Welcome to Sound of the Sea West 301, a third-floor oceanfront 3-bedroom, 2-bath condo nestled within the beloved Sound of the Sea community in the heart of Emerald Isle. Here, the rhythm of the waves and sweeping Atlantic views set the tone for a truly relaxing coastal escape.

The Sound of the Sea Community offers amenities designed for both fun and tranquility. With direct beach access, you’re just steps from sun-soaked afternoons, shell hunting adventures, and peaceful sunset strolls along the shoreline. Cool off in the sparkling community pool, enjoy a friendly match on the tennis courts, or simply unwind while the ocean breeze does the rest.

Step inside the condo and discover a bright, thoughtfully refreshed space designed with comfort in mind. Featuring new beds, stylish furnishings, and fresh paint throughout, this beautifully maintained retreat blends modern touches with laid-back beach charm. The inviting living area includes a Smart TV - perfect for movie nights or catching up on your favorite shows after a day in the sun. Just beyond, a covered oceanfront deck with table and chairs invites you to sip your morning coffee, dive into a good book, or simply breathe in the salty air as waves roll in below.

The open living and dining space is ideal for bringing everyone together! Whether you’re sharing stories from the day, working on a puzzle, or enjoying a spirited card game, it’s a space designed for connection, laughter, and memory-making.

The well-equipped kitchen is ready to impress the chefs in your group. From quick beachside breakfasts to full family dinners, you’ll find everything you need to prepare and enjoy meals with ease. Additional conveniences include a dishwasher, microwave, and in-unit washer and dryer for effortless vacation living.

Sleeping Arrangements:

• Master Bedroom #1: Unwind in your spacious retreat featuring a King bed, Smart TV, and private full bath for added comfort and convenience. With direct deck access, you can step outside to greet the morning sun or wind down beneath the evening sky, all while listening to the soothing rhythm of the waves.

• Bedroom #2: This inviting King bedroom offers a cozy and restful atmosphere, complete with a Smart TV and easy access to the shared full bath. It’s the perfect blend of comfort and coastal charm for a peaceful night’s sleep.

• Bedroom #3: A charming bedroom with a Double and a Twin bed, along with a Smart TV for relaxed evenings in. With convenient access to the shared full bath, it’s a comfortable and flexible space, ideal for kids or additional guests, designed to make everyone feel at home.

Situated in the heart of Emerald Isle, you’re less than a mile from restaurants, grocery stores, mini golf, water park fun, and charming local shops.

The view and location of this condo was fantastic. The access to the beach with showers was well maintained. The beach itself was clean and not overly crowded. Lifeguard patrolled via jeep on the beach, While the furniture was a bit eclectic, the beds were comfortable, the kitchen well stocked and the condo was very clean upon arrival. The condo's proximity to shops and biking/walking path was a plus. The place made for a wonderfully relaxing week.

The location and views are fantastic. I did encounter some minor issues such as the coffee maker did not make/keep coffee hot.. I bought a new one and am leaving it behind. The master bath has a tub, but has to be filled by the shower head which is rather inconvenient. On the positive side location, views, easy access to the beach, pet friendly and the master bed is extremely comfortable.

The house/condo was nice. Not dirty, but needed some upkeep. The shower in the master badroom needs some work. The pull-up to turn the shower on was stuck in the up position, so when you turned the water on, if you weren't careful, your head got wet whether you wanted it to or not. The plastic or water proof mattress pads are handy when dealing with young children, but noisy and hot for an adult sleeping on that bed. We enjoyed sitting out on the deck lot. It was very private as this unit is kind of on a corner of the building. I would rent this unit again even with the minor items I mentioned above.

We were really happy with our stay! The room is right next to the elevator. It was bigger than we were expecting! The view from the patio was perfect!

Having the sight and sound of the surf right in front of us, with a porch that was protected from the sun most of the day.

We vacation to Emerald Isle every year and Sound of the Sea is a wonderful complex to stay. Our unit 301W, was nice making our trip an enjoyable one. Overall, the unit was clean, nicely decorated and situated well for a family of 6; It was a bit cluttered with small collectables, extra small tables and chairs, and the kitchen oddly stocked with kitchen/glassware. The furniture could use some updating or replacing, but again, overall a nice unit with a beautiful view. We would rent again.
