Beachfront vacation rentals in Emerald Isle

Stayed here for about a week for a romantic getaway with my partner. The place was beautiful and just like the pictures. Very close to the beach and walking distance to restaurants. It was so clean and peaceful. Will definitely stay here again.

We had an amazing stay at Harmony’s place! It was super clean, incredible views of the ocean and watching the sunsets each night. The place was beautifully decorated and up to date appliances, everything we needed was there. Comfortable beds and pillow were a plus. We loved how easy it was to walk right out to the beach. Having two young kids, it was awesome to have beach chairs, toys, boogie boards, umbrella and MORE all provided! Short walk to the pier for food at Koko Cabana and Ruby’s coffee. We hope to make Oak Island our family spot each year and will book this condo again!

Great place with a lot of privacy and spacious rooms! Loved the area and recommended things to do around the area- sand dollars island was an awesome experience. The place needed a few fixes such as microwave handle that were communicated during our stay but overall would stay again!

We had a great vacation and highly recommend this condo! The rental was beautiful, very homey, updated and clean. The location can’t be beat. It was convenient getting to both the pool and the beach. It was only a couple of steps if you forgot something and had to run back. Even though the pool was shared, it was rarely crowded. The condo was well stocked, beyond your typical “enough to get started”. There were cleaning supplies, including dishwasher pods, trash bags, and laundry detergent. The kitchen was well stocked, had great appliances and all the basic cooking supplies like salt & pepper, cooking oil, coffee pods and coffee filters. The two decks were amazing. The view from the second story deck was incredible. I wish they had a table on one of the decks so we could eat meals outside while looking at the ocean, but we made do with the rocking chairs. The beds were a little stiff for our liking, but that’s personal preference. Otherwise it was amazing and we’ll be back!

We had an amazing time at Blue View! Our group was aged 2 and half to 83, so we have some insight to share. The stairs were difficult to manage for our older family members but we had expected that (hard to find oceanfront ranches!) But the location made it easy for the family to be on the balcony and enjoy watching the grandchild play on both the playground and the beach! The views were impressive, we slept peacefully in comfortable beds to the sound of ocean waves. The home was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed to feel right at home.

We had a great time at Williams place. We had no issues but I feel confident that William would have been quick to respond if any did arise. Our only complaint was the bed. It was a little hard but definitely not a deal breaker. It’s in a great location as you can walk to the beach and many local restaurants. We would recommended and stay again!

This was definitely one our smoothest Airbnb stays. Everything was exactly as shown and the place is very accommodating and has everything you may need. The entire place is very comfortable and clean. Jennifer was extremely responsive whenever I had a question, which was seldom because most everything was already provided. The place has beautiful views, easy parking, and very accessible to the beach. And getting around to places was even easier. We also enjoyed this part of the coast the most because of the ease of access everywhere and more central location to Beaufort, Atlantic Beach, and Emerald Isle. The location made it a 5-10 minute drive to almost anywhere in these areas. We highly recommend this and will be staying again the next time around!

Better then ever! We were there last year and the upgrades made were amazing! I could tell this condo is much loved and extremely well taken care of. So clean! We actually, each year we stayed there, we booked immediately for the next year! Very peaceful and calming! This is a 5 star place to stay in Atlantic Beach!

This was our first time in Atlantic Beach and we all really liked it and would like to come back. We would gladly stay at this property again. It is in a quiet, private location, yet very close to the action. We were very comfortable with the size and furnishings. The owner even arranged a sign and balloons in the kitchen wishing us a happy anniversary. The back decks and yard were great for our dogs. We like things as quiet and uncrowded as possible, so we went to the beach at the New Bern Street public access point. There are restrooms and an outdoor shower. Once you are on the actual beach, you can only see big beach houses and no businesses, hotels or condos. We also enjoyed the aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores, and Cape Lookout National Seashore, and highly recommend both. Having a Dollar General right down the street was very convenient, and there is a Food Lion not far down the road. There are also plenty of beach/souvenir shops close by. Many thanks to Aaron for a great stay.

Staying at this Airbnb felt like a true escape. The location couldn't have been better – being mere steps from the beach was such a treat, allowing for spontaneous walks and the calming sound of the waves. It was wonderful to find such a genuinely dog-friendly place; my pups absolutely loved it, which made the stay even more enjoyable for me. The entire atmosphere was incredibly relaxing, and I found the off-season to be a particularly lovely time to visit, with beautiful weather and a sense of peacefulness. The property itself had everything I could possibly need, making it easy to settle in and feel comfortable. Amy was fantastic – always communicative and helpful, ensuring a smooth and easy stay. While there were plenty of options for things to do in the area, I also appreciated the opportunity to simply unwind and work remotely in such a serene setting. The upper deck was my favorite spot for getting sun many hours of the day. I’ve stayed in many airbnbs and this is a favorite!

Perfect location! Just a few steps to the beach on a coded private walkway. Within easy walkable distance to the boardwalk for us & our small dog. Britts donuts has always been one of my favorite places! Condo was very clean. The king bed was really comfy. Amanda messaged after we checked in to make sure everything was going good & that we didn't have any issues with anything. I would highly recommend this condo.

What a delightful experience! The house was as advertised and more. Kate provided many thoughtful touches (easy entertainment navigating, extra kitchen and food treats, fully stocked kitchen and cooking aids, games, beach supplies), which were wonderful surprises. She operates a pet friendly house, with pet supplies too. The location is marvelous, and the Surf City beaches are wonderful. She truly is a five star hostess, and this lovely home is perfect for a family/pet holiday.

The host was very responsive and the place was great all around. Views are amazing, parking is out front of the unit. This spot is one of the best for the price and worked well for three people for two nights. I will definitely stay here again when I am back in town.

Our stay was wonderful and the location can’t be beat. Sabine was friendly and proactive every step of the way. We loved being right on the water and the section of the beach wasn’t too crowded even on Memorial Day Weekend. Would highly recommend staying here. Sabine is a great host!

so much to write about. the location was perfect, the beds were comfy and so many things their use it really made it easy to stay and be comfortable!

This place was exactly what we needed for a family vacation at the beach. Walking distance to the ocean, close to restaurants, and stores.

Shari was so kind and helpful. She worked with our schedule when meeting us for the key, etc. She provided us great recommendations and was attentive to our needs. She was worried about an issue but it was a non-issue—-felt like she truly cared for us. Thanks again!

The house exceeded our expectations. There is beach equipment/towels available for guests, along with a rise off area by the garage. The kitchen is fully stocked compared to other air bnbs I've stayed in. Check in/check out is super easy and the responsive hosts created a helpful guidebook to answer all questions and even included restaurant/activity recommendations. The walk to the beach access was much shorter than we thought from the map view, so this is a perfect location in vicinity to the beach. The house was spotless when we arrived, all of the linens are high quality and cleaned very well. The mattresses and pillows were also extremely comfy! We've decided that Topsail will be our regular beach spot and we'll be staying here whenever possible!!

Wonderful girls weekend at the beach. 3 of the 4 bedrooms had ocean views. Spent most of our time lounging in the chairs on the decks!

Alan’s place was amazing and so perfect! I loved the location and it truly has everything you need for a beach getaway spot. I would highly recommend staying here and I legit cannot wait to go back!!!!

Great location. One of the quietest and prettiest beaches on the island. Amazing view from the deck. Would definitely stay there again over other rentals in the area.

The house was exactly as pictured & Beata was so friendly & easy to communicate with. The house was very clean (by far the most clean pet-friendly home we have stayed in). You would have no idea it was pet friendly if you were traveling without four legged children. We can’t wait to return next year!

This was one of the best places we have ever stayed at when using Air BNB! The view is spectacular, the beach is about 30 steps from the deck. It is truly as the pictures describe. It was also one of the most well stocked rentals, with phone chargers and adaptors at every plug in! The amenities were high quality. We did some cooking in a few nights and the kitchen had everything we could possibly need. We have been vacationing to Emerald Isle for at least 15-20 years, and it will be hard to find anywhere better to stay than here. We hope to be back again asap!

Really nice place, convenient to the beach and neighborhood amenities, comfortable bed
