Beachfront home rentals with a pool

Pool | Beachfront | Private Hot Tub | Elevator
We had a fantastic stay at Erin and Jeremy's place over Easter weekend. Everything was as described and Erin and Jeremy were very responsive when we did have an issue (needed to restart the router for the internet). More over, either they themselves are very honorable or their cleaners are, because less than two hours after we'd left I received a text from Jeremy asking if we had left some valuable jewelry in one of the bathrooms. One of our guests had, and they were able to quickly make arrangements with Jeremy to have them shipped to their house. It shouldn't dissuade you from booking, but it is worth mentioning that the shared deck on the main floor is very much shared. The partition doesn't extend very far out so you'll likely get very familiar with the renters next to you. Not a big deal for us, but something to consider. Beach access is quick and easy. Well-stocked kitchen. Overall, we had an excellent visit and would definitely recommend this place for any Topsail renters!

LUXE | POOL | Steps to OCEAN | BEACH | VILLA
The townhouse was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed ! The location was amazing and check in was extremely easy !

MAY SALE! Luxury 3Bedroom Pool, Steps from Beach
Perfect location for a Thanksgiving get away. Super close to the ocean and the little downtown area. Access to Morehead City and beautiful Beaufort is just minutes away. The house efficiently packs 3 bedrooms and 3 baths with a fully loaded kitchen. Beautiful sunsets and amazing ocean walks. Communication with Steve is a solid 10!!!

Oceanfront home- pool, playground, 3 suites, beach
Great place and fantastic location. End unit on a townhouse with a shared pool and public beach access, but still felt private and you're on the beach in seconds...you couldn't get any closer! The deck with view was absolutely stunning and perfect of you enjoy people watching :) The host was very responsive and helpful; I particularly liked the list of local eats/activities (I would have underlined Shaka Taco if I had a piece of chalk!). Definitely recommend!

Pool + Rooftop + Easy Beach Access + Unit Elevator
The place exceeding our expectations. It was easy to get into when we checked in. We had five adults and two children (ages 2 and 6) in our family. My 80 year old mother was with as well. The elevator was a life saver for her. The layout allowed the parents and children to have the entire 2nd floor to themselves. Great grandma also stayed on the 2nd floor as there were 3 bedrooms and two full bathrooms on this floor. The 4th floor was a great place to hang out, play games, and put a huge puzzle together. It also had an amazing sleep space, although we did not need it. The full bathroom on this floor was also much appreciated. The kitchen was amazing, having everything we needed to cook and enjoy meals together throughout the week. The beach was very close (3 min walk) on a nice boarded walk way with no traffic or worries as we walked with little ones daily. The pool was very close as well and made a great alternative when kids tired of the beach. Highly recommend!

The Beach Hive - Oceanview Condo - 2bdrm
The host was extremely responsive. Loved the place. Everything in Surf City is super close. Had a great stay. Would rent again!

Spacious Beach Stay w/ Pool, Spa, Views & Kings!
Amazing stay we came for my son birthday and had an amazing time at the beach and a beautiful home right near the beach, only downside the pool was closed but other than that everything was perfect.

Sound Front-Beach Access & Pool - Linens Included!
Our stay was nice and relaxing. Alyssa provided more than any Airbnb I've been to. Paper towels, toilet paper, bath and hand towels and wash cloths (that are absorbant!), large soft beach towels, shampoo/conditioner/body wash, hand soap, laundry detergent and dish washing detergent. And other than cleanliness, perhaps one of the most important things (for me), no fragrances! No plugins, scent-free detergent, no linens or towels dried with overpowering dryer sheets, no lingering perfume scent in the washer or dryer. Beds and couches were very comfortable. Because of the extra thought put into the space, it was stress and headache free. The view of the sunset was beautiful and the private beach access across the street was very convenient. This place is going into my "favorites" wish list for the future.

Topsails Treasure | Oceanfront Luxury | Spa + Pool
We had a fantastic stay at Michelle & Mark’s place. The location right on the beach is lovely and a wonderful place for a family vacation. The bunk bed room for our grandchildren worked very well! Michelle & Mark responded to our questions and were so helpful and accommodating. We would definitely love to return again!!

The Salt Box Beach House of Surf City, NC
Staying at this Airbnb felt like a true escape. The location couldn't have been better – being mere steps from the beach was such a treat, allowing for spontaneous walks and the calming sound of the waves. It was wonderful to find such a genuinely dog-friendly place; my pups absolutely loved it, which made the stay even more enjoyable for me. The entire atmosphere was incredibly relaxing, and I found the off-season to be a particularly lovely time to visit, with beautiful weather and a sense of peacefulness. The property itself had everything I could possibly need, making it easy to settle in and feel comfortable. Amy was fantastic – always communicative and helpful, ensuring a smooth and easy stay. While there were plenty of options for things to do in the area, I also appreciated the opportunity to simply unwind and work remotely in such a serene setting. The upper deck was my favorite spot for getting sun many hours of the day. I’ve stayed in many airbnbs and this is a favorite!

Beachfront Double Master Bedroom•Hot Tub•Toys!
Great location on the beach. UPS/FedEX do not deliver to the address even though it's clearly labeled, just FYI. If you love specific pillows, bring your own. The house was great and we loved the view each morning when the sun came up. Kids enjoyed walking around and down to the shops, etc.

Oceanfront Jewel w/ Hot Tub. Best view on Island!
Girls Trip with 7 others. The place was peaceful and love the beach access. Nice and quiet. The inside was very roomy. And the kitchen has all the things you need. Very thoughtful and personal. I booked it again.

The Turtle's Nest- Oceanfront Cottage - Hot Tub -
This was an absolutely perfect Topsail vacation home! We loved every minute of our stay. The location is absolutely fantastic. So close to the little local shops and restaurants as well as super close to the bridge going over to the mainland.. The house itself was spotless and quite comfortable. Had everything we needed to cook full meals. Plenty of kitchenware for our group of seven. Proximity to the beach is by far the most fantastic detail of this house! The little private sandy beach *yard* attached to the deck is awesome for kids and the beach itself just down a few steps is so amazing. We could even sit in bed and see the ocean waves! This is the best house with beach access and views we've stayed at in Topsail. Also positive to note, the entire property being fenced in felt incredibly safe for kids and was fantastic for our dog. We realized the apartment was a part of the rental unit and we were so pleasantly surprised! It was a great separate space! Overall highly recommend!

Hot tub, Beach Front, Private, Walk to Restaurants
Will visit again! The location can’t get any better if you want to be right on the beach when you open the backdoor.

"Toes In the Water" - steps to beach w/ Hot Tub!
Host was extremely responsive! My kids enjoyed all the games,activities, bikes, etc. My husband throughly enjoyed the hot tuband I enjoyed the peaceful surrounding. The walk to the beach was short, there was something for everyone in our group to enjoy.

2 Oceanfront Decks, Hot tub, Walk to Everything
Jamies house is spotless and super well stocked. We cooked in every single night. It is so close to everything. We had a big issue which was no fault if the owners and they took very good care of us. Communication was outstanding.

We are repeat guests at Pook's Place, and we're always excited to return. The house, neighborhood, hosts, and location are all great. We'll be returning every year!

Pet Friendly Beach Cottage at Emerald Isle
This home exceeded our expectations! The location of this home was just beautiful. The home itself was very roomy yet cozy for 2 families with 3 children to enjoy. It was also super clean. This Airbnb had the best equipped kitchen i’ve ever seen in a rental with plenty of good quality pots, pans, dishes bowls, various glassware for cocktails, and grilling tools. Even plenty of plastic dishes for kids, ziplock bags and plastic wrap! No detail was forgotten. There are plenty of areas to enjoy meals or just hang out inside the house , out on the deck or on the patio. I also wanted to mention there were plenty of towels, extra pillows and bedding for all 7 of us. I didn’t have any issues but reached out to Matthew to let him know we were very pleased with his home and he responded right away. Matthew’s home provided us with the opportunity to enjoy a wonderful family vacation in Emerald Isle and we look forward to visiting again in the future.

Little House On The Beach
This place was perfect for my wife and our dogs! Beachfront location is amazing! Updated, beautiful & fully stocked kitchen was helpful. Host was extremely responsive, very timely and answered all our questions. We will definitely look into staying here again!

Walk to N Topsail with Marsh Views & Dog friendly
We took our four adult kids to the beach for the weekend, and this place was just right! We used every balcony, got our exercise on the stairs, walked to the beach several times, cooked several meals and relaxed. We loved the views! The beds were comfortable, and everything was truly clean or else my family members with sensitive allergies would have been bothered. The dog next door was always contained, looked sweet, and only barked to say hi when we were coming and going. You may want to reference the tide charts online before taking your beach gear down or planning a walk. Most of the day and night are available for playing, walking, and hanging out on the beautiful beach, but because of erosion there are moments when there is more surf than sand. It's a lovely, comfortable, family-oriented place!

Coastal 3BR Home with Ocean Views & Pet-Friendly
The house was beautiful and had everything we needed for comfort. We used every deck! Super close to the beach, beautiful peaceful view of the sound. It had everything we could possibly need. Karen sent recommendations for food and they did not disappoint! Loved our stay!

Pet friendly 3BR/2Ba Oceanside, Own Beach Access
This place was exactly as listed. The access to the beach made it so easy. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and will definitely return.

Sleeps 10, Large Patio, Fenced-In Yard, RV Parking
The Beach Barn was absolutely perfect. Ocean views from the back, canal views from the front. There was plenty of room for all of us (10). This house had everything and more.

Surf Condo - Dog Friendly, w/ Private Ocean View!
Great condo! Clean well taken care of!
