We had a wonderful experience at this home. The proximity to the beach, pier, and to several restaurants was unbeatable. The home had everything we needed and then some. The views from the home were the best we’ve ever had at a beach property. Communication with Terry was excellent and easy. We would love to return and will be recommending this stay to others!

Absolutely Amazing Vacation Home

I would like to say that we had an amazing time on our trip. A big part of this was due to the beautiful, spacious and comfortable vacation home we were blessed to find! When I say immaculate, it just doesn’t do it justice! This property was spotless and so well equipped that they simply thought of EVERYTHING! The hosts were fantastic, so kind and thoughtful! We’ll definitely be going back!

Paradise

Beautiful, modern home in a magnificent oceanfront property! Mere steps from the white sand of Emerald Isle’s Crystal Coast! Walking distance to superb eateries and shopping! My family greatly enjoyed “Are We There Yet” from being gathered around the gorgeous diningroom table playing games provided by the host, Terry; enjoying S’mores from the grill, and being gathered on the deck to take in the picturesque views of the ocean’s tide. The home is beautifully maintained and fully stocked with everything your heart could desire! Need shampoo, conditioner, or body-wash? Host Terry has gone above and beyond to fulfill your desires! I have been coming to EI for over 20 years, and his home and thoughtfulness is unparalleled! We will definitely be back! Loved every minute of our stay!

Thanksgiving on the beach!

We brought our immediate family, which was 10 of us ,to stay here for the week of Thanksgiving. I couldn’t even think of anything that wasn’t perfect. The location of the place was perfect, the rooms perfect ,the kitchen utensils, and plates and everything you need for a beautiful Thanksgiving table was there and perfect. I cannot thank them enough for giving us such a wonderful time at Thanksgiving on theBeach. My 8 yr old grandson said he had never stayed in a mansion before and he loved it. Thanks again and Happy Holidays from the Pearsons

First Timers

Frequent vacation renters in the EI area: AWTY was fantastic and felt like a true home away from home. Very comfortably furnished and equipped inside and out. The TVs were large and easy to operate. We've stayed at the adjoining Double D many times with our dog but with no pet this trip, AWTY truly felt like an upgrade. Highly recommend for a very nice place convenient to all of EI.

Very impressive property

We have stayed at several beach house rentals and Terry’s property far exceeded all of them. The customer service was top notch. Items that impressed us: rental was ready 3 hours early, cleanliness was impeccable, kitchen stock and quality of items were wonderful and our favorite part was that there was ample balcony seating that included high top chairs and table. The location of the house is lovely being close to everything you need but the beach in front of the house isn’t crowded at all since it isn’t too close to public access, etc. Highly recommend!

Truly wonderful

I won't bore you by repeating all the other 5-star reviews, which cover the amenities so well. Read them to hear how wonderful this house is. I'll just add to them by saying that, while staying in this lovely house, I witnessed two of the greatest sunsets of my life just outside the backdoor. Also, sleeping to the sound of ocean waves is pretty fantastic. The owner is very helpful, attentive, and flexible, and we'll be staying here again for sure!
