So awesome!!!

Our party of 8 came down for a week to celebrate our daughter’s graduation from UNCW. This house worked out perfectly. The elevator made it easy for my 80 year old parents. Kristy was so quick with answering questions and made the house super comfortable. Quick access to the beach, great beach! Had the best time, can’t thank you enough Allison. Would not change a thing.

Great place

The property was a perfect place to celebrate family birthdays. The elevator was great for helping an older family member move easily in the house. The views were amazing, dolphins were spotted in the ocean and in the bay. Easy walk to the water and the kitchen had everything we needed. Our host was readily available and even extended early check in and late check out without being asked. We would use the property again

Great Spot!

Great house, great location, walking distance to the beach- well equipped kitchen, comfy beds and a ton of space for a family & friends. The layout of the house was perfect & pet friendly 😊 Unfortunately, The weather was not the best so we spent a lot of time hanging out watching the Olympics and tropical storm Debby roll through. The communication with the owner was great. I highly recommend this property and would definitely stay again! Thanks again!!

Is it bad that I don’t want to rave about this place to much in fear of it being booked all summer & us not being able to return every year? No, but really! This place was amazing! Beautiful home & very well stocked kitchen. We felt very much at home. The location was perfect and a very short walk from the beach. Communication with the host was easy & smooth & very responsive. We will definitely be returning :)

Amazing layout

This location was perfect for our family. My family of 5 was staying here with my in-laws. We loved that we had the bottom floor to ourselves and that there was an entire floor of living space in between, so we never needed to worry about our three toddlers waking up their grandparents on the top floor. The rooms were all good size. Lots of living space to hang out and relax in. Tons of decks. Quick easy walk to the beach. Everything you could need in the kitchen. Overall a great place to stay!

Good Better Beach

We really enjoyed our stay at Good Better Beach. The place was very clean and just as shown in the photos. Beach access was right across the street. It took us maybe 10 minutes to get to the pier, so we really enjoyed the location. The house was VERY well stocked with dishes/ pots/ pans so we really loved that. The top floor had stunning views, and so did the main floor. Christy was extremely responsive and was available if I needed anything, which we did not need anything so that was a plus. I will definitely consider staying here again when traveling to topsail and need a place for a group.

Amazing getaway

Our group of 9 (4 adults and 5 children) had a fantastic time at Good Better Beach. This property was exactly as listed and what we needed. One surprise was the twin roll away bed which was perfect for one of our littles to have her own space to sleep. The views were beautiful, especially the sun set over the sound. Christy was great to work with, answering all questions in a timely manner. The kitchen was stocked with all utensils and supplies for us to make meals right at the home. The kids spent most of the evenings and early mornings playing the board games that were provided. We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed every minute!

Great beach house!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Good Better Beach. There were 6 adults, 2 teens and 1 toddler in our group and everyone had plenty of room. The kitchen is well stocked and the beach is a short 2-3 minute walk across the street. The house was mostly clean, aside from dust/pet hair under furniture and in corners but is to be expected with a pet friendly rental. Our only dislike was the lack of window treatments in the kitchen and upstairs master suite. The morning sun comes right through the kitchen window and warms the kitchen up quickly in the mornings, especially while cooking breakfast. The ocean/sound views were amazing. We had the best sunsets all week. Christy is extremely responsive and helpful, which made our week even better. We will be back!

Perfect Getaway

Our family has been renting good better beach for 4 years now and we absolutely love it. It’s the perfect location with a beautiful view. We spend most of our time out on the porch where you can see the ocean and sound with a constant breeze. The beach is an easy walk. Everything is always clean and Christy is always super helpful. This rental has become a yearly tradition for our family.

Excellent!!

Everything at the house was wonderful! It was clean, well stocked/labeled cabinets etc making it easy for us to settle in. We had a work retreat with 4 folks staying at the house and another 5 joining for meetings. Everyone was so impressed with the space, N Topsail, and the comfort of the common room. Unfortunately we were under flood conditions the whole time but a huge plus: the parking pad below the house stayed clear of standing water (unlike many neighbors) so even in torrential downpour, the house stood strong and dry.Key thing to know: linens and basic toiletries are not provided so be sure to bring your own or rent/buy when you arrive.

Lovely beach access!

Our family of 6 and two friends enjoyed this comfortable, calming home. Beautifully decorated and the communication was fine. Comfy beds and pillows! Nicely equipped kitchen. Seemed to be well kept up - although while there one remote and one door lock failed; guessing it is a battery problem? Access to main deck was difficult due to rusted sliding channel. A couple of chairs need to be tightened…Overall, nothing we couldn’t work around. The only other frustration was the electricity was turned off for two hours midday while a pole was replaced outside. I will note that it is probably far easier to rent linens rather than bring sheets and towels for eight!! Wish I had opted for that. replaced outside.
