Heart of the Action Studio in Downtown Wilmington!
Audrey’s stay was the perfect location to explore downtown Wilmington! Having the parking garage right across the street was ideal for our rental car as well. We would definitely stay here again when visiting Wilmington in the future!

Hawks Nest 7 @ UNCW
You’ll like everything about this nicely appointed, clean & modern 1BR apartment right at the heart of the UNCW campus! You even have your own laundry in unit, a desk and 2 TV’s to stream most anything you could want to. It was perfect for me. Travis is a good host and makes everything super simple, which is welcoming to see!

Studio on Market & Front Downtown ILM
We really enjoyed our stay as we were looking for a place that was central to all of the activity and shopping, and boy did this fit the bill. Very clean and comfortable and our host Summer was incredibly responsive. We drove into the historic district, parked within 200 feet from the apartment with the pass provided, and did not have to drive again until we checked out to leave. This place is right in the sweet spot for everything going on there including all the dining and shopping.

So peaceful but right by the beach and Boardwalk!
Overall, this was a great experience. She had clear instructions and was very responsive. The place was a short walk from the beach and it was cute and cozy!

Catching Sunsets on the Cape Fear River w/ Parking
Staying at this beautiful Airbnb overlooking the Cape Fear River was delightful! From the moment we booked, the communication was flawless—responsive, friendly, and the guidebook was incredibly helpful. Every question we may have had was answered. The host went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcome and prepared for our trip. What really sets this stay apart is the impeccable attention to detail. From the cozy, well-appointed decor to the thoughtful touches everything was clearly chosen with care and intention. You can tell the host genuinely wants guests to have the best possible experience. This Airbnb is the perfect balance of luxury, comfort, and convenience. We’re already planning our next visit.

Modern Oceanview Condo on Carolina Beach
Donna's style and attention to detail make this place a showstopper. It was beautifully decorated and spotless. The communication was prompt, and we were so grateful. Unfortunately, my husband had booked a different place that looked like a good place for college kids to stay, and it was uncomfortable. We moved out and were fortunate that Donna's place was available. The bed was very comfortable. The kitchen is immaculate. The dishes, pans, etc are all like new. We felt right at home. There was an outside closet downstairs with coolers, beach toys, and chairs to borrow. We highly recommend this Airbnb!

Sol + Sage Studio | Downtown
This stay was perfect!!! It was exactly as advertised and in such a great location.

MoonLight at the Water Street Retreats
Rachel was an amazing host—her communication was clear, quick, and super helpful. The place itself was fantastic—clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Would definitely stay again!

La Ola by Casa Del Sol.
We had a wonderful stay! The place looks exactly like the pics. Nice comfortable beds with great quality linens. Plenty of hot water for the four of us. We didn’t cook, but plenty of kitchen ware if you want to. They even had beach chairs and an umbrella and beach towels. Others have commented on noise. I’m a light sleeper and was never bothered. Beach is very short walk. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

The Weekender
John was very helpful with any questions or requests we had. He made it very easy to get in touch with and was always responsive. The location was great-everything we wanted to do was within a 10-15 minute drive. My friend and I were able to feel very at home. Look forward to staying there again when we visit Wilmington again in the further!

"Beacon" - Room 9
This was the perfect romantic getaway for my wife’s birthday! We enjoyed everything about this beautiful, quaint location.

The Birdhouse Studio Apt - Downtown Wilmington
This was the best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in! It was absolutely stunning, extremely private, very accessible, and within a short walk to the amenities of downtown Wilmington. The area is extremely safe, beautiful to walk, and overall a great location! The house itself comes equipped with just about anything you need and truly feels like a home away from home. My husband and I could not recommend this place enough! The owner is also extremely responsive and so kind to talk to.

Water Street Hideaway
My wife and I absolutely loved our stay at Kristin's place. The location couldn’t have been better, just minutes away from museums, breweries, restaurants, shops, and a beautiful riverfront walkway. We spent most of our time exploring the area, but whenever we were in the condo, it felt like home. I usually struggle to sleep while traveling because most beds don’t compare to ours, but that wasn’t an issue here. The bed was incredibly comfortable. We truly can’t recommend this place enough and will definitely stay here again the next time we're in the area. If you're looking for a clean, quiet, and conveniently located spot at a great value, this is the place for you.

Sweet Retreat @20 West
Libby was a wonderful host and this spotless apartment was nicely decorated and in an unbeatable location, just one block to the beach. She and her husband live upstairs so were accessible for any questions and were super generous to offer all of their beach equipment. She was super responsive leading up to the trip. Highly recommend.

Dolphins Delight Oceanfront Condo
My partner and I booked this place for our 1 yr anniversary and Debi and Peter were such rockstar hosts. We had zero issues locating or entering the space and the space was spotless. Beach front view was unbelievably amazing and we couldn’t believe how lovely it was to hear waves crashing 24/7. It’s was so kind of them to have items such as beach chairs and umbrellas for the beach. Very thoughtful. Overall a 5 star experience and we’ll be back.

Cozy Downtown Condo!
Perfect downtown Wilmington location! Spacious studio apartment with a very comfortable bed. Andrew could not have been more communicative and responsive as a host. Great stay!

Elegant 2bd/2ba in Historic Downtown w/Parking
We really enjoyed our stay in downtown Wilmington. Tamara & Bobby’s place was beautiful and felt like home. We will definitely stay there again.

The Sandbox - 1 minute walk to beach!
Great spot for a quick beach trip. Easy to get to the property and even easier to get to the beach. Bars and restaurants are nearby but far enough away so you don’t hear them at night.

Wrightsville Beach Bungalow Steps From The Beach
The place was exactly as described, clean, walk distance to the beach. The host was very responsive and helpful. Definitely great place!

Jimmy’s place
It is exactly as pictured! Its steps away from the beach. Mary Margaret was very responsive and so nice!

CB's Salty Retreat
I stayed here for 4 nights with my two daughters. I work in people's homes everyday of my life and am super funny about cleanliness. I saw nothing as far as hair, dust, or sand anywhere upon arrival which was huge for me. There was a very minor parking issue but it was handled within 5 minutes. Great communication.

Completely remodeled condo!
We came to visit from Ohio to go to a family wedding and our stay was absolutely amazing! It was so perfect for our family that I want to book a fall trip and stay there again! Julian was terrific, they even came to personally deliver us a package out of the mailbox that UPS put in there by mistake! So nice of them to go above and beyond! They sent us the access code early and made sure we were there safe, had all of the WiFi info and that we didn’t have any questions s or need any help with anything! Truly great hosts! Not to mention, the place was just remodeled and is beautifully done! We really enjoyed are time there, so much so we booked an extra day which was approved right away and so easy to do! I couldn’t recommend this stay any more and we will be visiting again very soon!

Downtown Riverfront 2 BR large deck free parking
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.

Vida Stoke 1 - Coastal Chic only 0.1miles to Beach
West place was great! We loved the private balcony amenities and how close it was to Kure beach and downtown! So much to do and such a fun stay. It was the perfect cozy beach getaway!
