Amazing Stay!
Our family of 5 just returned from an amazing stay at Pirates Cove. What a beautiful home with everything any family could ever want for their vacation. The owner is the NICEST person and was super helpful. When I tell you this house is beautiful and clean, that is an understatement. The beach access is super close, and the stores, ice cream and sunset slush are a just a very quick walk away! We will definitely be staying again when we plan our next Sunset Beach vacation!!

Short walk to relaxation
This property is ideally located with a short walk to the beach as well as the convenience store, ice cream shop, coffee and more. The home was inviting and had all the ammenities a family needs after returning from a day at the beach. Diana was great with her communication and made it easy to stay. Our only request would have been to have propane grill rather than charcoal. Overall, we're looking forward to returning to sunset beach.

Beach Retreat
We could not have been more pleased with this property. It is a beautiful home in close proximity/short walk to the public beach access and provided us with a lovely, quiet getaway. You can easily walk to grab some coffee in the morning or a sweet treat in the afternoon in between time spent on the beach. You’re a short drive to local restaurants in Sunset or Calabash or could rent a bicycle to explore the island which we hope to do next time. The home is lovelier than the photos portray and the instructions were clear and easy to follow as far as the check in/check out process and what all the property had to offer. I would highly recommend this as a place to stay and look forward to visiting again in the future!!!

Beautiful beach. Wonderful house.
It’s hard to describe how fantastic this beach house is or how amazing Sunset Beach also happens to be. The house is well stocked, very clean and perfectly located at just a few hundred steps from the beach. The owner is so responsive and the house has everything you need. The beach is beautiful! We will definitely stay again.

Pirate Cove Review
A group of five women rented this property for a long weekend and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Pirates Cove. The house was clean and the amenities were plentiful. You didn’t need to worry if you forgot something because it was provided by the host (who was always prompt in responding to our questions). Our location was perfect because it was only a short walk to the beach. We did take a beach wagon which helped tremendously. I would not hesitate to rent this house again.

Even Better Than Advertised
Everything was clean, well-organized, and well-thought out. Lots of little things done right - from the labeled light switches to the collection of books related to the local beaches (my daughters loved the books on shells). Can't beat the location, right next to the beach. We will consider staying again. Many thanks to the owner and the property manager for being such good hosts.

What an amazing place!
What an amazing time we had staying at Pirate's Cove for a long girl's weekend away. The house has everything you need for a relaxing stay and the owner is an absolute doll to work with. The screened in porch is much bigger than it looks in the pictures and even in November we enjoyed sitting outside and watching the sunset over the other houses or you can take a short walk to the beach to see the beautiful sunrises and sunsets. All of the light switches and other things throughout the house are labeled so you don't have to guess which switch goes to which light which is really great when you have so many to choose from. The furniture and bedding are very comfortable, the place is spacious, and there's plenty of parking space. I could go on and on but I'm running out of typing space so I'll just say BOOK IT, you won't be disappointed!

The house was perfect for our family that came with us. The weather was perfect and a little cool but that didn't take away from the fun. This was the first time we stayed on this side of the beach but we found it a treasure since our walk was shorter than our stays on the south side. Loved it!

Pirates Cove is a dream vacation spot
Our annual multi-generational family vacation in Sunset was delightful thanks to our stay at Pirates Cove. Diana is a wonderful host and extremely organized. Everything is well labeled and she offers little touches to make your stay exceptional. Pirates Cove boasts wonderful accommodations (decor/comfy beds/skylights). We rented a beach cart to take walks/shell hunting at Tubbs Inlet and Bird Island, but you don't need one for the day to day. Pirates Cove is situated very close to walk to the 3rd Street beach access. It is a long ADA accessible ramp over the dunes and unlike the other accesses there are no steps that you have to hoist your beach carts over! YAY! We enjoyed stargazing from the top deck and enjoying meals and sitting in the rocking chairs on the screened in porch. The charcoal grill is perfect for cooking your favorite fish/picnic style meals. This home and its owners are true gems that we're missing already!
