Excellent choice for SPI stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Seabatical SPI. The place was spacious and located a short walk to the beach. Our kids loved hanging out in the downstairs gameroom and splashing around in the pool.

Great Stay

Fabulous location, very close to the beach. House was great and the games room was an added bonus. Only constructive feedback is some of the pots and pans need replacing and outdoor sun beds a little tired.

Fantastic Family Retreat

We wanted to stay at a property that had everything for our family, and this was perfect! This house was equipped with everything needed, very clean, and big enough for multiple families. The walking distance to the beach was so close and easy. The refreshing swimming pool was amazing! We had family that flew in from California and they loved it!

Perfect house for large group

Great house- impeccably clean and comfortable. We had a group of 8 of us, and the house was large enough for gathering and yet having your own space. Kitchen was well equipped- and the living room area was so comfortable that all 8 of us could lounge and watch movies on a rain day. Thank you for sharing this property! Fantastic location.

Excellent Experience!

The whole experience, from check in to check out was just amazing. We have stayed in several houses on the island before, and this one was truly outstanding. We were in the house for 5 weeks and had no problems whatsoever. Everything you could possibly need is there. The pool area is the cherry on the cake. We would not hesitate to recommend this property for a great experience.

AMAZING!

Everything about our rental experience was smooth and easy. The check-in process was simple. The pictures and description show the beautiful home exactly as it is. The adults and teens loved the pool, and walked the short walk to the beach every day. The kitchen and the rest of the home was so well-equipped, that we never missed anything from home. I would definitely recommend this home to anyone with a large group of people, there were a lot of quiet spaces and a short walk to just about everything we needed!

Family Girls Trip

Great location! Close to everything and right next to the beach . There is a beach access that is directly next to the house that is very convenient. The pool was amazing and the house was very clean. Very kid, dog and family friendly. The first night we didn’t have enough blankets for the beds and after calling the after hours number they brought them right over !! I would definitely stay here again and recommend this place. They also have ample parking at the house as well.

Great Family Vacation Experience

Our family chose this property for our Christmas gathering. The property exceeded our expectations. Our grandkids really enjoyed the pool. We requested the pool to be warm for them and it definitely was. The kitchen was well equipped. It was supplied with many beach towels and beach equipment. The game room was also a hit with our family. The only negative is paper supplies could have been more adequately stocked.

Beautiful home. Heated pool was great for our very cold stay.

Owners allowed for a late checkout which was great. Everything you could possibly need is here. Need to get extra to and trash bags which we weren't prepared for but not a huge deal. Dollar general is very close. Blackbeard is within walking distance with great food but long waits at supper time. Would stay again. Weather was horrible but no one's fault there.

Great Location

great communication with the owners. easy check in process. great location - 4 houses down from the beach access. great size pool for our family of 16! owner was very helpful when i reached out about cloudiness of the pool. Owners immediately had the pool maint person out and even set the chiller to a lower temp to make the pool even more enjoyable! Only negative item was plates/bowls were not clean but that was a quick fix. overall great experience and awesome rental.

Great Location - Needs maintenance and more honest info

Excellent location and nice pool - great house overall. The listing says Queen sofa bed in game room but it was a cot sized rollout on a small couch with no cushion which we could not use. The doors to outside were sticking and hard to open plus the knob latch mechanism spirings were shot so you had to manually twist the knob to close the door and get the latch in place. Description says it sleeps 16 but we had to add a blowup mattress for our 11. Even with the added blowup mattress, 1 adult had to sleep on the top bunk bed.
