Amazing ocean view, 2 pools, easy beach access

Great condo in an excellent location. It's on the first floor, but you do need to take stairs or elevator to get to it. Loved having easy access to the private beach and the two pools. Both pools were nice and never crowded. King-sized bed was very comfortable, but it takes up a lot of space in the bedroom. Luckily the living area has lots of space. Balcony has an assortment of chairs and a couple small tables, rather than the two lounge chairs in the photo. Would definitely stay here again.

It was our first beach trip as a family of 5! Three boys 8, 6 and 2! The accommodations were a perfect location and a great place to stay for the whole family. What a great beach access that was quiet and pretty private! We would love to come back in the future!

I loved this little place. It looked just like the photos, the community is so nice and very quiet. Had an easy beach access and pool access. I would definitely recommend staying here and I wouldn’t mind to stay here again!

I loved everything about the place!! Has everthing you need. Great location, nice pool and beach. Living room wonderful made you feel like you are on vacation. Little things were special, Alluminum foil in kitchen who does that!! We will be back

We came down for 2 nights. The check in process was seamless. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the building had an elevator which was great for luggage. The view was great and the balcony and living room were both a lot bigger than the pictures made it seem. Another great surprise. Close to shopping and dining and a short walk through the complex to the beach. Would stay again

We LOVE Emerald Isle. My husband and I actually got engaged on the beach here. We normally stay at The Islander, but with our 2 under 2 we decided to venture out from the norm so we could enjoy some time alone in the evenings. This little spot did not disappoint. If you are looking for a place to stay that is clean, has a pool and easy beach access, this is the place to book! We will definitely be back.

Quiet location….There were no luggage carts available.

The condo was decorated so cute. We loved the location to restaurants and things to do. The gated community was an added bonus. The property owner responded quickly to all questions. I would definitely recommend this rental.

easy access to the beach and was quiet and relaxing

Great location right on the beach and with a nice pool on property. The condo is very nicely decorated with a well stocked kitchen. The only thing I would change or hope would have been a little better is the patio furnishings are simple chairs so not very comfortable at all. It would be nice to be able to comfortably lounge in that space.

The unit was OK. The view was great, decent location but if you are hauling something on wheels down to the beach you will want to use the ramp and stairs to the left side of the building instead of the closer stairs to the right. Makes the walk longer but easy to manage bc fewer stairs. No issues using the elevator to get to the unit. The shower curtain needed to be replaced. It was yellow and disgusting. That’s my biggest complaint!! The water pressure in the shower was on point though they may want to consider replacing the shower head, it works but looks kind of rough. The firm mattress was amazing. The TV in the living room had a poor picture quality and seems damaged. Other than that, it was a great unit. Thanks!

We loved our stay here! It was clean, and had all the comforts of home for a relaxing get away! So close to grocery shopping and restaurants! The best thing is that from the patio/balcony you can hear the ocean and there is a beautiful view from the balcony. We will be back!

The condo had not been cleaned when we arrived after 4 pm; had to call the rental company to get the cleaning company. The property needs a lot of work. There is no lock on the sliding door; the owner provided a wooden rod to place in the slider. The bathroom door from the hallway creaks you you open it and the other bathroom door sticks; you have to slam it to close it. The storm door whistled like a tea kettle when the wind blew. There was absolutely no place to store groceries. All the kitchen cabinets were jam packed. The view was beautiful but the furniture was not as pictured online. There were no lounge chairs, only plastic furniture. Very disappointing.

Quiet location….There were no luggage carts available.

Great location steps from the beach, was quiet area. Didn't know we needed gate pass, no email on obtaining that so getting in was frustrating. No oven mits, hair dryer, trivet, scissors or screen for slider door. Appliances run loud. Best just for 2 people

The deck was disappointing, not clean, it was all wet when we arrived, 1 rusty small table and a dirty plastic table provided. Not conducive to enjoying a snack and beverage on the deck while enjoying the view…Strong smell of pot one night from a neighbor. The unit itself was fine for the two of us but was surprised at no liquid dish soap available and only 1 roll of tp provided, sheets were rather scratchy, towels were wonderful, very soft. I feel like for the price; we were underwhelmed.

The condo that I stayed in was very nice, clean, and well decorated. It was also very homey and comfortable. The view of the ocean was amazing and so peaceful.

This was a great little condo! Super convenient location,clean and fun!

I have several comments about our stay. First off, I would update a LOT of things in the apartment. The furniture being on the top of the list. It needs replacing. I didn't even want to sit on the couch. It didn't look clean and it was uncomfortable. We put a sheet down to sit on it. The other larger chair was equally as uncomfortable. Two of the 4 PLASTIC chairs were broken. A little nervous to sit on those. There was one bar chair that was painted! Not even a good job at painting. It looked like a 3 year old painted it. One coat, and didn't even hide the wood they were trying to hide. Same with the table. The bed was okay. We weren't able to control the thermostat without "loggin in". ??? Most nights were spent uncomfortably warm. Little touches, like using a real hand soap in the bathroom rather than something that felt like water and didn't lather, maybe a little bottle of dishwashing detergent to use for the 3 or 4 dishes that we used. The price per night was reasonable. The "cleaning cost" was absolutely ridiculous. It would take two people paying them $25/hr 2 hours to clean that tiny space. We have friends that use VRBO and love it, that's why we gave this a try. After talking with them, we realize that not all VRBO's are the same. I just really expected a little more from a VRBO for that reason. Lesson learned

My husband and I had a short getaway here with our small children (ages 2 & 5). We arrived in town early with a little one who didn't nap on the drive as planned. The owner was very kind to allow us to check in a bit earlier than scheduled. My children were delighted (as were we) when we walked in to see the view from the living area overlooking the courtyard with the ocean in the background. This little place worked out great for the four of us. The ocean is a short, easy walk and we enjoyed meeting some of our "neighbors". The only thing that would keep us from renting here again is the pull out couch bed. It was incredibly uncomfortable for my husband and I to sleep on. We have stayed in single room places in the past and have slept on couch beds but this one sagged in the middle to a point that I would almost consider it non-functional. We joked about it and tried everything we could think of to make it more bearable. We were only there for three nights but it was difficult and impacted our trip for neither of us to get decent rest during those three nights. I imagine we would have been zombies if we'd stayed there longer due to the poor quality of sleep. I did lay on the bed in the bedroom while reading to my children and that bed seemed comfortable. Overall, it's a nice place to stay and if you don't have to use the couch bed, I'd highly recommend it!

We loved the balocony. I brought my mini griddle and had breakfast out there and we slept on the sofa bed with the door open to hear the ocean. It was a lovely condo with a SHORT walk to the ocean.

This property is located only a short walk from the beach. The ocean views are beautiful and you can hear the ocean from the balcony. The property is very well kept and beautifully decorated. Will definitely stay here again.

The property was exactly as listed! I was actually shocked how big the space was. Everything was stocked and ready for my family. Several residents knew the owner (Jamie) and were super friendly and helpful!

We enjoyed our stay. We had a few issues and the management handled them promptly and was very responsive. Check-in and check-out were a breeze. The view was amazing the walk to the beach was easy. We would stay again!

This was a well appointed and well laid out condo walking distance to the beach. Bedroom is separated by a closed bathroom and the living room is on the opposite side providing an opportunity to be up while someone else sleeps. Bed was very comfortable and the owner/manager was very reachable. They do not provide beach things so you’ll need to bring those. The only recommendation I’d have for the owner is to have Kleenex in the bathroom and maybe a hair dryer. But otherwise, this is where we will stay when we come back!

We had a home for 20 years on EI which we sold due to parents illness. We loved our stay this week it was like coming home. The condo was wonderful with a beautiful beach view. We got to visit family and friends. We will stay there again. We made wonderful memories. Thank you so much for your kindness

Enjoyed everything about the stay! Beautiful property, very convenient to everything!! Great host! Sidenote: shower pressure was fantastic!! Will definitely book again.

Husband and I took a quick vacation to North Carolina for an extended weekend. Chose this property because the location, price and look of the condo…. We were not disappointed when we got there. Great view of the ocean from our balcony and a minutes walk to the beach, rented bikes for two days and explored the Isle, sampled the local cuisine. It was all excellent and we were sad to leave so soon. I would recommend this property to anyone visiting the area.

Great location to enjoy the beach and local restaurants on Emerald Isle. The unit was comfortable for the two of us and was safe and quiet even though in a large complex. We would definitely consider returning to stay again.

My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed a long weekend at Emerald Isle. This condo was nicely decorated and had wonderful views of the ocean. The location was minutes from restaurants, shopping and the pier. We would definitely recommend staying in this property.

Perfect property for a weekend getaway at the beach. Short walk to the beach and close to multiple restaurants and shops. Will definitely stay again.
