Family Trip

Great place to stay! Beautiful view from all rooms. We were looking for something that could accommodate babies, young adults and grandparents. The elevator was perfect for grandparents going up and down. Place was very clean and there was games for the kids. Beach was very peaceful and not too crowded. Great food nearby!

The house was nice but the dishwasher didn't work and we had to purchase an umbrella for the beach as the one provided was missing a pole. Very noce location.

We are glad you enjoyed your stay. Our apologies for the dishwasher not working part of your stay. We make every attempt to get repairs done as quickly as possible, but sometimes waiting for parts to be delivered is out of our control. We wish you had told us about the umbrella pole during your stay. We would have taken care of that right way.

We stayed at 3 Little Turtles for a week to celebrate my father-in-law’s birthday, and overall it was a great experience for our family. The home truly had everything we needed, making it easy to relax and enjoy our time together. It’s a wonderful spot for a large family, with plenty of space and absolutely amazing views.There were just a few minor issues worth mentioning. The hot tub wasn’t quite as clean as we would have liked, and the board games seemed to be mixed up in the cabinets with missing pieces, which made them difficult to use. The entrance area was also a bit dusty and could use some attention.That said, once inside, the home was immaculate and very well kept. Despite the small concerns, we had a fantastic stay and would definitely recommend it to others looking for a comfortable, family-friendly oceanfront getaway.

September Getaway at Topsail Beach

The property is great to accommodate up to 10 people. Bedroom and baths are well equipped and beds are all comfortable. Elevator is a blessing for seniors. Property manager is incredibly helpful and available. Beach is really nice and close. We may stay again. Good value.

We enjoyed our family vacation at North Topsail and had a wonderful time! The home was a great place for our family to relax, enjoy the beach, and make some wonderful memories. We would definitely consider returning next year and wanted to share a few suggestions that could make an already enjoyable stay even better.The kitchen could use a little more organization. Pots, pans, and other items seemed to be placed in various cabinets without much rhyme or reason, which made finding things a bit challenging. We understand that keeping a rental kitchen organized can be difficult, but a little rearranging before the next rental season would be helpful. The oven could also use a deep cleaning, as it became somewhat smoky when we used it to prepare meals. The ceiling fan in the top-floor bedroom was quite loud and unbalanced, so it may benefit from some adjustment or replacement. Our biggest disappointment was with the no-pet and non-smoking expectations. We specifically chose the property because it was advertised as no pets and non-smoking. However, discovered smoking was allowed on adjacent decks; guests next door were smoking outside. Also noticed a dog at another nearby property. While we understand outdoor smoking may be permitted in certain areas, made it difficult for us to fully enjoy both the indoor/outdoor spaces. Hope to find a property where no-pet and non-smoking policies truly maintained. Thank you for helping make our family getaway a memorable one!

We try and provide the best experience to our guests and appreciate your feedback so that we can correct any issues that arise. While the HOA at Surfside Villas prohibits guests from bringing pets, owners of the units are allowed to stay at their own house with their pets. This was the case, where that owner of that unit was staying with her friends. We did speak to her regarding smoking on the deck and the smoke drifting in your direction, but that was all we could do. We took note of your suggestion and will be organizing the kitchen better during the off season and putting labels where everything should be. The kitchen starts off organized in the beginning but as the season progresses it becomes somewhat disorganized, We hope putting labels where things should be will help. We spoke to the cleaners and had the oven cleaned and asked them to keep on top of that regularly. And we will replace the ceiling fan during the off season to ensure it remains balanced.

Nice place

Nice decor, which was a big reason I chose this duplex. Very clean and quiet, there was no one in the other half while we were there. Plenty of beach stuff (chairs, boogie boards, sand toys). We had to put the sheets on the beds, not ideal if you get in late and tired but at least you know they’re clean! Personally thought there were a lot of requirements for checkout, like all bedding stripped and stuffed in a bag, dishes washed and put away out of dishwasher… and I thought the property manager could’ve been more friendly, although he did respond quickly to my one question. Overall nice place for the 7 of us.

Perfect vacation

The home was lovely, well-appointed and had a perfect layout for our needs. The elevator was wonderful for my 80 yr old parents. The only complaint was the pool. One of the other homes had a large family and they took over the pool, using large rafts and floats which made it difficult for others, outside of their party, to swim comfortably. Since it is a shared pool, maybe floats and rafts should be prohibited in the future. We did have one day without a/c on the 2nd floor, but that was resolved quickly. The location was perfect. The proximity to the ocean was perfect. The balconies were awesome and we had perfect weather for our stay. We will definitley try to reserve this property for our vacation next year.

The property was not cleaned from the previous guests when we checked in and we had to call the owner/manager, who returned in 15 minutes and started cleaning and called back the cleaners. My wife did an additional 8 hours of cleaning and the property owner eventually called her and was very apologetic and promptly refunded our cleaning fee.The property is amazing. Fantastic location, elevator from the carport, air-conditioning that worked great, beautiful porches, a grassy area to play with kids, the community pool was very nice, outdoor shower, and you always could get a front row place on the uncrowded beach.Life happens; it’s hard to find cleaners, especially during peak season, but the owner and the manager both responded. Well done.

Stay

Overall a great vacation and we so enjoyed the home, the hot tub and the pool. There were just a few things that we think you may want to know. There were ants in a few of the beds. The bedroom on the top floor had lots of ants on the bedside table.l closest to the door as well as in the bed and ants in the bedroom on the 3rd floor with the bathroom. My husband also pulled bottle caps and pop can tabs from the garage disposal. We noticed this the first day there but was able to get them all out and he got the disposal working. No other issues at all. We beautiful home and had everything we needed. Thank you!

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! We always ask our guests to let us know of any issues during their stay so we can remedy them as soon as possible. Unfortunately, we were not informed about the ant issue and only upon inspection after your departure did we become aware. We do have the house treated quarterly. We would have addressed this immediately and taken corrective action if we were notified. The house has been treated again with no further concerns from guests. We appreciate your husband unjamming the disposal, but we would have preferred if you had called us first out of saftey concerns. We would have been right down to take care of it.

Perfect Family Getaway!

We had an awesome week in the house with all of our family. We rented this lovely home to celebrate my husbands 65th birthday and our granddaughters's 7th birthday. This was the first time to N. Topsail, and we loved the area and the house. It was amazing to be able to literally walk down to the beach 50 yards from the back door of the house. Everyone had their own space, plenty of bedrooms and private bathroom space. Everyone had great accommodations and said that they loved staying here and want to come back again. The kids, old and young, loved the beach, the hot tub, and looking for shells. The house was well appointed! We did so much cooking for both birthdays in this well equipped kitchen. Lots of extras. The elevator went all the way to the third floor, which meant we didn't have to carry anything up the stairs! Beautiful property. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay and celebrate this great occasion. Thanks again for everything. We truly had an amazing time.

Great Home & Location, But Non-Functional Elevator

We loved everything about this home except that we chose it because it had an elevator, which we really needed, and the elevator stopped working right after we moved in. My husband recently had two hip replacements, and my daughter had to carry a baby up 3 flights of stairs constantly, so this was a major discomfort to them. In addition to not working, it beeped every hour all night for 4 nights, disrupting everyone's sleep. We had a 7 month old on the third floor and two 4 year olds, so by the 4th day everyone's nerves were rattled. The property manager, Bob, was there several times and did his best to remedy the situation, finally disconnecting the battery to make the beeping stop, since the elevator company was unavailable for repairs. There was also a broken vent in the dryer, which tore up my daughters clothing, which Bob quickly repaired and gave us a $150.00 gift card to a local restaurant, which was nice. We realize there is nothing an owner can do to keep an elevator from acting up, but what would have been an AWESOME 5 star stay, turned out to be rather exhausting.

Very nice. Consistent with the reviews.

A couple concerns we had before the week...that proved to be non-issues: We thought there might be noise coming through the common wall. Nope. Never heard the neighbors. This place is one of six that shares a small poo. We thought it might be crowded. Nope. Yes, the pool capacity is on the low side, but it was never crowded. Not suitable for lap swimming, but great for our kids....aged 2 - 10. The only negative I can think of that may be an issue for some was the wifi. If you really need a fast internet connection, this might be a problem. General comments: The property manager, Bob, was excellent. We had a small problem when we got there and Bob was on site within a couple hours after I called . Also, Bob was very responsive online leading up to our arrival. Very good guy to deal with. We're an extended family of ten and the common area (kitchen, dining and living areas) were not huge, but plenty of room for us...especially the ten-seat dining table. We've never had an elevator before. In fact, I never even thought about an elevator in a vacation home. This one was great. It extended from the ground level all the way up to the top (third) floor. It made settling in and packing up a breeze. Great location, great beach with very easy access, nicely furnished, excellent condition. Thanks for a great week.

We had a wonderful stay. It was a beautiful property as advertised. The kitchen was fully stocked, which made it easy to cook meals for 8 people. There was plenty of room, so we didn't feel crowded. We loved having the beach steps away. Great views and we loved sitting out on the decks in the evenings. The elevator was a bonus. Thank you for a great property.

40th Anniversary trip w/ the Family

House was nice and clean. Loved being steps from the beach! Hot tub was a nice touch in the evening, to rejuvenate for the next day with the grand kids. Was a little worried about it being a duplex but our neighbors on all sides were nice, and quiet in the evenings. Overall wonderful trip with the family.

Beach bonanza

Three generations enjoyed a sun and surf filled week filled with early morning walks and evening spent watching for a turtle hatch a short walk up the beach. We enjoyed the outdoor shower and views from the porch of the Atlantic. I highly recommend this home for a large family. They will have a ball, we certainly did.
