Top Surf City Beach Hotel Reviews

Serenity Oceanview + King Suite + Pool + 2 Beaches

10/10 Excellent

"We really liked staying here. The big windows to see the sunrises, sunsets across the deck were amazing. All the added personal touches were well appreciated,from the personalized welcome note, to the dog bowls, towels, sheets, shampoo, hand and body wash. It was our home away from home. Fully stocked, very functional kitchen. Very comfortable king sized bed. We highly recommend it this wonderful home."

Queen's Grant Oceanfront Condo, Topsail Beach, 1st Floor, Pool, Boat access.

10/10 Excellent

"Awsome views and very convenient to all of the activities on the Island."

Sweet Serenity | Oceanfront Townhouse!

8/10 Good

"We loved our stay and the location beachfront was wonderful. The beds were comfy and communication was above average. Being on the beach the wear and tear on the interior was obvious. Updating and organizing the kitchen plus replacing overly used throw rugs didnt take away from our fun but would keep me from making this a five star review. I will definitely schedule a return."

"Beautiful property! Ted was an amazing host. He answered my text and calls promptly prior to our visit. We were traveling with our 12 yr old medically complex grandson. Ted helped to make sure we had everything we needed to accommodate our grandson for our trip. He even helped to make sure we had a beach wheelchair for him, We are looking forward to returning next year! Highly recommend"

Amazing Single-Family Oceanfront Vacation Home

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our vacation at Sea-Zen. The home was perfect for our family vacation. Very clean! View of the ocean from every room. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook every night and big enough pots and pans for a big family. And the refrigerator is huge. The host was also amazing and responded to my questions within minutes. I was concerned when I read reviews about the thermostat and being hot, but I never once got hot or even uncomfortable."
