Close to the beach and attractions! Perfect for families or traveling nurses!, hotel in Wilmington

Close to the beach and attractions! Perfect for families or traveling nurses!

I love the house and the location. It was very clean, and the host was kind and helpful. The game room was a nice addition. My son and I enjoyed playing mini pool. The backyard was surprisingly huge and fenced in, so I trusted my son to play back there. It's pet friendly as long as you pay a cleaning fee for the animal hair, but at Wrightsville Beach, we saw a sign saying no dogs allowed on the beach. Just keep that in mind. We had a great time there, and I would definitely book it again.

    We really enjoyed the atmosphere. The hot tub was a little dirty but not horrible. We all enjoyed the air hockey table, my daughter loved it the most. I loved how we didn't have to meet anyone there and when we called the owner he told me checking was at 4 but let us come in anyway because of our long travel. I liked how everything was waiting for us and all we had to do was unpack and relax. If we ever come back up to North Carolina, we will definitely be calling them again!

    A true gem of a place! I performed a last minute booking with few expectations but fortunately fell upon this wonderful space. The cottage's decor truly captures the ambiance of the coastal Carolina experience. The cottage sits on a large nicely landscaped yard with plenty of parking and privacy gates. The host was exceptionally kind, truly went out of his way to help ensure my comfort. Looking forward to coming back with my family this summer and enjoying the place again!

    Spacious, cool music art decor, full kitchen, comfortable living room and dining area for hanging out, nice beer and wine glasses in cabinets. It’s like your friend gave you the keys to their apartment. We personally like that the owner’s (or resident’s) stuff was there and apparently available to use. Was not sure if it was OK to drink the craft beer in the fridge…so we just had one. :-) Needed some balsamic for salad leftovers… easily found in the cabinet. Fully stocked apartment. Great location.

    The location was great. We were in the middle of everything and only 12 or so minutes from the beach. There were lots of restaurants around to try. We enjoyed getting in the pool. The hot tub wasn't working, but that was okay. The room was clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful! My boyfriend accidentally left his toiletry bag at home, but he was able to get what he needed from the front desk. Highly recommend!
