About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Affordable Oceanfront w/ Private Pool!

During Hurricane Florence, our home suffered extensive damage, thus was fully renovated in 2019 - including all new kitchen cabinetry and bathroom vanities with granite tops, new furnishings throughout, custom tiled walk in showers, all new flooring, lighting, etc. We live fairly close by and strive to keep our home impeccably maintained and well stocked.

We are an Oceanfront, 5 bedroom, 4 bath duplex with a private pool. Beds are K,K,Q,Q,D,T. Even though we are a duplex, the pool is exclusively for our side. It is located directly off of the main living area, is fenced in, and is a wonderful extension to the inside living space.

Weekly (Saturday to Saturday) stays only. All bed and bath linens are included with weekly rentals. No Pets and No Smoking Property.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 4 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a coffee maker. Limited housekeeping is available.

40th anniversary celebration

What a beautiful beach home. If I had a house this lovely, I would not be sharing it. :) Gorgeous granite in each updated bathroom and especially the kitchen. Plenty of seating for home cooked meals. Also appreciated the bathtub for kids. We enjoyed the pool and porch swing. I especially want to mention that we had a three year old along and there is an alarm of sorts when the back door is opened that alerts you. It’s a chime that you can hear throughout the house which was a huge relief to my grandmother heart. Huge washing machine and dryer. The labeling is impressive and it’s fully stocked even down to birthday candles. We aren’t sure if we ruined a floatie so we left a new one. We had the best time. Thank you for having us.

Bliss

Our third year at Great Expectations East, and we have already booked our fourth return next year. We love everything about this house, pool and location. Beautiful decor, comfortable seating and beds, always impeccably clean, well stocked with anything we’ve ever needed. Three out of five bedrooms have their own oceanfront access to deck and the bathrooms are updated, most with tiled/glass walk in showers. It’s close to good restaurants, shopping and local attractions, and it’s sitting on the best beach in North Carolina.

Family Time at the Beach

The property is in a great location with direct easy access to a beautiful uncrowded beach. The private pool is small but adequate. The house is comfortable and well equipped to accomodate my large family.

Wow, what a great family vacation!

My family had a great stay here! The beach was beautiful, and the pool was an added benefit! The house was fully equipped with everything we needed. The layout was perfect for multiple groups. The shops and restaurants were a little far from the house, so I would suggest renting bicycles. Overall, it was an awesome trip - would definitely go back to this house!

Stunning!

This was an amazing house for our extended family vacation!! Excellent communication with the owners prior to our stay; they promptly answered all questions regarding the property. Comfortable furnishings, a well stocked kitchen, plenty of bath towels (a few more kitchen towels would have been nice to have on hand), and the view/location on the beach... perfect! We had a wonderful time!! Hope to return in the future!!

Amazing

This house is such a great find. The pool was fantastic and the access to the beach was so close. Everything you could need was there and linens and towels were in great shape. Beds were soft. The whole vibe of the house and location was relaxing. It was perfect for our group of six. The downstairs area was fine for us, bit it may get crowded with more people. We were far enough from the pier that we felt a little safer in the water, but close enough to go to the pier to fish. Aquarium is so close and a short drive to Beaufort. Close to Publix and Food Lion. We will consider booking here again in the future!

The house was beautiful, well stocked, clean, fantastic location, pool was great. Pool light didn’t work, contacted owner and they got back to me immediately with a response. Owner was VERY nice and extremely responsive to any questions we had. Not sure if it is in the discrimination, the grill is charcoal not gas. There was charcoal available when we got there. Highly recommend this beautiful home!

Never Again

First the lock on the door. Need’s to be replaced and management knew it before we got there. The deck needs to be replaced around the pool. The rest of the deck needs replaced also. Nail heads sticking out from about 1/16’- 1/8” everywhere on the deck. Weeds growing up through the deck. The bedroom with the Queen size bed did not have screws on one of the bed rails. No ice maker in refrigerator or garbage disposal in sink. Terrible waste of our money. No drapes in the King sized bedroom on the second floor. When the neighbors turned on porolights at night it lights up the room, also the ceiling fan ticks. Never Again. Shame on you for charging so much for such a depleted property.

Family/Anniversary vacation

The home was perfect for our family beach vacation! The pool was especially a treat, clean and the right size for us from Grandpa to our 6 year old grandson! We were especially pleased with how clean everything was and loved the equipped kitchen! We would love to return sometime! The owners were great with communication too!

Perfect in every way

We’ve been coming to Emerald Isle 1-2x year for 10 years now, and this, by far is our favorite beach house. Lovely decor, comfortable seating and beds. This was our second stay here, and it was as spotlessly clean and well appointed as ever. We love that there are three oceanfront bedrooms with walk out decks and quality rockers/seating. Also love that we don’t have to carry groceries to the top floor. Great views of the beach, just steps away. Everyone loves the pool. Already booked our third return. This beach house is pure bliss!

Great beach vacay!

Everything about our stay was wonderful. The ocean is so close that you see and hear the surf easily from the balconies. The pool was bigger than I thought it would be and we spent a ton of time in it. Well-appointed home that was attractive and comfortable, hosted by a super nice and very communicative couple.

All. Time. Favorite!

We visit Emerald Isle 1-2x each year the past 9 years, and have loved all the oceanfronts we’ve stayed at, but Great Expectations East tops our list. Beautifully decorated with quality furnishings and appliances. There was no fighting over who gets the best bedroom because all were beautiful, spacious, well appointed, and had mattresses that even my herniated disc loved! Never slept better. Spotlessly clean and well organized so finding household needs was effortless. With a baby that often cried at night, I found the bedrooms well insulated from sound because all but mom slept through it. Haha! The pool was pure joy, and my hubby loved surf casting steps from the house. Fishing was good! Location was perfect. Close to all our favorite shops and restaurants, but out of the high traffic areas, both on the road and on the beach. Owners are lovely to work with, check in was easy, and in a word, this place is perfect! We’ve already paid our deposit for next year and plan for it to be one of many future stays at EI.
