We've really enjoyed spending time at the Sound of the Sea property in Emerald Isle over the years, and this was our second time in this particular unit (Snoopy's Oasis). You can't beat the location of the unit within Sound of the Sea -- fantastic beachfront views, especially from the generously sized and nicely furnished balcony, and just a few steps away from the boardwalk leading down to the beach. We also *really* enjoy how you can walk to a variety of restaurants, grocery stores and other shops, even the Black Pearl mini-golf place.Like most of the units in the Sound of the Sea towers, the interior is definitely a bit dated (think popcorn ceilings, 90s-era bathrooms and slightly-beach-etched windows), and this one doesn't have an updated/renovated kitchen, but the kitchen is nicely appointed with pots and pans and utensils, and the TVs are modern and generously sized. The bedrooms are nice, with beds on the firmer side, and there are provided floor fans to help with ventilation in hotter/more humid conditions. Based on two years' experience, it's probably worth noting that some of the supplies are a bit scant -- one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, no shower soap or shampoo, no dish soap in the kitchen (or laundry detergent), and only two dishwasher pods were provided -- so it's something to be aware of as you shop for your stay.
