Top Surf City Beach Hotel Reviews

NEWLY RENOVATED- Oceanfront Condo Queen’s Grant - WiFi, Pool, Boat Ramp & Dock

10/10 Excellent

"Great location on the ocean but with easy access to the canals across the street. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks"

Searenity! 3 BR w/bonus loft. Pet friendly.

10/10 Excellent

"Great, kid friendly spot. Just a quick walk to the beach. Highly recommend."

"We enjoyed our time in the area."

Oceanfront Paradise | Private Beach Access | Topsail Beach | Sleeps 10

8/10 Good

"We had a wonderful stay overall and really enjoyed our vacation. The home was comfortable. We also wanted to mention that the dunes in front of the house made it difficult for elderly family members to navigate the walk to the beach; it was fine for younger guests, but our elderly parents had a hard time getting down to the beach. Thank you for sharing your property with us."

Professionally Decorated Ocean Front Oasis

8/10 Good

"Third Day was so spacious, clean, and comfortable. There were plenty of sleeping options for 7 kids and 5 adults. Both living rooms were cozy - great couches. The upper deck was amazing, especially the swing and outdoor sofa. We had a very rainy and windy week, so it was great to still get to be outside on the covered decks. Having the beach chairs and boogie boards were incredible because we didn't have to pack those in our already crowded cars. The location of this house was perfect and the beach was never crowded. It is a wonderful place for families who want to stay put all week and enjoy being on the beach and hanging out together in the house. The only downside is that we like to cook and grill and the grills are charcoal park grills - pretty small and difficult to manage in windy weather. Otherwise, the kitchen/pantry had all we needed."

Charming 2-bedroom home in Topsail Beach, perfect for family getaways!

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay and this beach house was perfect for our small family and our dog. It was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a simple, relaxing beach vacation. The location was great, and we really enjoyed our time here. The only suggestions we have would be to add a grill and a few beach chairs, which would make the stay even more convenient. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would definitely stay here again!"
