Just right
My husband and I decided to stay at EI a second week after our adult children returned home. We didn't need a huge place to stay and this was just right. The owners were very friendly and above us the entire week but never heard a sound. The unit was clean and just as described. The ability to drive and park down at the beach was wonderful so we didn't have to haul our chairs and my husbands fishing gear by foot. However it is still close enough to easily walk to the beach or pier. It is small but just as described, perfect for 1-2 people. Also we left behind a few important items and the host was so accommodating to send them in the mail. Thank you!

Great stay!
We throughly enjoyed our stay at the Emerald Mermaid. It was a great location for us as my husband’s family had a beach house rented not far away but there wasn’t space for us and this space was perfect for 2 to go hang out with them and then come back to peace and quiet. I wish Emerald Isle was only 6-8 hours away instead of a 17 hr drive because I’d be back every year.

Not what we expected
I would say that pictures you show of your place need to be updated. The refrigerator was extremely small, the TV was difficult to use and small, the dehumidifier that was in the bathroom was very loud, and there were no dressers for clothes. Yes it has beach access, but from the pictures it looks like it is out your property. In reality you have to drive or walk to a parking lot and then over the dune to the beach.

Perfect studio apartment! Kitchen well equipped with a wide variety of pots/pans/measuring tools/dishes/knives. Small refrigerator, but large enough to hold essentials and several grocery stores near by. Space was clean with a vacuum provided for sand patrol! Covered outdoor space for relaxing. Easily walkable beach access( bikes also provided) Hosts very friendly! Would most certainly stay there again.

Top-notch hospitality
We could not have enjoyed our stay here more. The host truly paid attention to every detail with this unit. From the complementary bikes, to the porch games, to the grill and outdoor shower, everything was decorated so lovely and all the amenities really made us feel at home. The location is perfect--central to the beach, bike path, and restaurants. On top of that it is incredibly affordable! Thanks again to our hosts-if we're ever in the area again we will be back.

Great Stay
The property was clean and perfect for what we needed for our Memorial Day weekend beach stay. Mary provided plenty of linens along with beach chairs and bikes that were very convenient. Communication with Mary was easy and she provided instructions for just about everything in the house which was very convenient. A great stay!

Great place by the beach
My girlfriend and I absolutely loved this beautiful little apartment. It's the perfect location for doing everything you want to do when you're in this area. This place was spotless. Not a thing was dirty or out of place. The private beach access is amazing because you have a place to park your vehicle or bikes and don't have to deal with a crowd of people. Tons of shops and food are within walking distance and the pier is very close as well. It may not be right on the water or have a view of the water right from your window, but everything else about this place makes it the perfect stay. We will definitely try to book this place first the next time we are back in the area.

Chilly, breezy weekend
We were just there for the weekend. Unfortunately the weather was chilly & breezy forcing us to limit beach time. We were disappointed with television channel selections, being only digital. Not a big thing for most, but for us older adults it makes a difference. Also the comfy chairs were not user friendly for older adults. But, the property is delightful & access to private beach parking was really appreciated!

Perfect spot for a couple’s getaway. Lots of thoughtful little touches: soap and shampoo in showers (indoor and outdoors) plenty of dishes, pots and pans, etc, even a few spices. Bikes and beach chairs. Clean and comfortable with private shaded outdoor seating. Lots of helpful notes from owner posted where needed.

Emerald Isle Getaway
Neat comfortable efficiency apartment several blocks from the beach (with gated/vehicle secure beachfront parking). Our host couple was friendly, helped with their "new" TV hook-up & showed us how to handle humidity in the unit with "dry" cool setting, combined with dehumidifier. Our getaway was close to the main drag & restaurants/shops, but was a quiet & pleasant. Nice people ... cool place.
