Spacious Home-Saltwater Pool and Hottub-King Bed
It was a wonderful place to stay when visiting Wilmington and the host was so kind and thoughtful! You can tell she cares about how your stay is and there were so many thoughtful details! My family is already asking when we can visit again.

"Saltwater Escape: 5BR Fun & Pool Paradise"
Very clean. Great for kids and family time. Lots of amenities but very close neighbors. Although they were to themselves and hardly seen or heard them.

Coastal Home with Inground Pool
This was by far the best Airbnb we have ever stayed at. The house was beautiful, the pool was amazing to have for the kids. Hosts supplied everything you’d need for beach and or pool. Cathy was very helpful and so friendly. It was our first time in NC and we did not want to leave. We would definitely like to stay there again in the future! Thank you for hosting us!

private pool home dog friendly centrally located
This place was amazing! The pool was beautiful and great for our family. We always take our dogs on vacation and the fenced in back yard was awesome. The ping pong table, foosball table and games kept us busy as well. Felt like home away from home. I would definitely come back next time we are Wilmington. Great place for families and dogs.

Mermaid Retreat* Private Pool* Pet Friendly
Great location, and a great time. Backyard with pool is perfect with plenty of room for activities and entertaining. You can walk to the beach and restaurants within minutes.

Beach Bum Rest & Relax (With Salt Pool)
Enjoyed the backyard and other amenities included. Great location. Would recommend to others and stay again.

Beautiful Bungalow w/ Private Pool
2nd summer vacation at Caroline’s home and I cannot recommend it enough. The house is clean, comfortable and fully stocked with everything you could need. Comfortable beds, clean linens and towels, spotless bathrooms and a large kitchen/dining/living area that’s great to hang out, cook and relax in. And that’s just the inside of the house. The pool and back porch are amazing. As a family traveling with young kids, I just can’t emphasize how much time we spend hanging out in the pool and on the porch. It really makes our vacation to have this awesome feature to enjoy while we are visiting beautiful Wilmington. Caroline is an excellent and responsive host. Communication is seamless and when the only issue during our stay arose (broken dryer), she responded immediately, had a repairman at the house the same day and even took our wet clothes to her home to dry them. She goes above and beyond. I wish I could stay at this house every time I travel! 10 out of 10.

CoastalCastle~Pool~Big~Family
To begin with, Alex was a great host, the communication and accommodation were fantastic. Responsive to our needs from an early check to a late check out. The house was a wonderful place to stay we had a large group of 12 and everyone had plenty of space. We enjoy the stay and also enjoy the amenities like the pool table, unfortunately we couldn’t use the pool because of the weather but other wise we enjoy our stay.

25 West Upstairs
My daughters and I had a terrific stay at this property over Easter Weekend in 2025. It was perfect for us -- a 5-minute walk to the beach and a 15-minute walk to a cluster of restaurants and shops and ice cream. Highly recommended!

Luminous Oasis
Emily’s place was immaculate, beautiful, and relaxing!! All rooms were well-equipped with everything we needed to enjoy a restful family vacation. She quickly responded to any question we had and was a terrific host. Without a doubt, we look forward to staying here again!

Sleeps 12+ 1 mi to UNCW+4 mi to beach+Grill |Pets
Great place to stay for a larger party. The rooms were clean and as described. We came for a family reunion in the area and everyone was happy with this place. Would recommend.

Coastal Corner-WB with a view! Book for Summer!
Rachel’s place was in the perfect location, right in the middle of great restaurants, coffee shops, stores, and beach bars. The photos did not do the house justice - it is even more beautiful in person with great homey touches and a cozy vibe. The balconies overlooking the marina was perfect and serene, and the walk to the beach was very short and doable. Overall it was a fantastic stay!

Designer Coastal Home with Pool and Day dock
We were impressed how comfortable her place was for us. We were moving from New Jersey to Leland and had a gap between closings and needed a comfortable place for an 8 night stay and it was absolutely perfect. Its a beautiful comfortable home and we couldn't have asked for anything more. Extremely happy with our choice of accomodations. Highly recommend. Beautiful neighborhood and pool area too. Just lovely.

Inn Denial - Unmatched Oceanfront Elegance!
Great house and location for 3 generations. Well stocked and everything seemed to work fine. Thank you.

Private 2BR Loft w/ Ping Pong & No Checkout Chores
The host is very responsive and helpful and was able to accommodate our schedule. I would recommend this spot and would stay here again.

Coastal Escape•Walk to Beach, Boardwalk+Golf Cart
I’ve stayed in many AirBnB’s as I prefer them to hotels. This one was by far one of my favorites. Our family spent the most relaxing, enjoyable Thanksgiving ever at this location. Everything from check-in to checkout was on point. It was clean and well stocked with linen, games n kitchen utensils. Beds were comfortable and the outdoor space was exceptional. My family didn’t know where we were staying until arrival and I am now the most appreciated family member. Close to the beach and extremely walkable area. You will not be disappointed.

Had an amazing time at Tim’s place and it was extremely clean and spacious enough for us. We loved Wilmington! Thank you again Tim! :)

Steps from Beach with Pool & Backyard
Had a great stay! The house was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. perfect for a weekend with friends. Great location from the beach, and the host was responsive and made everything easy. Would definitely stay again!

Lazy Oaks
Very beautiful and comfortable home, would be an awesome retreat when you just want to relax or be near the beach. We really just enjoyed our family time here. Will look forward to coming again. Also not sure if but some pictures I guess are to another listing there's no playground out back.

The OBB Sunrise/Sets Beach UNCW Grill Fenced yard
Had a wonderful stay! James was extremely helpful, he went out of his way to loan us a high chair so we didn’t need to travel with one. He was very responsive and kind! House is in a perfect location to travel all around in a quick trip - downtown, Wrightsville beach, midtown, monkey junction, the airport. It was serene and nestled in the woods and we will definitely be staying there for future visits!

Gypset Bungalow w/Garden Oasis
Love this place so much! So close to everything and the host are so nice! Perfect place for a fun vacation!

Pine Grove Turtle House, 3BR, 2BA
Nice place in the heart of Wilmington! We loved being close to good in-town spots like Mayfaire as well as to Wrightsville, and the decor gave the place a lot of character. Would stay again!

Mid-Century Coastal Escape | Heated Saltwater Pool
Lovely home and great hosts. Corinne and David were very warm, communicative and helpful. The home was clean and comfortable. The neighborhood was quaint and in close proximity to downtown and local shopping/restaurants. Corinne and David provided great local recommendations and the kitchen and bathrooms were stocked with essentials. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would love to return!

A Real Southern Charm-Dog Friendly-3 mi to CB
Our stay at Mark & Lisa’s was wonderful! The home was lovely; cute as a button and clean as a whistle. Our stay was delayed by a day due to TS Debby, but Mark & Lisa were so understanding. They went above and beyond to ensure we had the trip we wanted. We had planned this weekend beach getaway spontaneously so we could unwind for a few days before my educator husband went back to the classroom for the fall. My sister passed away unexpectedly a few weeks ago and our vacation plans had been waylaid by grief and handling her final arrangements. This was a much needed retreat for us both and the home/location delivered as did Mark & Linda. Very grateful that they so graciously shared their comfy coastal cottage with us 🩵
