Vacation rentals with a patio in Historic District, Wilmington

I hope other hosts I've stayed with don't see this review because Cathy was by far one of the best and most a welcoming hosts I've ever stayed with! Her place was immaculate and very homey, not to mention a perfect location only a few blocks from downtown, but just far enough to still be in a quiet neighborhood. 10/10, would stay again (and probably will!)

Everything was perfect and I truly enjoyed my time here. The house is clean, tidy, and well-equipped with everything you might need. And for One Tree Hill fans — this place is a gem! It’s within walking distance of the iconic bridge shown in the show's opening, which was such a special treat. You can also take a lovely walk to the pier, where you’ll find several charming coffee shops. Highly recommended for a peaceful and cozy stay in Wilmington!

We spent a beautiful and relaxing week at Wendy & Jeff's Seascape. The place is EXACTLY like the photos, the view from the balcony is a dream!! Waking up to the ocean sounds every morning is something we will never forget. The apartment is very well-stocked with all the items you need to enjoy the beach, clean up afterward (lots of hot water and good shower pressure!) and cook a delicious meal (plenty of kitchen gadgets). Very easy to walk around the neighborhood, up to the pier for quick eats, or less than a mile to the little mini-mart. Parking is easy. Area is safe. The pool area across the street was clean and fun too! The hosts gave excellent, clear instructions for arrival/departure and even checked in on us via the app during our stay. Thank you so much, Wendy & Jeff!

We really enjoyed our stay here! The Loft was just like the pictures—beautiful and clean! We would absolutely stay here again. It is located in a great spot we were able to take a short walk to a couple restaurants, as well as the beach. The hosts had very precise details on check in and check out, they made everything very easy for us. Highly recommend staying here!

This location was amazing. I will agree with others that it does get loud at night but that didn’t interfere with my experience. It was so nice to have a place convenient to walk my dog. We encountered an issue (outside of the host’s control) and they were swift at getting involved and getting it resolved. The communication was fantastic!

We absolutely enjoyed every minute of our long weekend stay - the location was perfect, with restaurants, shopping and beach access within steps. Very convenient and felt safe to walk around with our son, both morning and at night. The dedicated parking spots, along with generous beach day and in-unit amenities were very much appreciated. The morning and evening views from the balcony were peaceful - by far one of our favorite long weekend memories as a family. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for the perfect beach trip location with responsive, welcoming hosts. We will be booking again!

The apartment was quiet, spacious, and lovely. The bathroom was clean and we loved having a bathtub. It was so nice to have the Keurig and coffee pods. We loved the location. It was quiet and restful and just a short drive to beaches and restaurants.

Everything was great. Very clean and had everything we needed. The microwave is in a bad place. It would be better on the counter. Beds were very comfortable.

We cannot say enough good things about this place. It was squeaky clean everything you needed and felt like home. Plenty of room and very quiet. Easy to get to the Beach and easy to get to downtown. We loved this place and would recommend plan to rent for our next girls trip.

Had a very comfortable stay at this location and the host was very informative. I would recommend staying here anytime

Such a beautiful home and area! Would love to visit again.

We loved our stay at Hydrangea House! It’s clean and homey, in a safe neighborhood with beautiful surroundings, and a short drive from lots of amazing restaurants and things to do. Rachel was a kind and responsive host who gave great recommendations. Would definitely stay here again in the future!

One of the nicest Airbnbs I’ve ever stayed in. The location was perfect… close to everything but still quiet and relaxing. The space was modern, spotless, and clearly well cared for. Highly recommend and would absolutely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our time at Mary’s place. It’s tastefully decorated and well equipped. The design of the space has obviously been well thought out. One of the best AirBnB’s we’ve stayed in! The neighborhood is convenient to downtown Wilmington and the Riverwalk — a perfect location for exploring Wilmington and surrounding beaches. The historic neighborhood is definitely in transition, but we felt safe there, walking our dog and heading to the local park on foot.

Loved staying here. Was in a great location and very central to everywhere I wanted to go in Wilmington.

Joel and Lauren had a beautiful cozy place to stay. They had a great kitchen set up coffee and so on. They were very responsive and we had everything we needed. We will definitely look to stay again. Perfect for 4 people. Close to a lot to do but far enough to feel peaceful. We loved the artsy touches in the decor. Thanks again for having us!!!!

The beautiful balcony, space just as expected, responsive host, and all the essentials already there made our first family of 3 vacation with our little boy very enjoyable! We loved ordering dinner and eating on the patio to watch the sunset. The pool is clean and perfect after a day at the beach!

We had a wonderful time staying in Andrew’s place and would stay again!

Beautiful view of ICW and ocean from your own personal deck! The deck furniture got an upgrade and are two Adirondack high chairs (comfy!) but no table. Only a mile away from the downtown area of Carolina beach, perfect if you love a little bike ride to get to breakfast or dinner. About 20-30 min to downtown Wilmington. Very short walk to the beach, easy to pop back for lunch or the bathroom. Host gave excellent recommendations for local events and restaurants. Provided ample soaps, towels, and detergent. AC worked great and they had an extra fan for the bedroom with darkening blinds. Recommendations for other guests: If you plan to cook know that the kitchen has VERY BASIC kitchen tools/supplies. Beach chairs were Tommy bahama (woo!) but umbrella was broken and other guests haven’t taken good care of other supplies. Bed has a memory foam topper and I’d suggest bringing your own pillow, they have super thick or super thin.

It was the perfect place for a quick work trip! The place was cute, and the perfect size for a couple!

We enjoyed our stay. The location is fantastic. It is just 1 block off the beach with shopping, bars and a grocery store just steps away. The bridge to go into Wilmington was very close and convenient. I was so impressed with everything that was stocked for us...extensive kitchen utensils, a full coffee/tea bar, paper towels, cooler, beach chairs/towels, a bag of ice, etc. We had everything we needed. The shower was wonderful. It was very clean, and communication was great. The outdoor deck was fantastic. We spent most of our time there. I highly recommend!

Exactly as advertised. Perfect for our needs over a Memorial Day weekend. Detailed instructions provided which made things easy and boosted confidence in the transaction. Thoughtful recommendations provided by the Payton.

This was our second time staying at Laura’s place, and it was perfect for our needs once again! We traveled with our three kids and really appreciate how affordable and family-friendly the home is for a beach trip. The neighborhood is quiet, safe, and peaceful—we loved relaxing on the screened-in back patio, watching golfers go by and listening to the frogs in the evening. The kitchen was fully stocked, which made meals easy, and we enjoyed local spots like Sundial Coffee, Shuckin’ Shack, and The Crab Pot. We spent two great days at the beach and loved coming back to unwind here. No complaints at all, we highly recommend!

The location of this condo is perfect! We had the best weekend, everything is in walking distance. The beach is super close, it’s close to the boardwalk and so many restaurants. Our host was very friendly and super responsive to questions! We will definitely book again.
