The location is near the fartherest end of the beach so there is very few people - meaning it was great for the kids to play without ever worry about too many people being around.
The unit itself was in perfect condition when we arrived and the neighborhood was very quiet and relaxing to be in.
We will def be looking into this location again for next years vacation. :D
The Lazy Loggerhead was perfect for our family of 6. The property was clean and well maintained with everything we needed for our stay. Easy access to the beach and close proximity to the laundry room. Alan even sent messages throughout our stay and restaurant recommendations. Would absolutely stay here again. It was perfect!
It was nice and quiet. Did do much as I was there to take care of my daughter after knee surgery. It provided what we needed.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Disliked: Location
We booked this rental for a 5 night beach getaway but unfortunately had to leave after just one night due to a very strong mildew and mold odor throughout the unit. While the place was clean and well kept in terms of housekeeping, the overwhelming smell was inescapable, and two of us woke up with noticeable allergy symptoms. As we’re aware this type of issue isn’t a quick fix, we made the decision to relocate.Another challenge was the lack of central air conditioning. The unit relies on portable AC units, which were loud and not effective enough to keep the space comfortably cool.Lastly, while the property is technically beachfront, direct beach access was blocked by sandbags placed along the shore to protect against high water. Guests have to take a detour to reach the beach, which wasn’t mentioned clearly in the listing.We would strongly discourage others from renting this unit until the odor issue is fully resolved and more accurate information is provided regarding beach access and cooling.

About the host
Hosted by Paragon Vacations
Paragon Vacations manages this gorgeous home for it's owner who cares deeply about the property and the location. They wish to offer their 2nd home to others in the hope they enjoy their time relaxing in North Topsail Beach as much as they do!
Why they chose this property
The Topsail Reef HOA is a very unique condo complex- you literally cannot get any closer to the ocean! During high-tides the water comes right up to the sandbags- at first it may be a little worrisome, but rest-assured the building is safe! It is incredibly calming to sit out on the balcony, staring out at miles and miles of endless ocean while listening to the waves crashing below. The town & HOA work diligently every year on beach nourishment projects
"The Reef" is a popular location because of its tranquil and low-key atmosphere and its proximity to the inlet, which is a great place to take a walk and comb the beach for treasures.
