Really enjoyed the place super cute! The pictures make it look like there are 4 beds but there are only 3. 1 queen two doubles. No pull out sofa , so our boys slept on sofa top. I’d recommend a pro candy barrier between the two suites. Other than that was a great

This duplex felt very clean. The beach access was literally steps away from the front stairs. Super cute home that was perfect for our small family.

Amazing stay at Emerald Isle

Surf Sounds was THE PERFECT house for our stay in Emerald Isle!! My two teenagers appreciated the 2nd bedroom having two full beds, and we all slept well on the mattresses! The house was very clean, the linens were in good shape (and smelled nice!), and the kitchen was well stocked. The house was a perfect location to get to the beach - as close to oceanfront as you can get without paying oceanfront prices! The beach access was mere steps from the house, and Emerald Isle town was a short drive away (5 min). Perfect location!Owners were VERY communicative and responsive during both booking and our stay! I would 100% book this house again. Highly recommend!
