Catching Sunsets on the Cape Fear River w/ Parking

CatherineRating, 5 stars6 days ago
We visited Wilmington for a concert at Live Oak Bank Pavilion. We enjoyed the restaurants and shops close by. Loved the view. Slept comfortably in the king bed. We would definitely stay here again. Oh, and the host is very responsive and helpful.

Jimmy’s place

JamesRating, 5 stars6 days ago
We had such a wonderful time at Mary Margaret's place! Being steps from the beach was incredibly convenient, making it so easy to enjoy the sun and sand whenever we wanted. We also really appreciated having a cool bar with great drink specials and live music just around the corner. The apartment itself has such a lovely bohemian beach feel, it's really well designed and so comfortable. We're definitely hoping to come back soon!

Downtown Riverfront 2 BR large deck free parking

GeriRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Kathleen's place was perfect for 4 of us who came to Wilmington for the weekend. She responded to all of our needs. The flat is located in the heart of the vibrant and trendy downtown Wilmington, even right above a bar. Kathleen anticipated our needs by providing ear plugs and eye masks, to assure we could sleep in each morning.

We had such an amazing time at River Retreat! Felt very safe and comfortable right at home truly. It unfortunately was raining so bad one of the days but that didn’t stop us we still had a great time, make sure you enjoy that sunset on the balcony or catch the sunrise, it’s worth it! :)

OceanFront 3Bedroom/2.5Bathroom Dog Friendly home!

KarenRating, 5 stars1 month ago
What a delightful experience! The house was as advertised and more. Kate provided many thoughtful touches (easy entertainment navigating, extra kitchen and food treats, fully stocked kitchen and cooking aids, games, beach supplies), which were wonderful surprises. She operates a pet friendly house, with pet supplies too. The location is marvelous, and the Surf City beaches are wonderful. She truly is a five star hostess, and this lovely home is perfect for a family/pet holiday.

Little House On The Beach

TylerRating, 5 stars2 days ago
The beachfront location was amazing. We really enjoyed spending most of our time on the beach and the deck. The house is small, but if you intend to spend most of your time outside, it's perfect. The house shows it's age in a few areas, but this didn't affect our stay. The A/C kept it nice and cool during some hot humid days. The deck was perfect for morning coffee, watching a storm roll in, hanging out in the evenings, and most importantly private beach access! Most of the surf city shops and restaurants were only a 5 minute drive away. Overall, this was a great spot for a relaxing stay at the beach. We would book it again.

Beach Front Home-with hot tub! All linens provided

HaleyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
My family and I had a great three night stay. We’ve always wanted to stay right on the ocean and it was so worth it. The house is spacious but still cozy. We travelled with our 8 month old and used the high chair and baby gate. We loved watching the sun come up over the ocean each morning. Emily was communicative and friendly. Would definitely return!

Oak Island beach House #1

EliRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Our stay was wonderful and the location can’t be beat. Sabine was friendly and proactive every step of the way. We loved being right on the water and the section of the beach wasn’t too crowded even on Memorial Day Weekend. Would highly recommend staying here. Sabine is a great host!

Hot tub, Beach Front, Private, Walk to Restaurants

LisaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Loved the location. I wasn't sure about everyone in our group liking being so close to the "hubbub", but that ended up being what something we really liked about the place. Lots of things to do that are walkable. Shops, restaurants, bars, coffee houses, a beautiful walkway along the intracoastal waterway, a kids playground... And the view can't be beat! Well stocked kitchen- like truly everything you could possibly need. Lots of seating on the deck. All the things! Mom was over the moon about her 90th birthday celebration.

Eagle Point on the Bay

HaniRating, 5 stars7 months ago
The place was perfect in every aspect: The location, size, accommodations, amenities, and proximity to the areas we frequented. For our tennis group, the total cost was less than what a hotel would have cost, which is historically where we used to stay. This experience, summarized by our ability to share one place, travel together, have meals together, watch TV together, and have the large space to spread out was absolutely fantastic. The experience was positive any which way you look at it. On top of that, Jana (and her husband) were super hosts with super friendly communication. We wish we had the opportunity to meet them in person, but..............maybe this time next year :-).

My husband and I came down for a quick couple days get away, and it was a perfect place to stay! Convenient to everything, steps from the beach, and very private and quiet. We enjoyed taking a dip in the pool after spending a couple hours on the beach! We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Beach vacation condo at Ft Fisher! Riggings

Another great summer vacation in the books! Chad is THE BEST host and his place is the best one on the beach!! We are repeat guests & highly recommend this condo. I've rented a lot of AirBNB all around the country & this one ranks as one of the top on the list. Chad goes above & beyond. I wish he would buy & rent out some more places!!!

Beautiful Cape Fear Riverfront Condo Wilmington NC

TomRating, 5 stars6 days ago
The condo was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The parking was very convenient. Everything for us was within walking distance so it was nice to just park the car and forget about it. Being right on the Riverwalk was great. If you want to see Wilmington NC I highly recommend this condo and host.

La Vista - oceanfront condominium

SabrinaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We were here for my birthday! The owners were incredible! Very kind and gave us great options for restaurants and also a firework display. The condo was perfect. Amazing views. The kitchen had everything you need and everything worked well. The master bedroom had a great master bath with all amenities. But let me tell you about the master bedroom bed. The most comfortable bed ever!! If you have a rain day and have to stay indoors this is the place to stay. Don't forget to play some song on the guitar. When we come back we will definitely plan our trip to stay here. I cannot thank the owners enough for there hospitality!!

WyattRating, 5 stars1 week ago
I had an awesome stay at Christy’s place in Carolina Beach! The location was perfect—just a short walk to the beach and close to great restaurants. The place was super clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. Christy was a fantastic host—very friendly, responsive, and made everything easy. You can tell she really cares about her guests. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
