Fabulous! Beach Front! Flexible! Location! Luxury!
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful beach home! The space was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The location was perfect, just steps from the beach, and the host was incredibly kind and responsive. We felt right at home and would definitely love to return. Highly recommend!

Oceanfront home w/ Relaxing views! Pet Friendly
We absolutely loved this Air B&B!! It was beautifully decorated and was even more spacious than the pictures seemed. Erin always responded quickly and we were invited to check in early because the house was ready early, which we really appreciated after driving over 10 hours to NC. Beach views are beautiful!! And you are right on the beach. 10/10 would highly recommend

The Salt Box Beach House of Surf City, NC
Staying at this Airbnb felt like a true escape. The location couldn't have been better – being mere steps from the beach was such a treat, allowing for spontaneous walks and the calming sound of the waves. It was wonderful to find such a genuinely dog-friendly place; my pups absolutely loved it, which made the stay even more enjoyable for me. The entire atmosphere was incredibly relaxing, and I found the off-season to be a particularly lovely time to visit, with beautiful weather and a sense of peacefulness. The property itself had everything I could possibly need, making it easy to settle in and feel comfortable. Amy was fantastic – always communicative and helpful, ensuring a smooth and easy stay. While there were plenty of options for things to do in the area, I also appreciated the opportunity to simply unwind and work remotely in such a serene setting. The upper deck was my favorite spot for getting sun many hours of the day. I’ve stayed in many airbnbs and this is a favorite!

"TopsailVacay" Pet Friendly Home, Walk to Beach!
We had a fantastic stay at Michelle’s place. The house and amenities exceeded our expectations. Having rented quite a few places in the Topsail/Surf City area, my wife and I agreed that this was a top favorite. Will certainly look here for future stays.

Colorful 3 bdr - beach & intracoastal access, pool
We had a fantastic stay! The place is private yet close to all the fun on the island, with easy access to the beach—just a short five-minute walk across the street. The home is beautifully furnished, with comfy beds, a well-stocked kitchen, and spotlessly clean throughout. The air conditioning kept everything perfectly cool, and we loved relaxing on the deck on with peaceful views of the sound. Our grandkid had a blast testing his fishing skills from the dock, and our cat adored watching the boats across the intracoastal waterway. There’s also a nice pool, quiet surroundings, and good parking. Everything you need for beach days is provided—you really don’t need to bring a thing! Kristin is an amazing host—super responsive, thoughtful, and helpful with great suggestions. Thank you again for a wonderful and relaxing stay!

Walk to N Topsail with Marsh Views & Dog friendly
I highly recommend this house! It is a short 5 minute walk to the beach. The host is very responsive. Overall, we had a great time - loved the house and its location to the beach!

Pool Heat is ON; come swim with us! Putting Green
Tickled Pink was the perfect house for our family. I have never stayed in a rental that was stocked so well, kitchen and bathrooms. We always had enough plates, cups and towels. The house and all the activities in the pool area were wonderful for all the grandkids to enjoy. Pool was heated and appreciated on mostly cool days the beginning of June. Location was quiet and the beach not crowded. We had a wonderful stay at Tickled Pink and highly recommend this well managed property. Thank you for making our family vacation a great experience.

The Beach Hive - Oceanview Condo - 2bdrm
The condo was the perfect vacation spot for a couple and our 3 kids. Love the upstairs space & decor. Pool and beach were walking distance. The beach was clean. The area was not overly crowded. Private entrance, safe. Would recommend for a family! Chris was also very responsive & helpful. Thanks for a great family vacation!

Sit n Sea Oceanfront View, Pool - Surf Condos
Great stay for our family, bunk beds were a big plus, and beach chairs, boogie board, and pool noodles left were an awesome bonus.

Family-Friendly Resort on Topsail Island
It was what we needed. we traveled there for a wedding it was cozy and convenient.we were able to spend a few hours on the beach and the access point to the beach was really convenient.

New! Oceanfront 2bd/2ba - Penthouse View!
We enjoyed our stay here! The beach supplies were amazing, and we had everything we needed for traveling with our toddler. One thing to note is you do have to put the sheets on the beds yourself. That wasn’t clear in the listing, and we waited until we were exhausted to do it later that night which wasn’t very fun. But very minor action in what was a wonderful family vacation with great views!

Luxurious 7BR Beach Home w/ Ocean Views, Pool, Hot
Absolutely Perfect Beach Getaway! We had such an amazing time at this beach house! The place was spotless when we arrived—so clean and well taken care of. It’s a beautiful home with a really open, relaxing feel and the views were just stunning. Waking up to that every day was such a treat. The location is perfect—just a short, easy walk to the beach, which made it super convenient. We also loved having the pool and hot tub; it was the perfect way to unwind after a day at the beach. Our host, Neil, was fantastic—super responsive, kind, and helpful from start to finish. They really went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. All in all, it was one of the best Airbnb experiences we’ve had. Our whole family cannot wait to come back!

Oceanfront home- pool, playground, 3 suites, beach
I’ll mirror everyone else - hate to give this place away. We went for mother day day and birthdays with 2 little ones and my Mother in law. Super well setup for kids. Nice clean pool that gets sun in afternoon. Right next to park. Balconies are great and super well appointed for kids (or families in general). We loved this place. Lots to do even with a few days of rain.

SeaSound Gold: Topsail Island
We loved staying here for the weekend. It was so clean and well maintained. It’s the perfect location between the beach and the sound. More than enough linens, towels, and amenities were there for our family. The binder full of recommendations was such a great touch. We loved it so much we booked it again for next year. Thank you M&M for a wonderful stay!

Oceanfront NTB * Private Pool * Hot Tub * Elevator
This is a special place - relaxing, peaceful, beautiful and accommodating. Everything was just as described and the pictures accurately represent the property. Fully stocked kitchen, crock pot and all. The space is nicely appointed and there were several places inside and outside the home our group of 9 could easily congregate. Incredible location, you really don’t even need to leave the house. We would love to visit again.

Spectacular View Ocean Beachfront Access Pool
We enjoyed our stay at Bee and Joe's. It looked just like the photos and everything was so clean. We took our 2 yo and 8 yo and they absolutely loved it. It felt like home and the kids room was the perfect setup with the bunk beds and trundle. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony and watching the ocean from the condo. We could also see the ocean from the main bedroom windows. The washer and dryer were very handy. The location is amazing and close to so many places to eat. It's very close to Surf City and other great surrounding areas. The beach is literally steps away and made it so easy to go back to the condo if we happened to leave something behind or someone had to use the restroom. Bee and Joe were very responsive. Highly recommend and we would definitely stay here again.

New Home in N. Topsail-Pet Friendly/Elevator
Amazing stay! The place was spotless, cozy, and exactly as described, everything we needed was right there. It felt like a home away from home. We unexpectedly had trouble with our truck not starting, and the host went above and beyond by allowing us to leave it there until it could be towed. She was incredibly responsive, kind, and understanding throughout the whole situation. That kind of hospitality made a huge difference in our trip. We felt completely taken care of. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an stress-free, comfortable place to stay!

Oceanfront | Updated + Gorgeous Views + Linens!
Perfect location. Everything was clean and it was well-stocked. Check-out instructions were extremely minimal, it was nice to not feel like we had to spend hours leaving like some other places. It is right next to a public beach access, so there was a lot of foot traffic, but the people moved on quickly and settled further down the beach. I wish there were screens in the windows so that we could have opened them, but the sliding door does have a screen which was nice. The owner was very responsive and friendly. We really enjoyed ourselves!

Kick back at the Slackin Shack!
The Airbnb was extremely clean and ready for our stay. Mikey was very helpful during our entire stay with his quick responses. Thank you again for letting us stay in your boat!

Family Fun, Amazing Coastal Views, 3 Min to Beach!
Nicole’s place is super cute, tastefully decorated. It was stocked with every utensil we needed to be cooking in most all our meals PLUS containers for leftovers. Linens were cotton, no poly itchy junk. Loads of beach towels to borrow and all fun stuff like boogie boards and chairs and a CART to pull it all! Laundry was awesome to be able to do and she has a vacuum to clean up anything that got into the house even after we could use the outdoor shower below. The dead end street with a private view of the marsh was gorgeous. Think cranes and blue herons to drink your coffee with. Walk to the beach was close enough to run home and use the bathroom if needed. So convenient! The house was spotless, thank god. One and only downside for our teens was that there really isn’t anything close to “do” aside from beach. Which was exactly why WE loved it. They rode bikes for fun. Restaurants are a drive. Cute Tiki Bar that’s family friendly a block away. Grocery 15-30. Skip Rick’s!

Serenity at Bond Cove
If you’re looking for a getaway that’s not far from the beach or restaurants but still want your peace away from civilization this was great place to relax and hang out with the family or friends.

Sunshine on the Sound w/ Hot tub
We chose Jennifer's place for many reasons and we sure did it right! We were celebrating a birthday and made an extended Memorial Day weekend out of it! Jennifer's place is amazing. It was the perfect beach house for us! She has top quality in furnishings, bedding, and accents! The hot tub was an added bonus :-) The location was great as well never more than a 30 minute drive around the island to get to shops, restaurants, and fun things to do! And the short walk down the street to the beach made it even better! We highly recommend her place if you are considering it! You will be as satisfied as we were! Thank you Jennifer for opening up your beautiful beach house!

Topsail Ruby Reef

SeaBreeze,OceanFront 1st Floor N.Topsail Beach, NC
Great location. Wish there was more to do in the area. Lovely walks around island. Jennifer was extremely helpful when it came to the tides. My husband and I had a wonderful stay.
