Very clean duplex next to the beach

Third Time was as Good as the First

We love Surf Sounds. Our third stay and it was perfect as always. We shared the house with our kids and grandkids. A great family vacation. Always clean and well equipped. Close to the beach, on street with no traffic. The hosts were very easy to reach and responsive.

In denial we had to leave Emerald Isle!

This was a wonderful rental property. The unit is exactly as advertised, and the Moore's thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. The home was super clean upon arrival. The location is fantastic with the beach access so close. We appreciated that bed linens and bath towels were included. We enjoyed riding bikes on Ocean Drive and on the path on the main road. We highly recommend this property and look forward to returning to the Crystal Coast!

Wonderful Time

My mom and I were just absolutely in love with your property as soon as we walked in the door! The access to the beach is amazing and made it so easy to setup everything without having to worry about making several trips! The neighborhood is very nice and family friendly! We will definitely have to come back soon! Thank you so very much.

Perfection!

This is my second stay and won’t be my last. The property provides easy access (and views!) to the beach. The house is very comfortable and has all the comforts you need while on vacation. I love staying here - it feels like home, but also feels like a a vacation oasis. The Moore’s make the entire process so easy and accessible. Always a great experience . . . except the party where your vacation has to end. ;)

A true “home away from home”

This lovely home was the perfect place for our trip to beautiful Emerald Island. The owners have gone overboard by supplying everything you could possibly need while away from your own home. The location was also great, it was quiet, peaceful and relaxing. We hope to rent it again in the near future.
