Stunning Ocean Views, Spacious 6BR En Suite, Large Balcony! Ping Pong/Foosball!

The Princess and the Sea is a beautiful oceanfront home with 6 bedrooms, each with a private bathroom, that sleep 19 in beds.

Plenty of room for the whole multi-generational family or your group of friends. Family friendly neighborhood without much traffic on Crenshaw Beach, one of the best beaches in the area with wide, sandy beach area. Note there is no direct walkover - must go to nearest public beach access to access the beach, a 1 minute drive or 5-minute walk

The Princess and the Sea Beach House truly deserves a 5-star rating! Every bedroom had its own private bath and beautiful balcony with breathtaking views. Parking was never an issue—we comfortably parked 8 vehicles with room to spare.There’s an awesome game room that kept both kids and adults entertained. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream and fully stocked with everything you could imagine—Melinda left nothing out, from toasters and mixers to gorgeous serving dishes. There were plenty of kitchen and bathroom towels, dual washers and dryers, and even an extra refrigerator for additional storage.Outside amenities were just as impressive, with a great smoker and fire pit—the list honestly goes on and on. Melinda also checked in several times to make sure everything was going smoothly and reminded us to reach out if we needed anything, which made our stay even better.If you’re looking for the perfect place for a beach getaway, this is absolutely the place to stay!

Perfect Weekend Getaway

I host an annual mother-daughter trip each year and this house fit the bill in all areas. Spacious rooms, great location, wonderful views and each bedroom with its own bathroom was a HUGE plus. That is what sold me on this home. It was beautiful, had all of the necessities that we needed and was just perfect for us! We will return again.

Best Family Vacation Ever

The house was amazing! Felt like home from the moment we stepped in. The layout is perfect for family get togethers including cooking dinners together to playing games. We had a group of 12 including 3 children and we all fit comfortably and each family had their own private space. The views from the deck are breathtaking and the hosts were very responsive and checked on us a few times to make sure everything was going well! Would definitely recommend this property for your next vacation stay!

Perfect for our Large Famiy

The home fit perfectly for our multi-generational gathering. From grandparents to teens/toddler, there was a place for everyone to be comfortable and have fun. We love to cook when we are all together and the kitchen allowed for multiple people to work at the same time. I suggest a golf cart to transport people and beach stuff, and of course to enjoy riding up and down the beach. Thank you for a wonderful week... lots of memories were made and we hope to stay again!

Great house for multiple families

Rented this house to celebrate our parents 50th wedding anniversary and it was the perfect location. All the grandchildren shared a room and all three of my siblings and their spouses had their own room and bathroom. We had some extended family and close friends stop by one afternoon and everyone commented on how nice the place was. The weather wasn't the best but the house was large enough that everyone had plenty of room to move about. Kitchen and bedrooms were laid out perfect.
