Top Emerald Isle Hotel Reviews

Islander Hotel & Resort

Islander Hotel & Resort

8/10 Good
"Close to the beach. Parking free and convenient. Staff knowledgeable and helpful, but not overly friendly. Everything pretty good except for loud (small) children after midnight. They woke us up (thin walls?) but they finally settled down. The lights outside also kept the room really bright. To be fair, I’m a light sleeper, perhaps neither of these things would have bothered someone who doesn’t wake easily. Overall we had a good stay and I would definitely recommend for a clean, comfortable stay close to the beach."
