Great Family Vacation at Topsail

5 of 5
Submitted: April 29, 2008 Stayed: April 2008
We had a wonderful time. Your townhouse was very nice and very clean. Thanks for providing the play yard and highchair! We loved the location and the view. It was nice that the beach was pretty much empty so our 3 year old could run and play all he wanted. Everyone had so much fun that we are thinking about Topsail as our vacation spot for next year too!

My husband and I arrived on a Sunday evening and the first thing we did was make our way to the ocean. It's a short walk through the complex and you're not crossing any roads to get there. It was fantastic! The sand was so soft and white and the ocean was really warm! We grocery shopped the next morning in Sneads Ferry, which is about 10 minutes away, and didn't have to shop again while we were there. The welcome basket in the kitchen was full of useful info. We were so comfortable here, like it was our home. The decor is perfect for a place on the beach. They have every kitchen gadget you could every need and we even used the charcoal grill a few times. I would have to say one of the best things was laying in bed and listening to the ocean. I actually taped it on my phone so I can listen every once and awhile! We didn't use the AC once while we were there! The owners were very easy to deal with. My husband and I didn't do much while we were there, so I can't speak about restaurants or touristy things. Every day, for 7 days straight, we went to the beach. Even when it's cloudy...it's still heaven. I would for sure recommend this place to family and friends. My husband and I are trying to figure out when we can get down there again!
Owner's Response: Thanks for the review, Kathy. We hope that you will stay with us again soon!

We have stayed at 201 Shipwatch several times over the years with our family of five - I think that says it all - we keep coming back!

The property comes as described and pictured, very clean, well prepared, and well maintained. We had all the relevant contact info and requirements for a great vacation and have never had a worry along the way...

We have recommended this property to friends looking to stay in the same area. It's a great buy...

The beach at North Topsail is fantastic - no pressure even at peak season, unlike many of more popular the east-coast beaches close by. The pool is never crowded and everyone is friendly and we all have an amazingly great time.

The property itself is very comfortable for the five of us. We spend most of our daytime at the beach and pool, or out buying fresh seafood in Surf City or Sneads Ferry, or checking out local businesses; whatever you do go to Surf City Crab Seafood Market! Those guys rock! We enjoyed fresh Yellowfin Tuna, Swordfish, Mahi-Mahi, and pound after pound of Jumbo shrimp and dry scallops, and they always loaded us up heavy and iced us down - they got a nice tip the last day we shopped :) And we always get pizza the night we get into town at Denaio's in Sneads Ferry - just a tradition and really great pizza :)

There are beach chairs, coolers, beach toys for the kids (even a kite!), and crabbing nets for late night beach walks on hand.

We always go out "crabbing" every night and have really cool and memorable family time every day. Can't say enough good things!

Enjoy your stay at Shipwatch, and make sure you're ready to work off some of that fresh seafood!

Cheers!

Submitted: April 19, 2012 Stayed: April 2012
We arrived to a very clean, well decorated, completely accommodated (all kinds of kitchen gadgets) rental with an unobstructed view of the ocean . The beach was accessible without crossing vehicle traffic.

The furniture was comfortable and the beds were all firm and especially comfortable.

The owners were quite helpful with directions and schedule changes and I feel would have been available if any problems arose ……… of which there was never a need.

If you have teenagers who like to linger in the bathroom, make sure they use the upstairs bathroom, as there is only one bath/shower. It is an easy work-around.

All in all, the place set the foundation for a very enjoyable vacation. The rates were reasonable, too.

Great value for the price!

We have just returned from a 6 night stay at this condo. First off I would say that we would definitely stay here again. It was comfortable, close to the beach, has a pool on the property and the unit has a washer and dryer. All of these things made our stay great. This condo is dated as per the pictures but is fully stocked for all you will need for a beach vacation. Linens, lots of pots/pans/dishes/etc in the kitchen, beautiful view of the ocean from the living room. While the unit is obviously used mostly as a rental due to the dated decor, worn carpet, not kept up like a home you live in yourself, this did not detract from our vacation in the least. Due to these reasons is why I'm sure this property is a bit cheaper. It is a good value for your money. We were lucky to have excellent weather while on North Topsail Beach so we didn't spend much time indoors.
This was our first time to Topsail. It is a quiet area, not commercialized (thank goodness), beautiful beaches and friendly people. We only ate out once (Sears Landing) and instead opted to cook for ourselves. There are few restaurants around. This is the type of place to stay if you want to hang out at the beach or pool for your whole vacation. Also, the owners have a good supply of beach toys, 2 beach chairs, fishing poles/nets, boogie boards...and we donated our beach umbrella to the collection as well.
The master bedroom has a full sized bed and then the 2nd bedroom has 2 twin beds. For our traveling family of 4 (2 adults and twin toddler girls) we were able to just fit 2 pack n plays into the 2nd bedroom. The kitchen is fairly large and there are sky lights in the living room and kitchen. The 4 balconies provide lots of outdoor space.
The walk to the beach is relatively short which is hard to tell from the pictures. The unit is not directly on the beach. You walk through the pool area to get to the beach access.
We were there the first week of Sept 2011 and barely anyone appeared to be on the island. Great shells and crabs running around on the beach.
We hope to come back year after year! North Topsail Beach is a gem and this condo is a great budget friendly find. :)
