About this house rental

Nestled right on the Atlantic in the Sea Pines Plantation, 22 Black Skimmer Rd is frequently praised as a dreamy, family-friendly escape — the kind of place where you make lifelong memories. Guests consistently highlight its fantastic location, with private beach access via the owner’s own pathway, so you’re just steps away from the sand yet still tucked away in a peaceful, private setting. And Sea Pines itself is a world-class community, with PGA golf, dining, extensive bike trails, racquet sports facilities and some of the world's most beautiful beach at your fingertips.

This spacious home masterfully blends beach cottage charm with modern comforts. With six bedrooms and 6.5 baths, it can comfortably sleep large families or multiple generations. The layout is well-designed: there’s an open-plan living and dining area, a fully equipped kitchen with adjacent BBQ grill, a formal dining room, and a dedicated work space/office — plus an elevator, making it accessible for guests who prefer not to use the stairs.

Outside, the property really shines. The private pool (16’ × 34’) is a favorite among guests — beautifully maintained, often heated on request, and surrounded by a lush backyard garden. The upstairs deck overlooking the ocean provides a relaxing spot to unwind, dine, or just take in the sea breeze.

Inside, guests say the home is very well stocked — top-notch kitchen gear, plenty of towels, and smart-sized common areas make it easy to cook, entertain, and hang out comfortably. Multiple flat-panel TVs and a reliable internet connection (10 MB broadband) also make it a great mix of getaway and functional home base.

A few recurring themes from reviews:
•Responsiveness: The owner (Ted) gets high marks for communication — guests say he’s very quick to respond and fix any minor issues.
•Cleanliness: Reviewers repeatedly mention how clean and well-maintained the house is.
•Privacy + Tranquility: Despite being oceanfront, the home feels secluded. Many note how peaceful it is, especially given how close you are to the beach without being directly exposed.
•Family-friendly: With its large size, multiple bathrooms, and flexible sleeping arrangements, it’s very well-suited to family groups.
Ideal For
•Multi-generational families or groups of friends looking for a spacious, luxury beachfront home.
•Guests who value direct beach access without compromising on privacy.
•Relaxation-focused vacations, with both pool and ocean options for downtime.
•Travelers who appreciate both comfort and thoughtful amenities, from a fully stocked kitchen to multiple entertaining areas.

This was a wonderful place for a week-long family get-together. The house is spacious, with plenty of bathrooms and sitting space. The kitchen appliances, air conditioning, and wifi all worked great. There is a spacious covered porch overlooking the shore and dunes. You're surrounded by quiet woods and greenery, but it's not that far a drive to the local Publix and Starbucks. There are many good restaurants nearby. We loved it!!

Commutation with owner was helpful. We were hopeful that debris from tropical storm early in the week would have been taken care of but it was not a significant issue.

Great property for a family vacation. The backyard, pool and private beach access were fantastic. Ted was great with communication and made everything very smooth.

Beautiful house with amazing back porch and Ocean view. The house is right on the Beach. You don’t have to walk out a long walkway/pier to get to the Beach....it is literally at the property edge. House is ideally located a short walk or bike ride to South Beach/Salty Dog , golf, Beach Club and Harbortown. .
