Starry Nights is one the exclusive Dolphin Ridge Subdivision homes on the island! If you are wishing for a perfect place to spend your family vacation, Starry Nights is just the house for you. Dolphin Ridge is a mix of permanent resident homes, second homes and rental homes. Not a lot of loud noise and late nights. We built the home for personal use and comfort, and did all the upgrades and toys! We love staying here when ever guests are away. Best part...listen to the surf from the front porches and swing.
This 4-Bedroom, 5-Bath, 3600 square feet. Oceanside Home offers as many extras as there are stars in the sky! From the Private 14 x 20 solar heated Pool (80 degrees om May1), Hot Tub and 50" Projection HDTV satellite and wireless High Speed Internet. The ground level Game Room has a 6-in-1 Game Table a futon, bunk beds and another 50" tv with sofa and love seat. The perfect kids retreat.
What more could you wish for in a vacation rental!
Starry Nights is located in the quite subdivision of Dolphin Ridge. With the seclusion the neighborhood offers, you can enjoy the breath-taking stars that are sprinkled across the night sky from your back deck. There is a golf cart provided at no charge to help take all the chairs and "stuff" to the beach (additional $500 refundable security deposit, but no fee for usage). 1 or 2 minute drive to the beach on the golf cart, or a 5 minute walk from the house. The golf cart really makes getting beach stuff and guests to the ocean a breeze! The house is "5th" row, which means it is about 8 houses from the boardwalk and sand.
Home Rents Sunday to Sunday in the Summer season to allow for travel on Saturdays. 4 day minimum rentals in off season due to cleaning fees. Call or email with any questions. Rental fees are all inclusive.
All the furniture is upscale Lexington and Stanley brands.
Linens, Towels, and cleaning service is provide at no charge. Beds will be made prior to arrival. We have some beach towels that are left for use by guests, but bring your own. We also have some buggie boards and beach toys as well for your use. We do not have beach chairs, but they are easily purchased here, or there is a service that will rent them to you.

Our stay in this home was one of the best vacations we have ever had. We absolutely loved the neighborhood and quick drive to really everywhere you need to go. I cannot say enough about the ease of the floor plan and the beautiful decor. My 5 yr old and his "Nanoo" loved watching movies down in the big game room. There is a bathroom in the gameroom which makes changes for the hot tub or pool easy for everyone. I think the big open floor plan in the living room and kitchen makes cooking and eating together alot of fun. Evening golf cart rides (even in the rain) were fun and we saw lots of deer. My 3 yr old would just scream with delight when we took the "secret cart path" coming in from a golf cart ride !! Such fun memories. The warm sun on a chilly morning from the front porch with your cup of coffee was perfect. The privacy in the back yard around the pool is unbelievable. Its just so quaint and peaceful. One day while having lunch by the pool there were 3 deer right across the fence and me being there didnt scare them away. I was amazed. This house made our vacation. My husband had just finished 4 years of University and we finally got to go on a vacation that we hadnt been able to take in so long bc of school. It was such a treat. Theres plenty of room and plenty of places to get away if you wanted a minute to yourself. This house also had everything you would need. It has a well stocked kitchen with everything you can think of. Last but certainly not least was the master bedroom. It seems so far away from everyone else and is so beautiful. I absolutely loved it ! This is a great vacation home and Emerald Isle is now our favorite beach. It was our first time visiting and we just loved it.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.

Had a wonderful week in Emerald Isle. House was perfect for 3 families, each with one child. Kids ranged in age from 2-5. House was clean and ready to use at promised time. Owner was very helpful and involved with rental process. Beach was great and water was warmer than we expected. Pool was a must with the kids. Golf cart was fun for the kids and a huge help with shuttling to the beach. House location was very centrally located to all shops and restaurants. We would love to return to Emerald Isle and would stay at this home again.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, families with young children, sightseeing.

This was our first trip to Emerald Isle, although we came with 2 other families that are the bes of friends & have been here before (7 adults & 7 children). Starry Nights and Emerald Isle has made this week a vacation to remember and a place that we would love to come back to. The kids were always on the go and there was always something to do that was enjoyable for them as well as the adults (brings the kid out of you). There is nothing like a week of good food, good drinks, great entertainment, and friends that you can call family. Thanks for allowing us these memories!!Did you find this review helpful?

We came back to Starry Nights this year and brought our family because we enjoyed it so much last summer. We traveled from PA, MD, and FL. Our visit was very enjoyable and relaxing. With 10 adults and 5 children under the age of 8, it made our week a bit challenging.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

We got to spend a whole week in a love two million dollar house! We were a group of 15 relatives in three generations. This is our second visit -- maybe our last, but we enjoyed every minute. We are pampered and rested and ready for another year.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

This was our family's first trip to Emerald Isle and all 8 of us enjoyed our stay here in this beautiful home. We had 7 days of sunny weather relaxing at the beach, by the pool & hot tub. Only problem we had was a scare one evening at 11pm when the alarm went off outside at the septic. Thank you for sharing your home.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

Your beautiful home was a perfect fit for our family (8 adults & 3 children under age 5). Some of our favorite things were the pool, the hot tub, & the spacious kitchen. The kids especially enjoyed seeing the deer & the geese, while riding in the golf cart to & from the beach. Thank you so much for such a wonderful stay in your lovely home!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

About the owner: Owner of Starry Nights, a great beach retreat!
Why the Owner Chose Emerald Isle:
Love the beach and all the wildlife! Emerald Isle is the best beach in NC (in our opinion). Dolphin Ridge is the best section of the beach (again...you know who's opinion). Great balance of upscale, quiet, beach home, and party home. We look forward to coming whenever there isn't a guest at the home.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
only a couple blocks from the beach. Perfect place to unwind and get away from the hectic pace. There are no words we can share with you that describes the feeling of coming off the mainland, driving over the bridge to the island and seeing the water and island. All the daily troubles and issues fade away.
