Family-Friendly Resort on Topsail Island
It was what we needed. we traveled there for a wedding it was cozy and convenient.we were able to spend a few hours on the beach and the access point to the beach was really convenient.

New! Oceanfront 2bd/2ba - Penthouse View!
We enjoyed our stay here! The beach supplies were amazing, and we had everything we needed for traveling with our toddler. One thing to note is you do have to put the sheets on the beds yourself. That wasn’t clear in the listing, and we waited until we were exhausted to do it later that night which wasn’t very fun. But very minor action in what was a wonderful family vacation with great views!

Honeymoon Perfect
The setting is stunning--up on a bluff overlooking the Neuse River, with a great view of sunsets and a dock for fishing, chillin' or launching her kayaks. The cottage is quirky and authentic and a fun place to spend a few days. It's cozy in a comforting way and has everything you need. If you're looking for something a little remote, with a great, peaceful view, to get away and be alone for a father-son/mother-daughter break, or to hunker down with friends or your significant other, this is it.

Jolly Sixpence
We (myself and 7 family members) stayed at Matthew’s for a wedding. The place slept the 8 of us comfortably and was gorgeous. We had a fantastic time and will be in contact again in the future!

JUNE SALE! Luxury 3Bedroom Pool, Steps from Beach
My family had a nice time. We loved having food within walking distance. The pool and pool area was clean and inviting.

Cozy 1st floor condo w/pool, 2 blocks from beach
Carol’s place was just as described and the location was perfect. We had a little confusion with getting in but she was very apologetic and quick to respond. We had a great time and the area was very peaceful. Great birthday trip.

Linger Longer-Pet Friendly/Oceanside Home
Clean, bright, comfortable place in a good location. Short walk to the beach and the pool is practically in the backyard.

Canal front condo w/ 45' boat slip
We loved staying here! The house was clean and comfortable. The view was amazing and the convenience of having the dock right off the deck was great. The view was awesome and peaceful. We will definitely be back!

Dune Castle East: Family Friendly Oceanfront Beach
Amazing oceanfront property! Walk from the living room to the deck to the beach! Good sized kitchen with lots of necessities. I think the only two ‘negatives’ would be the lack of bathrooms (which was clear in the description) and the ac not being able to cool the place down to an acceptable sleep temperature (like 69). Otherwise, this place was quiet, great location for bike riding, endless ocean views, and plenty of room for everyone!!!

Pet Friendly Beach Cottage at Emerald Isle
Great stay, can’t emphasize enough! Location - tucked away in a private, quiet street, easy 3min walk to beach access. Host Matt - very responsive and accommodating, so easy to deal with. Truly appreciated how clean and well equipped their entire home was - kitchen clean and well stocked, carried everything we needed to make our brunch/picnics. While we packed everything we needed for our toddler, we really didn’t need too, lots of games, books and outside toys! Appreciated the fenced yard, our dog had a blast. And we enjoyed our evenings downstairs - lots of space to sit down for a meal, enjoy the hammock, and play a game of corn hole :) Thank you for hosting us!

101 Beachwood Drive
Great stay for my family and two dogs. Ashley was quick and easy to text with. Ideal location. Easily walk to beach. Would stay again and hope to do so.

Stunning Water-front Home with Private Dock
This house was the perfect size and location for our family of four. The fishing is great, especially at high tide, and the best part is it’s right in the back yard. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, but you’re still close to stores and restaurants. We drove in to Emerald Isle almost daily. We recommend this place and would definitely book again!

Ocean Resort & Family Oasis Steps to the beach!
Check in procedures were well described & easy to do! Place was easy to locate with friendly staff entire stay! Room was clean & exactly as described! Couldn’t be happier with stay and definitely would visit again!

Luxury interior! Pelicans Roost #2
We enjoyed our stay! My husband and I took our 3-year old on a weekend trip to the beach, and the space was perfect for our needs. It was especially nice to have a fully equipped kitchen so we could cook while we were there. It was also very reasonably priced.

Oceanfront Home on residential beach & great view!
My husband and I spent 3 nights here, exploring local beaches and restaurants, as well as to use it as a jump off place to visit Cape Lookout lighthouse. If that interests you, plan ahead and buy ferry tickets the day before. The local beaches were nice, but not a lot of beach, especially at or close to high tide. The condo was nice, beds comfy, easy access to the beach. Used the back deck a lot to enjoy the ocean view, which is limited, but still nice.

Isle Escape - Ocean Front Beach Cottage
We loved Adina’s home. She left detailed instructions and the house was bright and clean and just what we needed. Adina was responsive throughout the week. The house is ocean front with views from the deck. We had to be careful of the sand spurs in the yard but we didn’t go to the beach for the yard! We would stay here again.

Chasin' Surf - PRIVATE BEACH ACCESS W/OCEAN VIEWS
This is such an exceptional home. It's not only beautiful but perfectly placed. While most other houses in the neighborhood are right on the street, this home is nestled back just a bit in a gorgeous thicket of trees while also being just steps from the beach. The balconies are huge and so incredibly peaceful. You can watch the ocean waves on the top floor (my favorite) or listen to the birds in the shady spots on the lower floor. The layout was perfect for us (2 parents, 3 teens and and their grandmother). The upper floor is flooded with light and incredible views and has such a happy feel to it. The furnishings are beautiful and live up to the photos but are also incredibly comfortable. I can't thank Dallas enough for his quick responsiveness and his care in wanting us to have a great stay. I also appreciate all of the beach toys and chairs which made our time there so much better. It's an absolute gem of a home with wonderful owners. Thanks for letting us share it.

Ocean Front - Tar Landing Villas
Stayed here in early April. We loved that from the main floor we were able to see the ocean through the floor to ceiling windows and watch the dolphins. Loved the open floor plan on the main floor. You could see the view from everywhere. The kitchen was well supplied with everything you could need to make light lunches or full meals. The beds were very comfortable with quality matresses. Bedrooms had plenty of dresser space. The older kids enjoyed having a large space of their own on the lower floor to hang out, play games and watch movies together while the adults were on the main floor. Even though it was early for the season there was alot to see and do in the area and the pool was already open. We loved that we were able to walk off the back deck straight to the beach along a boardwalk. It made it so easy and convenient to go back and forth when you needed a break or just wanted to go out for a short time. This will be our first choice to stay again on our next visit.

Book your getaway now! 2 BR with ocean view.
We have stayed at Andrew’s place several times now and it never disappoints! Great location, peaceful & family friendly. Andrew is a great host as well, he’s very responsive and helpful. We will most likely return again in the future. Highly recommend!

See, breath, walk the island!
The location was fantastic! I would love to go back! It was a short walk to the beautiful beach. The house had a gorgeous view of the ocean.

Best Views on Emerald Isle
Great place! Hope to return.

Near Downtown, entire 2nd Floor, 1 block to water
Loved the place. Very open and plenty of natural light without the sun beating on you. Scott was very helpful whether it was with finding a place to eat, shop or a general question about marine life. Great with my dog as well. Definitely would stay again!

Cozy cottage on the canal 2 /Emerald Isle NC
Jays place is an excellent place to stay for a family of 2 or 3. Our family is a family of 4 including one 20 month old and a 3 year old. Jay was so kind to let us use the playpen that was in the shared laundry room but it this rental wasn’t quite big enough as they take naps and need a quiet place to lay. This does not affect our review since it’s something I should have paid better attention to. With that being said, the coolest part of our trip was watching the fighter jets fly above the house every morning (alert: if you’re fearful of loud noises, beware). Not sure if they fly that often or if it was just the time of year but nonetheless it was incredible. The rental was stocked with linen, towels, paper towels, toilet paper, and the kitchen essentials. I especially appreciated the left over spices that other tenants left when they were done, and I did the same with popcorn and paper plates. The park was practically in the back yard and we walked over to it everyday. The grill was wonderful as we used it a couple times. Jays responses was always very quick and answered. If it were just me and my husband next time I would absolutely rent this place again.

"Seas the Day" Accepting 2025 reservations
Peaceful little condo building with easy beach access. Two pools on property. Close to lots of activities. Can’t beat it for kids! The spiral staircase takes some getting used to, and some of the provided toys and beach gear are pretty worn out. But nevertheless, it was a great value.
