First off, the destination is absolutely beautiful, hands down. What truly made our trip incredibly…read moresmooth and enjoyable was the hospitality and care we received from Emerald Isle Realty during our stay. They made us feel like family. When we arrived, we were greeted by their welcoming staff and promptly gained access to our rental where we had crisp bedding, a super clean home and a nice welcome bag with everything we need to plan out our days. The property was beautiful and had all the space we needed. The views we had we're so nice too! We've rented from a few other companies in the past in other destinations, but we'll definitely keep using Emerald Isle Realty when we come back to Emerald Isle, NC. The value, hospitality and experience was great, and we're so thankful our trip was as good as it was. Thank you, Emerald Isle Realty!

"As long-time vacationers to this beautiful island, we have always been more than satisfied with…read morethe services that Emerald Isle Realty provided to make our stay the best possible beach vacation. One year, we tried other agencies because of time constraints and availability. However, we returned to E.I. Realty due to the consistency and excellent customer service provided by all the staff. This year, we stayed at Annie's Place for the third summer and have scheduled our next visit. We have never had any issues, and the owners make small improvements yearly. Throughout the years, we've noticed that all of their staff go above and beyond when we've had an issue or general inquiry. EIR has a fabulous website, and the staff is fantastic to work with. It's reassuring to know that some things don't change!"

Read between the lines when renting a Spectrum property!! They told me, after we arrived at the…read moreproperty, that their policy is NOT to provide any basic supplies like dish soap, hand soap, sponge for cleaning the kitchen, more than one kitchen towel, and no extra trash bags (in our case, we only had one trash bag for seven people for four days!). At the high price point we were at, that is completely unheard of and very unprofessional. We have stayed in many similar homes across the country and have never seen such a cheap policy. So be aware - either plan a trip to the store when you get to a Spectrum rental, or bring all your own supplies from home! I'd rather be on the beach than running to the store for basic supplies - that is why we pay the higher prices! And it is not clear on their property descriptions, at least the ones that we saw, that you need to bring all your basic supplies from home. They did come out and fix a repair that needed to be made so we appreciated their efficiency in that area, and thus the reason for the added star.

216 East Boardwalk location. The locality of this beach house was great. Very close and easy access…read moreto the beach. The house itself needs some TLC. Make sure you have enough Data because wifi connection is awful. The furniture is uncomfortable. Broken couches and all. The doors of the different rooms didn't shut well. Air conditioning worked well downstairs but upstairs was pretty warm.Had two remodeled bathrooms which were nice. Needs new refrigerator. Washer and dryer were brand new and worked well. Needs comfortable outside furniture. Parking could be a problem if you have more than two cars. I don't recommend this place unless they make such changes.

The house and our room were absolutely wonderful!! Very very comfortable and very very quiet. It was only one block from Front street and we walked everywhere right from the Inn. The breakfast in the morning were absolutely incredible, the best part to start the day with!. I can't say enough about our stay other than we have stayed in many many bed-and-breakfast and this is in our top two or three. Without question we are planning on coming back for our anniversary. Thank you to Sam and Alura for the absolutely wonderful time!
