About this house rental

We are "locals" in Emerald Isle, and pleased to host your family vacation in our cozy oceanfront home. Whether you are looking for a romantic getaway, a fun gathering place for the family, or an exciting fishing destination, Sea Star is the place to be! This lovely sea cottage features two separate sides for individual families, or you may book both sides for large groups!

Each side sleeps 9 guests in 4 spacious bedrooms, and each side has two full baths, one downstairs and one upstairs. Kitchens have full amenities, and the quaint furnishings & breezy colors bring the essence of the seashore inside! Each side has 3 large flat-screen TVs with Spectrum TV cable and high-speed internet.

In addition to being just steps from the surf, Sea Star boasts million-dollar views from both deck-levels. You will enjoy hours of relaxation on the expansive decks below, and some upstairs bedrooms offer sliding glass doors with a deck, tall viewing chairs and unmatched vistas of the sparkling sands and crystal water. Sip a glass of wine from the upper deck as the sun sets, then create a masterpiece in the kitchen - with freshly-caught local seafood, of course!

This listing is for Sea Star East (VRBO #1091861). Look for availability in Sea Star West (VRBO #1145098) to double your occupancy options at Sea Star, or if Sea Star East is not available for your preferred dates.

My family and I really enjoyed our time at Emerald Isle. It was so relaxing to sit on the balcony and listen to the ocean! At night we went down to the shore and looked at crabs, there were so many! The place had a lot of room to accommodate the amount of people there! Max was so kind and communicative before, during and after our stay! I am looking forward to coming back here on our next trip :)

First, I can't say enough about the hosts, Max and Sophie. They told us everything we needed to know about the property, gave us suggestions for restaurants and places to visit, during our stay they let us know of any upcoming bad weather or local events and the best was the wonderful surprise when we arrived! The home had everything we needed...we could have left all of the kids beach toys at home, there was plenty there for 10 kids, in addition to beach chairs, boogie boards, floating devices, etc. The kitchen was fully stocked so cooking 3 meals a day was no problem when we wanted to. Plenty of seating on the decks and the view is beautiful! Highly recommend!

Our family had a relaxing vacation at this perfect oceanfront cottage. The owners were very kind and gave us information on restaurants and the 4th of July festivities in the area. The ice cream treat was delicious! Thanks again! Kitchen had all the necessary utensils for cooking and beds were very comfy. We loved sitting on upper and lower decks and watching the ocean.waves. We also enjoyed meeting the nice family on the west side. Looking forward to renting this cottage again sometime! Thanks for everything!

Well as luck would have it, our advanced scheduling of a family vacation landed on the exact dates of hurricane Ian’s path. The owner was very accommodating, concerned and went the extra step in keeping the communication lines open with us. God was good and gave us some gorgeous weather after all. This oceanfront place is beautiful. We had an amazing time and plan to go back….hopefully next time without the hurricane !

Sensational Sea Star!

Sensational Sea Star!

Our family of 5 plus 2 grandparents enjoyed an amazing week in July at the Sea Star! This was only our second time visiting Emerald Isle and the location, views of the ocean and proximity to the beach could not be beat! We loved the layout of the house. There was plenty of room to relax and the deck and chairs are perfect! The house was very clean upon arrival and Helen patiently answered all of our questions prior to arrival. The house had almost everything we needed and we look forward to visiting again soon!

Spring Break Time Away

Spring Break Time Away

Helen was a great host, and their property is very well maintained and clean! I knew what to expect so we brought our own linen (sheets, pillow cases, towels, and wash cloths) no issues. The only issue we had was the beach renourishment happening during our entire visit. One thing I was looking forward to was the peace and downtime of sitting on the deck and looking out into the ocean. Also, the sounds of ocean waves to destress, which is why we paid more to stay oceanfront. Instead there were days and nights filled with heavy machinery and noise. I know our hosts had no control over this and I probably should have done some homework before making a choice. Outside of that, everything else was enjoyable!

Lovely home with spectacular views. Such a nice trip with family and friends. We enjoyed shelling, body surfing, boogie boarding and relaxing in the sun. The house has exactly what you need to enjoy your beach trip. The owner Helen was very responsive and concerned for our comfort and needs. We would definitely rent this home again.

Great location, maybe a bit small for our party, 4 adults and 4 children. There are safety concerns with the dealing. Lots of rusty nails sticking up as well as weathered boards. Even with footwear a couple of our children received splinters. We probably will not rent a carpeted beach front property again.

We really loved the stretch of beach that this rental is on. We had four adults and five young kids in the house for four days and it was a very nice layout. The upper back deck is great. Bringing your own towels and sheets is a bit of a hassle, but it's in the rental information so it's not a surprise.
