Perfect location

Absolutely enjoyed our stay. The best location, only a few short steps from the beach and close to food and shopping.

Fifty is Fabulous

Celebrated my wife’s 50th birthday in this home with three other people and pet! The Coastal themes of furniture and decor were done very well! Clean! So close to the beach you can come back if you forgot something and not miss a thing!

Great Beach Getaway

We are local but had family coming from out of town so this was a perfect spot for everyone! The layout of the home offers great views, and there was plenty of space so we didn’t feel on top of each other. We had games and a fully stocked kitchen (and working grill) for meals, and was walking distance to a few fun spots. With the beach right outside the door and plenty of chairs, towels, and accessories it was exactly what we needed! Max was super, very responsive, and start to finish process was straightforward.

Nice Beach Weekend!

This was a great location to stay in for a nice little getaway. It's within walking distance to some of the fun Topsail local spots, and right on the beach.

Surf City Beach House

The property was very clean and was well equipped with kitchen utensils and supplies. There was also beach chairs, towels, bikes and boogey boards to use. There were three houses being built very near the property while we were there, resulting in noise and limiting the ocean view we had expected when we first booked.

Great Family Unit

Beautiful Unit and very clean. Found the construction of additional properties in front of this a bit bothersome. But we were there for the beach so didn’t deal with the noise that much.

Wonderful house!

This house was beautiful with amazing views! Great location with it being close to town but far enough that the beach wasn’t crowded. The easy beach access was great for our dogs and everyone that stayed at the house.

Our family had a wonderful stay - steps from the beach and plenty of space to spread out! Close to all our favorite restaurants. Appreciated the option to use the bikes that were available as well as the sun shade! Clean & cozy - thank you for a great week of unwinding!

Family beach trip

Family long weekend stay. Great house! Lots of amenities. Bicycles, boogie boards, grill, chairs. Only negative was view of trailers towards beach. View of beach can't be seen without trailers in sight at all.

Great place

Super place to stay during the Christmas holiday! Beautiful view of the ocean and had all the amenities one could possibly need.Did have an issue with the heater when we arrived. It was 45 degrees inside and the heater was turned off. We contacted the manager and the owner and we were able to figure out how to reprogram the unit. They were very nice about it and the communication was great. We saved them a repair man trip. The house was super clean and we would love to come back and stay again!

Perfect Beach Getaway

This was a perfect place weekend getaway with your best friend. Very Cozy, thoughtful amenities, clean, private, steps away from the ocean, easy walk to the pier. I would definitely come back. Caution to anyone who has trouble getting up stairs though, there are a lot but if you're all about getting those steps in, this is where its at!

Wonderful Beach Stay

This place was wonderful! It was immaculate upon arrival. While we brought our dog, I am often wary of beach homes that allow pets as some have strong odors and/or evidence of previous pets. This place was absolutely top-notch and didn’t have any odors or evidence of previous pets. I was incredibly pleased.The location of this property gave us a beautiful view of the ocean, and it was such a short walk to the beach! Unfortunately, the view will be impacted soon by construction, but the beach walk is still incredibly short and makes for a really relaxing experience.The home is tastefully decorated. It was nice that the kitchen had actual glasses, not just plastic as we occasionally find at rental properties. They had ample dishware, storage containers, and extra seasoning. Towels and sheets included were just one additional convenience! Our kids also really enjoyed the bicycles. The outdoor shower is very basic and a bit rusty, but would absolutely not deter us from staying again. We have been visiting Topsail for the last 16 years and this is one of our favorite places so far!

Great condo in Surf City!

What sets this VRBO apart from others in which we've stayed is the very thoughtful attention to providing everyday essentials (coffee pods/creamer, detergent/dryer sheets, soap/shampoo/bodywash - even some snacks and drinks! The condo was immaculate, and the appliances are all new and in great condition. The kitchen has everything you need in terms of cookware. They even have tupperware containers. Previous reviews mention trailers on the property between the condo and the beach. They are gone. It appears they might be clearing that land for future development. We would definitely stay here again!

Luxurious Stay at the Beach With Dogs!

This property was just beautiful! Wonderfully furnished but not "too fancy". We loved that we could bring our 2 dogs without additional fee. Yes, there are lots of stairs (first floor has to be elevated due to proximity to the beach) but we loved the fact that unlike other VRBO rentals, everything was included - not just linens, towels and beach towels but also soap, shampoo, detergent pods, etc. Outdoor hose and shower were greatly appreciated. Perfect ocean views from the main level deck. Kitchen was updated and well stocked. Max and the team were VERY responsive to our slight problem with the door lock and available immediately via app and text. WiFi easy to access and lots of streaming channels we don't even have at home :) The 3rd floor master suite was just beyond wonderful! Quick walk to the beach. We had perfect weather Oct 5-9 so just a great time here!

Great stay at the beach!

This is a very nice property. It is clean, beautifully decorated and has views of the beach. It’s the perfect distance from shopping and restaurants. The owner is very nice. Check-in and check-out were smooth. The beds and showers were great! There just a couple things to note: there are a couple of shabby looking trailers between the property and the beach. Your focus will be drawn to the gorgeous view of the ocean but some folks might be disappointed by this. Do not let this dissuade you from renting this place! The great owners, price point and amenities far out-weigh a casual glance at the trailers. The only other thing that I would change is that we only had one dish towel in the kitchen. For 6 ladies who used that kitchen a lot over one weekend, it would have been nice to have a few extra dish towels. Aside from those little things, it was amazing. I would love to stay here again.

Family Stay - Week of

Overall a nice and comfortable property. Here are a few suggestions for improvement: 2nd King bedroom - curtain over sliding door is semi transparent. Allows the adjacent neighbors to see in when lights are off. Consider an opaque curtain. Cleaning - on the second level we swept up a lot of dust and hair from previous occupants. Including dog hair that was on the floor and couch. We did not bring any pets. Included items - we found out after arriving that a nice beach shade was provided. This was a great benefit but it would have been good to know this ahead of time as we would not have brought our large 10x10 collapsible canopy. Towel racks - when we arrived there was a non functioning towel rack in the lower level bedroom. Besides this there were too few towel racks in general for the number of possible occupants.

Nice beach front property

Comfortable unit within a larger structure. All the modern conveniences, good kitchen, comfortable beds and a great location. Host was very responsive and we had no issues. Good for 5 or 6 guests. I’d stay there again.
