Great Experience

Our family loved staying here. We love that the townhome is right at the beach and we don’t have to cross a road with small children to get to the sand. All rooms have tvs with WiFi connection. The kids loved that. Will stay here again.

Fantastic Surf City Trip

We had a great time here. The excellent beach access was only about 50 steps from the front door, and the check-in process was so easy. Ted was always quick to respond to questions and was so accommodating. The home was clean, and the kitchen was fully equipped. We highly recommend staying at this neat home!

Everything we needed.

This unit had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The kitchen was fully equipped, beach chairs and umbrellas were very appreciated (even though we had brought our own). Beds were comfy. The dog crate, bowls and baby gates were very helpful also so we didn’t have to bring our own.

Our stay

It was really nice. Two things though. Dishes were still in dishwasher. They were clean. I put them away. Secondly, the living room floor was a bit unclean. Our small dog found two hard crackers with garlic on them and a popsicle stick. I think they were at the edge of the front of the couchs.Otherwise, everything was good.

Perfect location in Surf City

This condo is far enough from the pier in Surf City to keep the the crowds away, but close enough that businesses and restaurants are convenient. The site is slightly removed from being directly on the beach, but the ocean can be seen and it's relaxing to sit on the deck and watch the waves roll in and the people walk by. Getting to the beach is as easy as can be--just down a path and a few steps and your toes are in the sand. The house is very comfortable and the kitchen has everything needed, even if you want to cook instead of eating out. Highly recommended!

Great Location

We’ve been coming to Topsail for years as a family and typically stay further south. The location of this property could not have been better. Essentially oceanfront as it’s only 20ish steps to the beach from the front door. Ability to be anywhere on the island or across the bridge in 5 minutes or less. This would be a great stay for bike riding but our kids are too young for that. Property was clean and well appointed with kitchen utensils, etc. Washer and dryer work well although a few of our items came away with tiny rust stains that we’ll have to work on at home but I’m sure will come out. Dishwasher worked great and was quiet. We would recommend this to any family considering staying in Surf City.

Very nice trip!

Ted was always available when I had questions. We were very happy with the house and had a nice view of the beach. The house was well maintained and the kitchen had many accessories. It wasn't the best time of year, as it was still quite cold, but we pretty much had the beach to ourselves. The pier was close enough to walk to and we watched lots of folks bringing in fish. We had lunch at Daddy Mack's, which was also in walking distance. It had a most amazing view and great service and the food was good. A very nice small town. I really enjoyed the experience.

Another Great Vacation!

This was our second year in a row staying in Fan-To-Sea....loved it just as much this time as the first! This year we enjoyed a couple of new places we hadn't been before. One was an awesome walk on the pier! It's so close and what a view! The other was the New York Deli, which was with in walking distance (we drove because we figured we would be too full to walk back! LOL!). Great trip...got to bring our pups! Great area...lots of family fun nearby! Great place to stay...beautiful, clean, and super comfy recliners! 🙂 Thank you! Hope to get a chance to come back next year!

Perfect Location!

This location is really ideal. Its like 50 steps from the front door before your toes touch sand. It’s close enough to the bridge, stores, restaurants, pier, & did I mention 50 steps to the sand!! The condo has all the kitchen things you will need. Top end appliances. Excellent attention to details. I could log into my netflix account from the master bedroom & hook up my fire stick upstairs TV in the living room. The beds are so super comfy. Any little issue you run into the owner, Ted, will send a trusted person to the home to address the issue in no time flat & no inconvenience to your day. I really loved how dog friendly the home & community are in Surf City. Great condo!

About the host

Hosted by Alicea Villalobos

Host profile image
Welcome to The Breezeway Shores! My husband, Carlos, and I have been married since 2019 (dated since 2013). We are originally from Kansas, but have been living in North Carolina since 2017. Carlos owns a concrete contracting construction company. I am a night nurse in High Risk Postpartum (post-delivery nurse). We have a very energetic son named Alexander. He always keeps us on our toes! In our free time, you will catch us at the beach, our absolute favorite place to be.

Why they chose this property

Ever since we moved to the east coast, we were always trying to find time to go to the beach. Out of all the beaches we go to, this area has been our go-to spot. We love the beautiful view of the ocean. There's nothing like crossing the bridge into Surf City and feeling the beachtown vibes!

What makes this property unique

It has always been our dream to one day own a beach house. When we found this property, we immediately fell in love with it! It may not be the definition of a beach front, but it is pretty darn close! We love that you don't have to cross a busy intersection to get to the beach. The beach house has its own private access to the beach. The convenience of the location allows you to set up your personal spot on the beach and be able to go back into the townhome to grab a bite to eat. This townhome has a deck, which gives you a great view of the ocean. Listening to the ocean has such calming effects. This is a great location that is within walking distance to many restaurants in Surf City.
