We enjoyed our stay at Seaside Sanctuary. Chris was quick with responses to questions I had prior to our trip and insisted is to contact him with any questions or concerns while staying at his beautiful home.
The location was phenomenal. And the house was definitely comfortable and inviting with a hostess gift waiting for us upon arrival.

We stayed here 2 years ago and it was just as great this time. Beautiful house with a gorgeous oceanfront view and access. Loved the updates to the kitchen counters! Will probably stay here again.

The property owners were proactive in communicating with me about our stay. The property was easily located and provided plenty of parking for our family (5 vehicles). You can see the ocean from the living room, dining room and kitchen; as well as two bedrooms and the great big room that has five beds. Overall, we loved it!

Seaside Sanctuary was just that . . . a cozy, peaceful sanctuary I returned to at the end of very busy, business filled days in Morehead City. It was a delight to stay in this lovely home with the ocean as my backyard. The home was clean, organized, and equipped with everything you need for a great time at the beach! You can tell the hosts love their home. Chris was very kind and responsive. Stay at Seaside Sanctuary - you will love it!

We all were very impressed with everything from cleanliness to views, how conveniently close to entertainment as well as to all the toys for our grandchildren to enjoy. And have to say when one of my grandkids evidently put one of there remotes in the bag mom mistakenly took it home the owner was very understanding to this. We sincerely appreciate your patience with this. We will most certainly be back! Thanks again for sharing your beautiful home.

Mother Nature had other plans for us... we had rain 3 of the four days. However, it wasn’t bad. Right next to the beach, it allowed us to enjoy the beach between raindrops. The house looked great and really fit our needs.
On our last full day, Mother Nature blessed us with a beautiful day and we enjoyed every bit of it.
Thanks to Chris and Karen........

I don’t have anything bad to say at all! Renting this property was an amazing experience. Checking in was very simple and quick. The entire house was super clean and smelled fresh/new. Kitchen was amazing, up to date appliances and fully stocked! It was super easy to reach the host and they were super quick with responding! Super friendly family and customer service was a 10/10! I love how the house was stocked with board games! My family and I enjoyed this property and we have discussed renting again VERY SOON! From check in to check out, it was an amazing vibe!

We were in NC for a family wedding. I wasn’t sure whether to get cheaper lodging and spend money exploring or stay on the beach at a higher cost. My adult children thought they would want to explore but once we got to the beach house, they didn’t want to leave. The hosts were easy to work with and had all the beach stuff we needed. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

Awesome ocean views and an amazing beach in Emerald Isle. Post-hurricane weather was wonderful and the house has tons of amenities including plenty of beach chairs (much appreciated); lots of towels, comfy living space, and spectacular sunsests.

Spent a week for a family reunion. The house was exceptional. Beach was beautiful. We appreciated all of the beach equipment being available. House was very clean and well equipped. If I only had one negative it would just be the kitchen was small for large meals (we had 9 people), and there were no empty cupboards to store the groceries we brought. We worked around that. Had a great experience and would certainly return in another vacation.

A great house in a beautiful setting
A well furnished beach house in and excellent uncrowded location on Emerald Isle. A most pleasant host who was readily available to answer any questions upon check-in or during our stay..
We have been coming to E.I. for approx 50 yrs and have seen it grow + & -..As always enjoyed our trips to the Bogue Inlet pier to watch the real fisherman.. Also found the BEST shrimp burger EVER in a free standing food truck about 1 mi before before the old landmark Big Oak Drive in on Salter Path Rd ..

Great, super cute
The property was perfect for our family. My kids LOVED the third floor with multiple beds. The property was very clean. The check in and check out was easy. We just clicked on, dropped our stuff, and went directly down the private deck to the beach. Would definitely stay again!

Seriously, a fantastic oceanfront getaway!
Chris was fantastic. His amount and readiness of communication was exactly what I'd be looking for in any vacation home owner. The property was not only clean but inviting -- there was a welcome basket and card, and there was honestly a TON of towels, small toiletries, start items, etc. We were surprised and thrilled by this. We cooked our meals and noticed that the kitchen is well stocked with cookware, dishes, and plenty of spices. I am just so glad we chose to come here and we want to bring our group of 6-8 adults again next year. Thank you!

A great beachy getaway
The views of and access to the ocean are unparalleled. Direct access to the beach was awesome. The home was great, and the beds really comfortable. We are looking forward to coming back.

Our entire family had a great time at Seaside Sanctuary. There for a long weekend with our kids (22, 19, 14), we all loved the home itself, its comfort, and of course the wonderful, direct access to a beautiful beach. We were there to relax, spend time together, and enjoy the surroundings, and the Murphy's home allowed for all of that. Their home is comfortable, warm and inviting, and for us was a great place to get away. All the kids asked when we could come back! Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your home; we'll certainly be back as soon as our schedule allows.
