The beach was amazing but the stay was even better. On our way we received a call that the property was available to check-in early. We have never had this happen before and was great! Family friendly and a great welcoming stay.

Peaceful stay

This place is exactly as it seems in the pictures. Super easy access to the beach among it perfect for the little ones who don’t want to spend all their time in the sand. I would definitely recommend for those wanting privacy as well as close proximity to the beach.

Perfect seaside retreat

Deanna is the perfect host- from beginning to (too soon) end - a lovely, super clean home with everything one needs for a relaxing vacation retreat. Lovely porches with beautiful views of the ocean. We only wished we could have stayed longer.

Great vacation

Access was awesome, we have a 2 and a 3 year old, so access to the beach was amazing, everything was great, the o ky thing was i wished the bedrooms were upstairs and living space was downstairs, waking up to beach and waves is what you want at the beach, otherwise the trip amd experience was everything we wanted

BEST RENTAL EXPERIENCE SO FAR!The Sail is so well maintained! We have been renting through various companies in North Topsail Beach for 22 years. This is our first trip using VRBO and first time at this property. This is the first vacation that our rental was actually clean. It had nice linens, comfortable beds, and the kitchen had all the necessary tools to cook our meals. We will definitely stay here again!

Beautiful spot on the beach

This was our 4th visit to Topsail Island and our first stay at "The Sail". We had a wonderful stay here! Beds were very comfortable and we had everything we needed. The duplex is right on the beach and offers a beautiful view from the decks. "The Sail" will be at the top of our list when we visit Topsail Island again. Deanna was an exceptional host!

Excellent Location for Relaxing Getaway

We loved our stay at this property! It was the perfect size for me & my husband to enjoy a week at the beach relaxing. The location is perfect -- far enough away from town to enjoy the quiet, close enough that you can still go out for dinner; and you're steps from the beach. We had a small hiccup with the A/C in the unit, but the property owner (who is wonderful) came by immediately to assess/address the issue. Would definitely stay here again.

Very clean and bright, excellent location, was very well stocked with everything you could need. Lovely ocean front views. Beautiful sunsets and sunrises. Rocking chairs nicely located on upper and lower decks. Kitchen also well stocked. Nice garage to park car ( shared with other duplex people) with plenty of room. Chairs and beach toys supplied and wonderful outside shower w cold and hot water available. Deanne very attentive and helpful. Responds quickly to all questions. She very thoughtfully called ahead to welcome me into her duplex and answer all questions ahead of time. Rules, trash take out, explanation of how keyless lock worked, restaurants recommended in the vicinity , grocery stores nearby etc all explained in house notebook very helpfully and clearly. Loved this “ slice of heaven” and hope to come back soon!!Thank you Deanne!!!
