We provide linen service for your stay supplied in your rate, including completely made beds; two bath towels per person, plus hand towels and wash cloths; bathmats for all bathrooms; and two kitchen towels.

We keep spices, dish soap, and other amenities for your use, but these may vary as other guests use them; we make a day trip once or twice a month to restock as needed. We also have beach toys and also beach chairs (only 3 right now) available for you use; these get used hard at the beach, so what's available may vary, and likewise, we make every effort to update on our day trip visits.

We welcome your dogs, up to 2 allowed with a $150 non-returnable fee per pet. Emerald Isle accepts dogs on the beach, though they must be on a leash (owner, too!). You’ll find pickup bags at the beach access so you can clean up after your pet and keep our beach clean.

Please note that this is a non-smoking property.

We’ve owned and rented this home since 2013. If you’re familiar with our home, you’ll notice numerous improvements for this season. We have new decks (Trex), we refreshed the 3rd floor bedroom with an adjustable bed and room darkening curtains, refreshed the primary-master bathroom, replaced TVs in the master-primary bedroom and first floor bedroom, re-upholstered our overstuffed “Monkey Chair” and couch cushions, replaced numerous pillows (every bed has shams as well as cased pillows), and in the kitchen updated our coffee pot with a single unit that brews both K-Cups and a regular pot, along with continuing to refresh pots and pans.

Getting the best vacation property experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are high season in the New Bern area. To get the most suitable vacation home within your budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the 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.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers often offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local New Bern visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitors guides have offers and deals for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a group leader, choose your vacation dates, and choose a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Pet Friendly 3rd Row Duplex in Spinnaker's Reach has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible on booking websites. If not, call the host before booking the vacation home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's a particular New Bern beach you are crazy about, search for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask your host about your furry family members before booking.

Tips for your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• Record any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be helpful if there is a dispute.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many issues.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a fantastic resource to find the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected everything. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
