We are 30+ year annual Emerald Isle visitors and usually stay in one house but with our growing families, my brother's wife and kids and my husband and kids decided to rent Emerald Cay West. We had waited a little too long to choose a place so our options were growing limited, but we were THRILLED with this gem! Super cute interior, great space for multiple families. It's right next to the community pool and has a path that goes straight to the beach (despite being middle row) I was surprised that the listing didn't say it had such close beach access - it was a great surprise but you should be advertising this perk! We did wish there was more than 1 bath tub for the kids nighttime routine but overall couldn't be happier with this place. Spinnakers Reach made it incredibly easy to rent. We will be back!
