Peaceful stay
This place is exactly as it seems in the pictures. Super easy access to the beach among it perfect for the little ones who don’t want to spend all their time in the sand. I would definitely recommend for those wanting privacy as well as close proximity to the beach.

Perfect seaside retreat
Deanna is the perfect host- from beginning to (too soon) end - a lovely, super clean home with everything one needs for a relaxing vacation retreat. Lovely porches with beautiful views of the ocean. We only wished we could have stayed longer.

Great vacation
Access was awesome, we have a 2 and a 3 year old, so access to the beach was amazing, everything was great, the o ky thing was i wished the bedrooms were upstairs and living space was downstairs, waking up to beach and waves is what you want at the beach, otherwise the trip amd experience was everything we wanted

Nice needs some tweeks
The good: Very clean, location is excellent, beach is everything we expected and owner is very responsive.
The not so good: Furniture and bed are very uncomfortable. Odd layout, had a hard time getting used to the bed and bathroom on the first level. No screens on the sliding doors.
Overall great stay, one of the best beaches we have been to.

Beautiful beachfront home
The Sail is a beautiful beachfront property! The kitchen is beautifully remodeled and The View is incredible! The beach, walkway and outdoor shower were perfect. I did have trouble with the soft mattress in the main bedroom but luckily realized the other bedroom has a more firm mattress and was more comfortable for me, after switching rooms with my son. I would have loved a soft comfy chair in the living room portion of the upstairs. Thank you for a wonderful week at the beach!

One Shell of a Time
We had a great time! The property owner was so easy to get a hold of! Definitely easier than going through a realtor to rent. The house was set up great too. Having the separate ac units vs having central air was amazing! Easier for diff preferences in the rooms. We will definitely be back to rent this or even another if the property owner has more rentals.

Excellent Location for Relaxing Getaway
We loved our stay at this property! It was the perfect size for me & my husband to enjoy a week at the beach relaxing. The location is perfect -- far enough away from town to enjoy the quiet, close enough that you can still go out for dinner; and you're steps from the beach. We had a small hiccup with the A/C in the unit, but the property owner (who is wonderful) came by immediately to assess/address the issue. Would definitely stay here again.

Beachy
The house was very nice. My only complaint is the stairs. It would be nice if the sliding door to the beach walkway would lock from outside. Otherwise it was very nice.

Beautiful spot on the beach
This was our 4th visit to Topsail Island and our first stay at "The Sail". We had a wonderful stay here! Beds were very comfortable and we had everything we needed. The duplex is right on the beach and offers a beautiful view from the decks. "The Sail" will be at the top of our list when we visit Topsail Island again. Deanna was an exceptional host!
