Clean, cozy, lovely views, beach access, and more!
The Seahorse Castle was perfect for 2! Clean, plenty of dishes and kitchen must haves, a soakable sized tub, decorated with beachy vibes, and just as described. If you have 4x4 I recommend Fort Fisher to drive out and set up on the beach. We had an amazing time, ate good food, heard live music, went to CB market around the lake Saturday morning, and can’t wait to return! Jeanette’s place will always be special to us, we got engaged! 💕 Kelly & Pauly

Ola Verde
Great place to stay! Jarrod and his wife were very friendly and responsive with any questions on the app. They even let us check in early. Accommodating bikes was so thoughtful and fun for us as we biked to coffee places and lunch. We kayaked to palm tree island and that was so much fun! It’s also a great location to walk to the beach as well! The balcony was so peaceful in the morning and at night. 10/10 experience and first time vacationing to Wilmington. Will 100% come back!

Modern apt for water lovers - close to bay/ocean
Had a great stay in Kill Devil Hills. The place was clean, comfortable, and matched the listing well. Jason and Crystal were excellent hosts—welcoming, respectful, and easy to deal with. They were also understanding and responsive when needed, which made the experience smooth from start to finish. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a solid spot in the area.

Riverfront sunset balcony + free covered parking
My husband and I enjoyed spending the weekend here for a wedding! The apartment is beautifully situated over the water with an amazing view. Right near the apartment is a local place to get drinks. The apartment is walking distance to everything, but also far enough where we didn’t hear a lot of noise. Aubrey was very responsive and gave explicit directions. It was helpful to have the parking garage which wasn’t far away at all! We also appreciated the “manual” with recommendations for local favorites including shopping and restaurants! The apartment was nicely decorated and clean. We would definitely stay there again! Thank you!

Chic Hideaway | Shower Shack | Kayak | SUP | MP7.5
We stayed one night to celebrate our anniversary. It was a lovely studio apartment with many special small touches! We loved the bed….super comfortable. Make sure that you are aware that the shower is outside, though! It’s not an indoor shower, so be ready to shower outside! We loved the peaceful quiet neighborhood with really old, beautiful trees!

Captains Quarters | Coastal Charm | Bikes | MP6
Everything was accurately described and very clean. We enjoyed our stay!

Adorable OKI guest suite ~ walk to BEACH
This place was beautiful! Erika has a very clean space and it was perfect for my friend and I’s vacation! The walk to the beach was a breeze, and there were lots of fun things and cute shops around the area! Erika was super responsive and helpful and gave perfect instructions that made getting checked in & out super smooth. I will definitely be back! Tippy was the cutest :)

The Coastal Studio
We stayed here at Zoe’s place after our wedding. It was the most perfect little place to stay just my husband and I. We loved having a quiet little space to return to after hanging out with family and friends all week. Having the nice little touches like coffee from a local shop, laundry detergent, and bathroom items already there made it even extra special. Zoe definitely knows how to make a guest experience wonderful! If we ever need a little space for just us two we will return again!!
House rentals with beach access

Tryon: Mountain Views, Lake & Hot tub
Peter was a great host and very responsive with any questions or request. Home was exactly as described, were looking for a peaceful quiet and secluded weekend getaway. Porch is very peaceful, kitchen is well equiped and everything works. Master bedroom is very peaceful and comfortable. Had fun playing pool too! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Little House On The Beach
Nothing beats waking up and immediately being able to see the Atlantic Ocean, great location! The kitchen has been recently redone, which was nice and spacious. The back balcony was half roofed so it was a nice place to sit away from the sun to take in the view. It was peaceful and quiet, everyone around us was respectful of everyone else’s surroundings. It was a blessing being able to take our dog with us on this trip. She felt comfortable in the house and fell in love with the beach!

Amazing VIEWS! Sound Front, Kayaks, Paddle boards
Great stay, would definitely stay there again. Convenient location a short walk to the beach access. Two bedrooms with private baths downstairs and 4 twins with half bath upstairs. Deck with hot tub and beautiful views. I would recommend.

Great House! Easy Check-in, nice neighborhood, close drive to the beach access, and all the amenities you’ll need. I would recommend this stay.

Beachside Escape w/ Heated Pool | Family- Friendly
Great place, close to the beach (5 minute walk) and excellent host. The real gem was the pool. Very convenient location to everything in Emerald Isle but also private enough that we weren’t bothered by noise or neighbors. Family friendly house that we’d definitely consider again. Thanks so much for hosting us!

Cozy *2Br Beach House* with Private Beach Access!
It's a great place, we would definitely book again. Micah is a great host. We really appreciated all of the extra games and toys. The master bed was really comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed plus extra.

The Grove | 3 min. walk to the Beach
We had a great stay at Wes’s place. It was a 5 minute easy walk to the beach. The house was the perfect size for our two families with two kids. Wes was very responsive and there was all things beach for us to use!

This was our second family vacation to this rental and we were not disappointed. we watched the dolphins while drinking coffee off the balcony. walked down to the beach every day and enjoyed the convenience of having everything just steps away.

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.
