Islander Hotel & Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Nice property that is located on the beach with its own beach access. Restaurants and spots to enjoy drinks located within a very short walk."

Lighthouse Suites - Best Western Signature Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing experience from start to finish! The staff was incredibly friendly, kind, and welcoming. The food was good, and they even had a guest appreciation event where they were making breakfast sandwiches for everyone. Such a thoughtful touch, and everyone was so gracious. My only complaint during the entire stay was that the shower water rarely seemed to get hot. Other than that, I honestly couldn’t find anything negative to say. Wonderful staff, great hospitality, and an overall excellent experience. I would definitely stay here again!"

Walk to Beach: Emerald Isle Condo w/ Ocean View!

10/10 Excellent

"The ocean-front vista is outstanding! If you want to enjoy quick access to the beach, and a balcony and condo in which to see and hear the surf, this is your place! With an excellently equipped kitchen, and a comfy primary bedroom right on the ocean, this is your Emerald Isle rental. The owner was very communicative about all our questions and the check in information. The condo was clean, and well-equipped."

Ocean Views, Private Pool, sleeps 15, easy beach access, dog friendly

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful home for a 4 generation family vacation. Location to the beach was superb. Making easy to go back and forth if necessary. The host was very responsive from the time we booked right up to check out. The property overall was great just a few things that need attention ( landscaping and family room sectional). Will definitely come back to Emerald Isle and would consider staying at Beach Walker again"
