Beach Walker Did Not Disappoint

Great house, great location, great owners! We had some internet issues after a big storm on our first night there. Rob was there right away to get it resolved. He even stayed to clean the storm debris out of the pool! Would definitely go back!! 10/10 recommend!!

Huge house great location

Very large house with lots of beds. Really great location - kids all walked themselves to mini golf, ice cream and shopping. House was clean and good amount of furniture. Only negative is the extras were spare. Definitely felt like the owner doesn’t ever stay there themselves. No blankets for couch or any of the beds. No extra pillows, not even enough for all the mattresses. Missing some utensils in the kitchen. Kids main issue was the pool wasn’t heated! Overall a great place.

Family Vacation

The house was just as described and had more than enough room for the 5 of us. We loved being able to bring our dog too. We loved the location being so close to the beach. It was our first time to the Island and will definitely be back. We spent most of our exploring the surrounding towns and many of the hiking trails. We did not have any problems, but the hosts welcomed us and made sure we knew we could contact them if we did. It was a great family vacation with many memories made. Thanks

Peaceful Retreat

Overall we had a good stay. The home was well stocked with cookwear. There was a keurig for coffee and everything was pretty close by. My mom has been going through a pretty rough battle with cancer and this last year has been very difficult for my family. The ocean was just what she needed and actually got her to walk a bit while we were there. Generally we look for properties that allow animals because I have a service animal. I did not disclose this information bc she's not a pet and not a requirement by VRBO but we paid a fee after the fact. We tried washing linens while we were there but the dryer seemed to take too long to dry. We did stay for an extended period, for shorter stays I'm sure this wouldn't be an issue. We had 2 roaches, I think they're called Palmetto bugs down south and appear to be common in the area so I don't think it was an issue with the home, just that time of year. It was not a big enough issue that we felt the need to report it to the owners. The owners were responsive and easy to get ahold of. We got charged some fees after the fact. After everything that has gone on in the last year with my mom's health, it wasn't something worth disputing. Hindsight we'll make sure to alert people we are bringing a service animal. We really just needed a break from life and this place provided the perfect space. The dolphins we saw almost everyday really were the icing on the cake.

Beach Walker

House was as advertised. Did get to read through some of the others comments that stayed and you are aware of the shower pressure already. Maybe a few of them need replacing. The big take away for me is pots and pans in the house need updating and had to keep adjusting thermostat to stay comfortable. On the positive side the house was very clean and smelled good on arrival.

Great accommodations!

Beach Walker is our 'go to' location at Emerald Isle. Well maintained, great communication and amenities - I couldn't always say that about rental through other companies. I never thought we'd rent a place with a pool (after all the ocean is right there) but grandkids changed all that and it's been great.

Excellent view - unobstructed! Truly a “Beach Walker” as access is down two properties to the right directly to the beach! Pool is beautiful! Hosts were responsive and great! Only thing - make sure you bring your own beach chairs!!!!! House had a total of 5 of which 2 were broken and one rusted out! Great location grocery store across the street and several great indoor outdoor places to each drink and listen to live music!

Spring Break Trip

This house was perfect for our family spring break! The communication and support since the day we booked up until arrival was wonderful. Great location, view and space inside the home. Even with the colder weather there so so much to do around the house other than just the beach. Would definitely return! Thanks so much.
