Beautiful and Peaceful
The check in process was super smooth and we even were able to check in early! The house was very clean. Having a beautiful path for a short walk to the beach was AMAZING. Biljana checked in on us through text when we got there which was very sweet. House is beautifully located and well kept. Definitely would stay again.

Absolutely wonderful
We had a fabulous time! The house was beautiful and so spacious. Everything we needed was supplied. There was a cabinet of board games and a game room downstairs. The kitchen was fully stocked with supplies and appliances that made it easy to cook and serve food. The host was communicative even before we checked in. It was a dream vacation!

The Perfect First Visit to Emerald Isle
We ventured to Emerald Isle with another family and was impressed with the vacation home. The home was clean, spacious, comfortable, and accommodating. The host communicated with us prior to arriving and that gave us comfort with asking questions about our stay and protocol. We adored the shady walk to the beach and found it to be easy & quick for 4-6 year olds. We would recommend this home and host without hesitation and hope that we can return annually.

10/10 Would Recommend!
My family of 6 stayed for 6 days and would certainly recommend this place to anyone, with kids or not. My kids walked to the beach every single day, we had game night upstairs regularly, soaked up the sun on every deck, and just made memories we will never forget. <3 Thank you so much for sharing your incredible home!

Great place to stay for parties around 6-8!
While this property isn't right on the water, there's a great little walkway directly to the beach access. We happened to stay while a cyclone ripped through the area, so keep in mind that this walkway can get flooded during the rainy season. Even so, it's easy enough to just take the road around the block. We loved having the ping pong area in the basement, and having the house pre-stocked with necessities was a major plus. There were some bikes on the property that worked great, and we even took the corn hole to the beach. Last, David and Biljana are amazing and responsive, I highly recommend the place!

Can’t beat the location or house set up!
A fantastic location! Awesome amenities at the house. Loved the split level set up — game room on first, bedrooms on second, kitchen/living on third. Porches galore! We especially enjoyed them in the evenings and mornings. Beach was an easy/short walk for all ages (3 to 70). So many toys, chairs, bike offerings at the house too. Highly recommend. Would definitely stay again.

Lovely property, but some of the mattresses were really uncomfortable, and the broken toilet was an irritant. Kitchen is totally not functional if you plan to do much cooking, but for a vacation rental it was adequate.

Spring break
This house and location were great! The owners check on us and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. They were so pleasant and communication was quick! We found the property to be clean and very comfortable- a true home away from home. We loved the quiet and seclusion. Plenty of things to do, but the beaches were the best! We could have easily stayed for another week. Thanks for an amazing trip!!

Beautiful home in excellent location
This was a perfect family vacation spot. The house is beautiful and spotlessly clean but best of all is the location! Short, easy walk to the beach and the beach was not crowded at all. Thank you Biljana for opening up your beautiful home. Our kids are already asking when we can come back and stay in the exact same house.
