Wait and Sea
A bright, easygoing beach house on the second row in North Myrtle Beach — steps from the sand, three blocks from Main Street, with room for the whole crew.
The kind of beach week you actually remember.
Wait and Sea is a second-floor coastal home built for slow mornings on the porch and long afternoons in the surf. The name is a small joke and a real invitation — put the calendar down, wait, and sea what the tide brings in.
You are one row back from the ocean and three short blocks from Main Street, so the sand, the shag clubs, the arcades and the seafood are all an easy walk. Inside, an open kitchen and living room in soft seafoam and white keep ten people comfortable without anyone tripping over each other.

Second row, first choice
Cross one quiet street and your toes are in the Atlantic. Close enough to hear the waves, set back enough to sleep in.
Three blocks to Main Street
Walk to the shag clubs, the OD Pavilion, ice cream and pancakes. Leave the car parked all week if you like.
Room for ten
Three bedrooms, two baths and two levels of covered porch. Bring the family, the in-laws, or the whole friend group.
Wide, gentle beach. Warm Carolina water.
The North Myrtle strand is roomy and family-easy — lifeguarded in summer, framed by dunes and sea oats, with the pier and the pavilion a short stroll away.
An open house that keeps everyone together.
The kitchen, dining and living room flow into one bright, breezy space. Cook a shrimp boil at the granite island, pull up the breakfast-bar stools, then drift out to the porch for the evening. Coastal art, plantation shutters and a big ceiling fan keep it cool and calm.
Tour the houseMain Street is three blocks that way.
You are in the Ocean Drive section of North Myrtle Beach — the birthplace of the Carolina Shag and one of the friendliest little main streets on the East Coast.
Barefoot Landing, four championship golf courses, Cherry Grove Pier and a dozen good seafood joints are all a few minutes away. Or don't go anywhere at all.
