Oceanfront 2BR Sleeps 6 | Linens & Chairs Included

KaitlynnRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a great family vacation with our kiddos! The house is exactly as described and as shown in the pictures. The outdoor shower and easy access to the beach were perfect! We instantly felt at home and Ronnie was a great host. Would recommend this spot to anyone wanting a relaxing, low-key, beach vacation.

Oceanfront Oasis: Hot Tub, Fenced Yard, & Views

LaurenRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The house was exactly as pictured & Beata was so friendly & easy to communicate with. The house was very clean (by far the most clean pet-friendly home we have stayed in). You would have no idea it was pet friendly if you were traveling without four legged children. We can’t wait to return next year!

Toes In The Sand

CamieRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Stayed here with a couple girlfriends for a ladies getaway trip. The place was clean and comfortable. It was wonderful being so close to the beach! The tiki bar across the street was an awesome addition and gave us something fun to do in the evening. The only note is that the lock on the front door was a bit finicky and you have to turn the door handle upwards to open it - took us a minute to figure that out haha!

A wooden walkway leads to the beach, with a gate offering private access to the sandy shoreline. The sun reflects off the ocean, creating a shimmer on the water, while a blue sky stretches overhead. Beach chairs are visible in the distance.

Sun & Sand Beachfront Condo on Topsail Island

RobinRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We stayed for an extended weekend and couldn’t have been happier with our choice! The view is amazing, the beds/furniture comfy and they have everything you need here. If you have a piece of beach gear that is a must have then certainly bring it, but there’s nothing to worry about here, they have you covered - chairs, umbrella, beach towels, beach toys for the kiddos, etc. Only slight snag we had was with the WiFi, but a quick message and turnaround response and a workaround was in place. Definitely one of our favorite Airbnb experiences!

SeaSound Gold: Topsail Island

StephanieRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
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!

A serene view overlooking the beach, featuring gentle waves and a sandy shore, where two figures can be seen walking. A pathway leads from the deck down to the beach, with a swimming pool visible in the foreground, surrounded by a black safety fence.

Spacious Beach Stay w/ Pool, Spa, Views & Kings!

CareyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Renee is an excellent host from beginning to end. She responded to all of my questions within minutes and did everything she could to make our stay comfortable. The location is quiet and peaceful. Traveling with children to the beach requires a location with easy access to the beach and within short proximity, as you will be hauling half the house with you to meet the kiddos every whim. This home meets those needs! Very easy distance to walk from the house to the beach. The home was clean and beautifully decorated, with thoughtful touches of limited breakable items, keeping it easy to maintain with children. Overall, I would definitely recommend and return! Renee, you rock! Thank you for everything! 😉

Your guide to North Topsail Beach

Welcome to North Topsail Beach

The southern tip of North Carolina is flanked by the lovely port city of Wilmington and miles of pristine, sandy coastline. Like the Outer Banks on the northern end of the state, Topsail Island is a barrier island that stretches 26 miles along the Atlantic Ocean. It is home to three seaside towns: North Topsail Beach, Surf City, and Topsail Beach. The northernmost community, North Topsail Beach, provides that toes-in-the-sand, small-town vibe you might crave from a beach vacation, far from chain restaurants and crowded bars — but with plenty of beach houses large enough to accommodate your entire family or group of friends. Aside from being a hotbed for water sports like surfing and paddleboarding, North Topsail Beach is also widely known for its conservation efforts, including preserving the many loggerhead turtle nesting sites.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in North Topsail Beach

Though North Topsail Beach is rarely crowded, you’ll get the best weather in spring (March through May) or fall (September through November). The summer months are pleasant, but certainly more crowded than the rest of the year. The Atlantic’s hurricane season can start in June and run through November, so you’ll want to monitor weather conditions before and during your stay; in recent years,the most serious storms have hit in August and September. Both the water and air temperatures are often warm enough to enjoy the beach and its water sports through late October. October also brings with it Wilmington’s annual Riverfest.

Lea-Hutaff Island

Spanning 5,641 acres, nearby Lea-Hutaff Island is the perfect retreat for anyone looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The untouched creeks double as nursery areas for fish, shrimp, and crab. Birders, in particular, will love to dust off their binoculars to bring to the state’s last remaining uninhabited barrier islands, where they can spy on thousands of feathered friends who claim these skies as their playground.

Salty Turtle Brewery

North Carolina is home to the largest craft beer industry in the South. Salty Turtle Brewery in Surf City was the first brewery to open in Pender County. If you’re into full-bodied, hop-forward beers, you’ll love what this veteran-owned brewery serves in its pet-friendly beer garden and taproom.

The Battleship North Carolina

Wilmington is a town with a rich military history, and it’s also the final resting place of the USS North Carolina. During World War II, this battleship was considered the world’s greatest sea weapon, participating in every major naval offensive in the Pacific. Take a self-guided tour of this vessel, which has been at its current berth since 1961.
