We had a wonderful time at The Point in Emerald Beach! The location to public beach access was great, my kids loved the calm waters and shelling. The house was great for our multigenerational family ranging from an infant to early 70s. We enjoyed the family suite downstairs and the wildlife that came to visit each evening/early morning. Thank you!

We enjoyed our visit to your beach house. Our party had two folks in their 70’s, and the hike to the actual beautiful beach was brutal for them.

2025 vacation

We had a great time and enjoyed our week. We would rather have had inside steps to connect since there were showers 3 of our 7 days.But it was still very nice! WE saw deer almost every day. there were also rabbits and turtles in the yard. Thank you!!

Great family vacation

This was a great vaction for our family, our kids had plenty of room. The owners are very responsive and accomodating. The house is a 5 minute walk to the beach, which has 2 access points. The beach is a more laid back and spread out feeling to it. Everything you need is close by. Will stay here again!

Great spot

This is a great spot to avoid the beach traffic farther north. The walk to the beach shouldn't be a deterrent for anyone with a cart to pull chairs or beach gear. It's only about 100 yards from the beach access a block away.

Amazing home in a perfect location!

We had a great time with three generations spending quality time together. The house was clean, well stocked with everything you need, and with plenty of room (4 bathrooms plus the outdoor shower)! We highly recommend this house. Its in a more quiet neighborhood within 7 min walk to a beautiful beach (2 beaches). Its by the bike path as well. The owner was super responsive and we had an amazing time. Thanks Jessica!

Great Rental to Share Between Two Young Families

We loved Here Comes the Sun at EI! Jessica is so friendly and prompt with communication. The location of the property is fantastic, in a quiet beach neighborhood with close access to a wide beach. One major perk of this rental is the large yard which was awesome for our little ones to run around and play in the afternoons after going to the beach. Our kids loved the tree swing! The property has a main house upstairs and then a second space with a small living area and kitchen downstairs which was great for us since we had two young families visiting. Everyone could be together upstairs or have some extra space spread across both areas when needed. The house was very clean and comfortable. Couldn’t have been happier with our stay!

Divide house

We really enjoyed our stay at your house but wasn’t aware of the house being divided. We assumed there would have been stairs inside rather than outside. It wasn’t listed on the website, at least nothing I could see. But other than that we had a wonderful time at your beach house.

Perfect Emerald Isle Haven

The house is beautiful, well-located and well-appointed. It is just a short walk to the beach, and is right at the SW end of Emerald Isle close to the inlet, which is a wonderful, huge, open beach with great surf fishing, a shallow tidal lagoon for the kids and has so much space that you always have plenty of space. The house is comfortable, has all that you need to cook, and the grill, firepit and beach toys make it easy for everyone to be happy. We loved playing cards in the screened-in porch, and with the separate "apartment" on the ground floor it meant that my in-laws had their own private space. I would 100% recommend this rental to anyone, and we will for sure be hoping to stay again next time we are at Emerald Isle! Jessica is friendly, responds incredibly quickly to all messages and is attentive and accommodating. Thank you!

Great beach house!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Here Comes the Sun! At the Point of Emerald Isle, the house is conveniently located between two public beach access points and end of the island. The beach at this part of the island is very wide and has fun tidal pools at low tide.The house is the first beach house we have rented that has felt like a home away from home. Our large party was able to spread out between the three levels, giving us full bathroom(s) and bedroom(s) at each level. We found the beds comfortable, and the kitchen fully stocked with dishes, pots, pans, glasses, mugs, etc.Jessica and Matt were extremely responsive and helpful during our stay. We hope to visit Here Comes the Sun again soon!

Perfect, Peaceful Getaway!

We had a wonderful vacation here and would definitely return when we get the chance. The house was spotless, and the layout was perfect for our needs. It was peaceful and secluded, with little to no traffic, and we even had the pleasure of seeing deer several times! Everything we could want was provided—from a gas grill to bicycles, and the short walk to the beach led to breathtaking sunsets. Communication with Jessica was fast and extremely helpful throughout our stay.

Amazing family stay at Emerald Isle

The week had everything. We cooked meals, walked to the beach, hosted, played cards, reconnected… and it was all made possible through this amazing home. The stunning kitchen/living room was the perfect hangout area for when we weren’t at the beach. The garden is so stunning, we had many friends stop by including; deer, turtles, herons and other birds, just so much wildlife! Would stay again.

Nice place but won’t go back

The place had character, but the layout was a little awkward (smaller than expected common areas) and we had some cleanliness issues upon arrival that should never happen especially when the fees charged for cleaning and such are so high.

A Great Place to Stay!

"Here Comes the Sun" is a wonderful home to stay in on Emerald Ise. The place was very clean and met all of our expectations. The garage is full of things for the beach and things to have fun with at the house. My fiancé and I stayed in the bottom living area while my cousin and his family stayed in the top. We found both living areas to be more than adequate for our total of 7 guests. The walk to the beach is minimal, though crossing the dunes can be hard on your knees! The beach at The Point is the biggest beach I think I have ever seen, and the crowd is very minimal even in mid June. I would highly recommend this property and would love to go back myself ASAP!

About the host

Hosted by Jessica

Host profile image
I have traveled to the Point of Emerald Isle since the early 1980s to our family's beach home and have always felt it to be my favorite beach getaway. With its calmness from the world, a very peaceful area to get away from the world and relax. The deer, the beautiful large beaches, the fish, the shells, all make this place our piece of heaven. This property holds a special part of my life, as it came at a time I needed a change in my life. My father lost his battle to cancer and always loved the Point. This was my opportunity to build a new for my family in his honor. He was a huge Beatles fan, so in his memory Here Comes the Sun was named.

Why they chose this property

There are so many beautiful features that make this property more special as it holds the character of its original space with the wooded beams. Having two separate living spaces gives renters the option of having some space from others if needed and allows for more guests.
