Waterfront vacation rentals in Emerald Isle

I've been using Airbnb a long time and this is one of the best stays I've had. Melinda and her husband are incredibly kind and generous. I had a problem with my car and they helped me out, out of the goodness of their hearts. The weather was icy and they treated the balcony and stairs for me so I wouldn't fall. Melinda made sure to check on me and to see if I was warm enough. The place is absolutely spotless clean, the bed is comfy, and the views are beautiful. I so enjoyed watching the multitude of birds on the water. I would recommend this place to anyone staying in Jacksonville. If I could give it 10 stars, I would! This is what Airbnb is all about!

We love staying at Bob’s place, it’s beautiful, great location and view and also convenient parking. Bob is the best host!

We were very impressed with the condo! Clean and updated! Beach was steps away! We really liked decor and homey feel of everything! Felt more like walking into your home than anything! Highly recommend! Lauren is extremely fast to respond and always had the best and most helpful answers! Do not hesitate! You must go!!!!

My husband and I booked this property to celebrate our 22nd anniversary, and it surpassed our expectations. The location was fabulous, in walking distance of all restaurants, bars and stores with plenty to do. The balcony with its spectacular view made for a perfect evening with a glass of wine. We will definitely be back!

We had a very short stay, but it was clean, comfortable, and great location with a view, and friendly host!

This was an amazing place to stay. although I wasn’t feeling very well due to the weather change, I was still able to enjoy myself because of the cleanliness of their Air BNB. The views from the kitchen room were great, the walk out to the end of the dock is unforgettable, and how can you not enjoy a hot tub, especially with those dang views! Mrs Maribeth was slow to respond but her and her husband were both very nice and made sure I had what I needed. I will be visiting again and recommending to many friends and family who want to visit the area! :)

A good central location to Wrightsville beach and Wilmington. Would def stay here again.

My cousin and I had a stay-cation to get away from the flow of day to day life. We had a great time and I know we were a bit noisy one of the nights dancing listening to music. Chris and Andi were very understandable. The place was beautiful and spacious for just the two of us. Perfect for a last minute weekend getaway.

Only issue we had, guys are avid fisherman, due to low tides and timing of such, we could not dock our boat at the house. Thankfully boat launch was 2 minutes down the road so it didn’t interfere with them fishing😊. Besides that perfect vacation, beautiful water, scenery, islands to tour and very relaxing time in the evenings😊

Beautiful home in a great location. Close to everything. Very quiet neighborhood. It was the perfect place to relax. I will definitely be back!

We always enjoy staying on this area. The view from the house was spectacular! We would definitely recommend staying here.

We had an absolutely fantastic time staying at Gregory's place. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The communication with Gregory was smooth and prompt, making the booking process hassle-free. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by the host via a phone call. The space was clean and beautifully decorated, providing a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The amenities provided were top-notch, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect. We enjoyed exploring the area and found plenty of great dining options nearby. Overall, our experience was nothing short of amazing. We cannot recommend Gregory's property highly enough. Thank you for such a memorable stay—we will definitely be back!

My recent stay at the Regency that exceeded our expectations! The property was exactly as described, with cozy decor and all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect—close to local attractions yet tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, which allowed for a peaceful retreat after a day of exploring. However, there was one drawback that I feel is worth mentioning: the cleaning fees. While I understand that cleaning fees are standard, I was surprised to find that, despite paying a significant amount for cleaning, guests were still asked to load the dishwasher and start a load of laundry before checking out. This felt a bit contradictory, and it made me question the value of the cleaning fee itself. I would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a charming and convenient place to stay. I can’t wait to come back!

My stay at this house was amazing! We had a wonderful time! The home is beautiful, and the water views from both the front and back were so peaceful. Beach access is less than five minutes away, making it incredibly convenient. We spent a lot of time on the back balconies, just watching the water, boats, and birds. The elevator was not only super cool but also very convenient. Every room was beautifully decorated, and the entire house was just so nice. We also ate at Lake Park Steakhouse, which was right around the corner, and the food was amazing! The steaks were cooked to perfection, and the create-your-own salad menu had so many great options. This home truly made our weekend trip even better!

We have now stayed here two years in a row. We have an annual fishing trip that this place works perfectly. It is everything that is distributed and then some. What a beautiful place to watch a sunrise and sunset. Johnna is always very responsive and super helpful. What a great host. We will be back to get some more relaxation in.

Great place to kick back and relax. Will definitely visit again.

Tara's place is great! Perfect location, easy to navigate and parking included near by. Tara was easy to communicate with and very responsive. Wonderful place to home base as you explore the area

We have already recommended MK's place to some others - however, we did warn them that the unit was up 34 stairs! There was nothing in the property description to indicate that and for a couple of 73 year olds the climb with all our stuff was too much. Thankfully we had our young strong kids along! We always appreciate being able to bring our dog along, and he, along with the rest of us, totally enjoyed the 2 private balconies. The ac was plenty cold, the dryer not so hot. Beds comfortable, covered parking a plus, and we all enjoyed the pool. Location was the best, able to walk to every place, and that made it worth the 34 stair climb. Highly recommend Hang Ten Grill for huge salads and best wings ever, Salt Fish for yummy cocktails and deliciously unique entrees ( make a reservation), the Fat Pelican for a fun experience. We had a wonderful time and can't wait to go back!

This is home away from home. We tried another place a few months ago. It was not the same. We will only stay at this condo. See you again in the near future.

This was a great place to stay! With a convenient location between the beach and many of Wilmington‘s other attractions. Gwen was very responsive and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this place.

Seeing the sunrise and sunset with the battleship is really nice. The place is so cozy and the basic necessities are complete. Aaron was friendly and very responsive, will definitely stay here again.

Mike’s place was awesome for a quick weekend trip! The view was phenomenal and loved the convenience of the location. I like staying in downtown Wilmington when I come and this spot was perfect (right by all the restaurants, coffee shops, bars, etc.) Parking is off site but it’s very manageable and Mike gives extremely clear instructions on how to get there. I also liked how the TVs had clear labels for buttons/ways to troubleshoot as needed. Bed and couch were sooo comfortable and we got great sleep each night. Would love to come back when it gets warmer out!

Great area and place to stay at for a weekend getaway! The wife and I enjoyed our stay and would go again!

We loved Jody’s place!! Everything was very comfortable and clean! The view, especially during sunset, was our favorite part.
