Welcome to "Finest Life". See our 100+ five star reviews on Vacation Rental By Owner over 10 years. Most of our bookings are return guests - that tells you everything you need to know. This is a very clean, well maintained and entirely furnished OCEAN FRONT home - not a condo - in striking Emerald Isle, NC. It has a full-on ocean view from the deck, bedrooms and the living room, not partial vistas and not over the street or rooftops. It is half of a duplex. The other side of the duplex is not a rental; it is someone's rarely used second home, so you will not have any crazy or noisy neighbors, events or big groups next door. The kitchen and baths were completely remodeled in 2023; see photos! You''re likely to see dolphins frolicking in the ocean. Unlike staying in a condo complex, you'll have privacy and no worries about noise, sharing the deck or annoying neighbors. No dogs. Ideal for families with kids. The home is close to a lifeguard station on the beach.
There is a gentle set of stairs from deck to beach, not the 50 or 60 steps to get to the homes that sit high up on the dunes. The home has everything you'll need and the kitchen is completely equipped (even a spare blender, coffee maker & toaster). There is a Kuerig coffee machine with pot and pod capability. We provide starter supplies upon your arrival (soap, paper towels, t.p.). ALL of the linens in the home is newer premium gel memory foam 12" beds with thick zippered bed-sacks.
This home is an impressive value and has everything you'll need for a restful anxiety-complimentary vacation at the beach. The manager is local and the owner is always available. Note the constructed-in benches on the deck near the ocean. The bathrooms have handsome tile - not cheap fibreglass! The sliding doors are new (2024) peaceful simple to use and lock Pella units. As you can see from all of our photos, we strive to make this a comfortable and charmingly 'beachy' home. Among the features of this property are Spectrum cable, STRONG wireless internet (to the deck +), newer central air unit, ceiling fans in every room, 4 flat-screen HD-TV's (55" in living room and 40" in 3 bedrooms with Roku access to premium channels), and bespoke hand-painted tropical murals in each bedroom. It's NOT cheap thin, uncomfortable rattan / boxy / IKEA furnishings, nor is it used furnishings from Grandma's home. We want you to relax and be cozy! Telephone owner AL directly at nine seven three four seven six eight one nine one with any questions.

There are 2 ocean-front master bedrooms (1 K & 1 Q) and 2 bedrooms street side (partial Sound view) with doubles and singles. There are 2 full tiled baths and a outstanding outdoor enclosed over-sized locking private shower that was modernized in 2024 with hot and cold water and a dressing area. (Great for kids or a fast exhilarating rinse after coming off the beach.) The deck has a convenient hose for sandy feet.
There are lifeguards on the beach within sight just a short walk away (April - Sept.). This home is ON THE BEACH with the same ocean, vistas, and ease of access as the mansions that cost 3 or 4 times as much. We provide beach chairs, beach umbrella, toys, as well as beach games. We savor your inquiry for any questions and thank you for your time and for considering "Best Life"! E-mail or call if you have any questions or need any additional information. Best wishes for a great Emerald Isle vacation!

How to find the best rental experience:

When to visit Emerald Isle & When to book:

• Book your Crystal Coast rental in Fall or Spring to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local Crystal Coast visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitor guides have coupons for nearby shops and restaurants.
