Plus, it's a short walk to the beach and less than 2 miles from the Ocean Crest Pier, where you'll find oceanfront eateries and fantastic fishing.

Appreciate your morning coffee or the famed sunsets from one of the two oceanside balconies with your furry family members! The lower balcony features a bench swing and multiple chairs; it even has a gate to keep the doggies from going to the beach without you. The upper balcony offers spectacular ocean vistas and has a dining table ideal for playing games or eating together! Heading to the ground level, you'll find the roomy private pool with wide steps and various multi-level spots for sitting and calming partially underwater. There's ample seating in this fenced-in area with two tables and multiple lounger chairs to relax in the sun or watch the stars together at nighttime. And when it's time for some beach waves, all you need are your leashes! Beach chairs and a wagon are supplied to make the fast walk to the shore a breeze.

Inside, you'll be greeted into the calming yet fashonable living space with coastal vibes and comfortable couches to kick your feet up after a long day of fun in the sun! Turn on the tropical-weave ceiling fan for an interior breeze, and watch your favorite shows or movies on the flatscreen TV. The galley-style kitchen features granite countertops, a enormous double sink, stainless steel appliances, and an abundance of opulent cabinetry. Have a master griller in your group? There's even a gas grille on the back balcony to prepare your newly caught seafood and favorite recipes! When it's time to gather around for meals, you'll find a refined dining table with seating for up to 8 and a bar top area that seats up to 3. If you prefer dining outside, there are many options — including the bistro dining set on the back balcony, where you can overlook the marsh and pool.

The downstairs primary bedroom suite is enormous! It features a king-size bed, a flatscreen TV, and an ensuite bathroom with dual vanity, ample storage space, and a tub/shower combination. You'll also find an attached sunroom with a twin daybed with a twin trundle that can be closed off with a sliding door. The upstairs primary suite is just as broad and has a matching setup — king-size bed, ensuite with tub/shower combination, and additional sunroom with a twin daybed with a twin trundle. The third bedroom is located on the top floor and is great for the younger travelers in your group with themed comforters and 2 sets of bunk beds (one is a twin over twin, and the other is a double over double). It also has an ensuite bathroom featuring an extended vanity and a walk-in corner shower.

There's no way for us to list all of the amenities you'll find at Sun and Waves, like the half bath and laundry room combination on the main floor!
