My family (husband and kids ages 5, 7, & 12) and I stayed in this condo for a week. Check in process was very easy, the condo was super clean, and it had everything that we needed. Location was fantastic! It was only about a 4-5 minute walk to the beach as well as super close to grocery stores, restaurants, shops, etc. Highly recommend this condo, we are already planning our next visit!

Lovely property and close to the beach. Condo was a good space for catering on rainy days. Look forward to coming again in the summer. Great hosts and quick communication as well. Thanks for a comfortable stay.

We had a fantastic visit. The condo is in a great location, an easy walk to the beach in one direction and to two supermarkets and several restaurants in the other. It’s so pretty inside - everything is beach themed, and the hosts thought of everything that one may need while there. The balconies were perfect for coffee while watching the sunrise, or for a simple lunch. We had a couple of questions for the host, and they responded within a matter of minutes. We will certainly stay here again if we return to the area.

This new townhome was absolutely beautiful and spotlessly clean. Josh and Cara have thought of everything! We have always stayed oceanfront or oceanview, but this unit was no problem, as it was an easy walk to the beach access. The location is also perfect for biking, putt-putt, or a quick trip to the store. This rental is sure to please.

We enjoyed our trip to EI. The owners were great to work with and provided everything we needed. They also provided extra linens, towels and dish towels. It was chilly and the extra blankets came in handy. The beds were very comfy! The reason we picked this condo was the 2 king beds. Great accommodations but be ready for the steps! Will stay again!

Everything was new and clean and as described/shown online. Condo decorated perfectly for the beach. The kids (teens) enjoyed the convenience of the pool and first level shops. The ice vending machine is very convenient as well. Owners very responsive to all my inquiries. As always, an enjoyable stay at Emerald Isle.

This condo is lovely. It is new and clean. Be prepared for lots of stairs though! We loved the location in proximity to the beach! The beach had a nice access and bathrooms/showers. It was so nice to have a beach cart and chairs to use. Josh and Cara were always a text away for any questions. The door locks were a bit tricky but we quickly learned how to make them work. They went above and beyond to make sure our stay was amazing! The pool was right outside which made it nice to take a quick dip. It was nice to having parking readily available too. These condos are definitely in a great location to everything. Stores are close by. The pizza shop below was great. We were a bit disappointed in the area restaurants but you have plenty of options off island that were great! Be sure to check out the local ice cream shops that were amazing! Overall we had a great stay! Highly recommend!

This house is beautiful! It is exactly as described. We loved the convenience of the pool as well as the adorable shops below. On Friday night there was a man singing with his guitar right below the front deck off of the kitchen. Adult slushies, pizza, coffee and candy shops were daily stops for us. The proximity to the beach was ideal. The public beach entrance offered clean bathrooms, vending machines and outdoor showers to rinse off. It was helpful that the house offers a beach chair and some beach toys as well as bed linens and bath towels. This saved a ton of room in our car. The bedroom with the game system was adorable and needed for the rainy nights. Our only complaint would be that the water pressure was very low and so dishes and showers took a while. Communication with the owners was easy and fast. Emerald Isle is beautiful but small. We rented a gas-run golf cart and had a ton of fun just driving around looking at the different houses. Restaurant options were limited and unfortunately all we did try were quite disappointing. Overall, the house is perfect; modern, clean and convenient. Highly recommend for a laid back vacation.
