Best House by the Beach!

Our stay here was so amazing. Our check in process was great and we were able to check in a lot earlier than expected to spend the day by the beach. There were tons of additional perks included that we got to enjoy like all the beach gear and a wagon. Jim even set up an extension cord for us to charge our electric car. On top of all of that we were allowed to stay late into the last day because no one was checking in after us. Would highly recommend this spot!!

This VRBO has everything you need for your stay. Super clean, comfortable beds, plenty of kitchen essentials, games, chairs, convenient location. Beach access #12 is right across the quiet street. Less than a mile walk down the street to shops and the bridge. Jim is quick to respond if you need anything. Would highly recommend this place!

Quick Trip

Property was perfect for 3 travelers. Communication and hospitality from the host made this a quick and easy stay. We even had a smores kit for a little treat. We stayed here so we could cook our own meals and it had everything we needed to grill and make a nice breakfast. Would definitely stay again.

Great for families

Jim was very accommodating and made it a point to have things out for the kids. The place was very clean, very close to two beach accesses and walkable to restaurants. The house was very well stocked and had everything we needed. We only had to pack our clothes. Jim has thought of every detail and we would definitely come back!

Clean home, close to the beach

My family and I had a wonderful stay on N. Shore Drive. The apartment was very spacious for 3 adults and 2 dogs. Only steps from the beach (access is literally across the street). Very clean and quiet. Jim made himself very available and was very friendly when we saw him on the property multiple times throughout our stay doing maintenance outside.

Truly a fantastic find!

The hosts proved to be very helpful and responsive. They've made this home into a cozy and laid back retreat. It comes with comfy beds with soft sheets, lots of seating inside and out, plenty of games and toys for the kiddos, free wifi, a full kitchen + dishwasher and a combo keurig/regular coffee pot, washer/dryer, outdoor grill, PLUS it comes with good shower pressure. As an added bonus, they provided the linens, towels, shower toiletries (shampoo/conditioner/body wash, hand soaps), thick beach towels, and kitchen essentials (dishwasher tabs, diswashing liquid, cooking spray, salt/pepper, sugar, creamer, paper towels, aluminum foil, pots/pans, dishes, cups, mugs, utensils, dishclothes, etc). I really appreciated that I didn't have any stairs to climb, plus it came with its own reserved parking spot. The location is also terrific as the beach is right across the street! We would certainly stay here again. A+ experience!

A beach condo packed with fun!

Our family truly enjoyed our stay at the 4 Sea Monkeys. Our host was fantastic, and he left out many beach toys for our kids and water balloons too. This condo offers all the beach amenities needed, is very close to public beach access, and is within walking distance of everything. I highly recommend staying here!! We will be coming back next summer!

This is the place to stay! Look no further!!! Book Now!

This is such a great place to book! Seriously! Quit wasting time looking around and just book it! This property sits across the street and 3 houses away from access point #13! It was so nice to be able to just walk to the beach or back home super fast. The unit is super spacious and fully stocked more than any place I’ve ever stayed at (and I travel A LOT)! Jim has excellent communication and strives to make your trip relaxing, comfortable, and best he possibly can! My 3 nephews from Ohio and myself throughly enjoyed staying here and will most certainly be back!

Wonderful place to stay

My husbands family has traveled to Topsail for nearly 50 years to vacation. This was my first trip joining them. The condo we stayed in was perfect for us, not paying the beach house price tag and being right across the street from access was perfect. The condo itself came with stuff I didn't need to pack that I wish I would have seen/known about prior. There were beach chairs, umbrellas, a wagon, beach towels and much more provided. Way beyond my expectations. The condo was clean, the location was perfect, the area is quiet and very kid friendly. Thank you for sharing your home with us!
