Our condo:
Pebble Beach is a gated, oceanfront community located on the Crystal Coast, at the southern end of North Carolina's Outer Banks. Emerald Isle was rated the best beach in NC by USA Today. Our condo, D-101, is a corner, first floor unit, which is clean, gorgeously maintained and equipped, and newly modernized. We have comfortable furnishings, two balconies, only a few steps to the ocean front pool, and only a few steps to the beach!

The price is lower than nearly any other comparable unit, since, being a first floor unit, the view of the ocean is limited--though the walk to the ocean is one of the shortest in the entire complex.

We have local cleaners, maintenance people, and backup maintenance people to be available for any issues or emergencies. The owners' phone numbers are posted inside and we encourage our guests to call for any problems. We have keyless entry so you can go directly to the condo without waiting in line at the rental management company. And, upon departure, you don't have to go back to the management company to check out!

The condo was freshly refreshed with new floor throughout. Well equipped kitchen with modern appliances and bar seating for four. Dining room seats six. Both bathrooms updated with complete remodel in past year.

The master bedroom has a king sized bed with a firm, 12" memory foam bed, an oceanfront and pool-front balcony, and its own full bath. Bedroom 2 has two twins and a balcony, and bedroom 3 has a queen sized bed and a balcony. Bedrooms 2 and 3 share a full bath.

Linens and towels are included. We provide a starter supply of toilet paper, paper towels, trash bag, and dish soap, but you will probably need to purchase more.

Conveniences:
Pebble Beach has an ocean front pool, a second outdoor pool, an indoor pool, and an exercise gym.

We have an ocean front gazebo, multiple grilles and picnic areas, multiple grassy play areas, two lighted tennis courts, a gated entry with guard home and on-site security personnel, and impeccable landscaping. We have an oceanfront clubhouse which is available for meetings, get-togethers, weddings, and other gatherings.

Biking:
We have an 11 mile long, paved, dedicated bicycle and walking path, separated from the highway. Bicycle units are available across the street from the condo and the complex has multiple bicycle racks.

Kayaking, Fishing, Boating:
There are multiple kayak launch areas and parks within the city limits of Emerald Isle, including a sound front park with dock less than one mile away. There is elegant surf fishing right in front of Pebble Beach, and a great pier with legendary fishing and a highly rated restaurant overlooking the ocean one mile away. For those who savor boating and fishing, there is boat trailer parking close by for a modest fee. There is a full service marina roughly 10 mins. away, where a wet boat slip on Bogue Sound can be rented by the day or week. There are two complimentary, public boat ramps on Bogue Sound, within a 10 min. drive, offering convenient access to Bogue Inlet and the Atlantic Ocean. It is about a 10 min. boat ride to the ocean from the marina and from the two public ramps.

North Carolina mountains lake front home:
We also offer a 3 bedroom, 2 bath bungalow, with private dock and boat slip, on Lake James, a pristine, 7000 acre lake in the mountains of North Carolina, where Last of the Mohicans and Hunt for Red October were filmed. Vacation Rental By Owner #617996.

Tips to get the optimal Crystal Coast vacation home experience:

Find your perfect vacation home:

• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in Emerald Isle. Booking in Fall or Spring is a good way to save money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your family qualifies for a discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, management companies supply Crystal Coast area visitor guides that include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Crystal Coast area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting the best vacation rental in Emerald Isle:

• First, have your group decide on trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Emerald Isle Oceanfront Condo at Pebble Beach. 3BR, 2BA. has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally accessible online. If they are not listed, reach out to the property management company before reserving your rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine which bed configuration is right for your vacation.
• Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many concerns.
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect your property!
• Make a record of any damages to the property at check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if damages are assessed.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on good feedback to stimulate more reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
