I booked and paid for this beach place 6 months in advance for a week family vacation and we were all so excited only to show up with someone already renting this place for a week. To our surprise we literally walked in (with our kids) on folks staying to there that were halfway clothed!! Alana had just gave us the door code the day before after I had to ask for it. After calling Alana (the owner who I had been in contact with the whole booking) she informed me of a terrible mistake and another family had the place for the same week as us! She offered for us to stay in duplex next door that she thought was similar minus a few beds and in return she would refund us some money. Family was so upset and we were not about to get in the car with all our stuff and drive home so we stayed. This place did not have the same view, there was less amenities, the grill was so trashed you would never cook on it and there were roaches in the shower. To make matters worse when I text Alana to ask about how she wanted to handle refund I got nothing back. This was our first week vacation on the beach and Alana ruined it then did not keep her word about refunding us money after not having the place we booked so far in advance available for us.

This house has a spacious kitchen and great views! We loved how close the house was to the beach and pool! Unfortunately, the hot tub was not in use. The house was very clean but could use some updated furnishings and furniture.

The view is simply stellar but there are things that need attention like a good deep cleaning, replace old/stained toilets and toilet seats, upgrade kitchen items also need a couple real cutting boards, measuring cups/spoons and more glassware. Appreciated having plenty of empty cabinets and pantry for our stuff. Really enjoyed being out on the decks and the spacious living area and comfortable beds/bedding. The elevator was a big plus for loading in and out.

Amazing location on the sound and very close proximity to Topsail Beach. We saw dolphins both in the sound and from the beach! If you are looking for the most relaxing beach vacation spot then this is it!

The house was very nice. When we walked in, it smelt like a fish fry restaurant. We thought it could have be cleaned (smelled) better upon arrival. The kitchen was left unkept with the sink and oven still dirty. These were the only complaints, not enough to spoil anything. Overall, very nice place .

Very relaxing. Did see the dolphins. Easy layout of the house. Looking forward to making this a yearly trip. Would highly recommend to anybody. Communication with the host was exceptional.

I enjoyed my stay and the property was very clean. Sunsets were beautiful and the weather was great. I would definitely recommend staying here. Very relaxing.

Great week at Topsail! We saw dolphins everyday and gorgeous sunsets! Kitchen was well stocked, beds were comfortable. We would definitely stay again!
