Great House

My family enjoyed a wonderful week at the beach staying at Cassimir West. The location of the neighborhood can't be beat as it's close to restaurants, grocery stores and the cute town of Swansboro. The house being right on the beach provides excellent views and you can be on the sand in no time. It was a great stay for both the kids and adults and we hope to return one day.

Great home great location

A wonderful home to host a large family gathering. House isn’t perfect, but it still gets a 5-star review because it’s so comfortable and laid out very nice for a large group. Very family friendly. The downstairs area for the kids is great. Beach is perfect.

Annual family vacation

Cassimer West is a wonderful oceanfront duplex. It was roomy enough for our family of eleven. The only concern we had was the kitchen drawer containing kitchen tools was stuck, probably due to beach moisture, and we were unable to ever get it opened. I would certainly recommend this rental!

Property is super nice, love the pool area and kids loved the game room. The neighborhood is really nice and even found some deer and bunnies hoping around.Only things to share is that more than 3 cars is almost impossible if someone occupies the other house, may need to park at pool. Also the beach is super busy so set up shop early and you will have an awesome day!

Great Location for Beach Getaway

This duplex was located right on the beach! From the living room you could see the ocean. The unit was spacious and had a well stocked kitchen. The downstairs garage was converted into a billiard room and we loved spending time down there in the evenings. If you are looking for a house right on the ocean this is the place for you!

Vacation July 2023

Great location! Nice neighborhood, oceanfront and short walk to pool ( which could have been kept a little cleaner) House was beautiful and kitchen had everything we needed ( one more big pot would be useful) You have to go outside to get to game room, which would be fine if kids are older. We had some plumbing issues ( which happens) and owners were very responsive and sent someone out quickly. Great vacay!

Emerald Isle Beach Vacation

Check-in was easy, kitchen fairly well equipped, but could use additional food storage containers. The heating element on the clothes dryer needs to be replaced, took forever to dry towels. The stairs inside the house are very steep and narrow, very dangerous.You need to hold onto the railing going up and down the steps.

Kyle & Paige are amazing! Very quick to respond! Checked on us when there was a storm and brief power outage. Kept us updated and answered all questions timely. We had never been to Emerald Isle, and we found this house to be perfect for us! Right on the beach! Nice sun decks to sit on. Plenty of sleeping space for all 10 of us! We will definitely go back!

Very nice VBRO!

The property is perfectly located on the Emerald Coast in a lovely, quiet neighborhood and on the beachfront with magnificent views. The owner was extremely responsive to our few queries. Be warned, however, that the stairs are steep for an elderly person so plan on anyone who can't manage stairs well to use the bedroom on the lower floor. Parking is also tight but manageable. Overall very highly recommended. Thank you!

On the Beach

Overall a nice place to stay. Right on the beach. House was clean. There was a knocking noise 2 of the three days we were there that could be heard all day and night long in the downstairs bedroom and two upstairs bedrooms, but we could not pinpoint what was making the noise. Kitchen was stocked ok, large tables was nice. Major draw back was the only way to get to the game room was to go outside.

Beautiful with small flaws

The property was gorgeous, we loved the house and had a great time. Stunning beach! We even saw deer and a beautiful rabbit, very unusual to see wildlife at the beach. Things not listed in the details: there is a whistle buoy right offshore that makes an eerie sound 24/7, in pretty frequent intervals. You become accustomed to it but not ideal. The WiFi has a sign in required, which is a little intrusive and prevents things like Google Chromecast from being used. And just a heads up, the kids bedroom is on the first floor and the rest of the bedrooms are upstairs, you can figure that out from the listing but it's worth thinking about ahead of time.

Great Place

Wonderful place right on the beach. Two families with kids stayed for a week. The house and it’s location was great. Easy Access to the grocery store about miles away an in a closed community with no busy roads. We enjoyed mornings and evenings on the back deck overlooking the ocean. Everything was clean on arrival and the house was generally new with just the normal wear found in any beach house rental. We cooked all our meals and the kitchen was well stocked with cookware, utensils, etc to cook and feed for 10. The community pool was also an easy walk. We found a few issues with the house, but the owners and property manager were very quick to respond and did a great job making things right with very little disruption to our vacation. One minor thing which we discovered while there was that the community beach access for Spinnaker’s Reach was a few houses away, so this section of beach would get a bit crowded mid-day (around 12:00 to 3:00). But since this house had direct and easy access, we never had an issue claiming a spot. I would recommend this place and would certainly stay here again. Thanks Kyle and Paige!
