This is the second time we have stayed here! It is perfect for our family of four. Great view, walk to the beach, and nice pool. The apartment is clean and well furnished. Check in and check out is a breeze!I would say several things about the actually condo to keep in mind:The kitchen is not super well stocked, there are four drink pitchers, but no containers to store leftovers. The air conditioner unit works great! But it is very loud when it turns on.Other than linens, there are absolutely NO extras. No games or books, (which are key if it rains) not even salt and pepper or coffee, which in my experience is fairly standard for even hotel rooms. Please plan accordingly. North Top Sail Beach is beautiful and very family friendly. There aren't a ton of "distractions" (i.e. non beach activities) which is perfect for us, but if you need to get away from the beach for a day, please so some research. The Pier Restaurant is only a couple miles up from this location and has great food!
