“I’ve been coming to Topsail Island for years and this truly was the absolute best vacation home I have ever booked” – Rebecca, April 2022
Welcome to The Zen Escape, a 3-bedroom, 2.5 bath oasis located directly on the beach in classic Surf City, NC. This is the ideal home to recharge and refresh with friends or family. It’s been specifically designed to provide the best experience possible.
"It’s very "zen"...people have told me that they become relaxed as soon as they arrive."
– Beata
"From the moment you open the door & look through to the three sliding doors overlooking the ocean, you KNOW you’ve just stepped into someplace special & won’t want to leave! I really don’t think you could get much closer to the water unless you stayed on a boat." – Jennifer
KITCHEN AND DINING:
Step through the front door of The Zen Escape and into the newly redone open-concept kitchen. Fully equipped with new stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, an ocean facing sink and a large eat-in counter island, this kitchen is designed so the chef can always see the ocean and enjoy the party!
Kitchen & Dining Amenities:
• Suite of Stainless Steel appliances
• Stocked kitchen & pantry
• Coffee Station with Drip, Keurig and Coffee Grinder
• Eat-in kitchen counter (seats 4)
• Formal Dining table (seats 8)
• Charcoal grill
• Outdoor seating for 8 in three different locations
Just beyond the fully stocked kitchen and pantry, the space opens up to the dining and living areas – all with expansive views of the ocean. Take your morning cup of coffee or grab a glass of wine or a Salty Turtle beer and step out onto the extensive balcony that features 8 captain’s chairs, placing you above the deck railing to take in those unobstructed views! This is the perch where you can wave to schools of dolphins plowing the waves or watch an amazing sunrise or sunset!
"The location can't be beat. The views were amazing. The house was great. We will definitely be back!" -Luke
LIVING SPACES:
You can also settle in to enjoy the evening or a rainy day in the cozy living room and luxuriate in the views, the beach-y vibe, and the beautiful décor. This is the perfect spot to play a board game or host a movie night!
Living Spaces Amenities:
• Samsung Smart TVs with Spectrum Live including the full Sports package and on demand in all bedrooms and living room
• Games & Books
• Washer/Dryer
• Central Heat/AC
"I didn’t think it could get any better than the pictures, but it honestly did. It was immensely clean, beautifully decorated, with views that cannot be beat…"- Rebecca, 2022
BEDROOMS AND BATHS:
And, after a long day spent in the sun, sink into a bed with freshly laundered linens and turn on your favorite movie. Each bedroom includes a Smart TV with Spectrum streaming, so the viewing options are endless. Fresh towels are provided for each of the bathrooms. If you happen to have a few extra guests, The Zen Escape has two additional mesh cots with mattresses. We have determined these are much more comfortable and more flexible than a sleeper sofa as they can be used in any room in the home - even on the deck if you’re the adventurous type!
Bedroom & Bathroom Amenities:
• Master oceanfront King bedroom with ensuite bathroom boasting an exquisitely tiled shower and deck access
• Bedroom #2 with King bed, ocean views from the window and direct front porch access
• Bedroom #3 with Bunk room with a Twin XL over Queen bunk and a Twin XL trundle
• Full Bathroom in hallway
• Travel Crib and High Chair
• Linens, towels, toiletries all provided
"We have stayed at many, many places. This one tops them all. Not only is it true ocean front property. It’s full of everything you need but your own clothes and tooth brushes!" – Nicole
OUTDOORS:
Outdoors -
The Zen Escape is also designed to accommodate every aspect of the outdoor experience. A particularly unique feature of this property is the 600 square foot covered and fenced in entertainment area under the house – with its own breathtaking views of the ocean!
This outdoor space features a charcoal grill for the chef in your group, along with pub seating for 8 people around a pub height table and an additional high-top long table which seats 8 that both face the ocean. You can play a rousing game of cornhole, get competitive with giant Jenga, or relax in the 6.75’ x 6.75’ Nordic whirlpool hot tub after a big day of sand and surf.
Your fluffy four-legged friends will appreciate the 10’ x 10’ shaded gravel garden that they can roam all within the confines of the fully fenced in space. With the beach as your backdrop, this is your coastal hideaway for rainy days or breaks from the mid-day sun. Note: On this level there’s also an additional half bath and laundry room, and a huge enclosed outdoor shower! No need to run upstairs to use the loo.
"I liked that it was fenced in so I didn't have to worry about my 1-year old trying to take off." – Jacqueline
Steps away is the beautiful Topsail Island coastline and the Atlantic Ocean with its crashing waves and endless views. For your enjoyment Zen provides beach towels, beach chairs, a beach umbrella, and a variety of beach toys so every day is the perfect Beach Day.
"Waking up to sunrise on the beach while having our pups with us was absolute heaven!" – Jules
THE LOCATION:
The Zen Escape is in the ideal location to explore Topsail Island. With restaurants and shops less than a 5-minute walk away, the opportunity to revel in the beauty of quaint and quiet Surf City is easy and accessible. Make sure to walk out on the pier to get the full experience!

• Fishing
• Golf
• Cycling
• Birdwatching
• Sailing
• Boating

GETTING HERE:
Fly into Jacksonville (OAJ) Airport and take a 20-minute drive to Topsail Island. Or, fly into Wilmington Airport, just an hour drive away and enjoy the scenic ride along the coastline. With either airport, you can rent a car, take an uber, or order a car service. RDU (Raleigh Durham International) is about 3 hours away.
The gravel driveway is overly spacious and can accommodate at least 6 cars, or even an RV. This single-family home means that all of the driveway space is accessible for the guests. No one else will be using the driveway but you!
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
Both bathrooms are brand new. New flooring has been installed throughout the home and it has been freshly painted, with new decor, new linens, new furniture, and new sheets and towels.
The Zen Escape provides the ideal beach house experience. Each group’s stay will also include a fully stocked kitchen and pantry, including spices and other essentials, laundry detergent, hand soap, body wash, shampoo and conditioner, toilet paper, and paper towels. Your stay here is designed for you to relax and decompress, with most of the preparation already done for you.
We are dog-friendly at The Zen Escape, but consider each dog on a case-by-case basis so please tell us about your pup. If you are looking to bring your fluffy friend, we request a $200 refundable pet fee. Plus, please provide us with some details so we can discuss our pet rules further (no dogs on the beds, please). We cap the pet stay at 2 dogs, and at this time are not equipped to allow cats in the home.
We do not offer discounts of any kind. We offer an extremely high level of service, flexibility and a ton of amenities not found in most beach rentals. If you have a specific request, we will do what we can to accommodate you.

Really impressed with all the supplies provided. Everything you need. We all had a great time.
5.0
This is our third time to The Zen Escape and it was absolutely wonderful as usual! We love the location because it is so close to the bridge for easy access on and off the island and just a few blocks from some of our favorite places but that part of the beach is always one of the least populated even in the busy summer months which is so nice. The house has everything you need which is great not to have to pack a bunch of stuff! We love sitting in the captains chairs on the back deck in the morning drinking coffee and in the evening drinking cocktails :) The owner and property manager are on top of everything so you never need to worry if an issue pops up because they take care of it immediately! We will definitely be back!!!

We loved every second we were there!! Would definitely stay there again!
5.0
With views that make you feel as if the water is directly beneath you and an oceanfront deck that allows you to take in the beauty and hear the ocean waves at all times, there is no way you won't feel zen here! The property itself had everything we needed and was very comfortable for our family of 5. It's close enough to the action of Surf City to be convenient but far enough to still feel the peace we crave on vacation.
This was our dogs' first beach trip, and they were in heaven! The fencing beneath the house led to a convenient and worry-free experience when they were outside with us.
We hope to return to this location in the near future as it was perfect for our family.
4.0
This home was in a quiet area and in between public access points so the beach area was not too crowded! The upstairs area was a nice size and beds were comfortable with ample drawer space. The view is incredible!
5.0
This home was everything we had hoped for and more. Breathtaking views of the ocean, easy and direct beach access, more amenities and useful items (the abundant beach chairs and umbrellas were a particular hit) in the home than we could use, and OUTSTANDING service by those who handed the rental before and during our stay. And while Surf City itself is very crowded and touristy (which we weren't fans of), the beach front for this home and those around it wasn't, as there isn't really a close public beach access. So while at the house, we didn't feel like we were in a crowded, touristy destination at all! And by driving only 15-20 minutes North for meals or shopping, we escaped the crushing crowds. We spent every day relaxing on the beach and enjoying the ocean, and watching others surf, play games and make their own memories too!
If you want a peaceful getaway with amazing and incredible views and beach access, and outstanding amenities and service, the Zen Escape is for you!

Property is immaculate and amenities are plenty. It was our 7th time here and we will keep coming back.

This home welcomed my whole family including 2 furbabies. We had an amazing week! The views from inside and out were phenomenal. The house was immaculate and so many amenities. It was so nice to not have to pack everything!
Everything is as pictured. The dog area was convenient for the pets and the gates kept this mom worry free all week, even though they were never left alone outside.
We hope to return and make this an annual vacation!

We loved our stay! Excellent communication and they were even able to accommodate an earlier check in (last minute). Stunning ocean front property in a great central location. Would definitely come back!
5.0
We enjoyed staying at this house with our family so much! We were able to bring our 2 dogs and stay comfortably. The house we thought would be a little bigger according to the photos but the bottom outdoor space makes up for the smaller rooms and guest bathroom. The master bath was fabulous with a big open shower and double sink. The guest bath had 1 sink with a bunk bed room and a guest room. We were able to stay comfortably with 3 adults and 2 dogs. The property is right at the beach which was lovely for relaxing! The outdoor furniture is comfortable with a great view!
5.0
Cute, well appointed beach cabin. We enjoyed the thoughtful leave behind policy for the next guest as I always feel bad throwing away an almost full container of ketchup, etc. Location and view from living room was fabulous.

My husband and I stayed at the Zen Escape during the Memorial Day weekend to celebrate my nephew's wedding. I've been very impressed with everything from the 1st communication with the booking agent up to our final departure day. The owner/agent kept in touch with me, instructed me through every step of the booking process. Response time was immediate! The house is beautifully set up and maintained, sitting right on the beach. The large deck outback allows you to enjoy the scenery of the ocean, especially in the morning. The downstairs outside area is fully set up to help you and your family enjoy your beach time. It is well equipped with outdoor seating once you return from your private beach entrance. I envisioned families enjoying lunch outside with the plentiful seating which included a large outdoor table and large extended bar area with several bar stools. It's easy to clean off that sand before entering the house with the outdoor private shower that has both hot and cold water! The house is equipped with everything you need to enjoy your stay. The kitchen lacks nothing! Anything you need to make a home cooked meal with plenty of plates, pans, cooking utensils, etc. The coffee area offers two types of coffee pots for your personal preference. We would definitely stay at this location, or other locations offered by this agent. Book now! You won't' regret it! Plenty of shopping and restaurants are conveniently located in the area too!

We absolutely loved our stay. The view cannot be beat. Loved scrabble in the kitchen and Jenga downstairs. The house is perfect.

We loved our stay at the Zen escape. The views were extraordinary and we were so close to the beach it was like a picture postcard. Communication with the owner and manager were outstanding we will definitely be back!

I have so many great things to say about The Zen Escape. The first thing I noticed was the cleanliness of the house. It was the CLEANEST place I have ever stayed at. I always plan on cleaning a little when I rent a house. This place was immaculate which is hard for me to say according to my standards. The view of the ocean was amazing. Every morning we watch dolphins jumped from the balcony. I honestly felt like I was in a luxury cruise ship suite. The hot tub, the location, wall scrabble and board games were a huge hit. My family and I haven’t played games like that in a long time.
Beta and Christine were great hosts! We really could not have asked for a better place to stay. We hit the jackpot with them! They were accommodating, friendly and responded instantly to my questions.
As a matter of fact, two months later, my family and I stayed at another property hosted by Beta and Christine. AND the next time we head to NC we will definitely stay at one of their properties.
Thank you, for the sweet memories.

Our Zen Escape experience was amazing! I don't think we could have been any closer to the water without having been on a boat. It was beautiful! The home was stocked with more than we would have expected, and everything was in great condition. Every person we communicated with in regards to the property responded quickly, and did their best to accommodate. DEFINITELY recommend!
5.0
This property is a diamond! Beautiful, equipped with all the higher end amenities, so well kept and clean and convenient to many small restaurants and small community businesses. Perfect place to escape to relax and chill out. The ocean views CANNOT be beat.
5.0
This home on the beachfront was perfect! It had everything we needed and more. The home was very charming and comfortable. Walk right out to the beach and also easy access to the Surf City community. Communication couldn’t have been better. My only regret is that we could not stay longer.

We’ve got one special pup who was diagnosed early on with a severe heart issue, who has also not had the best luck regarding her health this last year. She loves the beach and just recently made it to her first birthday, so we thought a trip for her would be just what we all needed! This home was beautiful, truly did not want to leave. Highly recommend and am already dying to come back!
5.0
This property is perfect! The house is beautiful and very tastefully decorated. Everything you could need is provided at Zen Escape. The property manager is very communicative and helpful. The view cannot be any better than from the deck of this home! It is situated in a nice, quiet neighborhood within walking distance to many restaurants. Highly recommend this home!
5.0
Booked this place for my husband’s 50th birthday. His only request was oceanfront, being able to hear the waves from the bedroom, and to watch college basketball. THIS. IS. IT. Beautifully decorated home with calm and serene colors not overly bright or overly beachy.
Couldn’t ask for a better location. THE LOCATION!!! You feel as if you are on your own private beach and sitting in the middle of the ocean.
It has everything you need and Christine was a sweetheart when I gad to call her.
We’re just getting home but are already checking our schedules for stay #2.
Definitely ZEN!

Everything was amazing!!!!

My husband, my 85 year old mother, our dogs and I stayed here over Christmas and it was wonderful! Perfect for the dogs. Being one level was great for my mother. The view was absolutely perfect from even inside the house when laying on the sofa, working in the kitchen, from everywhere. For the summer we typically only look at places that list a covered porch, but with this house there is a view of the ocean from under the house so it is like the entirety of under the house is a huge covered porch! Even fenced in for the dogs! The host could not have been more helpful. Definitely will stay here again!!

This was a surprise for my son for his birthday and completion of his first semester of college. When we arrived, it was a seamless experience. The best view as soon as you walk in the door. We watched dolphins every day and enjoyed the convenience of the location to food, shopping but most importantly the beach. Wish we could have stayed longer and hope to visit the property again in the near future! Book your stay with no concerns!

We booked this for a quick little trip to the beach. It was just PERFECT !!! The house was perfect for me and my fiance along with our French Bulldog. The kitchen was well stock ( even has a giving kitchen meaning that you coukd leave some things ror others to enjoy like spices and some sodas in the fridge). There was also full size shampoo, conditioner and body wash in the showers. We used the grill which was great. The location is wonderful as well, right on the beach, just a few steps down. This was our 1st time in Surf City and have been to a number of different beaches and by far this was the best place we have stayed at. We loved this so much even emailed and talked aboit booking something in the summer to come back.
Plenty to do at the house if the weather is not good outside. Lots of games in the house and beach supplies. Would recommend this to anyone i know and really looking forward to coming back !!!!

The Zen Escape is an outstanding property, literally feet away from the ocean. It is well-appointed, with all of the amenities you could want for your beach vacation. Everything inside looks brand new, with quality furnishings, comfortable beds, and tasteful decor. It is quite evident that the owners have given great thought to providing all of the little things that one might forget to bring. Just bring some food, and you will literally not need to leave the property. This may be the best property on VRBO. You cannot go wrong by staying here.

We needed an offseason beach trip and this property offered it all. Minutes from restaurants and awesome beach views throughout the house. The downstairs set up is great for entertainment. We’ll be back!

The house is everything listed and then some. We brought our 2 dogs and they loved it. You literally are "right on the beach". Communication was easy and they try very hard to make any issues right so youbenjoy your stay. We were able to use doordash for food deliveries from many local restaurants when we did not want to go out. We cant wait to get back to the area and are going to try a sister property to this one.

This is our second stay at Zen escape and we enjoyed it just as much as the first time. The house is a perfect size for 2-4 adults and a few kids. The kitchen is clean and very nicely stocked. The primary bath is just the right size for two, with a beautiful tiled shower. The whole house is neat, clean and the decor is devine. The house sits right on the beach within walking distance of the pier and restaurants. The new outdoor shower area and the whole set up under the house is the bomb! Hot tub, bathroom with laundry and outdoor shower, all fenced in to keep the dogs or kiddos from going astray. Can't wait to visit again!

We had a nice time relaxing,fishing and exploring the island . The shops in town were fun to see.It was nice to have fresh seafood available for cooking wonderful dinners. We would like to come back again explore more of the island.

This was our first vacation rental and did not know what to expect. It exceeded our expectation. The house is wonderful and the amenities were so well thought out. It was so clean, quiet and relaxing. Truly Zen! Beata was so helpful with the booking process and the communications were great with her and Christine. Very responsive!. We could not have asked for a nicer vacation with our family and dog. We will be back. Thanks for the memories!

I highly recommend this property to anyone looking to stay in Surf City. Great location and the pictures are very accurate to the property. My family had a great time and we plan to stay here again.

Great Place and location. Great water view from inside. The rear deck was great. Very close to water, which we love. Had a most relaxing time due to all of the above. The interior was great as well. Nothing was lacking in the way of things included. We will definitely be returning here!

Our family group of 6 voted unanimously to return here in the future. We brought one baby and two dogs with us and if they could vote they would agree. The rustic fenced in area was perfect for canine guests. The proximity to the beach made all-day beach campouts very easy…..so convenient to make trips in to the house as needed throughout the day. The upstairs living area was comfortable with plenty of seating and light, just as pictured in the description. The hosts were attentive and available to answer any questions. A stress-free vacation. We only left the beautiful view a few times to go to the grocery store!
4.0
The stay was great. Beautiful location. Beautiful views. Lots of great activities in the area to do like shopping, deep sea fishing, and escape room. The bottom deck was a great meeting area to play cards and hang out. The area was a little less kept up as we expected. The floors were kinda dirty and the grill was rusted. The beach was beautiful! White sands and free of moss. The steps to the beach were a little difficult to navigate if you’re over 55. The sand was covering the bottom few steps and you had to hop the banister to cross. Rather difficult when you’re carrying things. Other than those few things it was a great place to stay!!

My husband and I are local and we wanted to have a staycation with friends of our from Ohio. This property was hands down the best place we have ever stayed in! They had literally EVERYTHING we needed, the view is unbelievable, communication with the owner/property manager was so simple. They were so accommodating. It is perfect for a family with young kids or no kids at all. Wish we never had to leave. Location is also perfect..but the house is so great you don’t even want to leave! 10/10 recommend! We will definitely be back!
