About this property
Oceanfront, perfect for families!
Welcome to Serenity by the Sea, Side A! (You can also rent side B by checking our other listing at VRBO#1114068) Located less than a mile from the popular pier in Surf City, our newly updated, 4 bedroom OCEANFRONT home is the perfect place for your next family getaway! This house has enough room for everyone with 4 bedrooms and 3 baths. Wake up to the sound of the waves. Forget dragging all your beach gear every day since you can just step outside onto your balcony and walk down the stairs to the beach.
There isn't any need to bring a thing! This house comes fully equipped with a kitchen full of everything you need to prepare meals and memories. There are 4 bedrooms that can accommodate up to 8 people (2 queen size beds, 1 Bunk Bed with twin size beds, 2 twins for a total of 6 beds in 4 rooms) and 3 full baths. The home has Wi-Fi, 3 televisions with cable and tons of games for kiddos! Only one dog under 50lbs is permitted on the property. Please do not inquire if you have multiple dogs. We only allow for one dog.
Surf City was recently named one of the top ten best small town beaches and is perfect for those looking for less of a commercial feel and more of the perfect family vacation to remember.
Linens are NOT included in your stay, but you can bring your own or contact Sweet Dreams Linen Service on the island!
When you stay here, you'll feel the warmth our family put into making this a place for other families to enjoy and make memories! We can't wait to have you at Serenity by the Sea!

About the host
Hosted by Catherine Fitzgerald
Our family loves the beach and love being together!
Why they chose this property
Our family LOVES the beach so we were thrilled when we bought our first property in Surf City. When our neighbors went to sell this property, adjacent to ours, we knew it would be the perfect place for large family gatherings so we bought it! We love that we can now offer TWO sides of this amazing place to accommodate up to 20 people!
What makes this property unique
We own Side B too Vrbo#1114068 so you can rent both sides for your family!
