This property has extraordinary views, convenient location and plenty of available parking spaces. Our kids loved watching the ocean from the balcony and enjoyed using the basketball court that was directly across the street! Wi-Fi access was a plus with teens.
Everything was as advertised. Although there isnât beach access at high tide, there is public access just two houses over so it wasnât a big deal to get on the beach. Recommend walking down to see the sunrise. Happy to have a little ice maker. Bed slept well, and even though I was there during an extreme heat advisory, the unit stayed cool and comfortable.
Lovely place really enjoyed our stay and the owner was very tentative when we had a user error issue with the door, the neighbors are super friendly hated to leave. Thanks for your hospitality!!
The location was great for a family vacation. The beach was tranquil. Met some wonderful families. The view from the balcony was amazing and during high tide the water came in so close it was akin to paradise. The furnishings were a bit dated and the washer and dryer did not work. The owner informed us a few days before arrival but shared a repairman was scheduled to fix it during our stay which did not happen. This was a bummer as we packed lite. No compensation was offered for the inconvenience. Access to the community basketball court was a plus for our son and the beach acces was spectacular. Hope to be back to this beautiful beach soon!
You canât beat the view and having the water wash up under you at high tide! Great communication from Alan throughout the stay with detailed instructions. We will be back!
We enjoyed our stay at By the Sea so much!The accommodations were perfect for the two of us!! We came to relax and thatâs just what we did!! Our host was easy to contact when we had questions. We highly recommend this property!!
This property is just as described. Very clean, nicely decorated and definitely waterfront. The beach was beautiful, high tide is very high. Owner was extremely responsive when we had an issue with the washer.
The view from the property was outstanding, the sunsets and sunrises were wonderful to watch. The property had all of the amenities that we needed, the shower was amazing and the bed was comfortable. Alan was great at communicating with us throughout the entirety of our stay. I would definitely stay here again!
Our stay was peaceful and quiet. The condo was beautiful and perfect for the two of us. Our host was very accommodating and made sure we were comfortable the entire stay. We loved it and definitely plan on returning for our next trip
Very nice, clean property. We really enjoyed our 3 nights. Having never been to Topsail Beach, we were pleasantly surprised how nice the town is. Great views. I even got sprayed by the waves as the tide was right up to the condo! Highly recommend!
This property was right on the ocean. High tides made it impossible to walk out to the beach. It was lovely to sit on the balcony and watch the waves and tide, but we were limited to beach time. The kitchen had plenty of space and was well-equipped. The Murphy bed was easy to use and worked well for our teenager. The air conditioning units were noisy (mostly because they were working all the time due to the high heat). Property owner was good with communication.
We enjoyed our stayâŠ. beautiful sunset! Clean and peaceful my only suggestion would be supply more towels and wash cloths and a rug at the front door and balcony door. Loved having in unit washer and dryerâŠ
This place delivered everything expected and then some. We went on a girls trip and have nothing but good to say from check in to check out. Alan was easily available, the place was clean, had AMAZING views, and incredible location, and the list could go on and on. We did get to see the dolphins playing just outside our balcony. Was so cool to hear the waves of the ocean the entire stay and to be able to step out onto the beach at low tide was the best. There is also a beach located minutes up the road and a short drive down the other way. Great stay!!
My husband and I came to the area to visit our son for Super Bowl weekend and stayed in N Topsail at By the Sea - Alanâs wonderful condo at Topsail Reef. We had an amaking experience from the time of booking till the day we left. Not only was the communication absolutely superb, the condo was pristine and comfortable, the online guide we received was incredibly helpful, and the check-in/out process was very clear and easy. With this condo being right on the ocean - the waves lulled us to sleep each night (in a king size bed to boot!) and the ease of getting to the beach made it the perfect getaway! We would absolutely recommend staying By the Sea and hope to be back again very soon!
This condo was beautiful, clean, well stocked, comfortable and its balcony was right out over the sea where we could see the dolphins and birds playing every day! My wife and I had a lovely little getaway. It is within 15-20 minutes of lots of restaurants and shopping. It had a nice king sized bed (and a Murphy hideaway bed that we did not use). Weâd definitely come back!
We will be back to this exact unit. It was the perfect spot for a relaxing getaway! We even asked and got to stay an extra night for half off. Host was excellent. We did not even use the bed in the back room. You have everything you need and more AND we saw Dolphins every morning. !This is our forever NC beach spot
Thank you Alan and Paige for our wonderful stay at By The Sea.
The condo was so convenient. You are literally steps away from the beach and the parking lot. It was so easy to carry our luggage, groceries, etc to the condo.
Last year we stayed in this same area, but was on the third floor. Shewww the steps were tuff for us.
The condo was decorated so beautiful. There was even a little Coffee Bar area. The Rain Shower was sweeeeet too !!!
No need to worry about remembering your access code to your condo, it's the last four numbers of the phone number your reservations were made with. "WOW" how nice is this.
There are four "nice" beach chairs on the deck for your convenience to use. Speaking of the deck, it is absolutely awesome to be that close to the ocean. The Super Moon view was spectacular.
We can't say enough about By The Sea. We loved our time at this beautiful condo.
