About this property

OCEANFRONT 4 BR/2 BA 1/2 duplex with stunning views!

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. We also have a full-house listing for Sea Star if you plan a larger family vacation, and would like to book the whole house at one time (VRBO #1193146).

Come beach with us.

Labor Day Weekend Stay
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 :)

Perfect for family vacation
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!

Wonderful beachfront vacation cottage
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!
