We had a wonderful week at North Topsail! The property is well maintained and spacious. Beautiful view of the beach which is only a short walk to reach. Loved the reversed floor plan! Lots of steps but worth it for the view! The gas fire pit is nice and will be wonderful when the weather is a little cooler.

Thank you so much for staying with us! The reversed floor plan is one of our favorite things about Seaside Sanctuary too and worth every step for those gorgeous ocean views. We are so glad you enjoyed the fire pit, it's magical on a cool evening with the sound of the waves. North Topsail Beach is such a hidden gem for those who want a real beach experience without the crowds, and we'd love to have you back!

Property was clean and comfortable with plenty of space indoors and outside. Very family friendly. Noise between floors is hard to hear -- great for nap times and early bedtimes, noise from outside was minimal. Host provides some beach items, like chairs and towels, which is super convenient. Location is close to local businesses, but not close enough that the beach was overly crowded. The beach area is clean and an excellent spot for shell collecting. Host was quick to respond.

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We're thrilled the amenities and layout worked well for your family, from the quiet floors for nap time to the beach chairs and towels we leave for guests. North Topsail Beach is one of the most peaceful, least commercialized stretches around, we love the wide, uncrowded sand for shell collecting and are glad you did too. With Surf City's restaurants and shops and Sneads Ferry just a short drive away when you want them, we agree… it is the perfect place. We'd love to host your family again at Seaside Sanctuary! Thanks again for staying with us.
