Shore break was exactly as described and had everything we needed for a perfect stay. Our dogs loved their time on the beach and my husband and I loved the deck overlooking the ocean. The house was in close proximity to restaurants and shopping and I truly can’t recommend it enough!!
Shorebreak was a great place to stay! We enjoyed the stunning views just steps away from the beach. The house is well stocked, perfectly decorated, and very comfortable. It was a wonderful place to relax, enjoy the sunrise and sunset. We hope to return again.
We had a wonderful stay! The host was very communicative and welcoming and the unit itself is in the perfect location and very well kept. We enjoyed watching the sunrise and sunset and the easy access right out to the beach. Could not have asked for a better visit and hope to stay there again in the future!
The house is full of thoughtful details. Very comfortable beds, lots of high-pressure hot water in the shower. The furniture is all very comfortable. The kitchen so well appointed you could host Thanksgiving as is. The sink-side filtered water faucet is great, most beach homes suffer from funny tasting water—not here! We will stay here again for sure. Can't wait!
Great little beach house! Right on the ocean. Well appointed, comfy beds, nice showers. Biggest improvement would be a nicer grille. We brought the small propane bottles but it would not stay lit.
This is an absolutely amazing cottage and beautiful location. You can sit on the deck and feel like you're sitting right on the beach. The accommodations are perfect. They absolutely thought of everything you need or want to enjoy your stay. I will be staying here again for sure.
The oceanfront view was perfect from the deck as well as inside! Kitchen was modern with great amenities. The king bed was very comfortable. Great pelican flights and diving. 3 big screen tvs. Lots of shells on the shore. Occasional shrimp boat passing with hundreds of birds trailing. Car protected under the cottage with convenient hose right by it.
fantastic property, with the most incredible ocean views and the most well equipped kitchen ever. Everything you need, and nothing you don't. Five stars, can't wait to return.
Wonderful stay at this lovely property. Amazing views, comfy beds, nicely appointed. You could hardly get closer to the beach! We pretty much had the beach to ourselves staying in early Dec and that was fine by us. And the Aquarium is a short drive up the road - check it out.
Our stay was perfect, honestly one of the best properties we have reserved through Vrbo. Exceptionally clean, well stocked property. Also the view was amazing!
Everything was awesome!! The unit was exceptionally clean, we had everything we needed, the beach was beautiful. The atmosphere was very family orientated. I loved it!! My only complaint is that I couldn’t stay another week.
I love this property. It’s my second stay. The only thing I’d complain about is the primary bath shower. The shower l head is way too high, making it hard to reach and not an ideal spray. Otherwise I can’t praise it enough overall.
ShoreBreak Right is a great place for a small family to enjoy a reasonable price for a beachfront experience. My kids are almost 5yrs and almost 3yrs and the 2 bedroom, 2 bath setup was perfect. The kids both said that the place felt like home. The house had everything we needed. The beach chairs being there was great because we didn’t have to mess with bringing them or renting. The EV charger was also amazing because we recently switched to electric. We already booked our next stay at ShoreBreak. Love it!
This was the perfect place for my husband and I. We absolutely loved the and the location was incredible! The property had everything you needed and the beach and view were phenomenal! We will most definitely be back from Henrico Virginia
This was our third visit to Shorebreak and we love this place. It is very well appointed, and tastefully decorated. The location is very convenient for day trips. We visited Airlie Gardens in Wilmington and Carrot Island in Beaufort.

About the host
Hosted by Nicole Rhodes
We are Nicole and Mike Rhodes. Growing up in the "middle" states, Mike in Kentucky and Nicole in Montana, we didn't have much opportunity to experience the ocean. As adults currently working and living in Virginia with 3 grown children close by, we’ve fallen in love with the east coast beaches; particularly North Carolina. Each year we checked out different NC beaches looking for the best one for our family, with several of those visits to beautiful Emerald Isle. It has been a dream come true to buy Shorebreak, so close to the waves, and to be able to share it with our family, friends, and other beach lovers.
Why they chose this property
We recognized right away that Shorebreak was a special property. Its unique layout provides an oceanfront experience for smaller families and couples, especially for guests that aren't looking for a 4-6 bedroom house.
We are one of, if not THE closest house to the water. The sound of the surf fills the house day and night, and the blue/green of the water brightens every room in the house. You can't get any closer to the ocean unless you're in a boat.
What makes this property unique
We love how close the house is to the ocean and that it is perfect for smaller families. The 2019 renovation makes this beach cottage modern, fresh and super clean.
