We stayed for a whole week and enjoyed every second of it! The condo was immaculate and it was just the right size. Very close to the beach. The owner, Mike was very easy to work with and if we needed anything, he was only a phone call away. We will be back!

Wonderful stay in Emerald Isle!

This was our first trip to Emerald Isle, but it won’t be our last! We loved this condo and the complex it was located in. Having two balconies was a treat— we ate lunch on the bedroom balcony several times. The king-sized bed was comfortable. Appreciated having the full-sized washer and dryer in the condo. It was a quick and easy walk to both the pool and the beach. And Mike was super helpful, friendly, communicative, and accommodating! Highly recommend.

Great little place

Great little place in the heart of Emerald Isle. It's cute! Very close to most things and very short walk to the beach. Having many different options on the television was very nice. Only a few downsides to place but not major include low water pressure, washing sheets/towels before leaving, and place could use a deep clean/dusting. Aren't deal breakers and would definitely like to use this place again in the future! Would refer to others!

Excellent vacation

I can hardly put into words how perfect this vacation spot was for me! Visiting Emerald Isle is always like coming home, and staying at Mike’s place truly exceeded every expectation I had. The condo was a picture of cleanliness and comfort, and two pools!!! The blissful stroll to the beach felt like I was in paradise. Absolutely breathtaking everyday!Everything you need is within reach, making this getaway even more extraordinary. Mike was incredibly kind and supportive, always just a message away, making it feel like I was among friends. I’m already counting down the days until I can return to this little slice of heaven.

Wonderful spot for a fall getaway!

We had never been to Emersld Isle before, but we will return! The area was quiet, clean, and very pleasant. This condo was exactly as shown and the owner, Mike, was very responsive and great to communicate with. For those concerned with having to do linens laundry before checking out, we took our own towels so we could just bring them home with us to wash. Put the one set of sheets in the washer as soon as we got up, and into the dryer where you’re to leave them for the cleaning crew. Easy! We highly recommend this condo for 2 people for a pleasant place to stay in Emerald Isle.

Great opportunity to recharde

We arrived later than planned due to a brief illness. Michael was available to let us in the gate. We found the space just as it was described; the furnishings were more than adequate. We enjoyed a short walk to a nicely groomed beach. There was information for us with suggestions for shopping and dining. We enjoyed visiting Beaufort, nearby. There we took the National Park Service excursion to Shackelford island to see the wild horses. It was a very relaxing week with many fine memories, and we look forward to our return someday, soon.

Work on Vacation

The property was clean but it had a very strong closed up musty smell. The smell was overpowering at times but we realized that keeping the doors opened did help a bit. It is also too much work for vacation. I know it is important to make sure the property is maintained but for me as a guest to have to do my laundry i.e. washing the bed linens and towels was a bit too much. I went to vacation and have fun. I am not a slob by no means but, I definitely did not sign up to clean up. I will say that the property was really nice but way too many restrictions. We were only able to relax 100% when we went out. I would like to see maybe a little less than strict policy for guest. Again I am by no means a slob but having to wash my linens and things was a bit too much. I would also suggest airing the property out before renting it again. I think if the owner or property manager would have done an initial walk thru before we occupied the space they would have picked up on the strong musty smell.

Terrible water pressure but otherwise nice.

This condo was well supplied with linens and was clean. Our major problem was the terrible water pressure in the shower and sink. The owner offered to send out a plumber but we didn't want to waste our vacation time waiting for him and staying with him..This should have been checked prior to our arrival.

We are a family of 5 with kids ages 3, 2, and 1. This was very family friendly and we made due with the one room. Short walk to the beach with plenty of space to play and not a lot of people. Outdoor shower was a plus too. We really enjoyed our stay and will try to come again!
