Seabrook Tranquility by the Sea | Hot Tub, Dog Friendly, 4BR, Sleeps 10

Professionally managed onsite by Seabrook Hospitality. By booking with Seabrook Hospitality, you have access to all resort amenities, including the pool and gym.

From the moment you step inside Tranquility by the Sea you will be taken by its charm. Located across the street from the swimming pool and big Crescent Park (so perfect for kids!), and a few blocks from the central area, Town Hall and a hop skip and a jump to the beach, there is also always plenty to do close by. But there is peace and quiet and tranquility to be had inside, where there is never outside noise. You can relax in the beautifully furnished house that is quintessential cottage chic but without the cliché. From the bead board ceilings to the gorgeous reclaimed wood floors throughout (except for the master bedroom, which is carpeted in a soothing shade of sand) to the custom light and plumbing fixtures, to the antique shell prints and charming window treatments in the main living area and artfully furnished rooms throughout, the house exudes quality without being pretentious in any way. You can escape from TV-land if you want, by closing the pocket door cabinets that house the two TV’s (a smaller one in the breakfast room and a large flat screen TV in the porch-media room off the living room), a feature that you will rarely find elsewhere at Seabrook.

The all-white painted kitchen is a dream with a large island, granite countertops and a farmhouse sink, and outfitted with everything you will need to make everything from quick and easy to gourmet meals and holiday feasts. A crockpot, large electric pancake griddle, Cuisinart, toaster oven, toaster, large roasting pan, pasta pot, and an assortment of other pots and pans, baking utensils, and serving platters/dishes are waiting for you in the cheery kitchen with all stainless steel appliances (including a gas range). There are cute plastic plates and cups for the kids and classic white dinnerware for everyone else. There is an adorable breakfast nook with lots of natural light that seats 4 -6, and the dining room seats 6-8. A sunny yellow powder room is located off the breakfast room.

There is a gas grill outside the back door for all of your barbeque dinners and a large yard/garden.

Upstairs in the house there are 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. The primary suite has a king bed and bath with a claw foot soaking tub and large pedestal sink. A second bedroom has a queen bed and shares a bath (with shower and another large pedestal sink) with the twin bedroom. All mattresses are brand-new and very comfy, and each bed has a quilt and comforter to keep everyone cozy. There is a convenient laundry room off the hall with front loading washer and dryer if you need to do any washing.

The house is stocked with plenty of games and a wide assortment of books to keep everyone busy if the weather is less than perfect. WiFi Internet access is available. There is also a DVD player (bring your own or rent in Ocean Shores 13 miles south at the IGA grocery store).

For outdoor activities there are water toys for the pool, plenty of beach pails and shovels, 2 boogie boards, a ball and 3 bats, basketball (Seabrook has a very nice court near the children’s playground!), 2 Frisbees, several balls, a kite. There is also a bocce ball set in the closet by the front door and Crescent Park across the street is the perfect venue for a fun game of bocce that everyone can enjoy. Oh, and the park has 2 fire pits, the perfect spot for an evening of s’mores using the sticks waiting for you in the house! There is also shuffle board and horseshoes in the park and always something going on.

The Carriage House is a charming little retreat, beautifully appointed. It is perfect for a couple with 1-2 children or for two couples, sleeping up to 4. It features a living area (that includes a sink and table/4 chairs) that at night can become a bedroom with a queen sleeper sofa bed. The queen bedroom has a bath with shower. A flat screen TV in the main living area closes away in its own cabinet and has a DVD player.

This house/Carriage house is furnished/appointed with the high quality tastes in mind. The name, Tranquility by the Sea, reflects the tranquil feeling you will have when staying in this Seabrook house. Get some of that feeling for yourself by staying at Tranquility by the Sea!
