. Free Netflix is always a plus. Great restaurants, bagels and a bakery all within a few miles of Hip Nautical keeps cooking at a minimum. We hope to get back again next year.
