Looking for an escape and a retreat? Discover “Life” in a quiet, private, breathtaking location, steps from the sand, with panoramic ocean views on the exclusive island of North Topsail Beach.
Located on the tip of the island, the home is ideally situated for witnessing the most amazing, unobstructed sunrises over the ocean that the island has to offer. Experience a sliver of a quiet and private paradise, all while being a short drive from grocery stores, restaurants, and beach shops. The beauty of the location is unique and one to be experienced.
This home has been newly renovated and boasts all new mattresses, bedding, flooring, a new washer and dryer, fresh paint, professional decor, as well as many other extras. The home is perfect for families with kids and includes toys, games, a Pac-Man arcade machine, a booster seat, a high chair, a Pack 'n Play, a baby walker, baby gates, and beach toys. Additional perks that make this home more accessible include safety bars next to all toilets and in all showers for added support, two accessibility-friendly toilets, and a shower seat for those who may need to sit while bathing.
Since the island is known for its breathtaking sunrises and sunsets, guests will be happy to view them from every room of the home, which is strategically full of windows. The large, open floor plan—consisting of bright and airy living, dining, and kitchen areas—is ideal for groups and families and provides sweeping 180-degree ocean views.
The well-equipped kitchen has granite countertops, a prep sink, several new appliances, and all new kitchen necessities, including extras such as a slow cooker, Instapot, rice cooker, Keurig, and air fryer. There is plenty of seating for everyone to eat together, either at the spacious island with seating for eight or the adjacent large dining table with seating for ten. Little ones can join too, with both a booster seat and a separate high chair available.
Off the kitchen, spend time reading or watching the shrimp boats come and go from the cozy bay window seat with gorgeous ocean views. Relax in the living area, which includes three comfortable couches and two oversized chairs, enjoy the surround sound system, and admire the local art scattered throughout this peaceful room. From any seat, simply turn your head to take in the incredible ocean views through the wall of sliding glass doors that open to oceanfront decks.
Vacation means relaxing, so take advantage of the whole-house elevator, which makes bringing in groceries and luggage effortless. You will also appreciate the convenient second refrigerator located on the ground level with exterior access, perfect for drinks, bait, and extra groceries.
Enjoy the provided beach chairs, life jackets, sand toys, a sand wagon, a sun umbrella, coolers, cornhole, and pool toys. After a day on the beach or pier, rinse off in the freshwater outdoor shower with a newly updated rain shower head. When you need a break from the sand, step into the backyard and enjoy one of the few private pools on the island.
For another place to unwind, escape the daytime sun or relax in the evening with stargazing, a cocktail, and the soothing sound of the ocean from the hot tub located on the oceanfront second-floor deck.
Retreat back inside and listen to the sound of crashing waves from one of the two primary bedrooms, both featuring whirlpool baths and separate showers, or from one of the other three oceanfront bedrooms with private baths. The sixth bedroom includes bunk beds, a pond view, and a shared guest bath with oceanfront bedroom number five.
Feel free to sleep in—each bedroom is outfitted with blackout curtains for your comfort. Whether you prefer to swim and fish, sunbathe and read, or nap by the sea, you will find plenty of seating inside and outside to socialize or retreat for privacy.
There are endless opportunities for activity and just as many places to unwind. This home boasts an exclusive, prime location and will likely remind you of a place you've only seen in books or movies. Appropriately named “Life,” this is where you may just discover a new way of living.

We loved every minute we stayed here! Easy to access, quiet location, the house is well appointed with inside and outside amenities. The beach is steps away and the pool was a hit with the kids. We will definitely stay again!

Perfect for large families with small kids
This beautiful kid friendly home was the perfect beach vacation for our family. The listing was spot on! Everything was there that they said would be! The beach was so close and perfect for our tent or to park our truck for a day of surf fishing!
We want to book again next year! The Tiki Bar was priceless! So close and convenient. We went everyday and for Karaoke! That was so fun! Such a family friendly beach.
Splash by the Sea was a great restaurant also!
Loved This Place!!!!!
The house had a great layout with all the amenities. We’ve already rebooked for next summer. Thank you!!

Awesome house
Amazing vacation spot! I spent the week here with my large family and we had a blast. Plenty of space. Well stocked kitchen. The beach is easily accessible with an amazing ocean view right from the deck! The house was clean and comfortable and you could tell the host took pride in details and guest comfort. The pool was great for relaxing in the later afternoon. I would definitely recommend this home and look forward to staying again in the future.

One of the best homes!
This is honestly one of the cleanest, nicest homes I’ve ever rented for a vacation! It had so many kitchen tools, appliances, dishes, etc. and they were all in such great working order. Every room was very clean upon arrival. The furniture was very comfortable as well. I appreciated all of the toys for my little one as well. Such an added bonus! I would highly recommend this house to anyone!

Beautiful and Peaceful
This house has it all. It is gorgeous inside and out with stunning views from every angle. We loved the secluded feeling. This property also had a lot of children items available, the best being baby gates to keep our toddler from accessing any stairs which allowed us to sit back and relax and not have to guard the stairs constantly. He loved playing with all the toys that were there already for our stay. We will definitely lol to book this property again in the future.
The house was beautiful and spacious. We had an issue with the elevator on second day and they couldn't get the elevator tech right out there. It was going to be later that night. The manager with Vicasa came on out and worked on the elevator and got the issue fixed in no time. We will stay there again. Thank you Vicasa

Great Vacation Beach House!
The beach house was very spacious, clean and nicely decorated. Every kitchen appliance, including flatware and plates, was available. The elevator made loading and unloading extremely easy! Even though the house did not sit directly on the beach, there was a clear view of the beach and the sunrises and sunsets were breathtaking. A very short walk to the beach. The pool was also a plus. When the kids were tired of sand, the pool was a WIN! Grocery store, restaurants and Souvenier shops were only 12 minutes away! We will definitely go back! ❤️

Beautiful House with Million Dollar Views
Beautiful newly renovated beach house with beautiful views and awesome location. Perfect multi family destination that will appeal to everyone. You have the beach, pool, hot tub, two large balcony’s to hang out at or just relax in the cool house and enjoys the views from every window watching your favorite movies. The cooks will enjoy the well appointed kitchen that literally has everything and sooo much space. I brought two jet skis and enjoyed riding all around the area and playing in the surf. You can put in from the beach less then a mile away. There is not enough words to describe how relaxing and enjoyable our stay was. We even tried to stay a couple more days because we all didn’t want to go home. We definitely will be back again to stay. You will not be disappointed!!!

This house where do I begin …. It’s absolutely beautiful and has EVERYTHING you could possibly need . The location was perfect for my family . We took my mother that had just been released from the hospital and was recovering from a surgical site infection. Also my mother-in-law that was just in the hospital with blood clots in both legs . They were able to sit on the deck and watch their 4 great grandsons play on the beach . They also enjoyed being able to sit by the pool in the evenings and watch them swim . We did have to cut our vacation short due to a death in the family but it’s one that we’ll never forget . One of the best and will cherish it forever ❤️😎🏖️
Thanks from the Hall gang !!

BEST RETREAT VACATION SPOT EVER!
I don't typically write reviews but this vacation home deserves it! From the moment we arrived in the driveway we enjoyed every minute of our stay! The elevator going in was so convenient so we didn't have to take our luggage or groceries all up by hand. Upon entry the home was exceptionally clean and smelled fresh. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you would need to cook every night if you wanted. The home was decorated gorgeously, but not in a way where I felt uncomfortable with my kids going about the house on pins and needles. It brought all the beauty and comfort we could ever ask for and everyone in our family could relax and enjoy themselves. The views were absolutely breathtaking and one of my favorite parts of our stay was drinking coffee on the front deck with a full view of the morning ocean. This home really has everything. Not only are there so many beds and rooms, there is a private deck off of most bedrooms and even more importantly a bathroom for each room. This was a huge convenience especially after our group came back from the beach and needed to clean up. The weather was perfect during our stay - hot during the day to enjoy the the private pool in the back, and cool enough at night to enjoy the hot tub on the deck. The beach was super clean and private, and the kids loved all of the marine life on the beach - we saw many turtles and small crabs in the early morning or evening hours. There were games and cards left for us to play with and a mount toss ring game on the lower deck by the grill that we played with while grilling out. If you are looking for somewhere to relax and spend time with friend/family without the hustle and annoyance of crowds or traffic you HAVE to stay here. Guaranteed with this place you have found the spot and you will not be disappointed- I am sure of that!
