The Love Shack
The Love Shack is located in a quiet and beautiful area. While sitting on porch one can see the water from the bay. Very relaxing. The apartment had all the comforts of home. When I arrived there were fresh flowers and a homemade pastry waiting for me. It had all the amenities one needs while away from home. The bed was very comfortable too. The hosts were very kind, considerate and responsive. I will be returning for another stay in the very near future.

Pelican's Perch, Oak Island, NC
This is best stay I’ve had at an Airbnb. Comfortable, quiet, safe for traveling alone, and hosts were just the best. Goldie the cat , who would’ve stayed out my way had I not enticed him with scritches and a few treats, was an added bonus for me. I booked a second consecutive week!

Lovely Little Beach Guest House
Lovely spot , close to the beach can hear the waves from the patio , very friendly and helpful hosts with a sweet cat , friendly neighbors and sweet doggies walking around eager to say hello to my dog on our walks , more quiet and peaceful than CB if you know the area but only a short drive down the road from CB for the Ferris wheel and spots . I always love visiting fort fisher , I’m fond of history. 5/5 , book it 💜

Studio Aerie
This was SUCH a cute and perfect space. It is very clean, in a wonderful/safe neighborhood, and close to everything. I would highly recommend this spot. Donna is very responsive and a wonderful host!

1866 Historic Downtown Home STL2019-0279
Very close to everything downtown yet was able to just relax in the peaceful surroundings. Very clean and looked exactly like the pictures. Would definitely recommend.

Pond View Loft Apt
Sarah was a very attentive host! She gave us great local recommendations and was always responsive. They even replaced the record player so my teens could listen to them. Would highly recommend staying here!

Nordic Studio Escape in Central Wilmington
We loved our stay at Siri’s place! It was exactly what we were looking for. The location was between downtown and the beach. There is a coffee shop within walking distance and the street reminds me of my childhood.

Bird's Eye View - downtown, quiet, pet friendly
We absolutely loved our stay at Jason & Katie’s spot. They have thought of everything & we enjoyed the balcony porch! We brought our two small pups and it was so nice to have a little yard with a gate. We will definitely be back!

Romantic Weekend in Historic Wilmington
Wow! What an amazing place and a great host. My wife and I were looking for a spot to celebrate our 16th anniversary and take in all the history of Wilmington. Jane’s place was in a beautiful historic house, in such a great location for us to walk everywhere we wanted to go and see all the historic houses, close to the River walk and all the restaurants and shops. We absolutely enjoyed all the details in Jane’s place, easy parking, easy entry, quiet location, great communication with the host. We felt right at home and absolutely adored staying there. I can’t recommend this place enough and will look forward to staying here again. Thank you!

Private Queen Studio ~10min to downtown & beach
We enjoyed our stay it was perfect for our Wilmington visit. We hope to come back again!

Cozy Coastal Cove
not saying you’ll get engaged after staying here…but it did happen to me 😂. this was such a perfect spot for my boyfriend and I to getaway for his birthday. the shower was amazing and the location is in the best part of wilmington. I highly recommend this space for a couple looking for a romantic getaway

Pool House Cabana with Jacuzzi
Allie got me in for a two day trip with a week's notice. Had an absolute fun time in the hot tub and a very a clean place. She was very responsive and I even got to play fetch with her dogs 🐕

Backyard Beach Barn ~ 3 miles to beach!
The place was just as described, with an awesome TV perfect for plugging in our Switch at the end of a long beach day. It was a good location for being a close drive to campus, Wrightsville Beach and downtown Wilmington. Johnny was great about communicating with us quickly whenever we reached out. We even accidentally forgot some nice clothes in the closet, and he was kind enough to mail them all back to us on the same day.

Midtown Bungalow: Near UNCW, Beach, Golf+ Downtown
Our stay was enjoyable and pleasant. The space was very clean and relaxing. Our hosts were prompt and accessible when we had questions. We would definitely return when in Wilmington.

Private Pool House!
The private pool house in Carolina Beach was wonderful! The house was clean, the pool and hot tub were clean and wonderful, the extra amenities were a fabulous touch. The location is extremely convenient. Walking distance to the beach on one side, and a beautiful park and greenway on the other. Christiana is a wonderful and attentive host. We would definitely recommend this place 100%. It was exactly what we needed.

Cozy Central Apartment 2mi. from Boat Ramp
We were in town helping our son move into a new apartment and needed a place to stay that was central in Wilmington to where we would be and this place was perfect! It was impeccably clean, instructions were clear regarding parking and check-in, and it was decorated really well. We would definitely return to stay here again!

Hidden Haven
My fiancée and I stayed at Mark’s place and were less than 10 minutes from grocery stores, restaurants, Jungle Rapids Family Fun Park, and our gym (Crunch Fitness). We also enjoyed our trips to Wrightsville beach just about 10-15 minutes away depending on traffic. We had a blast and it was a great way to celebrate our engagement.

Southport Tree Escape * King Studio Near Downtown
Ginga, Oz and Roxy are wonderful hosts! We stayed for a full week. It was so nice to come back every day and have a lovely quiet and well equipped place to relax and read a book, and we both slept so well here. The location is convenient to shops, restaurants, and the waterfront. Everything is taken care of and if you need Ginga she was so helpful with any question but otherwise they are very respectful of your privacy. But they are such good people we found ourselves wanting to say hello! Highlights were Mr. P's and Provision Company plus swimming at Oak Point! For theatre lovers the Brunswick Little Theater (nearby) is a fun evening of community theatre run by an all volunteer staff. We would be lucky to stay here again. Thank you Ginga and Oz. It was a pleasure.

Creekside Crofter- private retreat
Verrrry cozy and very nice place to crash after checking out a bunch of places at Wilmington. Everything was spotless and neatly organized when I arrived. The host was very friendly and quick to reply!

The Caddy Shack
The Caddy Shack was literally perfect for our stay and an ideal location for what we wanted. The beach was 10 minutes away and anything we wanted to do in Wilmington was only 15 minutes away. The house is cozy and we loved the fenced in patio for our pup with the tv and lights. (the golf game they have out there is addicting! Lol. ) Blair was super nice and responsive for any questions I had. We will definitely be back!

Adorable 2 Bedroom 2 Bathroom Guest House
This place is a Gem in a country setting. The luxury is in the soft close cabinetry, the leathered granite, the plentiful lighting, the comfy beds. It has everything you need to explore Coastal NC. The deck has elevated-comfortable!- Adirondack chairs made of recycled plastic for no splinters. The sunrises are beautiful from the deck with a fresh cup of provided coffee. The birds and squirrels chatter and the forest smells amazing. There’s no road noise. The guest house is immaculate, the kitchen is stocked and well appointed with good knives, spices, oil, mixing bowls, pots and pans, glass containers for storing food… anything you’d need. Corelle type plates for food safe and break resistance. There’s a large farm sink and disposal. I just cannot believe how at home I felt with all of these touches. I could have stayed for weeks. My hosts were very responsive to my questions. I will be recommending Ross and Abigail’s place to my friends and family.

Close Enough
My mom and my 2 little dogs stayed at Ryan's place for a week. The place was really nice and clean and looked just as it does in the pictures. Easy to find and no issues with check in. The surrounding area is really nice and peaceful and great for walking my dogs every day. Easy to get to the beach and restaurants. Really enjoyed our stay. The larger bed in one of the bedroom was super comfortable and there were plenty of towels provided as well as beach towels and all the amenities that were needed for a week long stay. Ryan was a great host and easy to communicate with.
