Great place for a couple or parents with an infant or small child.

The unit is on the small size and the deck is very small and has a limited view of the ocean—it is on the ocean but you can’t look in the north or south direction.

Mini vacation

The condo was ready earlier than expected and I was emailed we could check in after 10 a.m. The view of the beach was great and steps away from the condo. Very friendly neighbors and a very walkable neighborhood. The kitchen was well stocked with everything someone would need. We mostly used it for breakfast and lunch. We would definitely consider staying there again. Any questions we had were answered promptly.

Prime beach access and a must for anyone looking to relax and recharge!

This is the real deal on beach access, literally 40 steps and there it is. Super clean and set up to be very user friendly. Everyone had privacy when needed and the kitchen is set up is just right, plenty of storage space. There was more than enough room for the 4 of us and we could have easily fit 2 more adults. It is pretty central if you wanted to do anything touristy being between Wilmington & Jacksonville. Food Lion is just over the bridge as well as the Tiki Market & Bar across the street.We will be going back next year and for hopefully longer.

Disliked: Location
We were not able to get as much beach time right in front of the condo due to the sand bags there & the tides. Meaning we had to move our chairs every day or walk a ways with our chairs and coolers to get beach..... We rented beach front for a reason! Condo not as nice as we are used to staying in. Cleaning & contents of the unit not up to par! Otherwise, great weather and time!
Stayed 10 nights in Aug 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 27 Aug 2025
Kimberly - we are disappointed that you would leave this review, as we refunded you your cleaning fee, asked if you’d like cleaning to come back to rectify the missed area, and were also understanding when your friend left without returning the complex parking pass. As for the beach, we clearly describe the high tide/low tide cadence at North Topsail beach in our listing description, so that guests are fully aware that beach access can be limited prior to booking. We hope that you’ll communicate better with hosts during your stay in the future!

Great Location/ Stay

Fins up is located right on the beach, you have a nice view of the beach from the balcony as well. The tide can get higher in this area certain times of day but you can just move a little further down the beach if needed. The hosts Bo and Kahla are great with communication, if you have any queations they get back super quick. They also leave some recomendations for places to go, one of the places we went to they recommended was Daddy Macs. This resturant has a great view of the water and great food/Service. Another plus is there is a little Tiki bar across the street. Highly recomend checking this place out! Thank you again Bo & Kahla.

Absolutely positive experience!

Property is exactly as described, and clean!! Check in/out were smooth and easy. Had a couple great conversations with the owner, who was extremely flexible with our last minute scheduling. Can't express enough how excellent communication makes for an awesome visit (which it was)! Beds are comfy and the kitchen is outfitted quite nicely. The area is on the North end, generally very quiet, and ample parking. Beach access is in seconds (beware the very highest tides--this is the North end of the island after all, but still plenty of beach). Would absolutely recommend this unit, and if we need a 2 bedroom again on the next trip, we'll be checking availability here first. For the price of a 2 bedroom and the communication with the owner, this is a hard deal to beat!

Please note that our condo description lists the rooms, bed sizes, and types of air conditioning at the condo which is all available prior to booking. Also, instructions to turn on the tv were immediately given to guest via phone/email because guest was unable to navigate VRBO app message center.

Beautiful getaway

We loved our stay! The view from the deck was absolutely breathtaking! The condo was well equipped, clean and nicely decorated. It was located at the quieter end of the island which we appreciated because we like to escape from hustle and bustling when we vacation. The beach was nice, there was some obvious hurricane damage to the front beachfront area of the condo but you could see they were assuring safety and were working to repair it. The key box for entry is a great system for entry. We also appreciated the kurig pods and the tiki mart/bar across the street! Very convenient! We were about 15 minutes from Surf City which was perfect for us. We went on a Tiki Tour boat trip in Surf City which was amazing! Visited the pier and had great dinners wherever we went. The owners messaged us on the day of arrival to make sure we arrived safety, which we really appreciated. I also reached out about a concern and they got back to me right away. It was a great week and place to stay. If we were ever to travel in the area again we would definitely return to this condo if it was available.
