Emerald Tides ~ N. Topsail Beachfront condo w/pool
I can’t say enough good things about the condo! If the beautiful scenery and private access to the beach weren’t enough, Megan’s use of limited space never made the condo feel crowded and it was fully stocked with anything you could need! She answered all of my questions (there were quite a few lol!) and she was so kind! It was truly an amazing destination for our first family vacation! A beautiful island, lots of shells, a quiet beach, and I already miss my morning coffee on the balcony watching the waves.

Oceanfront! Captain's Quarters
This was our 2nd year staying at one of Erica and Wayne’s listing. Fully stocked kitchen, ocean view from the balcony and the pool were all great! It was a great space for our group of 7.

The Salty Kure - by the Pier II
Our stay was amazing! Super close to the pier and walkable to the beach and restaurants. Place was super clean and had all amenities listed and that you would need. Would 100% book again!

Fanta-Sea in Emerald Isle
Our family had a wonderful time. The space was extremely clean and fit the description in the listing and photos. The space is located in a quiet, gated community with lots of wonderful amenities and just a short walk to the beach via private access. Cathy was a wonderful host and was flexible with us during our stay. We’d love to come back for another visit soon!

Sun drenched panoramic ocean views 3 king suites
Beautiful place! The decor and overall aesthetic was so well done and picturesque. Everything was very clean and comfortable. Within walking distance to a lot of restaurants, stores, a park, and ice cream shops. Directions were clear and easy and it was nice to know that only the people that were staying in the complex had access to the pool and beach. Great stay and very kind management!

Dolphins Delight Oceanfront Condo
My partner and I booked this place for our 1 yr anniversary and Debi and Peter were such rockstar hosts. We had zero issues locating or entering the space and the space was spotless. Beach front view was unbelievably amazing and we couldn’t believe how lovely it was to hear waves crashing 24/7. It’s was so kind of them to have items such as beach chairs and umbrellas for the beach. Very thoughtful. Overall a 5 star experience and we’ll be back.

Sol + Sage Studio | Downtown
Great place and great location. A lot of nice coffee shops, resturants, and bars. The Oak Pavillion was a close walk so no need to spend money on a ride share app. Bathroom had great water pressure and the laundry unit being right there was nice to warm a towel for post-shower. Parking was a little confusing but Ann st next to the church after the median on 3rd st was free parking. It was 3 blocks away uphill but parking was safe there the whole time and all amenities were close so you can leave your car and walk most everywhere. Great place to stay if you're visiting wilmington or (like we did) going to a concert.

Wright at Home
Outstanding location. Easy access to Topsail and Wilmington. Beautiful layout and will return. Everything you needed or possibly wanted was there. Extremely friendly.

The Resting Beach Place
We enjoyed our stay and Kristin was a great host. She was always quick to respond back and made everything very easy. We can't wait to return next summer to Topsail.

Right Above It
This is my second time staying here and I can't wait to come back again! Jake & Jena are so great and reasonable to work with, too. They offer a fabulous space that's ocean front, clean, and cozy. I truly feel grateful the second I walk in the door to the airbnb.

Oceanfront Condo on North End CB
Sarah was a wonderful host! My husband and I had not visited Carolina Beach in many years. We enjoyed our quick get away for our anniversary. We love spending time in the beach community, being near the water, hearing the ocean waves and the views. However due to health reasons, I’m not able to tolerate a lot of sun exposure with laying on the beach. Which made Sarah’s condo the perfect place for us! The condo was nicely decorated , very clean and had everything we needed. Sarah was very responsive and communicated very well. I spent alot time on the patio/deck enjoying the ocean views and listening to the waves. We will definitely book again and I would recommend to others.

Bacon in the Sun Beach Condo
Love this condo. Second time staying here and it’s always wonderful.

Modern Oceanview Condo on Carolina Beach
Donna's place was immaculate. It was decorated beautifully with everything you need but not cluttered. The location was amazing, a very short walk to the beach. Location has a small pool that was so refreshing after spending all day on the beach. The only issue we had was with the lock, but Donna was so responsive and made sure we had a solution immediately. Would definitely go back and recommend to anyone looking for a place with a small family.

Beachfront paradise!
We were thrilled with our recent stay at Sarah Lynn’s! Everything was clean and as described! She was responsive to the few questions we had and had recommendations for just about everything we could want or need while we were there! With the beach being so close, and a beautiful drive to local ice cream, groceries, and souvenirs within just minutes, we could not have been happier! We hope to be back!

The Wright Life at Sandpeddler
Michelle was a great host, with clear instructions and an easy to access unit. The furnishings were clean, modern and comfortable. Really appreciated the variety of containers with lids for taking fruit and snacks to the beach. So very close to the beach but nice to also have the pool as an option. Also appreciated the usb chargers. Would definitely stay here again.

Hamlet Hideout
we really enjoyed our stay at hamlet hideout! location is super convenient to all the restaurants, shops, etc but still tucked away enough to be quiet and peaceful. about a 5ish minute walk to the beach. there was definitely some upstairs noise from other guests but that’s not the hosts fault of course! we brought our own sound machine and it didn’t bother us. space was clean, had everything you needed, and the host was super helpful and kind! would definitely stay here again!

OCEAN VIEW, SPA-LIKE. POOL, BEACH BOARDWALK.
Very nice place to stay! Would def stay again. Private and perfectly located in safe neighborhood.

3BR, 2BA Ocean Front Top Floor Condo
This was our first experience with Airbnb, and let me tell you, it far exceeded our expectations expectations! Denise's condo truly is a piece of PARADISE! Everything was super clean, there were a ton of towels and sheets and everything you would need for a home away from home at the beach. The beds were some of the most comfortable we'd slept in (including the pull out couch). And the view is breathtaking! You're so close to the ocean that when the tide is high it almost feels like you're on a cruise. We had no issues, and instructions were very clear, so we had no reason to contact the host during our stay. But she reached out before our trip, and you can tell she put her whole heart into creating a beautiful home away from home to escape to. We look forward to future family trips here!

Creekside 1BD/1BA ground floor oasis; sleeps 4-6
What a treasure we found! Our host, Laura, wanted to be sure we had everything we needed. We really didn't have to ask for anything--it was all there, including an amazing view of the water. The apartment is much bigger than I expected. Very tasteful decor with all amenities, including a spa and outdoor shower. Very clean and tidy. Can't wait to return to Emerald Isle. We explored the islands, sat on the beach, ate good food, and to top it off, finding a place like this. We'll be back....

Surf Vibes! - Oceanfront condo w/ heated pool
Having access to the beach and pools was amazing. We thought we'd need to use the indoor pool, but the weather was great all week. The outdoor pools were great - showers available to get sand off from the beach. The kitchen equipment was not very clean and the doubl bed was pretty uncomfortable. However, these shortcomings were easily overlooked for how close we were to the beach. Kure had lots of activities for free, but also some things you could pay for nearby, like putt putt or the Boardwalk. I definitely recommend this location!

Beachfront Condo w/ Indoor/Outdoor Pool
Alison’s place is truly perfection. Everything was just as described. The condo is literally STEPS to the most beautiful beach I’ve ever visited. I’m in LOVE with Kure!

Queen Anne’s Retreat *Ocean View*
Beautiful view! Clear and helpful communication from host. We loved sitting out on the balcony to watch the ocean and listen to live music.

turtle time - Hot Tub, Short walk to the beach
An adorable beach bungalow perfect for a couple's getaway! Very clean and with all the amenities you could need for a trip to Oak Island. Short walk to the beach via public access point, and great restaurants and coffee shop - all within walking distance. Hot tub is a nice added feature! Owner very responsive to any question we might have. Thank you so much for your hospitality!

*The Seabird* - New Oceanfront Condo!
Great location and condo, but although it’s on the ocean, it isn’t decorated beachy at all. Could be a condo anywhere. But when you open the sliding doors and step out on the balcony, the waves and seagulls wash it all away!
