Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Lovely “Salt Shaker” is one spicy saltbox-style beach home. Carefully positioned on quiet Wimble Shores Drive, “Salt Shaker” takes advantage of the expansive north views of the wetlands and an extra-large salt pond. The safe walk to the ocean takes about 5 minutes - trust us: the kids will dig it. The ground level has a full concrete living area with great parking and access to a large locking storage room (bikes not included), an outdoor rain head shower, and a fish station. There are a hammock and swing on the ready. A front east-facing porch is well furnished. Inside is a homage to clever and comfy beach decorating. The living area has a tall, elevated ceiling, and is well furnished with long sectional chairs, a TV with a DVD player, and a Bluetooth stereo. The well-equipped kitchen has stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, and a farm sink, plus super access to a screened porch for al-fresco meals at the dining table.

The first bedroom has two twin beds, a flatscreen TV with a DVD player, and private access to a full hallway bath with a rain shower head. The laundry room has full-size machines. Upstairs, the second bedroom has a full bed and a Romeo and Juliet south-facing sundeck. The third bedroom includes a queen bed and shares a Jack-and-Jill full bath with the second bedroom. The third bedroom also has access to an extra-large furnished north-facing sundeck with expansive views of the water and the wetlands. You just may find this deck to be your go-to morning coffee spot.

Awesome little Condo

My best friend and I took a long overdue needed trip to the beach and rented this awesone little condo. We weren't expecting quite so many stairs, but they were worth it. The condo is clean and very well taken care of. Perfect location, just a walk across the street to the beach. We really enjoyed sitting on the balcony and eating breakfast & lunch each day. Owner checked in with us on the day we arrived and the day we checked out. would definitely rent here again.

Not comfy

We picked this location because of its proximity to the beach since we have young children, but this was one of the only advantages to this property and the fact that it's a spacious house. My number one issue was the uncomfortableness and firmness of the mattresses . I explicitly messaged vacasa and told them this and it was never addressed. I am a mom of four so I'm pretty tired by the time we get to bed and I still had a very hard time sleeping and so did my husband. The pillows were also extremely uncomfortable. There were zero amenities stocked for guests which I've never experienced in any vacasa rentable. There's always basic necessities like ketchup,mayo and spices. There was absolutely nothing . The majority of the house was pretty clean, but there was mold in the shower curtains. The televisions were also hard to function which I also messaged vacasa about and it wasn't addressed. We will not be staying there again.

Beds are horrendous

The beds are so hard and are like they came out of a Motel 6 years ago. The linens are awful as well. It’s basically like you have the cheapest hotel linens you can find. I will say the balconies were fantastic and you have some amazing views. The layout of the home is nice inside and out. This home has so much potential if they didn’t have a chain property management company take care of it. The community pool that’s advertised is about 30 minutes away. We were not told anything about that.

Review

The Salt Shaker has a decent kitchen and close proximity to the beach but seriously needs some updated furniture and a cleaner vibe. The entire downstairs smelled musty from the dirty couch and there were stains on it and most of the fabric furniture. The TV and cable were also not hooked up when we arrived and we had to do it ourselves. There was also a screen door on the back porch broken, I assume from tropical storm winds but even after reporting it our first evening, nothing was done to fix it. Will not be staying here again.

Dated yet comfortable

The place showed its age but, it was comfortable without being costly. We had rain and wind yet we were comfortable inside. Compliant? Get rid of that sofa unit.

Not cleaned very well

I chose this place because of the proximity to the beach, and that was about the only plus to the house. The house is in desperate need of a deep cleaning. I didn’t feel comfortable being in the house. It was very dirty and not taken care of. The couch was very nasty and I cringed every time my kids sat on it. When we first walked in I found a coach roach in the room my kids were sleeping in. The tub did not drain so we had to stand in dirty water while showering. The floor was disgusting. I don’t think the house has been cleaned in a year besides things being wiped down. When I called beforehand to find out what the kitchen was stock with, I was given inaccurate information.

Wonderful memories!

The house was clean and comfortable and me, my husband and 22 and 18 year old sons, as well as our dogs had the best vacation ever. Everything you need for a vacation was thought of in this home and we couldn’t be happier with our choice to stay here. The photo of the owners and their own personal touches including the guest book to sign, where we could visualize other families having truly made us feel welcome and like we were at home! We will be back again!

Not fancy, but has everything you need

I loved all the outdoor spaces to read! Not fancy or super cute, but a short easy, safe walk to the beach. The hammock was damaged and they fixed it right away. Would stay again.

Nice but hot stay

Overall we had a great time staying at this house. The kitchen is fully stocked with tools, but zéro spices. There are beach toys, chairs, and umbrellas available for use. There is a charcoal grill even though the listing doesn't mention it, we ended up bringing our propane camping grill. The house is located on a private street with beach access. It's about a 5 minute walk, 10 if you have young kids. When we arrived we noticed how loud the a/c unit was and towards the end of our week at the Salt Shaker we noticed that the a/c stopped blowing cold air. Because of the layout of the house and the skylights, it got hot quick. We called the local property manager and he took note, but did not offer to fix it while we were there. We called again and asked for temporary window units and he agreed to bring them over to give us some relief for the last night. They helped bring the house down to about 80º.

Beautiful November escape

We loved our time at the Salt Shaker, in fact we ended up extending our stay due to great weather. The house is perfectly situated 2 min walk from the beach and my 5 year old loved the beach toys (I was grateful I didnt have to bring ours!), outdoor shower and the great porches for sitting and watching the day go by. The only things we didn't love about the place was that we wished there had been some of the amenities like salt and pepper (but perhaps not possible in the time of COVID!) and that the blinds would close better in the rooms as there is a lot of sun in the am. Lastly, while it was warm and we didnt need blankets, we only had one comforter and one throw blanket in the house, but loads of pillows :) Thanks for the lovely stay!

Housekeeping

We arrived at our home at 7pm. The housekeeper answered the door telling us she wasn’t finished when we were supposed to check in at 5pm. She was quite rude. My husband left voicemail with property management with our cell phone and never heard from anyone.

Shalt shaker

The property has some small issues when we arrived the hammock wasn't able to be used bc it was broken! The washer leaked every time I tried to use it, I called for service and only one attempt was made to fix it and it never got fixed the whole week! There was a family of snakes living in the ceiling of the outside shower! We did have a nice week but the property could have used some maintainence
