Sitting a short walk from the beach, this Emerald Isle vacation rental promises relaxing days spent on North Carolina's shores. Outdoor adventure can be found at Hammocks Beach State Park where you can explore sand dunes or rent a kayak for a day on the water. Drive the 2 miles to Salty Pirate Waterpark to make a splash on a sunny afternoon before returning home to the 1-bedroom, 1-bath apartment. End the day with a cookout with friends and family as you make use of the backyard's grill!

  • Meh...

    3/5

    The good... The porperty is only a block from the beach. Short drive to multiple restaurants/stores. Allowed dogs. The bad.. Everything in the house was covered in sand when we arrived. The front door has mold on the weatherstriping. Multiple of the drop-ceiling tiles seemed like they were about to fall down along with looking wet or like they were previously wet. The listing made it seem as though there was a private walkway to the beach, there was not. All around a lot smaller than the pictures made it seem.

    From the owner: Hi Melanie, we couldn't accommodate your early check-in request, due to the busy season. There was no sand, mold, or issues with ceiling tiles during our pre-arrival check, nor was any evidence presented to the contrary. We thoroughly inspect and photograph 1 Ocean Fun before each guest's arrival. We wish you had contacted us as we sent you 7 messages before and during your stay.
    -We are glad you enjoyed the proximity to the beach and the convenience of nearby restaurants and stores, as well as the ability to bring your dogs.
    -While there is no private walkway to the beach, 1 Ocean Fun is just 30 yards away from beach access, with two walkways clearly noted in the listing. We urge guests to thoroughly read the listing to ensure the property meets their expectations.

    We do all we can to make the best possible stay and look forward to hosting many satisfied guests at 1 Ocean Fun.

  • Not what the site showed on line

    1/5

    Furniture smelled and was broken, cooking dishes were not clean. Only had 2 towels and 2 wash clothes for two people for a week . Shower was very small. Oven door wouldn't stay closed while cooking. We left 3 days early and returned home from a week long vacation.

    Homeowner’s response: Hi James, the furniture is routinely cleaned, in good condition, with a pleasant scent. All dishes are cleaned and inspected between guests' stays. We provide ample towels in the bathroom closet, in addition to sets on the racks.
    - 1 Ocean Fun photographs accurately reflect the interior and its proximity to beach access, just 30 yards away.
    - Prior to your stay, new wood flooring was installed, along with fresh kitchen/bathroom linoleum.
    - The oven was serviced with new hardware prior to your arrival, and the oven door closes fine.
    - The shower dimensions are ample for one person, and meet all building codes.
    - Additionally, we provide a beach wagon, beach chairs, umbrella, boogie, and skim boards, snorkel & mask, swim goggles, and sand castle play set for the children. We look forward to accommodating future vacationers at our stunning Emerald Isle Beach.

  • Overall Good Stay

    4/5

    Overall the property was good with a great location. However, when we got there at 4 to check in, it was still being cleaned so we had to wait a few minutes. It was no big deal but we were told check in was at 4.
