Stunning Oceanfront View, 2 br/2 ba with Elevator!

EmilyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
David’s place was well appointed with everything you could possibly need for a stress free trip. So many little touches such as snacks and water bottles, coffee pods, extra razors and toiletries, even sunscreen! The condo was spotless, comfortable beds, and great location. I’m definitely going to book with him again!

The house exceeded our expectations. There is beach equipment/towels available for guests, along with a rise off area by the garage. The kitchen is fully stocked compared to other air bnbs I've stayed in. Check in/check out is super easy and the responsive hosts created a helpful guidebook to answer all questions and even included restaurant/activity recommendations. The walk to the beach access was much shorter than we thought from the map view, so this is a perfect location in vicinity to the beach. The house was spotless when we arrived, all of the linens are high quality and cleaned very well. The mattresses and pillows were also extremely comfy! We've decided that Topsail will be our regular beach spot and we'll be staying here whenever possible!!

Oceanfront home- pool, playground, 3 suites, beach

DineshRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
I’ll mirror everyone else - hate to give this place away. We went for mother day day and birthdays with 2 little ones and my Mother in law. Super well setup for kids. Nice clean pool that gets sun in afternoon. Right next to park. Balconies are great and super well appointed for kids (or families in general). We loved this place. Lots to do even with a few days of rain.

Oceanfront 3 bedroom home; private beach access

OlenaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had the most amazing stay. Beautiful house on a private beach. Time we stayed there weren’t a lot of people at all. So peaceful! Straight walk onto the private beach. Probably one of the cleanest homes we’ve ever seen or rented by far. Our pup had a blast too. We were sad to leave and wished to have stayed longer than a week. Great please great stay. April was quick to respond to all my questions. Hope to stay here again!

Light and Bright at Pook's Place - Bring the Pups!

AdamRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This was our first time in Atlantic Beach and we all really liked it and would like to come back. We would gladly stay at this property again. It is in a quiet, private location, yet very close to the action. We were very comfortable with the size and furnishings. The owner even arranged a sign and balloons in the kitchen wishing us a happy anniversary. The back decks and yard were great for our dogs. We like things as quiet and uncrowded as possible, so we went to the beach at the New Bern Street public access point. There are restrooms and an outdoor shower. Once you are on the actual beach, you can only see big beach houses and no businesses, hotels or condos. We also enjoyed the aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores, and Cape Lookout National Seashore, and highly recommend both. Having a Dollar General right down the street was very convenient, and there is a Food Lion not far down the road. There are also plenty of beach/souvenir shops close by. Many thanks to Aaron for a great stay.

OceanFront 3Bedroom/2.5Bathroom Dog Friendly home!

KarenRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
What a delightful experience! The house was as advertised and more. Kate provided many thoughtful touches (easy entertainment navigating, extra kitchen and food treats, fully stocked kitchen and cooking aids, games, beach supplies), which were wonderful surprises. She operates a pet friendly house, with pet supplies too. The location is marvelous, and the Surf City beaches are wonderful. She truly is a five star hostess, and this lovely home is perfect for a family/pet holiday.

3BR Oceanfront-On the Sand! Pet Friendly! Sunsets!

EricRating, 5 starstoday
We loved the oceanfront covered patio with unbeatable access to the beach. The house was comfortable and reasonably stocked with everything we needed. I disagree with the previous reviewer about cleanliness- the house felt very clean in all rooms, especially for a beach house exposed to the elements

Second Row! Slipper Shell at Emerald Isle

RachelRating, 5 stars9 months ago
This is by far the best Airbnb experience we’ve ever had. Jon and Leah are exceptional hosts and from our few interactions, clearly good people. They’re accommodating and communicative. We felt very comfortable and at home at this location because it was so clean and well maintained. It’s very peaceful here, a perfect distance from the beach as well as places to paddle board/kayak. You get a beautiful view of the stars on the balcony. Lots of great food places were close by and recommended by the hosts. We hope to have the opportunity to stay here again. If you’re looking for a relaxing, quiet, fun vacation where you’ll feel safe and comfortable this is without a doubt your spot. We’re so grateful for hosts like these two for providing a great place to help make happy memories!
