Favorite Beach House!

We come down every year to visit my daughter and this beach house is our favorite. We rent the whole house, it has four bedrooms on each side +2 loft rooms and a ping pong room in the basement. The deck is brand new this year and I believe the east side got new vinyl flooring. The owners are very easy to work with and we truly enjoy our stay!

Fantastic stay - restful retreat for two families

We had a wonderful stay at Dune Castle West....a restful retreat for two families (4 adults/5 kids) plus one dog! The location is great....with unbelievable views....enjoying sunrises and sunsets. The overall layout worked very well for our two families....allowing for privacy....but the open family room/kitchen area is great for interacting. We also especially enjoyed the balcony off the upper master bedroom....wonderful for star gazing. Dune Castle West is a great home if you just want to plant yourself on the beach for a week....or if you want to use it as a home base while exploring the Crystal Coast.

Family Beach Stay

This home provided plenty of room for our large immediate family (2 adults and 6 kids). It was very comfortable and clean. The house had durable items that we didn’t have to worry about our children ruining. The gas grill right off the kitchen was perfect for dinners. The kitchen was well equipped missing only crab crackers (although we left a set there for the next occupants). The location was amazing right on the beach. Overall we had a wonderful stay and look forward to renting again.

Can't find a better location!

We will be back! The house was great, It's a vacation rental on the ocean so it isn't 100%, but it's definitely a solid 90%. The owners were great when we had a slight issue, and it was everything I could have hoped for. You can't beat the location. Steps from the ocean. A great beach. Close to the stores. Everyone loved it! The kids loved the big TV, comfy couches and barstools! I loved the porch and the view!

Great beach access which was steps from the deck. Very comfortable space with plenty of room for our family of 8. A little deeper cleaning could have been done. Ran out of gas after 15 minutes of grill use. Told to replace tank and money would be refunded. Overall a wonderful week with the family on the beach.

Margaret, Thank you so much for staying at Dunecastle. We are delighted that you enjoyed your time and were able to spend a week away with family! We have hired a new, exceptional cleaning company this year. We have already had great reviews about them. We are always looking for ways to improve our guests stay. Having a back up propane tank may be a good option to prevent this from happening in the future. Thank you! Looking forward to hearing from you in the future!

Great location ocean front!

Had a very nice time. The house is very nice however it is a need of many repairs. Master bath ceiling molded w/water damaged same outside in the hallway between upstairs bedrooms. A lot of weathering damage outside that needs cleaned up and repaired. The check-in process (cleaning ladies were not finished by 4 PM. ) That was awkward. Grill was filthy dirty and no gas in tank. Need to upgrade pillows on the beds. Great location with views access to beach.

Wonderful Location

We had a wonderful week with our family at Dune Castle West ! We had family rent the East side the same week and we loved having the whole place to ourselves . The house was comfortable and warm and you can't beat the view . We have been vacationing in the area for more than 20 years and the views here and the private beach was the best . The owners made themselves available to answer any questions I may have had . We did have some issues with a lot of debris left around the deck and the house but I am thinking this had more to do with cleaning service and inspector not communicating with home owners since we were there at the end of the season . The home owners went to fix any issues we had after we left . No issue there stopped us from enjoying a wonderful week !

Always lovely

This is our second time renting Dune Castle West. It's the best location, and the new beds are comfy. Lots of pots and pans for every item you're trying to cook. The grill was working great. The only issue we had (and I know salt and sand are hard on metal) the door locks on to both decks were finicky, the kids couldn't unlock them. The locks were stubborn and salty. So we used the slider to come and go mostly. But it's a highly used beach house on the ocean with amazing views and a great air conditioner, what else do you need. The hot water in the outside shower was awesome, it was the most used shower of the week! The new deck was splinter free. We're booking again for next year. It's my favorite spot on EI.

Fantastic family vacation

From the planning to the arrival, Shonell & Craig were super helpful. I am a planner, I like to have all my bases covered and this was not a problem at all. All of my emails were answered promptly. The house is exactly as described. We rented both sides as we are a family group consisting of 4 generations. Parents with kids on one side and the "old" people on the other. The connecting door was very helpful. If the door was open, the grandchildren knew that Mem & Pep were up and they were free to come join us for breakfast. The beach is very clean and not crowded. Everyone enjoyed the week and we can't wait to do it again. The only draw back for us was the charcoal grill. We are used to gas so we had to remember to start the charcoal well in advance of dinner.

Thank You Roxann for your review, I will look into providing a gas grill..Maybe a portable with the little green gas containers. I have had gas grills before but then the replacing the gas becomes a problem..But thank you for your thoughts..next year look under the kitchen cabinet for a portable gas grill I will always have a Weber..

The house and furnishings are in need of a lot of updates and repairs. It has been neglected.

This house was really a disappointment. Problems: Safety: Tension rod in upstairs bath (no tension-is just resting on tub surround, falls when moving shower curtain); Outlet covers missing (MBR & street side bedroom on main floor); Out door ocean side lights do not work; Screws on deck floor sticking up (puncture wound risk); Glass top on table broke; Charcoal grill does not have lower closing mechanism-sparks fly; Toilet seat in upstairs bath; and Lamp in ocean side main floor bedroom (holder for light bulb is broke). Health: Mold on upstairs shower curtain; Ant hills in grassy areas; Mold on and in ocean side bedroom light switch by sliding door; and Had a large roach in the down stairs bedroom. Maintenance: Exhaust fans in both bathrooms do not work; Several unpainted patches on walls; refrigerator missing handle. Things needing replaced: Mattresses in all bedrooms; Pillows are hard or falling apart; Stove/oven; Storm door ocean side; Kitchen is poorly stocked and in need of upkeep. (cookie sheets are black with cooked on residue, toaster is from the 1970s as are the blenders and they were dirty)

I take all reviews and feedback seriously but this review seems nit picky and completely incorrect, as an example I do not have exhaust fans in the bathrooms those are air and heating vents..The mattress are 2-3 yrs old and the west side downstairs was replaced in the summer this year. I invest heavily to keep this property in excellent shape although it is the end of the season so things do get warn.. I am sorry this guest was unhappy but she never called or contacted me with any issues. Even though I don't agree with her assessment I will take a list with me to correct any problems found. I have already sent a list to my cleaning team to correct any items they find.

Nice stay, big house with lots of room.

The box springs on two beds were very noisy. Needs more towel racks in bathrooms. The steps up to the house were very narrow. The kitchen was great we cooked most of our meals.

Vacation stay month of October

The entrance door is gross. The stairs leading upstairs (both,) were dirty. The smell when opening the door to the game room was nasty. The laundry room was way too cluttered with an extra appliance and a non-working laundry tub and the refrigerator was nasty! The floor leading to and including the laundry room needs swept and mopped. We had to pull out all of the items in the cupboards and oven and scrub most of them!! The kitchen cupboards were totally unorganized and dirty, TOO MANY POTS & PANS! Need a vent & new lights in the upstairs BR. Ne No light in the outside shower (we had to buy one). Need new vacuums. Deck & steps need replaced, dangerous. We pounded lots of nails and the condition of the wood is in really bad shape. Lots of attention needed throughout the house. Really need lights on the deck stairs, very dangerous. The game room was a joke. Broken card table, no chairs, the rocker was broken, the ping pong table needs replaced. ( I had to clean up drinking glasses, & trash in the game room). Closets need to be finished. The outside downstairs room is scary, needs cleaned out and the door needs secured. Having beach toys & boards for the kids would be nice. Beach chairs would also be a plus. Had an issue with flys, they were horrible inside. We figured out if we moved the trash & recycle cans away from where they go, that pretty much eliminated the problem. Swifter dust mop and mop would be helpful! The Baki’s

Perfect Location!

Perfect location at this updated duplex beachhouse. We are a family of 6, with a 13, 11, 6, and 7 year old, plus our tiny elderly dog in tow, and we all just had the best time! A screen on the upstairs master sliding porch door would have been a lovely touch, but didn’t stop the crashing waves from lulling us to sleep each night. The property is just steps from the beach - so convenient for the kids to go in and out of the house as they pleased. There was a loggerhead nest 4-5 houses down, but sadly those little buggers didn’t hatch while we were there ☹️ The kitchen was well-stocked. We enjoyed coffee on the porch each morning, and the kids had so much fun in the downstairs ping-pong room. The kitchen and bathroom granite was beautiful. The property was quiet and peaceful. Thank you for the amazing time and all the memories!

Perfect Beachfront Getaway for 2 families

Dune Castle west is fabulous. We have stayed at various VRBOs along Emerald Isle and this one is hard to beat. Great and tasteful updates to the kitchen, the mattresses are perfectly fine (in contrast to what some older reviews may say - no one in our group had any issues). The kitchen is stocked with all the appliances you’d need and there is a gas grill (just pick up your own small propane tank at the grocery store when you drive into town). We had 3 couples, an infant and 3 kids under 10 years of age who all slept comfortably in beds. The loft with twin beds is great and spacious, and it doubled as a playroom for the smaller kids while adults hung out in the main living room. 5G WiFi is zippy and we hooked up our chromecast and streamed all the usual things. The beach views, sounds and deck are great. Plenty of comfortable chairs and a table set to hang out outside and eat a meal or sip some coffee. Craig the owner and Koral the property manager are so responsive with any questions or concerns definitely recommend them. They are so professional. The place is clean, inviting and comfortable. Highly recommend!!

Not a Good Fit for Us

*** My husband and I chose Emerald Isle before the season was underway for some quiet and R&R. We were instead greeted with a major construction project going on the beach in front of the house (8 bulldozers with backup alarms, trailers, cranes, massive rusted pipes operating 24/7 in front of the house with bright lights at night. I spoke to the contractors and learned that they would be gone in 2-3 days. I called Craig who was very kind and offered a refund (very nice, but where to go late Saturday with a dog after a 12-hour drive?) or to stay the week, get back to him in a few days, and he would compensate us for the inconvenience. Seemed the better way to go as we were tired from the drive. We did get back to him a few days later, reported that we were now able to enjoy the beach, and would appreciate compensation for the 2 days. That was the last we ever heard from him. That was the most disappointing part of our stay. The décor in the house was nice. The beach is spectacular and the view from the house breathtaking!! The master bedroom is washed with sunlight from sunrise to sunset- I loved it! I would have been 5* for that alone, had we not been misled and not responded to. For those that are like me, please know that the house is old and attention to detail not there. It was not very clean (sticky cabinets, crumbs and dead flies in drawer’s, lots of white hair and threads all over the couch and floor kind of stuff. Maybe this is standard in beach rentals? Not sure, this was our first. Other details we did not anticipate were things like construction materials stored in bedroom/bath closets, a large 20”rodent trap in font of outdoor shower, lots of rusted nail pops on decks, debris strewn about outside, rusty entrance door, strong smell of mold in the lower level where you enter etc. Again, maybe this is standard, or standard in this price range? If small details do not bother you, this is your place. Kim & Fitz 2021

About Dune Castle Rentals
Nearly 25 years ago, we fell in love with Emerald Isle when our girls were still young — and we never looked back. What started as a family beach escape became something much more. Over the years, Dunecastle has been the backdrop for countless special memories: birthday celebrations, family reunions, and milestones we'll never forget. Our daughter Ashlie even said her vows right there on the sand in front of the cottage.
Today we're blessed with 11 grandchildren, and there's nothing quite like watching their faces light up when the dolphins swim and jump just offshore — the same stretch of beach where their parents played years before.
We share Dunecastle with other families because we know firsthand what this place can mean. We hope it becomes part of your family's story too.

Voici pourquoi l’hôte a choisi cet hébergement

We fell in love with Dunecastle the moment we saw that huge oceanfront deck — the kind of space where every generation can gather, relax, and take in the Atlantic all at once. Grandparents, parents, and kids all have their place, with the ocean right there in front of them.
What makes Dunecastle truly unique is the flexibility. The East and West units can connect through an adjoining door, making it perfect for large families, reunions, or groups who want to be together without being on top of each other. Rent one side for up to 10 guests, or rent both sides and sleep up to 20 — with direct oceanfront access, a massive shared deck, and the beach just steps away.
Whether you're planning a multigenerational family vacation, a reunion, or just a week at the beach with great friends, Dunecastle is built for it.

Voici ce qui rend cet hébergement unique

Why Emerald Isle?
Emerald Isle sits on North Carolina's Crystal Coast — and it stands apart from the crowded resort beaches up and down the East Coast. Here's why families keep coming back:
Uncrowded Beaches
Emerald Isle's 12 miles of coastline stay remarkably uncrowded even in peak summer. No high-rise hotels. No boardwalk chaos. Just wide, clean, natural beach.
Crystal Clear Water
The Crystal Coast earns its name. The water here is cleaner and clearer than most Atlantic beaches, with gentle waves that are perfect for kids and first-time swimmers.
Family Friendly
Emerald Isle is quiet, safe, and laid back by design. No neon strip. No party scene. Just a classic Carolina beach town built around family vacations.
Natural Beauty
Dolphins are a common sight right from the shoreline. Loggerhead sea turtles nest on the beach each summer. Brown pelicans glide the coastline daily. Nature is everywhere.
Close to Everything
The charming waterfront towns of Beaufort and Swansboro are a short drive away. The NC Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores, Bogue Inlet Pier, and Cape Lookout National Seashore are all within easy reach.
True Southern Hospitality
Emerald Isle is a small, welcoming community where locals still wave at strangers and the pace of life slows down the moment you cross the bridge.
