Things to Know • Beach towels provided • Large laundry room • No parties or events allowed • Professionally managed and maintained for your comfort REVIEW Date of Stay - March 13, 2016 Five Stars! Our party of 10 enjoyed a wonderful spring break week at Life on the Sea! The home offered plenty of room and privacy for our group of 4 adults and 6 college students. The home is definitely a great vacation spot for all ages and occasions! We love to cook and enjoyed the well-appointed kitchen. The beachfront location is ideal and the views from the house are magnificent. The home was very clean and so nicely decorated. It was nice to have two golf carts to explore the island. Lots of fun was had by all! We will definitely be back and will recommend this lovely home to all our family and friends! REVIEW 5 Stars! Date of Stay -Jun 16, 2017 We enjoyed our stay at Life on the Sea! The location is ideal. We were so happy to find nice beach chairs. The layout worked well for us and we appreciated having private bathrooms off of each bedroom and a separate space for the kids to watch movies. The views and the light in the house because of its windows and its openness make it an uplifting place to be. REVIEW October 2017 We spent a wonderful week here for our daughter's wedding. The house is incredible! We enjoyed being across the street from the ocean. Our 80-year-old grandmother appreciated having her room on the main floor and she had no difficulty with the steps going to the beach. Interestingly we discovered bioluminescent photo plankton on the beach. Stomping the sand or swishing your foot on the sand at night create a dazzling sparkle show. Amazing. The property manager was so helpful and everything went so smoothly could not have asked for a better place or a better property manager. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car not required - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 5 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 5.5 private bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Flat-screen TV with cable/satellite channels - Games - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Hardwood flooring in public areas - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (on request) - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near the marina - Near the ocean ### Things to do - Golf - Gym - Optional golf privileges - Pickleball - Tennis - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Housekeeping (on request) - Unit size: 2,800 square feet ## Similar properties ![A heated pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/94000000/93040000/93031700/93031635/534e2989.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Luxury Home with Private Saltwater Pool BHI and Shoals Clubs Bald Head Island - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 15 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-05&endDate=2025-12-06&selected=93031635&PinnedHotelID=93031635&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/86000000/85780000/85778700/85778696/b566d7fd.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stunning Ocean and Sunset Views Steps to South Beach Hot Tub and Pet Friendly Bald Head Island - Ocean view - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 10 Exceptional 41 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-05&endDate=2025-12-06&selected=85778696&PinnedHotelID=85778696&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33680000/33672200/33672115/846fb421.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 10% Off Remaining 2025!
