Heavenly, restful week.

60 years of marriage ended in October of last year. My husband left me, heavenly bound. My friend suggested this vacation beach house, Almast z heaven.” So my two elderly sisters, sister-in-law, three very good friends and a niece decided to go together. The accommodations and amenities were above and beyond any that any of us has experienced in all of our travels. Anything we needed or wanted was there. The view from the deck to the ocean was breathtaking. The night sky mesmerized us when my son, who lives in Hampstead, came to visit and pointed it out to us. I downloaded an app on my phone and could identify the constellations. The sky was so clear we saw the Milky Way. I cannot thank the owners enough for how their dream home welcomed us and gave us all- especially me - time to really relax. This is not a commercial beach. It is calm, safe, beautiful. The house is beautifully decorated, impeccably furnished and clean. I highly recommend it. Do the virtual tour. Then go for yourself on a real tour. You will not be disappointed I Guarantee it! 👏👏

Almost Heaven

The house was really close to the beach with a great view! The Fire pit was fun and it was so nice not having to bring beach chairs and a tarp. The beds and furniture were comfy. The back porch needs some kind of awning. Most days it was too hot to sit outside without shade. There are cameras in and outside of the house, which we didn’t appreciate…we’re not fans of being watched. Overall a great house with a couple issues. The cameras and cleanliness will keep us from coming back.

Great Beach House!

We recently had a delightful stay at this well-equipped beach house. It was a serene and beautiful location, with attention to detail. The house boasts calming coastal charm. The kitchen was fully equipped and a pleasure to cook in, while the bedrooms provided comfort and tranquility. The outdoor space was well-maintained and ideal for relaxation. The beach house also offered a range of recreational amenities, including indoor games and beach toys. that kept our group having fun all day. Overall, it was a remarkable experience, and I highly recommend this beach house for a memorable beach getaway.

Virginian Vacation

My entire family was shocked at all the amenities provided by this property owner. There was literally nothing lacking for us. The house is beautifully appointed and comfortable. We will certainly consider this house again if a return trip to Topsail occurs.
