This vacation home has everything! Steps from the ocean, pool and hot tub. The house was spotless, the master bedroom was incredible, huge with a newly updated en suite bathroom that has incredible views of the beach. The house has a big open floor plan, so our extended family of 14 never felt crowded. Jenny the host was available for any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again.

Very clean, updated, well equipped kitchen. Loved the kids bedroom for our 5 gkids. Had full bath with 2 bunk beds. Full size beds (2 kids ea) on ground and 2 twin beds above. We rented for a full week so we had the daily tent service which we all loved. It could shade 5-6 people at a time.

Keys on the Conch Shell - June 2025

What a beautiful home. Jenny was super responsive with any questions or things we were requesting her help with. The renovations done were magnificent. Having a tent setup on the beach and then all of the beach chairs & toys available made traveling so much simpler. Great access to the ocean & a wonderful pool/hot tub were the perfect icing on the cake. Highly recommended.

Awesome week at the beach!

The house was great! The home was just remodeled and had everything our family needed. The property was very clean. The owner even checked in on us. The property was beach front with a beautiful view. The pool and hot tub was an added bonus. This was our first time staying at Holden Beach and this place has won our hearts. Will be coming back again. Very nice to not have to fight for a parking spot, waiting for an elevator or finding a spot on the beach. They had our tent put up on the beach every morning by 6 and they took it down after 6 in the evening. If you have little ones, this is the beach for you. All beach chairs, beach toys, and pool tools were provided.

Perfect house for our family!

We really enjoyed our stay at this house. It was in a fantastic location and close to the beach. We loved having the option of the pool or beach. The house was really well appointed. I loved the decor and the small little touches like having extra throw blankets and tall chairs so you can see over the banister when sitting on the porch. We opted to heat the pool and it malfunctioned a couple of times, but the owner was super responsive and sent people out quickly to get it fixed. The only thing the house didn’t have was cookie sheets and we bought some and left them there for the next guest. I wondered if the chairs for the beach would be well worn, but they seemed brand new. The tent set up each day was a nice touch. Both of the king beds were a little firm, but still passable. I do like a really cushy bed, so that could be a me problem. The folks sleeping in other beds said they were comfortable. I would still book again.

About the host

Hosted by Jenny Stoner

Host profile image
We live in a suburb of Charlotte, NC with our son Nathan. Mark is a software engineer at Unisys Corporation and Jenny is a Coach to Mortgage Professionals. We have been visiting Holden Beach for several years with friends and have fallen in love with this quaint little island. We have always wanted a beach house of our own and in 2015, that dream became a reality when we purchased Keys in the Conch Shell. We spent 5 months renovating and redecorating the home, giving it our personal touch. 2 years later, we purchased Sunshine in My Soul, our 2nd property in Holden Beach. We love the slow pace of Holden Beach and enjoy spending our time entertaining friends on the deck overlooking the ocean or taking a nap in the hammocks while enjoying the ocean breeze. We'd love to share our home away from home with you. We hope you love it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

We knew we wanted a home that was large enough to have several families join us and we wanted to be oceanfront, so when we found Keys in the Conch Shell, we fell in love. The home is laid out really well for a large crowd and either multi-family or multi-generational vacations. Our keyless touch pad locks means you can lock your items up but not have to worry about taking a key with you!

What makes this property unique

When you first enter Keys in the Conch Shell you will be blown away by the expansive views of the ocean! The beach is just steps away from the large deck which boasts an 8 ft custom picnic table and 6 custom high Adirondack chairs. The beach is close enough to watch your kids play from the deck. No more packing up your things for a day at the beach! Just take your chair to the sand; the house and anything you need are just steps away.
