Sunset Hammock Oasis on The Point • 2-Min Walk to Beach & Sunsets • Emerald Isle
Welcome to A Place in the Sun on The Point in Emerald Isle, a spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bath coastal retreat just about a 2-minute walk to beach access and The Point’s famous sunsets, shelling, fishing, and wide shoreline.
Designed for relaxing, gathering, and making memories together, this home comfortably sleeps 8 guests, with room for up to 10 using the queen sleeper sofa. Multiple indoor and outdoor living spaces make it easy for families, couples, and groups to spread out while still staying connected.
THE HEART OF THE HOME
The second floor is the heart of the home, featuring bright, naturally lit living, dining, and kitchen spaces with vaulted ceilings that create an open, airy feel. It’s the perfect place to cook, unwind, and spend time together after a beach day.
The fully equipped kitchen makes meal prep easy, whether you're making pancakes before the beach, preparing fresh seafood, or gathering around dinner after sunset.
Step from the dining area onto the screened porch, where an oversized, cozy couch invites slow mornings with coffee, afternoon reading, or evening drinks.
The living room offers a large comfortable couch that converts to a queen sleeper sofa, along with a smart TV, streaming services, and board games for relaxed evenings and family fun.
Just outside, the wraparound front porch offers gliders and lounge seating for soaking up the sun by day and stargazing at night.
This level also includes:
• Queen Suite with a private full bathroom • Bunk Room with queen-over-queen bunk beds • Additional full bathroom • Washer and dryer
PRIVATE KING SUITE RETREAT
The top floor is a private escape featuring a king suite with its own full bathroom and balcony with sound views. Watch deer wander through at sunset and birds settle into the trees at dusk.
Just outside the suite is a small office area and cozy reading nook with a small library, perfect for quiet mornings, remote work, or slipping away with a book.
Every bedroom, plus the living room, includes its own smart TV with streaming services.
All beds feature high-quality mattresses with cooling properties and soft, breathable bedding. The king and queen suites also include adjustable bases with optional massage features for extra comfort after long beach days.
OUTDOOR LIVING & BEACH DAYS
The outdoor spaces are designed for slowing down and staying awhile.
Downstairs, three hanging hammock chairs beneath the deck, Adirondack seating, a porch swing, yard games, and multiple outdoor gathering spaces create a relaxed place to unwind after the beach.
Beneath the oak trees, another shaded retreat awaits with two additional hammock chairs and a full hammock tucked into the shade. It’s the perfect place for slow afternoons, naps, reading, coffee, conversation, or simply doing nothing at all.
The garage is stocked with beach essentials, including:
• Beach chairs • Beach towels • Coolers • Boogie boards • Kids’ beach toys • Other gear to help you pack lighter and enjoy the coast sooner
For meals at home, you’ll find both charcoal and propane grills, plus a propane shrimp boil cooker for classic coastal dinners and seafood feasts after a day in the sun.
You'll also find an outdoor shower and plenty of parking for multiple vehicles.
LOCATION: THE POINT
Located on The Point in Emerald Isle, one of the island’s most desirable areas, the home is just a short walk to public beach access and The Point’s wide shoreline, known for incredible sunsets, shelling, fishing, dolphin sightings, and quieter stretches of sand.

About the host
Hosted by Kristin Bodie
As an airline pilot, Air Force veteran, and frequent traveler, I’ve spent years living out of hotels, crash pads, rentals, and homes away from home. I created A Place in the Sun to be the kind of beach house I would want to stay in myself; comfortable, peaceful, clean, and full of little details that make vacations easier and more memorable. From cozy outdoor spaces and sunset views to quality bedding, oversized TVs, beach gear, and thoughtful extras throughout the home, every part of the house was designed to help guests slow down and enjoy the coast. I truly love Emerald Isle and hope guests feel at home here from the moment they arrive.
Why they chose this property
The Point area of Emerald Isle is one of the most peaceful and beautiful parts of the island. I love the quiet streets, coastal oak trees, wildlife, and relaxed atmosphere while still being just a short walk from the beach. The sunsets here are incredible, and the area feels tucked away from the crowds while still being close to restaurants, shops, and everything guests may need during their stay. One of my favorite things about this neighborhood is how calm it feels in the evenings — you can hear the roar of the ocean, feel the breeze through the trees, spot birds and deer nearby, and truly relax after a beach day.
What makes this property unique
A Place in the Sun was designed to feel bright, comfortable, and relaxing both indoors and outdoors. The home features multiple outdoor living spaces including a large wraparound deck, screened porch, hammock chairs beneath the oak trees, Adirondack gliders, sunset balcony views, and shaded gathering areas perfect for relaxing after the beach. Inside, guests will find oversized Smart TVs in every bedroom and the shared spaces, adjustable and massaging beds, a fully stocked kitchen, thoughtful storage throughout the home, and cozy coastal touches designed to make vacations easy and comfortable. The house combines peaceful island charm with modern comforts while still feeling warm and welcoming instead of overly commercial.
