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 - Kayak - Optional golf privileges - Tennis - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Motor boating nearby - Sailing 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 ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/61000000/60060000/60053200/60053180/8d4ef2aa.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Oceanfront Home with Expansive Views South Beach - Ocean view - Pool - Kitchen - Washer 10 Exceptional 47 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-18&endDate=2025-11-19&selected=60053180&PinnedHotelID=60053180&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![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=2025-11-18&endDate=2025-11-19&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=2025-11-18&endDate=2025-11-19&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) ### View Times Two - Oceanfront Cottage, Huge Deck w/Views, BHI Club w/Golf, 4 Suites, 3 Carts, Dogs OK West Beach - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.4 Exceptional 92 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-18&endDate=2025-11-19&selected=33672115&PinnedHotelID=33672115&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![4 bedrooms, iron/ironing board, travel crib, free WiFi](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33510000/33507700/33507601/00c69871.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Oceanfront /Spectacular Views/"OCEAN BEACH " South Beach - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 76 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-18&endDate=2025-11-19&selected=33507601&PinnedHotelID=33507601&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Marina](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33100000/33092600/33092571/69481375.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Park Place: On The Commons Park in Cape Fear Station, Walk to East Beach Cape Fear Station - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 75 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-18&endDate=2025-11-19&selected=33092571&PinnedHotelID=33092571&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96110000/96102000/96101918/607c5b03.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Newly Remodeled, 5 BR, across from South Beach.

This was our first visit to Bald Head Island and we could not have enjoyed our stay more at Life on the Sea. The house is very well appointed, the kitchen is wonderful, common areas are well designed. The location is terrific too. My only disappointment was the lack of usable beach chairs, and prepare to rent your own bikes if biking is something you intend to do. Other than that the place was amazing and I would certainly consider coming back! ##### Amy K. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Lauren H.

The living room needs new slip covers though ...they are badly stained. The kitchen was well equipped. The location is great! Short wAlk to the beach and short ride to the market! This is a great house for two families. The golf carts are in great shape. There are a ton of beach chairs and beach towels. I would stay here again! The property manager was very nice and attentive if we needed anything. ##### Lauren H. Stayed 14 nights in Jul 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hallie W. Jun 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beach House Growing Up :) We have stayed at many homes on Bald Head Island, but this was a fan favorite! This house was the perfect combination of being well appointed but not too much so. It reminded us of beach houses we grew up going to, and you can tell a lot of love and care is put into this house. Its location right across from the beach access is wonderful, SUPER easy to get on/off beach. Also, it is on a very private street which dead ends so we never felt like there was any traffic and safe for kids to walk across the road. We had read reviews commenting the golf carts were old. We did not feel that way at all and actually got comments on how plush the seats were! (For context, we have stayed in homes where the carts were much older.) The bunk room was a hit for our 3 kids, 3/5/7. The king bed on the first floor is memory foam, so that took us a night to get used to, but it was very comfortable! Kitchen was well appointed, everything you needed for a week at the beach. I would make sure to bring a fly swatter, when the doors open the flies seem to make their way in :) The only other note I will make is make sure to bring shoes (splinters) and for older adults, you do need to be able to walk up and down a flight of stairs to access the main living spaces :) Bathrooms were small on top floor but not bothersome to us. We would CERTAINLY return, this is a lovely house!! Thank you for allowing us to stay!! ##### Hallie W. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### maggie j., Maidens , Virginia Mar 19, 2019 #### What a great house!!! If you are like us, and spend hours looking at houses on VRBO, then hold your breath when you arrive on the Island hoping the photos and on line description did it justice... then here is a house for you!!! Edie, the manager is a joy to work with and very efficient and timely in her responces. The house is perfectly situated, mid Island (easy to get every where quickly), steps from Beach Access 21 (so you don't have to haul your chairs etc. far), with spectacular views. The owners have done an amazing renovation job and have maximized the floor plan to provide great socializing flow, nooks for the kids to snuggle into and separate living areas for adult vs kid pursuits. The rooms are open and airy with beautiful natural light, soft beach colors and comfortable furniture. The bedrooms offer a variety of bed set ups, gorgeous bathrooms, comfortable linens, towels and mattresses. The whole house was spotless! The kitchen is efficiently set up and was well organized with everything we required to cook family meals and had a variety of seating options (very kid friendly). The refrigerator is large and spacious enough to hold a weeks worth of groceries. The full size washer and dryer were much appreciated! The golf carts were in good working order and there were more than enough beach chairs, beach towels, sand shovels etc. to keep everyone happy. We hope to return again next year! ##### maggie j.

We loved that we were right at the beach access and had a large, quiet stretch of beach so close!All of the bedroom suites were comfortable and were beautifully decorated. Each of the four adult couples had plenty of room to spread out in their own space. We enjoyed hanging out in the common areas upstairs and down. My son-in-law was our on-site chef for the week. He found everything he needed in the spacious and well-appointed kitchen. The property had everything we needed.

Our multi-generational family had plenty of room to spread out and we loved the location. You can get anywhere on the island very easily. And the beach access is right across from the driveway which made it super convenient with two toddlers! The house is beautifully renovated with cozy furniture and a large kitchen where we enjoyed cooking. The property managers are wonderful to work with and even offered us an extra cart and early check in! Plenty of beach chairs for everyone and a large deck for relaxing and star gazing! We have stayed in many properties on the island and this was a favorite. ##### Mary Ben R.

Aug 10, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location - priced too high This was our 4th trip to BHI. This house had a great location on the island with access to everything and convenience. For the price we expected a bit more. Beds were not comfortable and squeaky, refrigerator does not have a water line and freezer was not working well. For an island I would think they would not want so much waste of water bottles and would have a filtered water line. We had a family of 10 and went through more than a case a day and had to buy gallon jugs as well. Kitchen faucet while cute was not functional. Bummed there was no ocean view from main level. You can only see the ocean from the top floor 2 bedrooms (not the bonus space). One bedroom with King has the smallest bathroom I've ever used (I left a drawer open and locked my husband inside) and the other bedroom has twin beds. The large golf cart is old and in need of repair (windshield broken, steering was a workout in itself) the second one is old but in decent condition. But all in all a great house, space, access to the beach. Storage and shower under house was fantastic. I would have given it a 5 star if the cost was less but we paid $14k and just expected more. ##### Lupe R. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JANE T.

There were 5 adults and 3 children under 8 in our group. The ferry ride over was magical to the children as well as the adults and everything worked seamlessly. The house was clean, comfortable and well stocked. The beds were comfortable, the location on Silverside Trail was very convenient to the entire island and the beach in front was huge….even at high tide. The property managers were dreamy to work and responded very quickly to every question we had. It’s a wonderful house for families and we hope to return. ##### JANE T.

Jul 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### BHI Summer Get Aeay We have been coming to BHI for years and love it! Life on the Sea accommodated our family of 9 with age ranges 1-70 (4 were children) very well! House is roomy, good kitchen items, lots of porch space, 2 golf carts and close to market! We were disappointed that we could not see the ocean from the main floor or from main floor porches as it is oceanfront property. The proximity to the beach was great especially with children and beach toys/chairs! We did have issues getting TV on and with fridge beeping due to filter change needed. We had a fun week at Life on the Sea! ##### Sue P. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jayne S.

We are a group of 3 couples that have an annual trip to BHI each spring. We loved our 2nd year staying at this property. It is perfect for our group for many reasons - beach access, large deck, kitchen/bar, location to market & BHI Club, bedrooms with private baths, 2 golf carts. Edie and Katie are great - always check in on us and care that everything is in order. Plan to book again for next year! ##### Jayne S. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### todd l.

Amazing ##### Una K.

Loved being right near the boardwalk to beach. Three grandsons loved the chance to boogie board several times a day. House is beautifully decorated with pleasant colors throughout. Loved having two kings and the children’s bunkroom was perfect. Central location close to market and BHIC was great. Missed having bicycles for us to ride with our grandsons. Edie is great to work with and trust she will take care of any problem that might come up. The massive windows all throughout the house add so much to the experience. Missing our Life at Sea already! ##### katherine b. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bethany B.

Easy check in and the house was equipped with everything we needed . Hope to stay again ! ##### Bethany B. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Towles L.

Everyone had their own space, which is critical with three teenage girls and one dad, this but the common areas were also adored. We could tell from the pictures we’d like the great room and all of its light. Great location. ##### Towles L.
