We had a wonderful stay at this property! The location was absolutely perfect and made exploring the area incredibly easy. The host was highly responsive throughout our trip and provided a fantastic list of local recommendations that helped us plan our days. We also loved the sweet treat left for us—it was a very pleasant personal touch that made us feel welcome. The only minor issue we encountered was with the bathroom; the shower water took quite a long time to drain, so it could use a little maintenance. Overall, it was a great experience and we would definitely recommend it!

Labor Day Weekend Stay

My family and I really enjoyed our time at Emerald Isle. It was so relaxing to sit on the balcony and listen to the ocean! At night we went down to the shore and looked at crabs, there were so many! The place had a lot of room to accommodate the amount of people there! Max was so kind and communicative before, during and after our stay! I am looking forward to coming back here on our next trip :)

Hurricane Ian

Well as luck would have it, our advanced scheduling of a family vacation landed on the exact dates of hurricane Ian’s path. The owner was very accommodating, concerned and went the extra step in keeping the communication lines open with us. God was good and gave us some gorgeous weather after all. This oceanfront place is beautiful. We had an amazing time and plan to go back….hopefully next time without the hurricane !

Wonderful beachfront vacation cottage

Our family had a relaxing vacation at this perfect oceanfront cottage. The owners were very kind and gave us information on restaurants and the 4th of July festivities in the area. The ice cream treat was delicious! Thanks again! Kitchen had all the necessary utensils for cooking and beds were very comfy. We loved sitting on upper and lower decks and watching the ocean.waves. We also enjoyed meeting the nice family on the west side. Looking forward to renting this cottage again sometime! Thanks for everything!

Perfect for family vacation

First, I can't say enough about the hosts, Max and Sophie. They told us everything we needed to know about the property, gave us suggestions for restaurants and places to visit, during our stay they let us know of any upcoming bad weather or local events and the best was the wonderful surprise when we arrived! The home had everything we needed...we could have left all of the kids beach toys at home, there was plenty there for 10 kids, in addition to beach chairs, boogie boards, floating devices, etc. The kitchen was fully stocked so cooking 3 meals a day was no problem when we wanted to. Plenty of seating on the decks and the view is beautiful! Highly recommend!

First vacation in 2 yrs!

Our stay at Sea Star was fantastic! Thanks to Covid, our family hadn't been on a vacation in 2 years so we desperately needed this. The house was beautiful, great for families and worked well for us and to be right on the beach and close to shops & restaurants made it even better! Our only issue was the refrigerator in the house never cooled down., but that was a minor setback. Already looking forward to our next trip!

Sensational Sea Star!

Our family of 5 plus 2 grandparents enjoyed an amazing week in July at the Sea Star! This was only our second time visiting Emerald Isle and the location, views of the ocean and proximity to the beach could not be beat! We loved the layout of the house. There was plenty of room to relax and the deck and chairs are perfect! The house was very clean upon arrival and Helen patiently answered all of our questions prior to arrival. The house had almost everything we needed and we look forward to visiting again soon!
