Great views and nice host!

The views from the balcony are absolutely stunning as you get to watch the sunrise every morning right from the balcony or the full-length kitchen window. Lisa is very responsive to messages and genuinely believes in guests having a comfortable and great experience at her place. We made wonderful memories as a family during our visit. Will definitely stay again if we get the chance!

Beautiful views!

Had a great time at the beach. The condo overlooks the ocean, and you can see the beach from the bedroom and kitchen. Plenty of room for our family of five! Lisa was very responsive.

Beautiful view

The condo had everything we needed for our vacation. I loved that linens and towels were provided. So helpful! The view from the balcony was perfect. I watched the sunrise every morning. It's a perfect view of it! We will most definitely be staying there again.

Northern Exposure week without kids!

The check-in and out process was very easy and Lisa was very responsive. We loved the property and the views. Just wish the deck was finished. Kitchen was stocked so that we could make meals ourselves with ease. If we ever make it back to topsail this would be our top choice!

Perfection!

Location on the beach is not exaggerated and couldn’t have been any more perfect! The condo was clean and cozy. The owner was very quick to respond to our questions and accommodated our request to stay another day and for early check in. Thank you for advertising the truth of your property and location setting.

Awesome Views and location

Location and the views are amazing. Communication with the host is spontaneous and was very helpful. We stayed during Hurricane Idalia and the host kept us updated with weather as well as potential flooding power outages. It is a 3rd floor condo so you have great views but also there is no elevator. The condo is tastefully decorated and clean. Condo is directly on the beach and close.

Balcony, Balcony, Balcony!

This property's shining feature is the balcony! It is so close to the water that you feel like you are on a cruise ship deck. We definitely spent more time outside-enjoying the breeze, dog and people watching, We even saw dolphins that I am pretty sure we would have missed had we not been outside enjoying the view already.

Relaxing Week

My husband and I had a great week of relaxing on the beach. This condo was plenty of room for the two of us. The host was in contact with me from the time I booked it, giving me a lot of helpful information. The keyless entry was great, not having to remember a key every time we went out. The place was clean and provided everything we needed. Outstanding views from the balcony, we were up two different days to see the sun rise.

December 2021

The views change every minute. Dolphins played in the waves as groups of pelicans flew overhead. We saw a whale at the pier. Plenty of beaches to hike on and noncrowded roads to ride bikes on. The condo was comfortable with impressive views. It was especially nice to see the sunrise from bed. You can not get any closer to the ocean. We had a very nice stay and highly recommend it to others.

Nice Condo on the Beach!

We enjoyed our stay at this condo directly on the beach. The view was amazing! The weather was great! We beached it everyday and we were very grateful for the handheld shower at the steps that made it very easy to clean us and all of our things off! We ventured out to the surrounding areas and enjoyed lots of great restaurants and activities like the Ghost Crab Hunt through Ecological Marine Adventures in Surf City. The kids learned how to catch and learned different things about ghost crabs. The kids loved it so much we went out the next two nights as a family hunting for ghost crabs at the condo. The condo owners were very helpful and attentive to any questions and concerns we had and had great communication with us!

Lovely location, not ideal stay

The view from the property is excellent and really right on the water. The beach is highly eroded and it is not possible to access the beach from the condo during mid to high tide (as stated in the listing). The appliances are quite dated which made cooking food during the tropical storm challenging. We spent several days dealing with a leaking ceiling and very high humidity in the condo. Lack of amenities was frustrating for this price point— no soap, trash bags, toilet paper to even get you started . Communication with host was good and we appreciated the updates on the storm and potential for flooding.

Lots of shells

The views from the bedroom window are great especially when the sun is rising. If you are not an early bird, you might not like that there are no curtains. I liked being able to sit up and see the orange coming over the horizon. You also get the same view from the kitchen. I saw porpoises every day!. There is a beach renourishment project going on, so know in advance that there is not much beach to walk during high tide.
