Waterfront apartment accommodation

Waterfront Studio Apartment
Great location tucked back in an older neighborhood on the water, clean and comfortable sleeping arrangements.

Beach Front Condo- sleeps 4!
This is a great little place! The location was great. I admit I would have like a better view out the window, but all I had to do was take a few steps to see the water. Shirt walk to the ocean, nice pool. Would definitely stay here again.

New! Oceanfront 2bd/2ba - Penthouse View!
We enjoyed our stay here! The beach supplies were amazing, and we had everything we needed for traveling with our toddler. One thing to note is you do have to put the sheets on the beds yourself. That wasn’t clear in the listing, and we waited until we were exhausted to do it later that night which wasn’t very fun. But very minor action in what was a wonderful family vacation with great views!

Blue Heron Shack
Susan’s place is cute and cozy on a beautiful waterfront property. It is a perfect couple retreat. The hosts are friendly and helpful with detailed directions (the place is a little out of the way but convenient to nearby towns, restaurants, and island ferries). We love the area and had a relaxing stay.

The Boathouse
Really enjoyed my stay at the Boathouse Apartment! Beautiful surroundings on the water and a really cozy private one room apartment. Great utilization of space and perfect for an individual or a couple's retreat. Great location in close proximity to Morehead City and the boat harbor docks with plenty of shops and restaurants. William was a great host who was prompt and helpful in communications and was very accommodating. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a relaxing stay near the water in Morehead City!

Gone Coastal - 2BR/2BA Condo— Ocean & Sound Views!
To start I saw another review upset the view of the ocean wasn’t accurate. I’d like to say it’s totally completely visable and so nice to sit and drink coffee on and listen to the waves in the morning and evening. We will be booking here again! It was spotless and spacious! Loved the amount of beds and TVs for down time with kiddos. The balcony was so fun to hang out on! Less than 5 minute walk to the beach! Showers down at beach! Pool was SO cute love that the normal pool and kiddie pool are RIGHT beside each other. The kiddie pool is fenced seperate which as a mom of multiple is 🙌🏼 HUGE!! Close to fort Macon and cool shops! Very close to coffee, food lion bojangles and Walmart is only 18 min away! Splash pad very close as well!No elevator but the steps keep ya in shape and the kids loved going up and down them and up and down the hallways. No noisy neighbors very well kept up place! Loved the minimalist feel with decor kept it feeling very spacious! 2 full bathrooms! Easy clean up

Bogue Banks Retreat
We loved this place. It was clean, comfortable, it had everything that we needed, it’s walking distance to nice places to eat and drink, that are right on the water and it has a pool!!!

Lil' Dock/Riverfront apt./Late Sunday checkout!
Lil’ Dock was fantastic! We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend visit. Downtown New Bern is just a short drive away, and we also got the quiet river view that comes with not staying right in the city. We would absolutely stay here again!
Waterfront house rentals

Oak Blue
The home was very beautiful and well appointed. Anthony was extremely responsive and was very accommodating. The house is a great location with access to beaches, shopping and restaurants and was anywhere from 10-30 minutes away. I won't hesitate to book this location again!

4br Lux Oceanview • Prvt Beach Access • Elevator
If you’re considering a place to stay in Atlantic beach look no further than this. As a regular Airbnb user this is by far one of the best places we have stayed. Everything was so well thought out, absolutely spotless and we felt right at home. The attention to detail was spectacular as we did not have to bring hardly anything extra with us for the little things that are sometimes needed during a stay. You can walk to a great strip of restaurants, shops and even coffee. The closeness to the beach and over all quiet area made it even better. We will absolutely stay at Natalie’s place again as her hospitality was unmatched.

Oceanfront Oasis Emerald Isle, NC
Penny’s place was absolutely amazing! From the minute we walked in the door it exceeded our expectations! The home is beautifully decorated and exceptionally clean and fully stocked with all you need for a family beach vacation. Penny was very responsive with any questions we had and gave many great recommendations for places to eat and shop. Would highly recommended her home and we hope we can come back very soon!

Bay Breeze Retreat with Calico Bay Views
Loved the communication! Absolutely beautiful and just minutes from everything! Thank you for everything! The kids had an awesome time!

Waterfront Vacation Home away from Home
Jessie’s place was absolutely amazing. Extremely clean and very well appointed. We loved the pool and it was a very short walk to the beach. The location is very close to restaurants and public beach’s as well. The only issue was that our vacation was cut short by tropical storm Debbie. Can’t wait to rent with Jessie again in the future.

Cedar & Salt-Waterfront/Private Dock/Views/Pets ok
This home is absolutely gorgeous! The decor is amazing and the views are stunning. Beds were comfortable, plenty of towels and great kitchen with everything you need to cook a gourmet meal!

Shearwater-Oceanfront Home
Overall a great home to stay at, I would come back, the ocean front aspect can’t be beat, beautiful view to wake up to everyday, a lovely home

The Yates Cottage
We love staying at this place! This was our third visit and won’t be our last. Who can resist the large windows overlooking the Sound, the smell and feel of the water and the breeze? The screened in porch, especially when a rain shower came through, was a wonderful place to hang out, have coffee and enjoy the day. I called this our bluebird visit as there were so many around the Cottage. Watching the fishing boats, egrets and pelicans is such a simple but welcome pleasure. So many great memories to take away!
Waterfront condo accommodation

By The Sea: Gorgeous ocean views with balcony!
We had such a wonderful and relaxing stay. The condo was just as described and you couldn’t get any closer to the beach! It is literally short walk from the door and down one flight of stairs! High tide only came all the way up one day of our stay. The beach was gorgeous! Alan was very responsive to the few questions we had and very friendly! The condo is perfect for 2 people! Would highly recommend if you want a place close to the ocean!

Steps to Ocean & Pool, Shibumi Atlantic Beach, NC
We absolutely loved our stay! The room was perfect for my husband and I. There were so many thoughtful touches that we appreciated like the welcome gift, extra plush towels, fan, and super comfortable bed! The room was exceptionally clean as well which is always important. The room had everything we could have needed! We can’t wait to come again and stay here. Thank you so much for sharing your space with us.

Oceanfront First-Floor Condo with Stunning Views
We had the most incredible stay at this stunning beachfront Airbnb in North Topsail Beach! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the breathtaking views of the ocean. Waking up to the sound of waves and sipping coffee on the private deck as the sun rose over the water felt like a dream. The apartment itself is beautifully maintained and thoughtfully decorated, with a cozy coastal vibe that instantly makes you feel at home. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, and the living space was ideal for relaxing after a day in the sun.

MillionDollarView-Oceanfront 1BR-Updated!
If you like being right on the beach, this place is for you. Beautiful moon scapes at night. Very quiet area of the island.

Beachfront Condo ~Pool ~Hot Tub ~Relax & Play
Love, love, love! Everything as described, extremely clean and super easy access to the beach. Extra amenities all very thoughtful and so appreciated! All ramps to access beach which was perfect for my jogging stroller with my littlest! Highly recommend!!

Serenity by the Sea, cozy beachfront with a view
Was our first time at Topsail and Gina made everything so easy! Was very quick to respond to every message I sent and super nice! Place was so cute and clean and just as described and we loved it!! Wish we coulda stayed longer!! We will absolutely be back!!!!

Luxurious 3 bedroom condo
Anita was great reaching out to make sure our arrival was good, and that there were no issues. We have stayed numerous times over the last 5-6 years. It is a great location, plenty of amenities, and feels the comfort of home. I highly recommend her place you are planning to stay in the Beaufort/Morehead city area. She is one of the best host I deal with when using Airbnb!

Waterfront Condo Getaway
Andrew was very attentive. He very quickly answered texts. I highly recommend
