Bombastic Home ~Steps to Beach~Hot Tub!

FALL BOOKING SPECIAL! Immerse yourself in the lore and legend of Blackbeard and the rich maritime history of Surf City, NC, the heart of Topsail Island. This luxurious, 6br/3ba, 3-story beach home is an experience to be treasured; a contemporary reimagining of a lair from the golden age of piracy. There are pirate-themed bedrooms where scallywags can dream of shipwrecks and sunken treasures glittering in the deep, dark sea…

The open-design living/dining area features elegant, Victorian Rococo style furnishings, sofas, and armchairs upholstered in royal purple and burgundy hues of velvet. Coffee tables are fashioned from antique treasure chests, wall art and nautical artifacts imbue a sense of wonder and mystery. Prepare a pirate feast after a day at the beach!

This bright, airy, contemporary home has a stylish chef’s kitchen, luxury appliances, high ceilings, sleek modern ceiling fans, hardwood floors, and soothing white walls. It’s the vibrant decor that sets the pirate scene! This enchanting-themed beach home is perfect for families, large groups, multi-family vacations, reunions, corporate retreats, etc.

Living:
The bright, coastal-style, open design of this living/kitchen/dining area with high ceilings, gives the home an inviting ambiance and makes for easy entertaining.
Envision gathering here for family game nights, cozying up on this velvet sofa to read Treasure Island as a bedtime story to the kids, or stream Pirates of the Caribbean. The SmartTV is mounted across the room on a rustic, shiplap accent wall, which adds texture and character to the home, resembling the hull of a wooden galleon. French doors from the living/dining room lead out to the deck and dazzling coastal views.
Off this main floor is a business office with a work desk and desk chairs.

Kitchen/Dining:
The fully-equipped chef’s kitchen has crisp white cabinets, quartz countertops, and state-of-the-art stainless steel appliances including a French door fridge/freezer with icemaker, a gas cooktop, oven, a microwave, a French Farmhouse style sink, and a dishwasher. A Keurig and drip coffee maker are both provided, as well as a blender, toaster, and chef’s caliber sharp cutlery. A polished copper pendant lamp and copper cookware add maritime charm to the kitchen. Between the kitchen and dining area is an extraordinary, rustic, built-in, floor-to-ceiling wine rack, where you can store your rum, grog, and bottled beverages.
The elegant, Rococo-style dining table is a vintage piece with Hollywood history. The table, purchased at auction, was used in the original movie "The Road to Wellville" starring Anthony Hopkins, Matthew Broderick, Bridgett Fonda, Dana Carvey, and John Cusack!
If the weather is nice, you may also choose to dine al fresco, on either the balcony or covered deck.

Bedrooms & Baths:
Seas the Day offers six bedrooms and three full baths. There are 2 king bedrooms, 3 queen bedrooms, and 1 room with 3 twin beds, for a total of 8 beds and 13 guests allowed.
Every bedroom has a unique pirate theme, as well as silent ceiling fans and SmartTVs. Each bed offers a luxury mattress and premium linens for a restful night’s sleep. Sliding glass doors from four of the six bedrooms open out to the tranquil balcony/covered deck with dazzling views of the Atlantic.
The sparkling clean, spa-like bathrooms feature granite countertops, brushed copper fixtures, large, well-lit mirrors, sleek, white-tiled walk-in showers, and dreamy oversized jacuzzi soaking tubs. Bathrooms are stocked with bath towel sets, as well as toiletries and hair dryers.
There is also a laundry room with a washer and dryer, as well as an iron & ironing board.

Game Room & Outdoor Amenities:
Outdoor amenities are a highlight of this pirate lair! Relax on a chaise lounge chair on the second-floor deck or third-floor balcony of “Seas the Day.” The salty breeze is scented with honeysuckle, wisteria, and Carolina jessamine. Fresh air and sounds of the surf will lower your blood pressure, make you glad to be alive, and help you to readjust your internal clock to “island time”!
Gaze out over an iconic seaside town, pristine beaches, and shimmering blue Atlantic ocean.
Beautiful sandy beaches are just a three-minute stroll. This property is situated in the third row of homes set back from the beach. Give your family the carefree, seaside vacation from your own childhood memories. Surf City has been a prized destination for generations of vacationers. This is a safe, bicycle and pedestrian-friendly area for the family to explore.

This three-story beach home has covered deck areas, as well as open-air alfresco dining options, off both the main kitchen/living/dining space on the second floor and bedrooms on the third floor.
The ground/first-floor level features a driveway with covered parking, a game room, a courtyard area with a hot tub, and a covered dining area with a patio table. The hot tub is such a peaceful place to unwind and stargaze at night! Enjoy midnight snacks or cocktails at the patio table beside the hot tub.

The game room has foosball, a small game table made from a rustic whiskey barrel, a large wooden pedestal game table for cards or puzzles, and a seating area with royal-purple velvet sofas. There’s an additional full-size fridge in the game room, where you can store your pirate grog! You’ll find plenty of beach chairs, kid gear, and games in the game room. There’s also a pack & play, high chair, booster seat, and some pet-friendly linens.
The living space offers an open-concept design with a large, fully equipped kitchen ready for you to prepare & enjoy any meal you can dream of. With ample counter space, a fridge, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, toaster, blender, drip coffee pot, tea kettle, & all cookware, bakeware, & utensils, cooking for a crowd is an easy task.

Family Reunion
I've rented plenty of places and the thing I appreciate most is prompt, clear communication with the owner. Vivian was super prompt and would ask at the end if there was anything else we needed. 12 cousins from around the nation for a great stay at the beach. A block from beach, near restaurants & retail and other attractions. Plenty of bedrooms and a dining room table that can seat 14! We definitely needed the double oven when cooking for this bunch of bombastic relatives. Game room had lots of games for those periods of rain. When it was sunny, beach chairs in a wagon were put to good use. Rent here - you'll have a blast!

Fantastic family beach vacation home!
Jamie & Vivian's Surf City home was perfect for my kids and grand kids 2024 beach vacation. We have a tradition to travel to Topsail Island, as this is the place my parents brought our family when I was a kid! The home was perfect for our clan of 6 adults, 3 kids and doggos. Jamie & Vivian provided excellent communication from start to finish and the home had everything we needed. The location is perfect and just a very short walk to the beach. Thank you both for being excellent hosts and for providing us a safe, relaxing home for a memorable beach trip for our family!

Family Time
We really enjoyed our time at your home. It literally was steps away from the beach which was perfect for us. We enjoyed the amount of outdoor seating areas that were available. There was at least one outdoor area on each level. The views are amazing. I will be recommending this location to others.

Great Friendsgiving in a perfect location at Surf City
The location of this house can't be beat - 1 min walk to beach and close to pier, restaurants and shops. There were two families with kids ages 7, 12 and 16. There was plenty of space for everyone and the house was well stocked. We even cooked Thanksgiving dinner there. The hot tub was so nice to come back to everyday. Our friends brought there two fur babies and the fenced in yard was perfect for them to run around in. Communication was perfect and they even had someone come out to clean the hot tub during a holiday week.

50th birthday Beach trip !
I would definitely rate 5 stars and above. This home was absolutely beautiful, each balcony has a different amazing view .You have views of the ocean and views of the waterways . You are literally steps away from the ocean .Google view does not show you how very close you are to walking on the sand . Which made that so wonderful because we had our granddaughter with us. They provide a beach wagon that our granddaughter loved going to the beach in . We had everything we needed and more . When not at the beach or out at one of the amazing restaurants that are actually in walking distance (if you feel like a short stroll) we were relaxing in the hot tub in the backyard. This house was pirate themed ,so it made it so much more fun for my husband's 50th birthday! Definitely recommend for a fun and relaxing beach stay .There was plenty of room for our kids and granddaughter. 10 out 10 recommend this home !!!

SHORT NOTICE VISIT WITH MY SON BEFORE HIS DEPLOYMENT
Vivian and Jamie were very accommodating. They worked with me to get the desired days I requested. They accepted my request for a early check in, which was great because everyone went to the beach while me and my hubby slept. We drove from South Florida to the property. It’s a short walk to beach. They had beach chairs and beach towels available for use. The rooms were decorated nice and had a lot of space. The pirate theme was very unique. It gave the whole experience a special feel. The dinning room table was big and long, our whole family was able to eat together with plenty of elbow room. There were plenty of balconies to chill on. The patio furniture was very comfortable. We sat out there and relaxed watching the sunset. The beds were nice and firm. It was easy to fall asleep comfortably in them. The master bedroom has a jetted tub. If that’s not amazing there’s a hot tub. The hot tub has Bluetooth so you can sync your music and relax. Thank you so much Vivian and Jamie for sharing your beautiful home with my family.
