About the host
Hosted by Reggie Portello
During the COVID-19 pandemic, we decided to take an exciting leap and purchased the Blue Seahorse, sight unseen, in a neighborhood we’ve known for over 20 years. While we’re not retired yet, we've stepped away from the grind of working crazy hours to impress others. We wanted a regular getaway to relax and recharge, and we’re planning to make the Blue Seahorse our retirement home in the next decade or so.
Why they chose this property
We had been casually searching for the past 5 to 7 years, and everything just came together the summer of 2020. With life feeling so chaotic, we knew it was the right time! There were three or four properties in our final selection, so I sent my two nephews from New Jersey to South Carolina to choose from the top three. The Blue Seahorse stood out as the best mix of price, space, location, and upgrades. We have big plans for this property and look forward to getting input from our guests on what should be prioritized.
What makes this property unique
Here’s what we've completed so far: added a new patio with both living and dining areas, redecorated the dining room, living room, porch, and two bedrooms. The primary bedroom, called the Nautical Nest, sleeps two (or more if you're feeling adventurous), while the second bedroom, known as the Garden, accommodates 2-4 guests. You can enjoy meals in the Sunflower Dining Room and unwind in the Lighthouse Lanai. We've also upgraded to a new propane BBQ for outdoor cooking!
