About this property

Oceanfront 5BR 3BA Home -Great Island Location! Book Now!

Our oceanfront home is a sanctuary-a place to relax, unwind, and rejuvenate. No better way to start your day than to listen to the waves & feel the ocean breezes!

Each room has been uniquely styled in cool calming colors-Nothing takes away from the Atlantic ocean with all its ever changing colors of ocean & sky!

Our home is set up with a reverse floor plan to maximize the view-triple deck doors, windows & bay window allow views from many sides. The main living area on the top floor includes the comfy sectional sofa with recliners, dining area for 8 plus 4 at the kitchen bar, and fully equipped kitchen with beautiful copper apron sink & granite countertops. A queen bedroom with ocean view & bath with granite vanity & copper sink plus tub/shower combo are on this floor too.

The middle floor hosts the oceanfront master bedroom with en suite bath complete with Jacuzzi tub, separate shower, double granite vanity with copper sinks.

There are 2 other bedrooms on this floor-one with twin beds and another with a queen bed. Each bedroom has an ocean view. Another bath is on this floor with granite vanity & copper sink plus tub/shower combo.

The first floor has our welcoming foyer, high efficiency washer & dryer in its own closet and fifth bedroom with single bed & queen sleeper sofa.

Each of our two oceanfront decks has a dining table with 4 chairs. The top deck outside the main living area also has 2 rockers & 2 lounge chair plus an umbrella for the dining area. The second deck outside the oceanfront master bedroom also has a wonderful rocker to sit in and watch the waves & feel the ocean breezes-so cozy!

Did we mention the oceanfront outdoor shower area-like none other! We have a sitting area with 2 rockers, & unique flower garden area plus you can hear the ocean waves as you shower! Great place to clean up after leaving the beach. (foot wash available on the private walkway too)

Since we are a duplex, we have designated parking for 4-5 cars (one car garage). Charcoal grill, beach chairs, & kids' beach toys are stored here for your use as well.

Each bedroom has a flat screen satellite TV. The main living area has a 46" satellite TV & VCR/DVD player. We also have Netflix & Amazon available for our guests as well. Free WiFi is installed for your use too.

We are located directly on the Atlantic Ocean with spectacular views of sunrises in the east and sunsets in the west. No Wake Zone West provides all the needed amenities plus those that only God can provide . . . again the sunrises and sunsets, the smell of the salt air, gorgeous waves, soft sand, pelican fly-overs, and the bountiful and unique shells that wash up on shore.

Every time of the year is special and there is no bad day at the beach. We've enjoyed the strong winds and powerful waves during tropical storms, the awesome hot days of summer, and the relaxing cool days of autumn. The mere sound of the ocean waves brings a calmness to weary travelers. It's nice to go to sleep and wake up to the steady rhythm of the Atlantic Ocean.

We had a wonderful, relaxing week at Debby and Charlie's home on Emerald Isle. It was the perfect place to get away during COVID.

Great Week. Wonderful Hostess

We had a great week at the beach. The location was perfect. Lots of small & personal touches made this stay wonderful. (Brownies were amazing!) Debby was wonderful to work with and super quick to respond to any messages I sent. The only con I’d list would be the decking has some nail pops and is tough on bare feet...so just keep your flops on the deck. Would definitely recommend & return.

Fun reunion with friends

We have nothing but good things to say about this vacation home. We were 3 couples with 4 young children meeting up from different states to enjoy a long weekend together. The owners were helpful in making our somewhat last minute decision come together. The house was plenty big for us and the pictures on the site are every accurate of what the house looks likes. The furnishings are nicer than most beach rentals and the quality of bed linens, towels far superior to what rental companies would provide. The kitchen is very well equipped.....we never lacked a dish or glass, even with 10 people using them. The house is in a great location on the island, very close to shopping, but far enough to feel secluded. The views are amazing. We truly hope to return!

Wonderful property and owner!

Our family/ friend group rented both East and West sides of this property the same week so that we could all vacation together at Emerald Isle, our absolute favorite beach spot! This arrangement suited our needs perfectly for our group of adults, young adults and 3 children 5 and under. Property was clean, well maintained, and stocked with everything we needed in the kitchen to cook our meals each night. Short boardwalk to beach is perfect and this area of beach was very uncrowded. Sunrises and sunsets are visible from the porch which is amazing! Debby, the owner was amazing to work with and very responsive both before and during our stay and even greeted us when we arrived with a tour of the property. If I could give this property more stars, I would. We had an amazing vacation and made memories to last a lifetime!

Great house for family vacation

This was a great house! We had the grandkids (5 & 8 yrs old), our grown kids, and us (7 people total). The house was exactly as described. Our host was great with communications and check in/out. All appliances worked perfectly, furniture and beds were very comfortable, and everything was clean when we checked in. On day one the hot water heater started leaking; we called the host, and it was repaired that same day while we were away so no issue at all…very responsive. View from upper floors was spectacular. A/C worked great and kept the house very cool even though it was +93F all week. We would definately rent this house again…just wish it had an elevator. Thanks for a great family vacation and memories!
