Here is a Complete and Full Description of my Condo including all of the information you should know:
My condo, Sea4Urself, is ready to be your home away from home for your beach vacation. The condo was completely renovated from top to bottom when I purchased it in June, 2021, and has just been updated in May, 2025. It is in building #2 in the Surf Condos. You have an unobstructed view of the ocean, sand dunes, and pool from the condo!
I am Rob, your host. I encourage you to read the over 120 reviews that I have earned. The reviews will tell you everything that you need to know about my condo and the hosting services that I provide to my guests. I am proud to report that my condo is rated 10/10 in all 6 Vrbo rating categories! I strive to give all of my guests a hassle free / stress free wonderful vacation. I am a certified international tour manager and full time year round Topsail Beach resident. Living right down the road from the condo makes it easy for me to provide amazing service to my guests. I have travelled through all 50 U.S. states and 58 different countries. I know what beach vacationers want and need and how to provide it to my guests! Every visitor who stays at my condo receives warm and welcoming hospitality before, during and after their vacation. I truly care that my guests have a wonderful experience when they choose my condo for their vacation.
The condo has 1 bedroom. It has a King sized bed, TV, dressers, nightstands, and a blackout shade. There are twin sized bunk beds in the hallway. Additionally there is a queen sized pullout sofa in the living room. At maximum capacity you can fit 2 in the bedroom, 2 in the bunk beds, and 2 on the pull out sofa. That's why Vrbo lists that a 1 bedroom condo sleeps 6. You can see the ocean, dunes and pool unobstructed from your private balcony and from the living room. Sea4Urself was remodeled top to bottom in June 2021 and now updated again in May 2025 with high end everything. The kitchen has all of the equipment and gadgets that you need. The TV's are large. The couches and recliner comfortable. The wall decorations and pictures are relaxing and inviting. The private deck has high quality chairs and a table where you can see out to the dunes and ocean unobstructed. A great place to enjoy your morning coffee and afternoon happy hour!
The condo has an upscale vibe and a beachy feel to it. It is not a luxury property, and is not being advertised as such. Sea4Urself is a super comfortable, professionally and properly cleaned, totally stocked, full kitchen condo with an ocean view. The condo is less than a 1 minute walk to both the beach ramp and the olympic sized pool. So easy & convenient. It has everything you need. I make sure that the condo is fully stocked with all of the essentials including toilet paper, paper towels, sponges, dish soap, and much more. It was remodeled and is updated with all high quality amenities. Going back and forth from the condo to the beach or pool during your days could not be easier! The condo comes with a private reserved covered parking space that fits 2 vehicles right under the condo!
The condo also comes with a private equipment shed. In the shed there are brand new high quality beach chairs, both in high and low style, for relaxing on the beach in comfort. In the shed you will also find a full sized shibumi shade, brand new boogie boards, a beach umbrella, pails, shovels, pool noodles, a raft, and more. There is no need to bring your beach equipment from home. Everything you need to enjoy the beach and pool is right here waiting for you!
The Surf Condos are located 1 mile north of the Surf City bridge on the ocean side of the street. The town of Surf City is between the condo and the bridge, giving you easy access to everything you need. It is very easy to get to and use the restaurants and shops in Surf City. It is less than a 5 minute drive to anywhere. Walking along the beach is safe and easy both during the daytime and at night. Walking the beach to town is a great way to spend time and get in some non-water exercise.
Topsail Island is a 26 mile long coastal barrier island that is very narrow between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intercoastal Waterway. The island has no traffic lights, high rises, or national chains. We are a simple, laid-back, easy place to be. Those seeking nightlife, glitz and glamour should look elsewhere. Those who enjoy a beautiful beach in a natural setting that feels the same as it has for decades will be ecstatic with their choice.
If you are looking for a very comfortable, clean, well maintained updated condo with a full kitchen and private deck with an ocean view in a perfect location to enjoy a hassle free beach vacation less than a 1 minute walk to the beach ramp and pool then you have found exactly what you are searching for! I am an owner who truly cares about his guests having a wonderful experience. I am a full time year long Topsail Beach resident. I live right down the road from the condo available to you with prompt and excellent communication and service should anything be needed before, during or after your stay.
Rental Rules:
No Smoking Inside the Condo - Smoking is permitted on the deck. No Parties No Pets Renters must comply with all Surf Condo rules.
*Some Other Information that's important to know: Please be sure to read this including the linen and towel policy that is standard on Topsail Island*:
- This is referred to as a "First Floor Unit". Due to the fragile environment of being on a barrier island and the real threats of hurricanes and tropical storms, it is against the law to live on the ground floor anywhere on Topsail Island. It is 14 steps to get into the condo. There is no elevator or ramp available. You must use the stairs. - No grills are allowed on the decks at the Surf Condos. There is a grilling area with charcoal grills available for you to use anytime. - There is a washer / dryer room in the complex, but there is no washer or dryer inside the unit. - The grilling area and laundry room are a 1 minute drive or 5 minute walk from the condo. - *Linens and Towels are not included in your rental. You either have to bring your own linens and towels or I am happy to set up a rental for your stay. I get and pass along my full time locals discount. This is due to the history of Topsail Island rentals being available to rent weekly from Saturday to Saturday only. The majority of houses and condos are still rented in this manner. Due to this, the entire Island gets turned around on Saturdays between 10:00 A.M. and 4:00 P.M. The cleaners who work on the island come into the condo and clean it for you. They do a fantastic job. There is simply not enough time to make beds and do laundry services. That's how this long standing policy of bring your own or rent linens and towels came into effect. The cost of renting linens & bath and beach towels, which includes delivery to and pick up from the condo door is $38 for 1 person, $45 for 2, $75 for 3, $100 for 4, $135 for 5, and $145 for 6 people. - The Condo is perfect for a couple and very comfortable for a family of 4. With the pull out sofa it sleeps 6. - Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions. It is my pleasure to assist you with your beach vacation to Topsail Island, and I look forward to hosting you!

My daughter and I decided to take a brief trip to the beach while she was visiting, and this place was just what we needed: close to the beach, nice outdoor space, ocean views, walkable to coffee shops, etc. The king bed was comfortable and the bathroom set up worked for two adult women sharing space. The host was very helpful, and the place even had beach gear available for our use. Would stay again.

Comfortable stay in terrific location
This property, and this unit in particular, was very convenient to the beach which was the main draw of our trip. The unit was very comfortable and had all the amenities we like in our rentals, specifically the knives and cookware. The grounds were very nice and the boardwalk over the dunes were just outside the unit. The pool was very nice and the general etiquette of the pool goers was refreshingly polite. We prepacked our food and drink so we didn’t venture out to restaurants or groceries so I can’t comment on those services but we were able to decompress which was the main goal. Rob was one of the most polite and attentive hosts we’ve ever encountered and we felt like VIPs throughout. He’ll provide tips and suggestions prior to your arrival and be at the ready to personally meet if needed while there. We look forward to returning in the future as much for the unit as for the host.

Great family beach vacation spot
We enjoyed our stay in Rob's condo!The location was perfect. You can walk straight onto the beach, and there is a shower and hose on the boardwalk to rinse off the sand. The pool in the community is nice and has a generous shallow end that our preschoolers enjoyed. Parking was very convenient right under the unit.The condo was comfortable, nicely decorated, and fully stocked. The kids loved the bunk beds! Rob was a very generous host and very easy to communicate with.We would love to stay again on our next visit to Topsail!

Perfect 3-day, end-of-school getaway for our grandchildren. Beach and pool are close and there is a walkway to both so no long walks over huge dunes etc. Grounds are well-manicured and pretty. The owner is awesome and the condo was extremely clean. Having beach chairs, shades etc was SO helpful. You will have a great time here. We will be back.
