A Great Time at The Coconut

We had a wonderful winter getaway at The Coconut. The house was very clean and very well supplied. The owners thought of everything. The main living area was extra spacious, and the bedrooms large and comfortable. The view of the ocean was fantastic and the beach was quiet. The owners responded quickly to any questions that we had. We hope to return.

Amazing home with spectacular views

The home is beautiful. Split bedroom plan with two bedrooms and two full bathrooms in the first level. Kitchen, dining, and living room on the second level, and the third bedroom and bathroom on the 3rd level. The ocean gets so close that you could touch it.

Fantastic views and beach access

What wonderful place to stay! The access to the beach was phenomenal, you are literally on the beach! This made getting everything set up each day for our family super easy. The house had all the amenities we needed and was in a very safe, quiet area for peaceful evenings. I would definitely come back again!

Summer beach fun

Our stay at the coconut was fantastic. The house was very comfortable and well appointed, and the beach was perfect. My wife and I especially enjoyed the third-floor balcony which offered unobstructed views up and down the beach. The house is only a short drive to many restaurants and amenities but is far enough from the main town that the beach didn't feel crowded even with a public access 50 yards away. The only "warning" (and I use that term lightly) I would offer any potential renters is that the primary access to the beach from the house is through one of the bedrooms on the first floor. While this wasn't an issue for us, it could be for a group that may not be comfortable with that arrangement.

Won’t be the last time!

We love the Coconut! Great aesthetic and vibe. Location was fantastic- we loved not having neighbors to our left. Pros- location- literal steps to the beach; convenient to grocery stores, bars, restaurants. Next to empty lot Very clean Comfortable beds and pillows (lots of pillows;)) Good AC- even the third floor stays cool with the ceiling fan Linens and towels provided Hosts were very responsive The top deck is AMAZING Lots of hangars in the closet and… TWO PLUSH ROBES in 3rd floor bedroom Cons - kitchen is well stocked with utensils and dishes but could use updated pots and pans with lids that fit. Ice machine a bit slow (would recommend having a backup bag or two of ice) Dishwasher is loud and takes quite a while to cycle so we just ran it at night. Would be great to have a grill! Also, not really a con because it can’t be fixed, but just be aware that the only beach access is through a bedroom. Hardly an issue for us but it is good to know before going. We have been vacationing at Topsail since 1989 and this is one of the best places we’ve stayed. We are definitely planning to rent this home again!!

Feet from the beach

The rental was very roomy, with each bedroom having their own bathroom. The home was beautifully decorated and the kitchen well stocked. We loved the three levels of balcony’s facing the beach. We’ve rented many homes at the beach, but not one that was literally feet from the beach. Off the back deck, you walk down the steps and you are on the beach. We enjoyed cooking in each day, walking the beach, and hanging out on the back deck. We definitely will rent this place again.

Perfect Mother’s Day getaway

This is our second time staying and the oceanfront panoramic view is spectacular. Even though we did get rain it was still a peaceful stay with card playing and catching up. We enjoyed lobster from lobstah shack nearby and everything was at cottage that made our stay perfect. Paper towels, toilet paper even shampoo. We cooked and there are plenty of pots and pans. Beds were comfortable and sheets/bedding great quality.

Topsail Staycation

We had an absolutely AMAZING stay! We are locals to the are and had some out of town friends come down for a surprise birthday trip! Bill and Amy were incredible hosts & even let us check in early! Their place was absolutely incredible. We loved hearing the waves crash every morning and seeing dolphins from the balcony. We had a wonderful time walking the beach and playing spike ball & enjoying our time there with friends!

About the host

Hosted by Bill and Amy Crawley

Host profile image
We are Bill and Amy Crawley! We are the new owners of "The Coconut" and we are so excited to share it with you our guests. Both Bill and I are entrepreneurs, Bill owns a company that does car detailing products and I own a furniture boutique that is a full service interior design firm. We have four beautiful children ranging from 12 up to 34 years old. We joke that we had our kids a decade a part. ;) We currently live in Utah, which is quite the jaunt from NC.

Why they chose this property

When looking for an investment property we never imagined Topsail. We had sold our dream home in St. George, Utah which is south from Salt Lake City (think red rocks and arches). The time was right and we couldn't pass up the opportunity... So the adventure began to try to find another property. We had looked all over the country when my sister in law suggested Pinehurst. We are not golfers by any stretch, mind you we have tried our best Lol!... however, we do enjoy the beach and have always longed to have a beach front property, so low and behold her realtor that she was working with in Pinehurst happened to have a condo in Topsail. So we began looking at multiple beach houses on the whole island which brought us to the where we are now. We fell in love so much with Topsail and "The Coconut" that we have decide to expand and build another investment property in the same area. Call us crazy but we are in love!! You will have to follow along with us on our journey of building our new place. Hopefully, we will start this fall. We will keep you posted. In the meantime, we hope you enjoy "The Coconut" as much as we do.
