Spring Break

Wonderful first time visiting Emerald Isle! This house was perfect! Walkway to ocean a few steps away. Nice deck to sit and listen to the ocean. My son fished at the shore and caught a variety of fish. House very clean, updated, spacious open kitchen and living room. Host communicated well and quickly.

Relaxing, great location and great sunrises

A fun time at St Pattys celebration with hubby in Emerad Isle, N.C. .Surf and Sounds where we stayed in EI was clean, close to the beach and dog friendly. We cooked great meals at Surf and Sounds, met folks at Village Market Resteraunt or met people doing dog walks or I meet people at the Gymn at Cape Cateret . I felt safe during a storm and the owner kept up with me on my visit. I would recommend a visit to Surf and Sounds . I relaxed viewing sunrises and running with my dog at the beach and sunets ( at the free boat ramp. Plus sleeping was amazing since I heard waves.

Repeat Visitor

We have stayed in this beach house for three years straight and plan to be back next year. The location is perfect. The beach is just steps away. You have quick access to Emerald Isle, Atlantic Beach, Beaufort, Swansboro, and more. We visited the aquarium this year and really enjoyed it.

Accurate Name for this s place

We enjoyed our stay at Surf Sounds Almost Oceanfront. The host was prompt to respond when messaged. Home was clean and well updated. Very close to being ocean front as you can see and hear the ocean while drinking your morning brew from front porch. Very convenient beach access. We would stay here again.

Quick getaway weekend

This is the 2nd time we have stayed here. Last year we stayed in the West Unit, this time it was the East. Everything was awesome! It is exactly as advertised and the distance to the beach was perfect. It was easy to walk to the beach every morning to see the sunrise. Can't wait to come back.

As close to beach front as you can get without being beachfront

This place was everything it was described as and so much more! Centrally located to everything in Emerald Isle, 40 minutes away from Morehead City and Atlantic beach, very clean, everything updated and well maintained! You can't get more beach front without being beach front than this house. 20 feet from the front steps is the ramp that takes you to the ocean. You can see the waves while standing on the front porch and can feel the salt water hit your face if the breeze is just right. The owners were very helpful and very quick to respond to any questions we had prior to and during our trip. This place is great for a small family or a couple with no kids but a four legged friend who likes to tag along. The only negative thing I can even think of is that the ceiling fan in the master bedroom makes a little noise from time to time if it's on high and the master bedroom has a queen sized bed and not a king, but that is a personal thing and in no way affected our trip. I could keep going on but I'll end it here. We will definitely be back in the very near future1

Perfect location

This is the second year we have stayed in this house and we will be back again next year. The front porch and easy access to the beach put it at the top of my list. It’s close to the shops and restaurants in Emerald Isle. The outdoor shower is awesome when you come in off the beach. It’s quiet and there is no traffic.
