We loved our stay, even though we had not such great weather due to Tropical storm Debby, the proximity to the beach and the private pool made it easy to get outside during the few hours of clearer skies.
The house was plenty big to spread out with adults and teens, plus being able to walk into town was super fun for the teens.
The beach bag welcome gift was also so nice! The house was well equipped with the necessities, and we loved the laundry basket/hampers for each room. The only thing that is missing is full length mirrors.
Thanks for a great stay!
We had a wonderful time at this property. Absolutely loved having a pool and spent most of our time either on a deck in the shade or by the pool. Quick access to grocery and restraints. Quiet neighborhood with just a short walk to the ocean. I would definitely go again. Host was very kind and responsive.
We stayed in this property back in 2021 as well. While we would certainly prefer to be on the beach, this house is only a block away with easy beach access. The private pool is a big plus, since we had three children with us under 3. There was plenty of room for the 8 adults and 3 kids - lots of room to congregate and also enough room to get away from the others if/when we needed to.
This house was the perfect setup for our family. The private beach access is a must and would most likely be a deal breaker if not available. I would recommend this house for sure. We had 11 people in the house and there was plenty of room for everyone. Awesome spot!!!
The house is great. Clean, organized, provisioned, etc. We were a group of two families with four adults and seven kids from 7-13. The proximity to the beach and lack of crowd was one of the best parts of this property... The pool is small (like most others on Topsail), but served it's purpose well. The owners are super fast to respond to any and all communications.
One star deducted for neighborhood; the house next door is a dump with detritus all over it. This really drags down the nice properties around it.
I also deducted one star for cleanliness... While the overall property was very nice and clean, little things like the fridges and freezers, stairwells, etc definitely need more attention from the cleaning company.
Overall, we would absolutely book this property again...!
We had a great time during our annual beach trip and we’re so glad we decided to stay 2 weeks this year at the beehive! What a wonderful home! The kids and adults alike loved the private pool as well as the convenient short walk to the beach and pier. There was plenty of room for everyone in the house. Would definitely suggest staying here!
This property was perfect for our family. There were 7 adults and 5 kids. There was plenty of space to spread out and enjoy everything. The pool was very popular and perfect size. My kids have asked that we book this property again for the next vacation.
My family and I enjoyed our stay. The short walking distance to the beach was perfect!! There was plenty of room for our family. The salt water pool was well liked by the kiddos. We would definitely stay here again!
We had a wonderful visit to the beach hive!! We have 8 kids, 6 parents who all enjoyed the spacious house, amazing pool, and easily walkable distance to the beach!
We typically stay in North Topsail beach, but wanted to try Surf City side. A lot more traffic and some car noise all night long were the only downsides to this awesome house!
Lots of amenities and space for our 3 families and all our things :)
Would love to visit the Beach Hive again some summer soon!
Great vacation. My family has been coming to topsail for many years and this was first time we stayed in surf city. The house had everything we needed and was very clean!
We had a wide range of ages and every single one of us had a fantastic time at the beach hive! The location was close to the beach and long walkable to the pier. The property was well kept and clean and the pool was amazing. The only downside was I wish there was an enclosed outdoor shower. All in all this place was great, Jeff and Genevieve were super helpful and responsive, and we would definitely rent again!
This is our 3rd year renting this home for our annual family beach vacation. We find it to be the perfect size, very comfortable and nicely furnished and the kids (and me) love the pool. The owners are very responsive should you need to contact them. You can’t go wrong with this home! Highly recommend this property!
