Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Historic District, Wilmington

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.

Amazing location, extremely clean and spacious home, backyard was spectacular. 10/10 would recommend, Timothy was also very helpful with everything. If you’re coming to Wilmington, I genuinely can wholeheartedly recommend Timothy’s home.

Nice place to stay, very unique.

The house is in a great location, convenient to the downtown attractions without the city noise. Thank you for the extra touches, snacks and bottle of wine. Fantastic for the dog to have the fenced back yard and we found the bed very comfortable. Thanks for a great stay!

This is the second time we have stayed at the Hydrangea house. We were just as pleased this time as we were the first. Excellent host. We would stay here again.

The house was perfect for our small group. Just what we needed for a nice concert weekend... easy walk to the Pavillion. The host had great recommendations for the area around and was always prompt in response. Would visit this property again.

What a great place to stay. Was near shopping and restaurants. Very quiet and safe neighborhood. Monica was very friendly and very quick to respond. I would definitely stay there again. I also got the chance to meet her friendly beautiful dog. That was such a treat Thank you

This air bnb was great for our stay. The house itself was awesome and the beds were really comfortable. The neighborhood was fine driving distance to all things, but did not feel the safest walking home at night. All in all it was a good place to stay and the house itself had everything you could need when staying away from home. Kyler was quick to respond when our lock code wasn't working, and we had the problem solved in less than 5 minutes, so that was much appreciated.

The Seahorse Castle was perfect for 2! Clean, plenty of dishes and kitchen must haves, a soakable sized tub, decorated with beachy vibes, and just as described. If you have 4x4 I recommend Fort Fisher to drive out and set up on the beach. We had an amazing time, ate good food, heard live music, went to CB market around the lake Saturday morning, and can’t wait to return! Jeanette’s place will always be special to us, we got engaged! 💕 Kelly & Pauly

Great place to stay! Jarrod and his wife were very friendly and responsive with any questions on the app. They even let us check in early. Accommodating bikes was so thoughtful and fun for us as we biked to coffee places and lunch. We kayaked to palm tree island and that was so much fun! It’s also a great location to walk to the beach as well! The balcony was so peaceful in the morning and at night. 10/10 experience and first time vacationing to Wilmington. Will 100% come back!

The view the view the view! Listen to the beach your whole trip from your balcony. Comfortable, clean, convenient location, private and quiet! Excellent unit! We travel a lot and this was our favorite vacation spot ever!

This Airbnb has so much charm and character! The kitchen was stocked with all the spices and condiments we needed, especially for cooking seafood. There are so many little activities included. For example; a sound system, card games, and outdoor equipment (chairs, skim board, shovel). Sam is a wonderful host, very attentive. One evening, a small situation came up and he responded to our message immediately. In fact, he showed up to help at 11 pm! We truly enjoyed our stay. Wrightsville is such a special place. I highly recommend staying here if you are ever in town!

Had a great experience! Quiet location but still close to great restaurants, bars, and coffee shops.

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!

Great place to stay if you’re looking for a place to shower & sleep while being close to the beach! My only recommendation would be a full length mirror in the unit, with the only mirror you’re able to see in being in the bathroom it made it difficult for two people to get ready, other than that everything was great.

We had such an amazing time at River Retreat! Felt very safe and comfortable right at home truly. It unfortunately was raining so bad one of the days but that didn’t stop us we still had a great time, make sure you enjoy that sunset on the balcony or catch the sunrise, it’s worth it! :)

We so enjoyed our stay! The property was just as pictured and the view from the balcony was beautiful. Morgan was responsive and proactive, as well!

Really great location! The beach and theme park area we're an extremely short walk away. The building also had great vending machines, a small arcade, and private showers.

Loved this spot! Close to the water with a great view, easy access to restaurants and parks. Highly recommend if you’re visiting Wilmington!

As soon as you walk in the door you see the amazing view of the ocean through the wall of glass doors onto the deck. The decor was very “beachy” and absolutely beautiful! Bathroom was clean and functional. Bedroom was spacious and very comfortable. We had everything we needed. Just like home. Close access to the beach which we used 6 of the 7 days we were there. And right next to the pool! Extremely easy to find and to easy to access! Close to many restaurants! Book of instructions, favorite restaurants and things to do. Also a guest book that many who stayed there left great suggestions for food and fun. Our son and daughter in law stayed here in 2022 and recommended #501. It was the perfect place for my husband and I to celebrate our 45th anniversary. Peggy & Dennis 6/13-6/20 2025

It was our 40th anniversary and we decided that we wanted to go to our favorite beach in North Carolina. We could see the ocean from this apartment and a very short walk to the beach. Enjoyed sleeping on the beds and having 2 bathrooms were fantastic. AC was great and water pressure in shower, was too. They had everything you needed and didnt lack on the supplies. It was a memorable vacation that we will never forget. Thanks Curtis

Great stay on the Cape Fear riverfront in Wilmington. Mike's condo was as described on airbnb, extremely clean, easy check in, etc. Great location - central to the historic downtown, and walkable to everything. Mike communicated everything from check-in to check-out clearly and attentively. Highly recommend, and would stay here again on my next trip to Wilmington NC.

it was a lovely stay, but way you checked in at 3:00 p.m. and had to leave by 10:00 a.m. So I don't feel it was quite worth the amount of money that we paid, especially since we had to do some of the cleaning at the end. we're not really cleaning, but just you know start the laundry and what not. the location's great. I don't think there was enough mentioned on the steps on the ad about the steps that you have to to go up in order to get into the condo. it's quite a bit and if you've got suitcases or anything you can't roll them in so there's an enormous amount of steps and that was a concern or a slight problem. The place itself was cozy and comfortable and clean and lovely.

Clean and spotless. This cozy Airbnb is literally on top of Cape Fear River. Panoramic views and perfectly located. The Riverwalk below takes you anywhere you wan to go. We parked and walked everywhere. Coming to town mainly for a concert and it is a 20 minute walk to Live Oak Pavilion. Lots of coffee shops nearby and we loved the Prost Biergarten best!
