This 4 bedroom, 4 bath vacation rental located in Emerald Isle is sure to please even the most discriminating vacationer. It offers you everything you need to enjoy a relaxing weekend at the beach.
This particular unit is the West side of a Duplex. So if you have a large group and the East side is available you can stay right next door to the rest of your group, literally.
The property is managed by Emerald Isle Realty, a company with an outstanding reputation. It is nestled high in the second row dunes and does afford some ocean views. Enjoy the sights and sounds of beach life while relaxing on both the covered and open decks.
Barometer Soup West has not one, but two master suites. One of which sports a jacuzzi to facilitate your complete rejuvenation. Of course it has the normal creature comforts like central air/heat, dishwasher, laundry, microwave, and telephone. If you need to get online, no worries this beach house has high speed wireless Internet access. The entire house is beautifully decorated.
When you get back from a salty day at the beach there is a hot/cold outside shower to wash off the sand and salt. The house is non-smoking, and does not allow pets.
This weekly rental in Emerald Isle will have you planning your next vacation before you even leave. The only review I could find online was from someone who made their first trip here, and they loved it!
My husband & I rented Barometer Soup West along with 4 other friends. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the house iteself as well as the beautiful beach right across the street.
The house was perfect- kitchen fully stocked with all the dishes, pots/pans, & cooking utensils we needed; large kitchen table for family dinners; bedrooms were nicely decorated; large outdoor deck with picnic table & rocking chairs; outdoor shower is perfect for after the beach; plenty of parking space in the driveway (4+ cars).
The only “negatives” of the house would be the “game room” downstairs- kind of random; we never used it. There is a downstairs full bathroom by the game room that we never used either, but may be perfect for children. Lastly, the living room space is relatively small for the size of the house/# of bdrms. However, we spent all our time at the beach or on the outside deck, so it wasn’t an issue for us.
The biggest surprise to me was the beach itself. I’m from Virginia Beach, only a 4 hr drive, but the beaches of Emerald Isle are completely different- in a good way. The sand is white & very soft. The water was a pretty green color (I guess where Emerald Isle gets it’s name…) & the temperature of the water was perfect (very warm, but still refreshing). My husband even lucked out with a couple days of good waves.
The beach access is VERY close to Barometer Soup- I’d say a 1 minute walk from the driveway to the sand. A wonderful trip, we can’t wait to come back next year!
As you can see, Barometer Soup West and Emerald Isle are a winning combination for your vacation.
Just a heads up, this property is booking fast for 2010. I noticed it is already booked for half of May and most of July. So don’t snooze on this one, you will lose out on a great time. Booking information can be found here.

are there any of the duplex open on both sides in july 2-9 or 3-10 would need at least 4bed-4bat
thanks! let me know asap!
Hi Jenny,
I’m sure there are plenty of them open, if you book now. Otherwise, they’ll all be rented. If you’re serious about getting one, you may want to call a management company like Bluewater, Emerald Isle Realty. or Sun-Surf. If you explain your situation, I’m sure they can help out. Good Luck, Jason Tupper
