OCEANFRONT with Amazing Views

Great view and location.

Wonderful Ocean views from the high balcony, the stars at night felt like they were at eye level. We enjoyed our stay!

This is a lovely duplex with a great location. The hosts are great and very responsive. We had wi-fi connectivity problems and they worked with us to fix. The provided linens are of a better quality than some we have experienced at rental properties. Overall a lovely location and a great week in Emerald Isle. Only negatives are a bit of wear and tear on the property - an area rug with stains, furniture that was not cleaned well and some elderly plumbing, older mattresses and fixtures.

Property was clean and had a tremendous view. The only problem we had was WiFi and we were there 2.5 days until the situation was fixed. Not a huge deal but something we spent some time on.

We have not yet had the pleasure to stay due to a family emergency that occurred the evening prior to our arrival date. The communication we had with our host regarding how sad we were to be unable to proceed with our stay was great. Their primary concern was well wishes to our emergency and helping us to reschedule our stay to next summer! Ed and Autumn, thank you so much, we look forward to staying next year!

Well stocked and well maintained house with beautiful views, direct beach access, and helpful owners. It has been a great fit for your family for several years now.

Loved everything about this beach home. We’ve been coming to EI for years and this is by far the best home we’ve stayed in. The king bed in the master is very comfortable, plenty of room in the house to spread out, lots of games and books for the rainy days. The kitchen had everything we needed. Outside, there are multiple spots to shower and rinse sand off. The owner was easily accessible and contacted us to touch base and see how the stay was going. I can’t think of one negative, except the week is over and we have to go. Can’t wait to come back!

The house was very clean and very comfortable. But the deck was worth its weight in gold! 4th of July fireworks were outstanding looking down at the pier

We really enjoyed staying at this house on Emerald Isle. Sits up nice and high so you have a great view of the ocean and the stars at night. House was clean and comfortable, owners were easy to reach if needed and great to work with. Would recommend and stay there again for sure. Only recommendation we would make is have more beach chairs available, just be prepared to bring your own or buy some cheap ones. I'm sure they've had some in the past and guests took them or broke them. That's probably the only feedback we would give. Wonderful beach house.

We had a wonderful week staying in this beautiful oceanfront house with amazing views of the ocean. There was plenty of space for our family and the house was tidy and clean upon our arrival. We would definitely recommend staying here!

We had a great time. Location is excellent! Cooked and shopped. So fun. Maybe should put some toppers on beds to make more comfortable but other than that it was wonderful! Had everything we needed.

We had a great stay! House was spacious and well stocked. Awesome view and access to the beach. Great walking on the beach. Saw loads of pelicans and dolphins. ? Fun place to stay for Thanksgiving week.

This duplex is very nice and the furniture is more comfortable than other rental properties at which we’ve stayed. The unit is very clean, and spacious, and the kitchen has most equipment you need if you decide to cook - which we did. The dishes are nice - and not plastic! or corelle and there are plenty of them. There are some very pretty decorative touches throughout the house, which added to our enjoyment. The road behind the duplex is great for walking if the tide is in full. All in all, we had an excellent week - the weather even cooperated. The only negatives I would mention are that some of the fixtures are old and showing wear. The showers are quite old, and for older people a little less safe than we would like, and a couple of the kitchen cabinets have peeling laminate. It would be helpful if the keysafe on the door was replaced - since it is hard to open and appears to be pretty old. Oh and the driveway is quite steep - it’s a workout climbing up the driveway if you have walked on Ocean Rd behind the house.

It was so hard to leave this great house on this beautiful beach! We all had a great week and felt so lucky to be there. Hosts were responsive. Wonderful overall

This is my first negative review, but we feel it needed to be done so future renters do not face the same situation we did. When we arrived, the house was only partially cleaned. The toilets were dirty, there was dirty laundry and dishes, and there was zero toilet paper in the house. When we informed the owners, they said this had happened the past four times and they didn't bother remedying it. During our stay, a large ceiling panel fell down into the bunk room where the children stay. It luckily didn't hurt anyone, but the owners got mad at us for it because we called them to see if someone could have been working up there to cause it. Also, while we were there, ants infested the pantry. We were told, Welcome to North Carolina. That's what happens when it rains. We live in NC and do not experience this at home, nor did we appreciate that response. Finally, one afternoon we smelled a burning plastic scent and saw smoke coming out of one of the air conditioning vents. We called the owner and his response was, What did you do?? You have 24 hours to vacate the premises. We then called the fire department and after their inspection of the house and smell they recommended we not stay there until a licensed electrician verified that it was safe. Given this circumstance, we quickly cleaned up the house and gathered our belongings and left. When we asked the owner to reimburse those final two nights, he refused and continued to blame us and make up stories.

The house works well for my family - me+spouse, our 4 adult kids (3 with spoiuses)

Another amazing week on Emerald Isle with family and friends. The view from the deck is great, we spend every morning and evening there. Communication with host was great and we are already looking forward to our next trip.

It was a great week. I will say a few things need to be updated but we made the best of our stay and the weather was perfection. The view cannot be beat, & the owners were attentive to any issue during our stay.

We loved our stay. The owners were responsive to all of our questions and quick to solve any issue we had. We had the best access to the beach and there was no overcrowding. It was great to enjoy the beach/ocean as a family and not have to always find a spot like you may have to do in the more public access areas. If you are into finding shells the beach will give you more than you can handle. We also loved being in the middle of the peninsula so we had easy access to all the surrounding things we wanted to see. The house was perfect for all of us and we really enjoyed our stay!
