About this property

Ocean Views! Pool, Spa, Private Backyard in OKI

  • Summary:

    BookSmart Properties presents: Lion by the Sea! This stunning home boasts ocean views, a private pool and spa (that can be heated for a fee w/ advance request), and an ideal location just blocks from OKI perks. Enjoy a private family cookout in the fenced yard, or dine together as a group in the spacious dining room after the chef of your family whips something up in the stocked kitchen! Each bedroom offers a private evening escape with coastal charm to add to the ambience. You don't want to miss out on this home!



    The Space:

    Welcome to Lion by the Sea! Boasting ocean views, a private fenced yard with a pool (Pool heating is available by advance request at $150 per night; if requested, it must be applied for the full duration of your stay and cannot be added for partial dates), a hot tub to relax in from 6pm-10pm, an outdoor oasis for a family barbecue, and a modern interior that sleeps 10, this home will book up fast. From top to bottom the interior sparkles with modern luxuries and coastal charm.



    The kitchen is clean and spacious, offering all the tools for the chef in your group to create fabulous dinners for all. Enjoy together at the large table indoors, or take it outside and dine al fresco while soaking up the sun. Three barstools are perfect for chatting while cooking, grabbing a quick snack before the beach, or a morning cup of coffee. The living area is located just off of the kitchen and is filled with natural light from the many windows, offering a bright space to start your day and a cozy spot to unwind in the evenings.



    The bedrooms are both spacious and quaint, immersing you in the beachy ambience and unlocking "vacation mode." Each king bedroom has a private, ensuite full bath, as well as deck access right from the room. The queen bedrooms have a shared jack and jill full bath, so no matter where you sleep you will have the utmost convenience. There is a sleeper sofa for 2 additional guests.



    Outside, the beach is literally across the road, with public access points only a block away. If you need a break from the sand and opt to stay home, you can still soak up the Carolina sunshine and work on your suntan in the sunloungers by the private pool. There is a fence surrounding the backyard ensuring you have the most private oasis possible. End the evening in the hot tub from 6-10pm after a family barbecue around the built in grill. There is an outdoor shower for your convenience to help keep the house sand free and comfortable during your stay.

Lion by the Sea was the perfect choice for our family weekend getaway! The home was beautiful, welcoming, comfy, and clean with great ocean views. Beach access was right across the road and steps away from the house. After a day at the beach, we enjoyed the backyard with a large pool, adjoining spa, fire pit, and gas grill in the evening. The location was very convenient and close to Publix, coffee shops, and restaurants. Our host was awesome and very responsive. We would definitely stay here again!

Spectacular house with an amazing view. This was a spring break rental for my wife and I along with our three kids. Although the temperatures outside was not ideal during our week there, the heated pool option and hot tub were a perfect way for us to enjoy the beach for walks while still being able to enjoy water relaxation. The outdoor gas fireplace and huge grill area really added some extra charm. The house itself was very clean and a perfect layout overall. The location was a perfect spot between visits to Myrtle Beach and Wilmington. Great ocean views in a really quaint town. Highly recommend for a relaxing-low key family vacation. Host was very responsive.

This property is absolutely gorgeous! The backyard is an oasis with a beautiful pool, hot tub, and fire pit with tons of great seating options. You have a beautiful view of the ocean from both porches! The kitchen was very well appointed and the reclining couches were a favorite! The kitchen, bathrooms, and floors were very clean when we arrived - the bedrooms, dressers, and drawers could have been wiped down/dusted a little more. We did run into a few maintenance issues while staying here, but the host was extremely responsive, kind, and helpful. We had some issues with pool temperature, hot water in the shower, tv’s not working in bedrooms, and the fire pit key - there were also quite a few tiles falling off around the pool. But, we would definitely stay here again. The convenience of this location to the grocery stores, restaurants, and park is unmatched! And the gorgeous backyard and immaculate backyard really are hard to beat! Wish we could go back already.
