About this property

2 min walk to the beach - King-sized beds - Sound view - Paddle boards - Pool

Make your beach vacation as easy & comfy as possible, with high-quality, comfortable, spacious King-sized beds, a travel crib and pack and play, a well-equipped kitchen, & an easy and convenient 2 block walk to the beach. The beach is extremely private because there is no public beach-access parking for miles in either direction -- this beach is enjoyed by local residents and guests in houses only. Even on busy summer days, this makes for a much more mellow beach experience!

Enjoy sound views from the porch, & stroll over to the community pier for the sunset. (It's great for fishing, too!) Enjoy the community pool, the sweet gas grill, & make trips to the beach simple with the provided beach cart, umbrella, cooler, toys, & chairs. Relax by streaming your favorite shows. And we love to pamper our guests, so there is easy checkout!

Love adventure? We offer two paddle boards for use during the duration of your stay, complete with PFDs and paddles. For use only in the sound, you can explore the natural surroundings and be on the lookout for dolphins and other wildlife.

Does your sleep matter to you? We get it. Both bedrooms have blackout curtains so you can snooze later. You'll also find plenty of pillows and extra blankets.

The townhouse community is quiet, convenient, and in a perfect location. You can't get any better than sound-side access and a 2-minute walk to the beach. Grocery stores, restaurants, and more are just a short 7 minute drive up the road, too. You can enjoy the quiet beach and then head into North Topsail and Surf City for plenty to do and see if you tire of time in the sand and sun.

The Perfect Beach Getaway

We so enjoyed our stay at this beautiful townhome. It was the perfect fit for our family of four - comfortable beds, enough space for everyone to relax, and a full-sized washer and dryer for all those beach towels! The location and amenities were truly perfect - our kids loved starting the day at the beach, switching over to the pool in the afternoon, and then looking for crabs off the fishing pier around sunset. Will definitely return!

Great place!

We had a great week at this cute beach house with our family of 4. The house was clean and comfortable. Kitchen had everything we needed. The neighborhood was quiet and great location to the beach. We loved the community pool too! Alex and Alexandra were excellent communicators and instantly wrote us when we had a few questions. Highly recommend and hope to go back again!

The house is in a really nice area. All the neighbors were friendly and helpful. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. Would have liked more than one TV since there were 4 of us and would have liked to watched different things. But over all, it was a great stay.

Beautiful safe area, great place, and close to the beach pool and pier.

Spacious, beautiful, close to everything. Home owners were very good with any questions or concerns and answered quickly. Walk to the beach is about two blocks. The wagon was kind of hard since there were so many steps to carry it up onto the beach. The pool was always warm and cozy (my kids were obsessed). 10/10 would come back!

Family vacation

The owners are great! They were quick to respond to any questions and concerns. The grill was unable to be used, I messaged them and they had a new one delivered within 2 days! My daughter loved the pool and fishing pier! Easy walk to the beach! The beach wagon wheels are little rusty but was still able to use! It was a little difficult to get over the stairs at the beach access but we managed. I would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone who is wanting a relaxing house with all the amenities!

Our stay was great! The only negative was the bbq grill - it was beyond just dirty. Obviously, previous guests left the grill in terrible condition. We notified the owners and they immediately apologized and stated that they will likely be replacing the grill this fall.

Can't say enough good things

This is probably one of the best beach rentals we've ever had. Super easy walk to the beach, super clean and nicely appointed, and such communicative hosts! I cannot tell you how nice it was that we didn't have to lug any beach stuff in our car - they provided chairs, umbrellas, sand toys, and a wagon, and it was just so wonderful to be able to save that space in the car. Our little kiddo had lots of fun playing with the house puzzles and games on our rainy day, and the kitchen had everything we needed to put together all our meals and snacks during our stay. This place is a winner through and through!

Breezy Beach Getaway with the babies

We LOVED our off season beach trip. Alexandra was incredible with communication, always quick to respond and kept me informed even as I was arriving to the property with neighborhood updates. The home is beautiful. Clean, organized and comfortable. The atmosphere is calming, beachy and relaxing. There are plenty of beds, blankets, pillows and places to sit — all comfy! The place is truly kid friendly - a pack and play and a bassinet were there. There are not little trinkets and random beachy objects around that toddlers usually love to find and break - my two year old loved the toys upstairs and I enjoyed some quiet time while she played. I felt comfortable letting my 7 month old roll around the floor, knowing there wouldn’t be anything unsafe for her to chew on or break. Instructions for check in and check out were available via Vrbo but also on a home website. I’d definitley stay again, and would recommend to friends! Thanks for a great stay!

Consistency and comfort!

This is our second stay at Alex’s place in North Topsail! First and foremost Alex is an amazing communicator. She’s prompt, kind and so helpful. rThe property is so clean, exactly as pictured and perfect for a family of 4 like ours. We have two little kids (1 and 3) — it’s safe inside (nothing breakable) for kids, close to the beach (easy walk) and in a Safe neighborhood! Beds are comfy, blow up mattresses available for little ones and crib/bassinet options. Neighbors are friendly also. Our stay was because of a renovation and it was easy, kitchen well equipped and there are even some toys and books for kids! We would def stay again if We ever need a new days at the beach! Thanks for everything!

Very nice and conveniently located

We had a great stay at surf and sound townhouse. Loved the location and amenities. Very quiet neighborhood, close to the beach and restaurants and stores are no more then 15 minutes away. The place itself was beautiful, clean and cozy. Kitchen was wonderfully stocked. Beds were very comfortable, all pillows are on the firm side, so if you prefer softer pillow I suggest you pack one. There’s plenty of extra blankets and enough towels. Washer and dryer downstairs was very handy for all those wet fishing clothes and beach towels. Also very thankful for letting your guests use your beach cart and chairs! Overall wonderful experience!

Absolutely perfect!

We had a wonderful stay. Everything was as described. It’s very spacious. Beds were VERY comfortable! There is a sound machine in one of the rooms that came in handy for our son since we forgot his! Kitchen is stocked with plenty of utensils and dishes. Only thing I felt was missing is plastic cups for kids. The one thing we were bummed about was the grill was not usable as it was covered with mold. But the owners intended to address that. It’s a quick walk to the beach and all the beach supplies were really helpful!! The pool area is great! Alex and Alexandra we quick to respond to any messages. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Topsail. You won’t regret it!!!

About the host

Hosted by Alexandra Marano

Host profile image
We are Alex and Alexandra, so if you get messages from us, we are not the same person! We just have similar names. :) Our home is in Chapel Hill, NC, but our little family loves to travel.

​Come enjoy a stay at our sweet beach townhouse in North Topsail Beach, NC or our spacious mountain cabin in Beech Mountain, NC. We're communicative, whether we are the guest or the host, and we always want guests staying at our homes to have a perfect vacation! If we can do anything to accommodate you more, please ask.

Since we know you're on vacation, we will not bother you much during your stay— we try to be as hand's off as possible so you can make yourself at home. Please contact us if you need anything.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this townhouse because it's compact, yet spacious. The kitchen is easy to cook in, and the privacy and easy beach access is unparalleled! We also love the community pool and the community pier. If you're into sea life and fishing, you can fish and crap off our pier in the warmer months and collect oysters there in the cooler months.

We love it here, and we hope you feel right at home! This townhouse has two bedrooms, each equipped with a comfy Brooklyn Bed King-sized bed and cozy sheets. There is also have a travel crib in the closet of the larger bedroom, if you're coming with a little one in tow. Are a few more folks joining you? The den has a comfy queen pull out couch, too, and is right next to the downstairs bathroom. We have lovingly remodeled this townhouse, and you'll see new paint, furniture, and updates throughout it, including all-new appliances so you can enjoy a space that is clean, easy, peaceful, inviting, and relaxing. We love to cook in the kitchen and grill on the outdoor gas grill. Parking is easy: you can park in the driveway and park overflow in the round-about just steps away. This is a perfect place to launch a beach vacation, with plenty to enjoy outdoors and spaces inside to enjoy, too.

The townhouse community is quiet, convenient, and in a perfect location. You can't get any better than sound-side access and a 2-minute walk to the beach. The beach access has no public parking nearby, so beachgoers are locals and folks staying in vacation homes, which makes for a quieter beach experience! Grocery stores, restaurants, and more are just a short, 7 minute drive up the road, too.

What makes this property unique

The pool and pier really make this a standout vacation rental to us! We enjoy sound-side sunsets from our front deck and the short and easy walk to the quiet beach! If you love the idea of fishing, crabbing, and oystering, you can do all of these things from the sound-side pier (and fish from the ocean, too!)
