About this property

Oceanfront East/West side -5BR 3BA -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, window allow views from many sides. The main living area on the top floor includes comfy seating, dining area for 8 plus 2 at our dolphin table , and fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances.. A queen bedroom with ocean view 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 and gorgeous oceanview from the tub.

There are 2 other bedrooms on this floor-both with queen beds. Each bedroom has an ocean view. Another bath is on this floor with tub/shower combo.

The first floor has our welcoming foyer, washer & dryer in its own closet and fifth bedroom with bunk beds and daybed/trundle bed combo.

The top oceanfront deck outside the main living area has a bistro dining table with 4 chairs. The top deck also has 2 rockers & 2 lounge chairs. The second deck outside the oceanfront master bedroom also has Adirondack chairs 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, a few beach chairs, & kids' beach toys are stored here for your use as well.

The main living area has a 50" smart TV. The master bedroom has its own 43"smart TV. Free high-speed 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 East 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.

Within Walking Distance of Restaurants, Ice Cream, Mini-Golf, Shopping, Bike & Kayak Rentals, Fishing Pier.

We’re so glad you and your family enjoyed your time in our home on Emerald Isle. You’re right -the views are fantastic- to see the sunrise and the sunset all in the same day right from the decks-what a great way to start and end of the day So many families have enjoyed a day at the beach right in front of our home and then they take a short walk to the ice cream shops or to the beach store or to the mini golf! We always want our guests to feel at home -so glad that you felt that. Please feel free to come again

You are so right about the great location of our oceanfront home! It is wonderful to wake up to the ocean on one side of the house and then be able to go explore the uniqueness of the Town of Emerald Isle on the other side-most within walking distance or short drive-restaurants, Movie Theater, grocery stores, shopping, and the Dairy Queen! The NC Aquarium is about 20 minutes down the road and the unique town of Swansboro is just a few miles down the road after crossing the bridge. We’re glad your family was able to come together and make new memories during your summer vacation in our home! We look forward to your return visit!

Great stay for family beach week

I booked this property for my immediate and extended family and everything was wonderful. The place was very clean, had all the amenities we needed and was the right size for all 11 of us. It was close to shopping and restaurants as well. Our host, Debby, was wonderful. She explained everything about the property to us in person upon our arrival and even brought us a plate of home made brownies! Definitely recommend and will be booking again in the future.

Relaxing, low key vacation

Great location, well appointed house with all of the household items and beach needs for your family to enjoy a beautiful week at the beach. Owners are very attentive, and helpful to ensure you have a great vacation. House is situated in a community that allows for an evening walk, walkable to restaurants, ice cream shops and the fishing pier. You won’t be disappointed with your stay here or Emerald Isle.

This property is in a prime location. It is close to shopping and restaurants and entertainment. The beachfront view is incredible. You feel like you are on the beach just sitting on the deck or in the living room. It is easy to watch the kids from the deck says grandma.The owner is instantly available and will be at your beck and call if anything is needed for your stay.

Almost perfect

Clean, open and airy, with a great view and location, our only complaint, which the owner admitted and somewhat compensated, was low water pressure, which prevented proper operation of the dishwasher. But everyone agreed, nonetheless, that we thoroughly enjoyed the setting and accommodations. Assuming that the one problem is addressed, we would recommend it and would return.

It was so nice meeting your family. I’m glad you could all get together in our home to make new memories. You’re right about the wonderful view -you can see the sunrise each morning over the pier. The location is great and that the grocery stores,Movie Theater, restaurants, and shopping are only a few blocks away. As promised, the booster pump has arrived and is installed to help with the low water pressure and it works great! Supplies and equipment are just taking longer these days get shipped and available for installation. Glad your family enjoyed our home with the beds made as a courtesy to you, the gift card to a local restaurant, and the homemade brownies -our family’s gift to yours-Always a treat to be at the beach- it’s such a sweet time with brownies!

Everything We Wanted

We were very happy with this home - wonderful view and proximity to an uncrowded beach. Home was clean, kitchen was well stocked, beds were comfortable and everything was freshly updated. Minor quibbles were glitches with a couple of appliances, which the owner quickly resolved, and no sand toys, but we were able to retrieve our own from home. We would definitely stay here again! Everyone loved the large living room window!

GREAT FIND ON Emerald Isle!

House has recently been refurbished and it shows but although it's HUGE it doesn't feel like a stiff McMansion....you have the character, can treat you and many friends/family to luxury accommodations and let your cares drift into the ocean at your door front! Home owner was amazing and like your going to the beach to visit grandma who surprised you with homemade brownies! Couldn't recommend this place more and am so grateful homeowner accommodated us for a last minute peak season booking.

Excellent view and location!

What a view! This house is located in the heart of Emerald Isle which makes getting to and from everything very easy. The view of the ocean more than makes up for the smaller bedrooms and lack of bathroom on the 1st floor. We had 2 families staying here for a total of 11 people and everyone had a bed to sleep in. The bunk room which is on the 1st floor had to share a bathroom with 2 other rooms on the 2nd floor. Since it was all kids it worked out ok, but it was still tight. The kids loved the outside shower so that worked out well. We had a serious problem with the dishwasher while we were there and with 11 people it was quite a hassle. We also had an issue working the thermostat but the owner was very prompt in responding and we finally figured it out. We were worried about staying in a duplex, we’ve never stayed in one before, but we never heard them at all, only saw them coming and going from the shared walkway to the beach. All in all we had a wonderful week enjoying the sights and sounds of the ocean. You won’t be disappointed if you book here. -The Ellis and Lloyd Families from Durham and Raleigh

Thanks for sharing so many of the wonderful things about our home-It has a great location on the island close to so many fun places to go, yet has its own special spot on the oceanfront beach right out the back door! When I came out and met your family during your stay at our home I saw how much fun that some of the kids were having with their scooters outside on the neighborhood streets and others just sitting watching TV and eating popcorn! The newly installed eco-smart thermostats may take time for some to understand the intricacies. The installer came by and just adjusted the batteries so it would show the Wi-Fi connection reading -so glad y’all enjoyed the coolness in the house the whole week you were there! Every effort was made to have a good water pressure for the dishwasher, but the proper booster pump now takes weeks to be delivered-so we took care of the dishes left after your departure. We always do our best take care of families as they gather to make new memories & recall past experiences and ask them to take care of our home too. So glad we were able to help your sister get the Amazon birthday packages received the next week after your departure-we try to go above & beyond for our guests! Thanks again for your efforts to adjust the stars on this review to make them consistent with this positive review-darn cell phone buttons! Have a great rest of your summer!
