Painless walk to the beach! See the ocean from 2 levels of front balconies! Sensational sunset vistas on a peaceful cul-de-sac. Great for families - close to activities - golf, mini golf, Salty Pirate summer water park for kids, and the Growler for the adults ;-)

This 4-bedroom unit has pretty ocean vistas, a walk to the beach access, a peaceful street, and a 1/2 block walk to Beach Access. Close to shopping, coffee stores, grocery stores, waterpark, or the trendy Growler Pub, mini-golf, and more. In short, the ideal, worry-complimentary vacation spot. Linens, towels, and kitchen basics, shower basics are ALL included -no additional costs!

We want your family to have a great, fun beach vacation on Emerald Isle and come back next year. We've got beach chairs, a cart, a shade nija canopy and a BBQ grille for you to use. Various beach toys, plus washer/dryer, outdoor shower....

Our comfortable beach home is 100 yards away from access to a peaceful beach on a peaceful cul-de-sac. Complete decks on both floors with plenty of seating and ocean vistas/sea and hear the waves. 4 bed/3 baths in ideal shape - 2 queen bedrooms with ocean view, king bedroom with en suite bathroom, and 2 twins downstairs mean there's room for everybody. High-speed internet (30 Down/5 up) and all TVs have Roku attached.

New (2025) crossover to the uncrowded Emerald Isle beach. This little group of homes has its own public entrance to the beach with NO car parking (golf carts are ok). The Western Ocean Access beach is an simple walk to the right if you want a life-guarded beach, another coffee shop, a pizza place, and more.

Absolutely No Smoking or family pets.

Covered parking for 1-2 cars plus a sizable driveway with ample room for parking.
Washer/dryer and propane grille are available.
There is a doorbell cam for package safety and security. We can turn it off during your stay or leave it on - whichever makes you the most comfortable.

Beach!
We have a collection of beach chairs, a cart, “floaty things”, some sand toys, 3 sit-on-top kayaks, and a shade awning for everybody to share. Things break or get added as the season goes on, so you never know what treasure in in the "Beach Box."
Beach Access: There is public beach access 1/2 a block away. Lifeguarded beach is just to the right by the Western Ocean access beach once you hit the sand, or stay in the uncrowded section immediately over the walkway.
Fishing: The Bogue Inlet Fishing Pier is a 1.6-mile drive or a 1-mile walk on the beach to the east. Surf fishing is fashionable especially when the beaches are peaceful.
Do keep an eye out for rip tides on any North Carolina beach.
Sand! Our cleaning team works hard, but please know that the wind and wet toes bring sand everywhere. Rinse your feet with the hose, or use the outdoor shower!
Kayak tours/rental and a surf shop are also within walking distance just at the entrance to our street.

Biking & Walking
Emerald Isle is bicycle-friendly with bicycle paths along the major roads and painless bicycle rental if you cannot bring your own. Bicycle or walk to the Emerald Plantation Shopping or Food Lion each morning to pick up a coffee or a treat. It's less than a mile away.
You can walk effortlessly to the pier via the beach (about a mile away). Emerald Isle Woods Park is also about a mile away and has a pretty view of the sound at sunset, a fishing pier, frisbee golf and walking trails.
Theres a great playground just down the road near the EI Community Center as well.

Family Fun Activities: Right around the corner you'll find
Fun World go-carts & amusements, Salty Pirate waterpark, Emerald Forest Mini-Golf – all very close. Check for hours.
Hot Wax Surf and Paddle Sports Units about half a mile away has units available.
Golfin’ Dolphin is across the bridge and down Rt 58 ( 3 ½ miles total) - mini golf, sky trail, go-karts, more
Emerald Isle Woods Park – down Coast Guard Lane – disc golf, woodsy hiking trail, gorgeous sunsets from the intercoastal pier.
Pine Knoll Shores Aquarium is located about 15 miles away

Eateries in the Emerald Plantation Shopping Center:
Burger place (Hwy 55 Burger, Shakes, and Fries)
Pizza place (Michelangelo’s). Saturday nighttime is completely jammed. Telephone far in advance!
American-style restaurant --Rucker Johns -everybody can find something here, and it gets good reviews

Breakfast at the Beach!
Giovani's Brooklyn Bagels - till 1pm - fresh yummy, in the back of Emerald Isle Plaza
Flip Flops Donuts - till 12 - made right on site, amazingly good independent donut shop
Village Market - breakfast and lunch, sundries, counter service. Popular
Trading Post - want something more fancy? Breakfast/brunch, lunch, dinner. Check the menu, and go early, it is popular!
Date nighttime? Caribsea is just off the main road , and there are tons of choices in Swansboro, many with vistas of the river out to the ocean.

Food/Grocery: Food Lion and Publix in the close by (0.6 miles, an 11-min. walk) Emerald Plantation Shopping Center. The prices are reasonable. Note that they are swamped on Saturday when new people arrive. And all those folks can quickly empty the fresh veggies and fruit.
Lowes Foods (3.2 miles, 11 min drive) - A trip across the bridge; usually not necessary. They will shop for you and do delivery, however.
Piggly Wiggly (7 miles and 12 mins. away from the home): A convenient stop on the way in if you are coming in from Jacksonville. If you are coming in on a Saturday or Sunday it'll be much less busy.

Shopping: There is plenty of shopping on Emerald Isle and right at the Emerald Plantation Shopping Center with beach wear, book store, jewelry, movie theater... Not to mention beach “superstores” like Waves, etc.

We need 2 more reviews this season to reset the "Premier" ranking - Vacation Rental By Owner changed the time window !

Closest drug store: CVS Pharmacy - Photo too (1.1 miles, 3 min drive)

Check-in/check-out: Standard Check-In time is 4 pm and check-out time is 10 am.

Beach Towels: Please bring beach towels. There isn't time to turn around the home for the next guest and clean beach towels.

Food in the House: We've tried to stock the kitchen with necessary silverware and cookware. If anything is missing, please tell us so we can address the problem. You will also find standard spices, common items (oil), and some standard refrigerator stuff.

There should be coffee pods for the first morning, and a Mr Coffee as well. And tea bags!

Thus you will find some items in the refrigerator. These items are left because when we have rented, we have been frustrated that cooking is hard without them and we end up doing additional runs to the grocery store. Please feel complimentary to use anything you find. If you have food you don't want to bring home and won't spoil in the next few weeks, feel complimentary to leave it. (We clean out and refresh these items each summer, don't worry).

Next Door: Since this is a duplex we ask that folks be respectful of the families that are renting the other side of the home and our co-owner expects the same of their families.

Booking the best New Bern rental home experience:

When to book & When to go:

  • June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Emerald Isle. To get the best value, shift your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer excellent weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
  • In the New Bern area, The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
  • Some owners offer promotional rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
  • Booking websites usually offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
  • Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area travel guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning and choosing the perfect New Bern rental home:

  • Select dates and maximum budget.
  • Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Easy Beach Access, Ocean View! 5 night stays, lower price has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
  • Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available online. Otherwise, call the property manager before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to work out what is optimal for your trip.
  • If there's an individual New Bern beach you love, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
  • Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
  • Some rentals allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

  • Be sure you get the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
  • Document any damages to the property at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if a dispute arises.
  • Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
  • Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
  • Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect your property!
  • At departure, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
  • Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on great reviews to stimulate new bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
