The Beach Hive: Ocean view condo in the heart of Emerald Isle

The gate code we were provided didn’t work and I was provided the wrong door code as well. The kitchen light didn’t work and I reported it but no one ever came to fix it. I had to ask for a new shower curtain liner for the guest bathroom because it was moldy and gross. There was mold along the grout and the master shower also had mold. It definitely needs a deep clean to clean under and behind furniture. Other than that, the condo was nice, great view of the ocean. The kitchen was stocked with lots of dishes and appliances. Master bed was comfy. Lots of books and games. It was off season so hardly anybody on the beach or pool. Sunset was gorgeous!! and the bluest water we’ve ever seen on the Atlantic coast.

There are not enough words to express our delightful experiences at this amazing home away from home. The location in proximity to the beach as well of all of the amenities was beyond expectations. In addition, the view of the ocean from the balcony provided an aurora of serenity. We will definitely cannot wait to return.

Wonderful and relaxing vacation! The property was perfect for our getaway! Beautiful views of the ocean in a comfortable, secure, family friendly setting. Also, the hosts responded quickly with any questions we had. Highly recommend to anyone looking to experience Emerald Isle!

Fantastic stay with stunning view of the ocean. Property was clean and Andrew (host) was very responsive and accommodating. Perfect hangout at EI… We will definitely be back!

Wonderful property great location!

Our stay was mid-week. Everything was wonderful. Very clean, well equipped, convenient location and awesome view of the ocean. We would recommend this VRBO.

Great!

My husband and I spent several days over NYE at the condo; excellent location; well appointed.

The place was fantastic, clean, updated, very comfy bed and pillows …and the view- the view is amazing! Will def stay here again !

The unit is exactly as described, and a great location in Emerald Isle--a few steps away from an uncrowded beach, and within walking distance to several restaurants and grocery stores. The weather wasn't ideal for beach weather during our stay, but the unit was a wonderful second-choice option, and worked out very nicely. Thanks for an enjoyable stay!

great property! awesome stay! great location! interior is beautiful.

Our family of 3 (2 adults and a 6-year-old) really enjoyed our stay. Unbelievable view of the ocean. I felt like I could reach out and touch it. Plenty of comfortable balcony furniture perfect for enjoying the view. It was excellent the building had an elevator and it was also pretty great that the ground floor storage was available for ocean & pool items. It was also pretty nice there were some items in the storage shed for use. We thought the beds were comfortable and that everything we needed was available during our stay. I was impressed with the availability of games and books. The host was responsive when I had a question or 2. As far as the beach, it was great. I never felt like we were crowded. A bit more narrow than the Atlantic Beach end but still plenty of sand. People were friendly For any future VRBO'ers - to find the ground floor storage, you have to go through the tunnel like areas by the elevator. Start at the area near the elevator to the far left (facing the building from the parking lot). There is a tunnel at the far left of the building; walk over the knee-high wall and go straight through the tunnel to the back of the building (you will be able to see the pool). Then make a 180 turn to your right and walk in that tunnel. Storage unit is the first closet on the right. It took us a while to figure out that you had to walk all the way around the building and the storage areas were also facing the back of the building on the pool side as well.

This was our first visit to Emerald Isle but definitely won't be our last. We had a little trouble getting in touch with rental office but after that everything was smooth sailing. Condo was perfect, just as advertised. Clean and updated! We really enjoyed our stay there and won't be the last time we're there to relax.

Enjoyed morning coffee with sunrise and ocean view! Would stay here again. Host very responsive before and during stay.
