Fantastic place!
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and now regret that we didn’t stay longer. The condo was perfect for my wife and me. It was immaculately clean and the decor was very cheerful and welcoming. The view from the balcony was sublime. Our host provided very clear instructions so we had no questions whatsoever. The entire complex was so quiet and peaceful. It’s difficult to find a beachfront property for only two people. Many restaurants and shops nearby for those who want to wander. We’re looking forward to returning!

Great property/unit
This listing was very well organized. The view was wonderful and had easy beach access. The unit was very clean and comfortable. The check in process was very organized, but if you stay here please read theough the entire set of directions. We did not do this because we were in a rush to get to a wedding. A couple of pages down it mentions 2 very important pieces of information. 1 was that you actually pick up your key and parking passes at the owner's house, not on the property. 2 you need to bring toilet paper. I must reiterate that the stay was very good, the unit and property are great, but fir the welcome check in email it would be easier to start with "be sure to read the whole packet", followed by the owner's address and explanation about picking up the pouch with your check in material, then the address of the property for those who use gps. That is a tiny detail, the stay was very good.

Paradise on Emerald Isle
Jean's place is immaculate! It has clearly very recently been renovated, and everything inside it beautiful. (The deck is also newly replaced.) Picking up the keys/access cards, etc. from Jean's house is easy, and she is very responsive to communications. Her instructions could not be more detailed and clear. We had everything we needed to cook a few meals. The bed sheets were among the softest we have used, and the bed was comfortable. More than once, I said I want to come back again soon!

Fantastic stay in Jackpot
Was supposed to stay in a 1 bedroom but it had maintenance issues and Jean put us in her 2 bedroom, Jackpot luckily. It was the cleanest, nicest condo we have stayed in. The view was the best. Right on the beach on the 3rd floor. Watching and hearing the waves, watched the birds, saw dolphins. In this area you cannot get any closer to the beach. Has beach access and easily walk to shopping. Emerald Isle is small so stores and shopping a little spread out but can still walk. People drive golf carts around. The town is very laid back and super clean. Never felt uncomfortable. Took a side trip to New Bern which we highly recommend. Take the trolley tour. So much history in that town. Stay here you will not regret it. Best VRBO we have stayed in.

Enjoyed our stay, very clean! Nice view of ocean, great location. Lots of restaurants and shopping close by. Well equipped kitchen. We were there during the week in March and it was very quiet. We did notice more activity on Thursday night and Friday( louder neighbors) We did have to pick up keys and drop them off at owners, this was not too far out ofthe way. Just an extra step in the check in / out process! It is a walk to take garbage and recycling out. Elevator in working condition, just a little slow made me slightly nervous. Beach was easily accessible and very clean, great shell collecting.

From the minute I hit “submit” to book this beautiful place, I knew it was going to be a great experience. The host is the best there is. She was lightening fast responsive, organized, crazy informative (the check in/out process was stellar) and a wonderful, kind, sweet person. The condo was immaculate, fully stocked kitchen, super comfortable bed, and the view off this top floor condo is spectacular! I knew this was the 4th condo back so I wasn’t sure how the view was going to be, but it was off the chain! I spent a ton of time out there. We didn’t want to leave. We will be back soon. Many thanks to Jean (host) for sharing this wonderful piece of bliss.
