We had a wonderful stay. It was clean, inviting, and had everything we needed. Appreciated all the beach extras that were available to use in storage. Great food and everyone we meet is always warm and welcoming.
We had a great time. The house was clean and comfortable. It had a well appointed kitchen, washer/dryer and easy access to the beach and both pools. Lots of wildlife around as well.
The room was situated perfect with an amazing ocean view! Clean and spacious Condo with great amenities and the additional boogie boards in storage room were a hit. Thank you for giving our family the opportunity to Enjoy Your Condo.
This is a fabulous spot! The listing does not do justice to the amazing ocean views from each floor. The beach is so close and there are unobstructed views from the decks and the sound of the waves at night. One of the cleanest properties I’ve been in. Not heavily used at all. Really lovely!
Condo is in a good location and has a good layout. We were given the wrong code and wrong WiFi info, had to ask if there were any beach chairs, etc and there are no beach towels. Place needs a major cleaning especially the kitchen.
Property was everything as expected and more! Only issue was the outside lights were out the entire stay and 3rd floor deck had no seating Other than that the pool was perfect for those non-beach days and the access to the beach was fantastic! OVERALL most enjoyable week!
We chose Emerald Isle Beach for our destination as we were attending the Marine Air Base at Cherry Point for the 2024 Air Show. We were pleasantly surprised and enjoyed the condo very much.
Only thing to recommend is adding a hair dryer for guests.
We went for the week of July 4th. We had a great stay. The townhouse was close to both pools and a short walk to the beach. You can see the ocean from both balconies. There a first floor storage for your beach stuff. It’s close to movies, restaurants, and grocery stores. The pool areas could use some updating, maybe some decoration, but they were both clean. The balcony and walkway area could really use some work. I would stay there again for sure. The host was also very responsive!
Very clean, location centralized and close to beach. Only issue we had was internet service was poor…very slow but all in all very nice accommodations.
The condo was perfect for our 3rd visit to Emerald Isle. We spent most of the time on the beach and with family, but the time spent at the place was comfortable and had everything we needed. Great view of the ocean from the decks and short walk to the beach. Plus very close to stores when we needed to replenish supplies. Toes in the Sand is a great place for a small family to stay on Emerald Isle!
Awesome location, easy beach access. Unfortunately, both pools were closed during our stay. Check in instructions were a little scrambled but we were able to get in without issue. Place was clean and whole family slept well (2 adults and 3 kids under 10). Thanks for a great stay!

Just ok
The place was ok, but there were a number of things that were subpar. The beds were really soft. The mattress in the sofa sleeping was nonexistent. Some of the kitchen ware was rusty. There was dirt, rust or maybe even mold around the air vents in the living room.
Very easy walk to the uncrowded beach. The views from both decks was great. We watched sunset every night. Close to grocery store, shopping and restaurants. The property manager was very attentive. She came right out and let us in after we locked the key in the room! The unit was very well equipped and included a beach umbrella and beach chairs.
Stayed here with my husband and three young kids the last week of July. The unit was very clean, plenty of towels provided, and the space/layout was perfect for us. (I’d recommend bringing a baby gate if you have small children.) The area was quiet, the kids loved the pool, and the beach was a short walk away and we never had trouble finding a spot to set up our shade. The kitchen could have been stocked a little better but we easily made it work!
All in all it was a nice stay. We knew going in the unit didn't have some of things we usually like, but it was a late reservation and was all we could fine. The unit lacked basic amenities like cleaning products, no vacuum, no iron and ironing board, no blow dryer. Kitchen had just enough but could use more in there. The spiral staircase I could have done without. It was a bear hauling luggage up and down that staircase. The bathrooms where small, and only having one shower to share was an issue at times. I would stay in the unit again, but not with a family. Location was great and close to allot of stuff we needed. Short walk to the beach.

The property inside is nice, however, I would not recommend to bring more than two adults as there is only one full bath. Has a great view of the beach and the property. Giving it two stars as we had a number of issues with the property; 1) The key fab and the key code provided by the owner did not work and was extremely frustrating when arriving as it is a gated community. Held the line for a number of cars as we did not have a way to get in. After reaching out to the owner, another code was provided, however, extremely unlikely the fab worked as it was duct taped and had damage to it. 2) Major issue for our safety and our property while on the premise as the two sliding glass doors do not lock. While it is on the second floor, safety based on the contract should be met to the fullest extent. Based on this, the property is negligent in meeting this and we had to find ways to secure our belongings as we were uncomfortable knowing doors did not lock. While in the end, we had a nice vacation at Emerald Isle, it was frustrating that it began with all of these hiccups at this property.
Our stay at 209 Sound of the Sea was comfortable, relaxing, and so very enjoyable. The unit was clean upon our arrival. It was conveniently located near the beach, and we had an ocean view from the deck. It's also close to restaurants and shopping. The kitchen was well-stocked and we ate in for breakfast, lunch and several evenings. I had some questions prior to our arrival, and the owner was quick to reply. Overall, it was a lovely place. We highly recommend it!
A wonderful home away from home - great location with a wonderful view of the water. We enjoyed relaxing with a cool breeze on both balconies. Everything was as described in the listing. We look forward to coming back next year.
My husband and I stayed here for our babymoon and we had a great experience! It was conveniently located, close to the beach, clean and quiet, provided beach accessories, and we even received a special gift from the property manager. We will definitely be coming here again!
The property is well kept and clean. Both bedrooms have plenty of room and the whole complex is quite attractive as well ass in a great location. The property manager was helpful and check in and out process seamless with abundant information. We would stay again for sure.
