About this property

Upscale Oceanfront, with Panoramic Views

Stunning ocean views. Upscale luxury in a beach house with panoramic seascape vistas. This oceanfront cottage has been floor-to-ceiling renovated with an upscale modern coastal vibe that was designed by Susie to keep all different styles of vacationers in mind.

The beach house is completely private. And we are located well away from the crowds -- often the beach is completely empty in front of the house, allowing complete enjoyment of the white sandy beaches.

Clean lines and custom furniture let the stunning 180-degree ocean views do all the talking. Two sets of sliding double doors open up to a large sunbathing deck with plenty of furniture to enjoy the ocean breeze (and tan without the sand), while sipping your favorite beverage.

Outdoor dining for two is also recommended if you like romance, as you have an unobstructed view of over 2 miles of coastline (great for taking vacation pics).

For your convenience, we boast the shortest walk to the sand you can buy on the island if you feel like walking down to the beach to check on your family. But where Susie's Hideaway East really shines is when you wake up from a vacation siesta to the unbeatable views of the sand and ocean from our custom-made napping couch.

Linens and towels are included. Also we are only 5 minutes on a walking path from a wine store, grocery stores, and restaurants.

Susie's Hideaway East features all new kitchen with granite countertops, new appliances, new flooring, new bedding, ceiling fans, dishwasher, washer/dryer, flat screen TVs, and wireless high-speed Internet access.

Susie's Hideaway is a duplex (with two sides, East and West). This listing is for the East side. It is completely private -- there are no shared or common areas. And we are located well away from the crowds -- often the beach is completely empty in front of the house, allowing complete enjoyment of the white sandy beaches!

Tesla and EV Owners: We have a 120V electrical outlet located in the parking bays to charge your vehicle.

Linens and towels are included.

Hosts: Susie & William

The location is amazing central to great shopping, activities and right on the beach! Great place to vacation for the whole family. The house was spacious, the kitchen was perfect and parking was convenient. We started off a little shaky since the place was not cleaned after the last guests, but after calling in the incident everything was fixed quickly and by the time we got back from dinner the place was spotless. Good job! We highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to experience the magic of the Outer Banks!

Fantastic stay at Susie's Hideaway

This was our 2nd year coming down to Emerald Island for our April Break. Our stay was wonderful. The house is as advertised. Great location with all the amenities you need. Beach is beautiful. The surrounding area has some nice hikes and day trips for the family. We will be back next year.

Beautiful Get-Away!

The property is super clean and has everything we needed for our stay, but bring your own shade for the beach if you need it. The hosts were super communicative and shared tons of information regarding activities in the area, restaurants, and beach accessories for rent (I rented a Shibumi Shade). The view of the beach and the surf is amazing, just as advertised. We had a wonderful time!!

Great stay and Susie's Hideaway!

Stay was wonderful. Have stayed many times on EL but this location was closest to the ocean front so far. You can hear the ocean and several enjoyed sitting on the deck for hours listening. Home was very well stocked. USB chargers in every room. Kitchen had all the items needed. Keurig, coffee pot, toaster, detergent, can opener, plenty of sharp knives, pots and dishes. Owners communicated several times ahead of the check-in date with reminders and updates of the area. Responded to questions within 1-2 hrs.

Wonderful anniversary vacation!

This duplex was super clean, completely stocked with anything you might need, and beautifully decorated! It was very helpful to have phone chargers in all 3 bedrooms and living room. There were plenty of towels, wash cloths and bathmats. The starter bag had trash bags, dishwasher detergent, bar soap and Keurig coffee pods with sugar and creamer. There was extra dish soap and handsoap under the sinks too. We also enjoyed the rocking chairs, high top chairs and picnic table on the porch. What a great view sitting there. I guess one of the best things was being able to walk out to the beach without having a ton of steps. We will definitely be coming back if it's available.

The view can't be beat

If you want to enjoy the beach as much as you can, this is a great place to stay. 24/7 views of the beach. We had neighbors in the West side of the house and it was still quiet (an added plus that they were very nice). Nice chairs to bring to the beach. A well appointed kitchen. Very close to grocery store, a nature preserve, and restaurants.

About the host

Hosted by William & Susie

Host profile image
Susie and I bought this beach cottage in June of 2017, and spent two years lovingly renovating and restoring it.

It was a far bigger project than we ever imagined, as we gutted the cottage down to the studs, and rebuilt everything. The natural wood paneling is all that remains of the original house.

Our goal is to create a modern oasis, with a contemporary upscale flair and a coastal vibe. Relax, turn off your cell-phone & computers, and enjoy the beach!

We fell in love on this beach, and we got married on this beach. The views from our beach cottage are, in our opinion, among the most stunningly beautiful views in the world. It is heaven!

Susie & William, Owners

Why they chose this property

Susie's Hideaway is completely private -- there are no shared or common areas. And we are located well away from the crowds -- often the beach is completely empty in front of the house, allowing complete enjoyment of the white sandy beaches!

Susie's Hideaway is eco-friendly, situated atop the dunes overlooking the ocean, surrounded by untouched native coastal Carolina vegetation. We do not use any pesticide or defolients anywhere on the property, nor have we added a manicured lawn or other unnatural landscaping. Our beach is a loggerhead turtle nesting area. We are in harmony with nature.
