Find your happy place in this captivating 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom Emerald Isle beach home, where you and up to 9 of your closest family/friends can lounge in style by the glorious saltwater pool, or take a walk down the private neighborhood road to the pristine white-sand shores of Emerald Isle beach. Adorned with gorgeous landscaping and a new heated saltwater pool, this entirely refreshed and upgraded Emerald Isle home is the ideal place for couples, families, and modest groups seeking a fun, calming vacation in a calming Emerald Isle neighborhood.

As you pull into the driveway, the beauty of this impeccably well-kept classic beach bungalow will immediately impress you. Before you climb the deck stairs to the main level, do yourself a favor and stop for a moment to take in the opulent, heated pool. When you eventually enter the home, you will be greeted by a roomy entry area, well-outfitted kitchen with stone countertops and stainless steel appliances to your left, and the open dining room straight ahead leading into a comfortable living area with a intelligent tv and cozy couch bed. Just off of the living room is a extravagant master suite equipped with an elegant king-size bed and en suite bath. If you instead pass through the kitchen, you will encounter a cozy hallway leading to a second bedroom with a queen-size bed, the laundry room with washer and dryer, and a second private bath.

Walk up the stairs, and you will come to two additional bedrooms and a third full bathroom. To your left is a comfortable bedroom with a full-size bed, private balcony, and a impressive view of the sand dunes that rest between the neighborhood and the beach. Leave your windows open at nighttime and fall asleep to the sounds of the crashing waves! On the other end of the upstairs is a cheerful bedroom with two twin beds that are ideal for any singles or kids in your group.

Back on the main level, grab your favorite book or drink (or both!) and head for some peaceful time on the screened-in porch, or mosey on down to the backyard for some outdoor games, or grille some juicy steaks or fresh seafood on the charcoal grille.

No matter where you are on the property, the relaxing ambiance and attention to detail are sure to leave a lasting impression. Don't be surprised when you find yourself already planning next year's return trip!

*ULTRA CLEAN GUARANTEE: We want guests to book with the assurance that the home will be Ultra Clean when they arrive. That's why we offer the Ultra Clean Guarantee backed by Butler Cleaning Services. When a guest checks in, we guarantee that the home will be ideally clean to their liking or we will gladly send our cleaning team out to the home to remedy the situation.

*OPTIONAL POOL HEATER: Guests have the OPTION to request that the pool heater be turned on during their stay. Please note that the availability of the pool heater is completely weather dependent. The pool heater is only available when the heater can effectively maintain the pool at a comfortable temperature (minimum water temperature of 80 degrees), which is when air temperatures are consistently at or above roughly 60 degrees (including overnight). Most years, this means that the heater is available from around mid-April until Mid-October (weather dependent). Because use of the pool heater is an optional feature, refunds will not be supplied if the pool heater is unavailable during a Guest’s stay for any reason (e.g., cooler weather, maintenance, etc.).

NOTE ABOUT PARTIES, LARGE GATHERINGS & EXCESSIVE NOISE: Please also note that if you are looking for a location to host a event or loud gathering, this is definitely NOT the place for you. We have an extraordinary association of neighbors who work collectively to maintain the beauty and tranquility of the neighborhood. In an effort to do our part, we have a strict "no events" policy, and the safety and tranquility of our guests and neighborhood are ensured by exterior security cameras and a Minut noise monitoring device that will immediately alert us when excessive noise levels are detected. Any guest who hosts, or attempts to host, an unauthorized gathering will be subject to immediate eviction without refund and a $500 fine (withheld from their security deposit). However, if relaxation, rejuvenation, and quality time with family and friends is what you are looking for, you will not find a more ideal setting in all of Emerald Isle!

How to book the best Morehead City vacation rental experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• The sooner you can book, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are reserved early. Reserving your rental six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To book the best vacation home within budget, we highly recommend reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Morehead City restaurants and activities.
• Some property managers offer discounts for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Morehead City visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Make a plan and choose a perfect Morehead City vacation home:

• Select vacation week and spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Peaceful Emerald Isle Beach House • New Heated Pool • King Suite • Walk 2 Beach has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available online. If not, contact the property management company before you reserve the rental. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• If there's an individual Morehead City destination you love, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you're gone! Don't let thieves spoil your vacation.
• To make certain damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. E-mail the property manager right away to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Re-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
