Ocean Vibes II- oceanfront home w/ stunning sunrise views, steps from the beach!

Being located on the beach was great but the cleanliness of the house was not. There were stains on the couch from 10 years ago, hair left on the shower, coffee stains left on the “clean” coffee mugs in the cabinet, knobs missing from the stove. There were cockroaches outside every night, I would recommend a company to spray outside. The sand on the driveway is ridiculous, so bad the picnic table is completely covered in sand. Definitely needs to be updated.

Wonderful stay for our group of 7; 4 adults, 3 kiddos ages 4, 10, & 15.Our favorite part is being right on the beach. There were no sandbags in use so there was no obstruction, access was perfect! Our other-other favorite part were the sandbars! What fun for the kids! And the tide pools, ugh! So warm and calm in July, a place where our 4 year old traveler to find a love for the ocean, he wouldn’t go near the water last year the water was very rough when we visited a different beach last year. He would say in his little boy voice over and over again, “Top Sail beach, the best beach of my world”. So precious!We had a great time watching the guys fish and even joined in from time to time. Do mind the listing and take a 4x4 vehicle due to the sand driveway.I can’t think of a single poor experience during our stay, maybe the grocery store on a Saturday night, the day the entire population tuned over and they’re all hungry and tired from traveling lol… that was wild . Even then it wasn’t terribly painful if you don’t mind a little chaos. Finally, the locals are so friendly!! They were so accommodating and pleasant. We can’t wait to go back again! Just FABULOUS 10/10 if you want to beach-bum, cook your favorite foods, and never wan to leave lol! I will leave some photos, although I don’t have a ton because I was too busy enjoying the moment. Thank you for a wonderful experience!“Top Sail beach, best beach of my world!” -Archer S.

We had a blast! The place was great, enjoyed! Thanks!!

Love North Topsail! The location was great, but the cleanliness of the house when arriving was a little concerning. Don’t get me wrong I like the house it was exactly where I wanted to be.

Our stay was great! The beach access and fishing left nothing to be desired this time, BUT, that's nothing that the owners can control; that's just part of having a house right on the beach and having a storm come through before your arrival. We did enjoy being able to fish from the deck other than getting caught in the sand bags. We had a great time despite that, and we would definitely consider coming again!! If you want beach and house, this is definitely your place!!! 10/10 for sure!!!

The house is very nice inside. No complaints with the actual house at all. However this house and several neighboring houses have huge sandbags between the house and ocean that are highly unattractive. These sandbags were not mentioned or pictured. We also discovered signs that says to keep off of l the sandbags and ten feet away from them so direct access to the beach is blocked. This is something that needs to be addressed by the city and the rental company before the houses are rented.

The communication? We got two addresses on the same emailed sheet. The information on that sheet was often at odds with what was on the frig. When does trash get picked up? Weren’t sure. It was overflowing when we arrived and wasn’t picked up until Monday. The good. On the beach (beach is actually slowly taking over the the house)! It was clean. Everything functioned well. Upon entering the front door, you walk into an entryway/stairwell. The stairs take you to the another “front door” at the bottom floor. However, at the bottom of the stair is another door that leads to underneath the house where everyone washes off the sand. There are no pictures of any of this space. Does it work? Yes. Is it pretty. Definitely not. Under the house, you are enclosed by all the X bracing of the pilings. These are all 2x12s. As adults, these are NOT easy to maneuver on your way to and from the beach. Back to the entryway. The space is enclosed, hot and the tiled stairway becomes full of sand. First floor. As described. Three small bedrooms. Two facing the ocean. On the second floor is the living area & kitchen. It is sufficient. Best word I can think of to describe the house. We found there were so many things missing. Knife sharpener? Nope. Cheese grater, no. The house sleeps 10, The table seats six. Small things. But Annoying. 3rd floor. Nice but warm. Thermostats would not go below 67. On the 3rd floor? Gets warm. All in all, it was sufficient.

Our family enjoyed our spring break at North Top Sail Beach. This home was amazing and perfect for our family. The best sunrises and direct access to the ocean was perfect!

All was fantastic except the stairs. We have bad knees so that was hard. Everything else was great!

This was a work fishing trip that we do every year. We have stayed at numerous locations on the NC Coast. This by far was the best and most successful trip we have had. We caught lots of fish from the shore. Being that close to the water was amazing. We will definitely be back, Lord willing.
