Beach house vacation rentals in Emerald Isle

Denise is a very thoughtful host and made sure we had a wonderful stay (including our dogs). The house was everything we expected it to be from the pictures. We had everything we needed to feel like we were home. Its location right in front of the ocean was awesome. The many porches (one off each bedroom and 2 facing the ocean) were very comfortable, relaxing and enjoyable. Thank you, Denise for sharing your beautiful home!

Host was very responsive and accommodating. Comfortable and tidy home - Main entrance is on bottom floor w/all the bedrooms and kitchen and living room are upstairs. Two bedrooms and living room have access straight to the beach - the beach & ocean is literally just steps away - amazing !! Quiet community w/numerous restaurants and ice cream shops just minutes away.

My family and I went down for spring break. The home was right on the beach and had a very convenient walking path to the beach. Upon arrival, the house was clean and clutter-free. We didn't need anything. The host was highly responsive and accommodating when I reached out with questions. Book this place! It is a very deal and worth the peace it brings when you're sitting on the porch drinking your morning coffee!

This place had the most gorgeous views! Everything was exactly how the host said it would be. Highly recommend for a family getaway!

Sea Stilts is a very nice oceanfront, single level, 3-Bedroom beach house in a quiet neighborhood. I think of it as a bungalow. Walk off the back porch down the steps and you are on the beach. We have stayed there twice now, in mid April and now early May. There were not a lot of people on the beach. That may change some during the summer months, but even if all the adjacent houses were fully occupied I don’t think the beach would be crowded. The back porch has 6 composite “LL Bean” type high chairs with cup holders so you can sit out there and enjoy the unobstructed ocean view. When we arrived (easy entry via digital combination lock), the place was clean and neat. We never ran out of hot water (there were 2 of us), and there is a nice stacking washer/dryer so you can do your laundry. We would definitely stay there again!

We were pleased with our stay. The beds were very comfortable and we felt cared for in the accommodations. The view is perfect even in the rain!

What can I say about this visit?! We had to cut our visit short because of Tropical Storm Debby but Alex was so responsive and helpful we could not ask for a better host. This is our second year and love the area. House has everything for great beach days including bikes! You do not need to bring anything for the beach. The house is homey and stocked with kitchen items and plenty of towels and linens. We will be back.

The location of this home is perfect! Direct access to the beach with no obstruction of beach views. Host had excellent communication with us and we would definitely stay in this home in the future.

My family and I had the pleasure of staying at Erin’s Home for Labor Day weekend. We were there to celebrate my birthday as well as time as a family. The home was well prepared for our stay and the necessities needed were all available. It’s such a beautiful home and having access to a pool on the premises was an added plus. The homeowners also provided us a list with information to any questions we may have needed answered which was a nice touch. I recommend anyone interested in renting a home to spend with family or friends, to consider a stay here. You won’t be disappointed! Thank you again to Erin for making us feel welcome at your home. 💛

We stayed at this property for four days in October and had a greqt experience. The property was beautifully decorated and had all the ammenities that were listed. The property was well manicured outside and the swimming pool and firpit were awesome. Upon arrival we found the property in a very clean and tidy and in working condition. The beds were comfortable and the water pressure in the sinks and showers was good. Maybe it was because we were there in the off season, but there were no crowds to speak of and we felt like we had a lot of privacy at the property. Overall, this was a very good experience.

The home beautiful and clean. Well equipped with what we needed to get out stay stared. The kids feel in love with the pool, I enjoyed the peace and quiet. Would definitely rent it again.

Exceeded our expectations! This home was indeed a "home away from home", that provided everything needed for our stay. The host thought of everything. The beautiful home was supplied with all essentials for a wonderful getaway. The pool and hot tub was an added bonus. The neighbors were so friendly and personable. Having the beach within walking distance was the cherry on top. I appreciate Jessica being available when needed. We will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was spacious, the area was serene. We loved being able to hang by the pool and walk to the beach easily. We had everything we needed and the hosts were lovely. They sent all the info we needed prior to so if we needed something we were able to refer back to it. The beach itself is beautiful, food was great at sharkys! We definitely enjoyed the house and area and will be back 😊

We had an absolutely incredible stay at Bryan’s beach house! The home was beautifully maintained and exceptionally well-stocked with everything we could possibly need—from kitchen essentials to beach gear. The heated pool was a total highlight and made our stay even more relaxing and fun. Bryan was also incredibly flexible and accommodating, which made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Hands down, one of our best trips ever. We can’t wait to come back!

Amazing stay we came for my son birthday and had an amazing time at the beach and a beautiful home right near the beach, only downside the pool was closed but other than that everything was perfect.

We really enjoyed our stay hosted by Michelle at Carolina Beach. Everything was so nice and clean at the house and the location wonderful. Michelle checked with me frequently to ensure all was well and that we had everything that we needed to enjoy our stay. We hope to return in the future. Thanks again to our wonderful host!

Jeni was a lovely host, and the house was in a perfect location

Don’t even think twice, just book it. It’s absolutely worth it and will exceed your expectations. Extremely beautiful house, location and property. Will Definitely try to snag this place again next year!!

Preston was an excellent host. We’ve stayed in many Airbnb’s and it was easy to tell Preston goes above and beyond to ensure his guests have an excellent stay. The house was very clean, beds were comfortable and linens perfectly clean! We loved having use of the provided beach wagon and chairs! Would definitely recommend Preston as a host anytime!

Our stay was absolutely wonderful! Our toddler loved the house, it allowed plenty of space for the late night zooming to be had. It was a very short walk to the beach and super close to great restaurants! Sharon was super responsive and helpful with our questions! We loved it!

We really enjoyed our stay here. Sunset Beach was beautiful and not overdeveloped. The house was very comfortable and nicely decorated and so close to the beach. Having access to the area in the garage was great for our coolers and fishing rods etc. We loved the ice maker too. One thing that I did not realize is one of the beds (the king sized one) is in a room without a door so if you are a light sleeper that could be an issue. All of the bedding was super soft and we found the beds comfortable. This is a great spot for a large group!

If you like a beach setting, if you like the lure of the ICW and marsh as i do, then you will love Bob and Donna's listing in Oak Island. This is my new favorite place. Perfect home away from home for my family of 5. Home and amenities are perfect. Wonderful Carolina room and back deck with great views . Easy 10 minute walk to the beach.

This home is incredible! We enjoyed this trip more than any other we have had recently!! Adorable home, well decorated, and we had everything we might need! The best part was the ability to use the beach equipment, kayaks, and bicycles from the home. The walk to the beach is perfect! Chris was very helpful, responsive, and always working to be sure our stay was the best. He went above and beyond for us, and we felt like more than just another renter. My family loved this home and hope to return again to this home soon!!

Absolutely gorgeous home with amazing views, had a wonderful time and truly this was one of our favorite homes! Host was awesome too!
