  Ana, we are so glad you had a great time with your family at West of the Moon! The property is so close, 30 yards away, to our beautiful Emerald Isle Beach and we provide a beach wagon, chairs, and large umbrella for our guests. We so look forward to your return.

  West of the moon is in a great location and it was nice to find a rental that didn’t require a week’s stay.

  There’s a set of 15 steps to get to the apartment so keep that in mind if you have issues with stairs or bring heavy items. There are some maintenance items and upkeep that need to be addressed so this is information only. The toilet is loose/rocky and the door in the bedroom with the full size loft bed will not close.

  To keep the humidity to any reasonable level the air units in each room must be kept on at all times and the temperature below 70 or your clothing and bedding will get damp.

  Recommend bringing your own towels (bath and beach) as those provided are small and have been heavily used.

  There was no laundry detergent and the washer shook badly.

  If budget is a concern then this rental will do. Flooring is all vinyl which holds up well to pets and sand. The unit is dated as others have said but for a comfortable bed and a place to stay out of the hot sun or rain then it will do.

  From the Owner: "Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re glad you appreciated the fantastic location, just 30 yards from the beach, and the flexibility of our 2-night minimum stay, which we know is important for many travelers.
  
  We always welcome input to help us improve. We’ve inspected the unit following your comments: the bedroom door does close properly, and the toilet seat is securely fastened. The A/C units in each room are effective at maintaining a cool, comfortable environment when used consistently, especially important in our humid beach climate. We do provide laundry detergent for guest use, and the washer has been checked to ensure it functions properly.
  
  We’re also reviewing the condition of the towels and will rotate or replace them as needed to meet guest expectations. Thank you for highlighting the comfort of the beds and the practicality of the vinyl flooring, ideal for sandy feet and pets.
  
  We appreciate you staying with us and hope to host you again in the future!"

  5/5

  We would stay here again. It is a duplex turned into 4 rentals, but it was roomy enough for 6 people and 2 dogs. The A/C was ice cold and had a separate air conditioner for each bedroom and living space. The location is great - only about 20 feet from beach access and 0.6 mile walk to shopping and food. The host responded to texts quickly. The people we met were all so nice. This is a rental and city I want to visit again.
