New Favorite Vacation Spot

This was our first time visiting North Topsail and it was amazing. The house is beautiful and was home away from home. Loved having views of the ocean and inlet. We loved the pool, beach, hot tub, decks and porch swing. We will definitely be returning!

We loved everything about our week at Island Asylum! The house was very clean and very well equipped and decorated. We all loved the easy beach access and the pool and hot tub! The kitchen was great, loved the gas stove, and the gas grill was nice to have as well. Beds were comfy and very large tvs in each room. Will definitely come back!

Hard to say goodbye!

This was our first visit to North Topsail Island and we were not disappointed. The house was very clean and nicely decorated when we arrived. Very impressed with the accommodations. The kitchen was fully furnished with everything you could possibly need. There was even foil and plastic wrap. There is a gas grill and charcoal grill. Even the charcoal was provided. Plenty of pool floats and sand toys. The home is three stories and the elevator came in handy after shopping for groceries. My favorite part of the home was sitting on the swing on the upper deck listening to the ocean and admiring the view. We are a family of seven and we had plenty of room for dinning at the table or watching a bit of TV. The deck that leads to the lower level where the pool is has a secure gate, since our 2 year old Granddaughter was with us we really liked having that gate there. Prior to our arrival we were provided an App for our phone that included a welcome book and local area guide. We found it to be very useful. A family member unfortunately got stung pretty bad by a jelly fish and the phone number and address to the local urgent care and nearest hospital was literally at our fingertips as that info was provided in the App. The beach was not crowded and just a short walk from the home. Walking on the beach after dinner collecting shark teeth was a favorite of ours. If you are looking for a nice, relaxing vacation to unplug, enjoy family and make memories, the Island Asylum is where you want to be, it was hard to leave!!

Great week!

We had a great time at Island Asylum. I think the best part was the second floor TV room, the kids had their space and adults could enjoy the upstairs when we needed some space. The pool was great especially bc the ocean was rough after a storm so we were able to hang at the pool!

Quiet, relaxing vacation!

This home is lovely, clean, & decently equipped. We could tell that it & its contents have been very well taken care of. There was plenty of room for our family of eight to spread out. We used the den as an extra bedroom. Beautiful views of the beach & sound. It is not beach front, but it really is. The beach access is public but basically in the back yard. It’s much closer then the photos make it look. I was worried that the condos behind the house would take away from the aesthetics but it didn’t at all. We spent a lot of time outside & were not disturbed by the sight or noise. The condos do block the sunrise but not the beach views. The pool is fantastic, lots of floats available to lounge on. We brought our hammocks & hung them on the posts under the house, such a great atmosphere outside. There are also cornhole boards, a great sound system & sand toys! Linens were nice & it was fantastic that they provided toiletries & cleaning supplies. No need to bring extra blankets, there are plenty. There’s even an inflatable mattress. Beach is very nice & not crowded. Property manager was very responsive to our very minor issue. Our only complaint is that the beds were too firm for our liking, we had achy backs all week- but that’s a personal preference. I’d like to suggest adding a large serving tray to the kitchen for transport to/from grill, travel mugs for coffee on the beach & an iron. The grill is excellent, the grill master was very impressed. We were very thankful for the elevator & used it quite a bit- there are a lot of stairs in this house & we were up & down constantly! We would definitely stay here again! This was our first time in Topsail & we are so glad we chose it & this house. Thanks for a great vacation!

The perfect house/stay for our family!

We had a great time at Topsail! This house was so nice and clean and had everything we needed. We loved that the beach access was so close to the house so we didn’t have to pack everything up and haul it there. We could come and go as we pleased. The pool was perfect for our kids (us too)! We loved the top balcony and spent most of our evenings on it enjoying the sound and view of the ocean. The porch swing was awesome too. Michelle was very responsive and helpful to any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat. It was the perfect house for our family! You can tell a lot of work and love was put into this house for families to enjoy. Thank you Island Asylum (Michelle) for the wonderful memories that were created for our family!

Best Beach House

We have stayed at NTB every summer for over 15 years. This was the the best house to date. The house is new, clean, nice furnishings and everything works exactly how it's supposed to. The porch swing with the ocean view is remarkable and we saw dolphins almost every day. The sound view from the front is a gorgeous sunset view. We spent a lot of time in the pool and enjoyed the hot tub a time or two also. The beach access is in the back and although it is public access we had no issues with overcrowding.
