Beach paradise at Serenity Point - steps from ocean, sound & pool

Reviews say this place has everything! It’s the perfect home to unwind and connect with loved ones at the coast.

This cozy, newly remodeled townhome sleeps 5-6 and is at the south end of Topsail Island at Serenity Point. You’ll be surrounded by the sea, just steps from the private beach access to the ocean, the community pool, and the calm waters of the sound.

The home has 2 bedrooms plus a sleeping loft that kids and teens love (3 beds total). There are 2.5 baths, plus a large outdoor shower.

This area is loved for its long quiet beaches, tall dunes, magical sunsets, starry nights, thriving nature, great shore fishing, and the gorgeous 2 mile walk around the “Point” or end of the island.

Most essentials, beach chairs and gear are supplied so it’s easy to be here! It’s a Sunday to Sunday rental during the summer (less traffic than Saturday’s). I’m the owner and do all the property management and communication to ensure it’s the best vacation.

Shared spaces:

The living room has two comfortable couches, a desk and plenty of your favorite games.

The back deck looks out to dunes, wildlife and sea - relax here with your morning coffee and share evening meals at the spacious outdoor table.

At the front of the house, a covered porch with rocking chairs gives you a break in the shade.

Sleeping spaces:

Upstairs, the master bedroom has a queen bed, the hallway bedroom has a queen bed, and the open loft has a full bed. All beds are new and very comfortable with memory foam. The loft is really perfect for older children who can climb a short ladder. (Not recommended for young children or grandparents).

We provide linens for the three beds, which are professionally laundered and wrapped for highest sanitation. We have a pack and play crib (no sheets) and an air mattress.

Bathrooms:

There are 2.5 bathrooms so three showers total including a large outdoor shower. We provide bath towels, hand towels, wash cloths and kitchen towels (they are professionally laundered). You'll need to bring your own beach towels.

Desk spaces:

Two desks and fast 5G/2G wifi with boosters throughout the home.

Kitchen:

Enjoy our all new appliances in the remodeled kitchen and a complete set of cookware and beach house essentials (including a large crab boil pot, indoor electric grill, griddle, large roasting pan, blender, toaster, coffeepot and French press, and a slow cooker). We’ve installed a water purifier and provide reusable water bottles so there’s no need to buy jugs of filtered water. We have ice trays and a countertop ice maker but bring bag ice if you go through lots.

Beach gear:

We provide beach chairs, a small cooler with ice packs, beach bags, beach wagon, boogie boards, kid beach toys, large beach blanket, corn hole boards, bocce ball, and two sun shade/umbrellas. There are two hoses at front/back of house to rinse off gear, and a hammock for naps.

Fun:

Plenty fun is to be had a few miles away at Topsail Beach center, from a retro arcade, putt putt and old school skating rink to a traditional NC seafood restaurant (Breezeway), two delis (Cora’s Deli and Larry’s Delique), three ice cream shops, a coffee shop/wine bar (Quarter Moon) and an upscale restaurant with outdoor bar (Beach Shop and Grill). You can rent bikes and ocean rec equipment in town.

Streaming:

We have three new Vizio smart TVs in living room and each bedroom with streaming apps to log into your personal accounts. We do not have cable or local TV channels. (But you can smartcast to the TV from any app playing in your smartphone or laptop).

Other:

This townhome is a part of a two unit duplex, and this unit is side B. No pets or Emotional Support Animals are allowed to stay in or visit this property to keep it allergy free for guests and owners. For security purposes only, there are smart doorbells at the front and back doors, which turn on only when activated. Self checkin and keyless entry via our smart lock makes it easy and safe to access the home.

The quiet neighborhood has its own private beach access with stairs. For a handicap-accessible ramp to the ocean, go to public access number 18 just outside our neighborhood. Access to the calm waters of the sound is a equally close to the house (it has handicap-accessible entrance and is great for younger kids).

The community pool is just across the street from our house and is open Friday of Memorial Day through early October (tropical storm dependent).

When you go on vacation, you want to stay somewhere nicer than how you normally live and this house absolutely lives up to the hype. Here are some highlights of our trip: the underside the house had a shower stall (which I'm sure is standard of beach houses normally in this area) but she had shampoo, conditioner, and body wash as well as a loofah already inside as well as a hammock to air dry before entering the house she had a smart lock on the door so all you do is enter the code and it unlocks, no key needed every type of kitchen equipment you could think to need she had available in the kitchen as well as cleaning supplies The bed sheets & mattresses were amazing and it felt as though we were sleeping on clouds (very interested in finding out where she got the bedding). She has a dry-clean service deliver the bedding and you make your own bed that way you know for sure that everything is clean She had a diffuser in the master bedroom with different essential oils to choose from The master bathroom had recently been updated and was very nice (I have a thing about bathrooms and showers and hers was amazing) and all the decor was very fresh and beachy, nothing felt out of date We were all very sad to have to leave and hope that in the future we can have a beach house half this nice!! Thank you to Shannon, our very first family beach trip was a hit :)

We had a wonderful weekend here. The property manager was very responsive to our questions about the area and property. It's within walking distance of the beach and easy access for kayak/SUP fishing. Neighborhood was lovely and quiet. It was a great weekend away. Would book again.

Great place!
This is a very nice place to stay to enjoy the beach. The location is great, about halfway between the ocean and the sound, so it’s an easy walk to enjoy either. The neighborhood is great; we were even able to take advantage of the pool even though it was late in the season and a bit chilly. The house was very clean and provided everything you could need for a week. We would definitely stay there again.

Secluded, private beach, excellent location
We visited Topsail and stayed here for around a week in the middle of September. The location is amazing, located on the southern end of the island. Peaceful, quiet - a great place for our little family to spend some time together and relax. The location had quick access to both the beach and the sound side, giving us both an ocean experience and calmer waters in the sound. Communication was easy and straightforward, home was clean.

Great hidden spot
This is our second year renting here and has been fantastic. Location is perfect with a great view, sparsely populated beach access and pool we had to ourselves fairly often. House is very clean and well furnished, and the owners are very responsive and accommodating. The island itself is growing and there are plenty of great spots for seafood and things to do.

Perfect family trip!
We had an amazing, peaceful vacation at this awesome home. It is a short walk to the beach access, directly across from the pool, and the sound is right down the street. The house is just as pictured, very nicely decorated, and fully stocked with everything you could need. The house was also very clean! Thanks for sharing your amazing home with us.

beautiful house & beach
We loved our time staying here for our family vacation. The house is beautiful, clean & had practically everything we needed. The pack ‘n play was perfect for our youngest & saved space in our own car driving down. Everything you could possibly need for the beach, the house already had. The toys were perfect for our boys & our youngest loved his wagon rides to & from the beach every day. You seriously can’t beat the location, it was so close to the beach & sound and just steps away from the community pool. We loved hanging out on the back deck looking to the ocean. It’s literally the last row of houses on the island. It was so cool to walk from the beach to the tip of the island & around to the sound, especially at night. The beach was beautiful too, so clean & not crowded at all (early June). Shannon was a dream to book with & so easy to communicate with. All of her food recommendations were delicious & she even gave us some activities to do for rainy days or in case the kids needed to get out of the sun for a little. We will definitely be back someday 😊

Beautiful house and location
We had a wonderful beach getaway. The house was very thoughtfully stocked and had everything we could have needed. The location is perfect, a few houses over to the beach or a few houses the other direction to watch the sunset over the intercoastal waterway. A great place to relax and spend time with loved ones.

One of the best homes we have stayed in at Serenity Point. Very clean and nice. Very well-equipped kitchen. Just across the street from the pool, and close access to both the ocean side and sound side of the island. The property manager checked in with us multiple times to make sure everything was okay.

We go to Topsail a couple of times a year. Serenity Point is our favorite spot, we have rented several of the units and this was one of the nicest ones we have stayed in. The hosts were most accommodating and the condo was well furnished, clean and comfortable. Excellent experience, we will rent this one again!

Classy, Clean and Quiet
We visited for a special occasion, and the tastefully decorated property and stunning location at the south end of the island did not disappoint. This is the best appointed rental property I've ever visited, from an extremely well-stocked kitchen to an aromatherapy diffuser in the master! I would return in a heartbeat, in large part because of the attentiveness, hospitality, and kindness of the host.

Wonderful weekend
Had a great weekend. This home is perfectly appointed. Extremely clean. Well stocked kitchen. Great back deck. We loved it. A couple things to weigh in your decision. When you arrive you have to make your bed up so be prepared for that. If you are the type of person that wants the windows and doors open to hear the sounds of the ocean this house has no window screens. It you are a tv person make sure you bring your steamjng sign ins. No cable or local tv. If these are not important to you this house is perfect. We truly enjoy our visit
