About this property

Relax & Recharge w/LUXE Spa•Pool•Gym•Beach•Cart

Settle into Surf + Soul—your laid-back seaside retreat designed for connection, movement, and rest. Start the day in the garage gym, unwind between the pool, spa, and cold plunge, or explore the island by bike or golf cart. From sunrise coffee on the deck to starlit evenings by the fire table, this is a place to slow down, recharge, and enjoy time together. With elevated finishes and standout wellness amenities, your unforgettable escape awaits.

— ABOUT THE SPACE —

Welcome to Surf + Soul — a luxury coastal retreat where adventure, restoration, and togetherness meet, just 950 feet from the Atlantic on North Carolina’s Crystal Coast. With 4 bedrooms, 3 en-suites, 2 living spaces, a vast upper floor deck, an indoor gym, and a fabulous outdoor area with private pool and spa, there’s plenty of room to gather your favorite people and 4-legged friends for a vacation you won’t forget.

PLEASE NOTE: Your booking is not final until the signed rental agreement has been returned. The pool is heated from April through October. Additional details are outlined below.

— UPSTAIRS —

• Upper deck with daybed, fire table & sunset views
• Screened porch with dining for 8 & hanging chairs
• Open-concept living, dining & kitchen
• Shuffleboard table & 65” Roku Smart TV
• Gas fireplace & designer seating

The stairs by the side of the house lead you straight up to the deck - one of many fabulous hangout spaces at Surf + Soul! Take a book and curl up on the shaded daybed, start your morning with your favorite yoga routine, and spend evenings chatting by the fire as the sun sets in front of the house.

The deck leads you to the screened porch with an 8-seat dining table and 2 hanging chairs - just walk right out from the kitchen and sit back with that first cup of coffee in the morning.

Inside, you enter the open main living space – a bright, welcoming space designed for connection. The living room has a large sectional, a 65” Roku Smart TV, a fireplace, and a shuffleboard - a perfect place to catch up with loved ones.

The dining table seats 8 people, and the large kitchen island has 4 additional bar seats. The fully stocked kitchen makes home cooking easy with high-end appliances, an induction cooktop, and ceramic Caraway cookware for clean, easy cooking. Plus, the open layout allows for the chefs in the group to socialize while preparing meals! Your four-legged family members are welcome here too - we have dog food bowls, an extra leash, and some toys for your pup.

• Induction cooktop & high-end appliances
• Ceramic Caraway cookware
• Fully stocked with prep ware and small appliances
• Counter island (seats 4)
• Dining table (seats 8)

The hallway leads you to the three upstairs bedrooms. All bedrooms at Surf + Soul have a Roku Smart TV and bedside charging stations and come with complimentary bath products. Be sure to stop at the Emerald Isle Bucket List and see how many boxes you can check off by the end of your stay! A laundry closet with washer and dryer is also tucked along the hallway for added convenience.

Down the hallway, you will find the Shoreline King Suite and the Saltwater + Sunsets Queen Suite, both with full en-suite bathrooms and gorgeous walk-in, tiled showers with luxury fixtures. At the back of the hallway is the expansive Oyster King Suite complete with an office area, full bathroom with double vanity, and private balcony overlooking the pool area.

• 4 bedrooms / 4 baths, including 3 en-suites
• Smart Roku TVs & bedside charging in every room
• Premium linens (all freshly laundered each stay)
• Complimentary Soapbox bath products

— DOWNSTAIRS —

• Lounge with bar, 65” Roku Smart TV & seating
• Two retro arcade games (Golden Tee & Class of ’81)
• Board games & gathering space

Downstairs is where the fun really begins! Mix up drinks at the bar, settle in for a movie, or challenge your crew to classic arcade games — from Ms. Pac-Man and Galaga to Golden Tee and more.

This level is also home to the Seashell Queen Suite, a spacious fourth bedroom with two queen beds, ideal for kids, another couple, or guests who appreciate a little extra privacy. Just outside the suite is an adjacent full bath with a tiled shower/tub combo and upscale fixtures, offering the same thoughtful comfort found throughout the home.

If movement is part of your ideal getaway, head into the garage gym for a workout. This is not your typical rental gym — it’s a thoughtfully outfitted training space for everything from strength work to conditioning or a quick sweat before the beach. And when you’re done, recovery is just steps away. The gym includes free weights and kettle bells, an exercise bike, a rowing machine, an extra fridge for easy access to cold drinks and a TV so you can put on your favorite online workout class!

• 12’ x 20’ fully equipped gym
• Rogue Echo bike & Concept2 rower
• Squat rack with pull-up & dip bars
• Adjustable weight bench
• Barbells, bumper plates, dumbbells (5–50 lbs)
• Kettlebells, wall balls & plyo box
• Yoga mats, bands & mobility equipment
• Workout timer, whiteboard & 50” Roku Smart TV

— OUTDOOR LIVING —

• 14’ x 28’ heated saltwater pool (Apr–Oct)
• 6-person outdoor spa
• Cold plunge
• Outdoor shower
• Surround sound & shaded lounge areas
• Dining table (seats 8) & Wilmington gas grill
• Private, fenced backyard

Step outside the sliding doors from the lounge and settle into your own backyard oasis. Move between the pool, spa, and cold plunge, or relax in the shade after rinsing off in the outdoor shower. You can even draw the curtains for extra shade, creating a true luxury spa feel. Whether it’s a casual cookout on the grill or a slow afternoon in the sun, this space is designed to help you unwind.

And when you’re ready to trade relaxation for a little adventure, we’ve stocked Surf + Soul with thoughtful gear to help you make the most of island life:

• Golf cart
• 4 Jamis beach cruiser adult bikes
• Paddleboards & longboard
• Shibumi shade & chairs, beach cart
• Cornhole boards

Cruise to the beach, paddle calm waters, catch a wave, or challenge the family to a cornhole tournament — the fun is built in.

As the day winds down, head to the front deck for sunset views, gather around the fire table, or curl up in a swing chair with a good book.

Surf + Soul was created to be more than just a place to stay — it’s a place to reconnect, recharge, and make lasting memories. Whether you’re here for adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, everything you need is already waiting for you.

About the host

Hosted by Sarah J Mills

Host profile image
At Joy + Light Retreats, my husband and I believe in creating spaces where people can slow down, laugh harder, and savor the moments that matter most. Travel has always been our family’s love language, and designing destinations where joy, comfort, and connection come naturally is our passion. Each retreat is thoughtfully curated to feel both elevated and effortless—places where you can exhale, settle in, and embrace vacation mode.

Emerald Isle is where much of our inspiration began, shaping how we approach travel and togetherness. Those experiences guide everything we create, no matter the location. Across all Joy + Light Retreats, we imagine families and friends gathering, adventuring, and making memories that last long after checkout—where joy feels easy, connection comes naturally, and every stay becomes part of your story.

Why they chose this property

One of the things we love most about Surf + Soul is its location on the island and its close proximity to the beach, the bike paths and the local restaurants in town.

You can luxuriate in your own private secluded sanctuary one minute and then hop on a bike or into the golf cart to head for dinner the next minute. There are two direct walkways available nearby to the quiet, pristine beach, so it’s only a 5-minute walk to the Atlantic Ocean.

Of course, the island is filled with activities like surfing, fishing, kayaking and paddleboarding, along with just soaking in the white sand beaches of the Crystal Coast. There are just so many Emerald Isle experiences we want you to enjoy that you’ll find our own EI Bucket List. It’s framed in the kitchen with markers, so you can check things off! Here are a few to start, but let us know your favorites!

• Fish Hut Grill for amazing food and drinks
• Stir It Up and 4J’s for coffee
• Sweet Spot and Kilwins for ice cream
• Caribsea for an upscale meal, delicious crabcakes and a rooftop bar

What makes this property unique

Surf + Soul delivers a vacation experience packed with feel-good amenities designed for both movement and relaxation. Cool off in the 14' x 28' saltwater, heated pool, sink into the 6-person outdoor spa, or reset in the cold plunge after a workout or beach day. Rinse off in the outdoor shower before hopping on one of the Jamis beach cruisers or cruising the island in the golf cart. Paddle out on the sound with our paddleboards, catch a few waves on the soft-top surfboard, or gather by the grill for an easy outdoor meal. With inviting spaces to move, rest, and reconnect, Surf + Soul is where seaside days turn into soulful nights.
