About the host
Hosted by Melissa Griffin
Welcome to Tailz Down our Guest Suite! We purchased this property because of its close walk to the beach and its located at our favorite place The Point. My husband and I have 3 children and 1 grandchild. We live above Taiz Down in Finz Up. I work from home as a travel agent and a caterer. I can offer you concierge service from picking up groceries for you to delivering full meals. We offer a golf cart rental, bicycle rentals and we can provide you with beach chairs and umbrella upon request.
Why they chose this property
We have been visiting Emerald Isle for over 30 years and have decided to make it our home in 2021.
What makes this property unique
We are a short walk to the beach access, close to beach driving access, channel views and the best sunsets on the island are right out the front door. Quiet area where you can ride bikes, walk or just sit in one of our 2 porch swings and relax.
