Stunning Sunsets, Walkable Condo, Covered Parking
Great place and right in the heart of everything. We wish we planned more time, the place had beautiful sunsets.

Take a Break at Shore Break!
We loved this stay, beautiful view and very kind host!

Catching Sunsets on the Cape Fear River w/ Parking
This place is in the perfect location! It was so close to downtown which was perfect! We had a beautiful sunset view as well! You have to get coffee from the drift!

New! Oceanfront 2bd/2ba - Penthouse View!
We were very impressed with the condo! Clean and updated! Beach was steps away! We really liked decor and homey feel of everything! Felt more like walking into your home than anything! Highly recommend! Lauren is extremely fast to respond and always had the best and most helpful answers! Do not hesitate! You must go!!!!

Riverfront sunset balcony + free covered parking
Audrey gave perfect instructions regarding how to find the unit, and getting in was extremely easy. We loved the peace and quiet around us and the walkability to several great restaurants. It was the perfect getaway for the two of us for a couple of days. The space had everything that we needed and was very comfortable and very clean.

Downtown Riverfront 2 BR, deck, parking included
We travel to Wilmington a few times a year to see my daughter in college. This was by far the nicest airbnb we have stayed in. Yes it can be loud at night but you are right in the middle of everything. Shopping, restaurants, bars, river walk. We had a teenager with us so we were able to walk right downstairs to go to a few bars but not be too far away from her. The balcony back deck is great too. She felt like she was at the club on Friday and Saturday nights. The sound machine in the bedroom was great to override the noise when it was time for bed. Kathleen was so friendly and helpful and communicated throughout our stay. She was even there when we arrived to make sure we knew where to park. The unit came with two parking spots which was great when my older daughter came into downtown to visit. We would love to stay at this spot again!

Beautiful Waterway View w/parking *No service fee!
Great place!!!

River Retreat
Super comfortable bed! Slept great. Loved the shower and plenty of hot water. Lovely views front and back. Saw Chris and the puppy a few times...super friendly and let my kids throw the ball with the sweet pup. :) Would stay here again except my daughter is moving to a different area in Wilmington.
Waterfront house rentals

Stylish Waterfront Home with Dock & Ocean Views
Lisa was an awesome host. The house had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable. The backyard had an amazing set up and the front porch was perfect for morning coffee.

Anchored Inn
This home was the perfect set up for a beach house. We loved the porch which had several comfortable chairs and a nice bar table with an umbrella. and large kitchen with an open floor plan. Jim was very punctual with getting back to us and super friendly and helpful! We will definitely stay here again.

The Regency
Beautiful houseboat exactly like in the pictures. Being the end unit, it has the best view of the river and Battleship North Carolina. It also has better privacy and access convenience to the community picnic area. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. Everything was perfect!

The Riverbend @ Old River Acres
Beautiful home, spotlessly clean in beautiful surroundings. Kitchen was well stocked and it was fun to use the provided kayaks!

Oceanview - Waterfront w/ private dock
Beautiful house with plenty of room for us. The house is very clean and within walking distance to the beach and activities.

Waterfront Cottage with Panoramic Waterway Views
We had unforeseen circumstances that required us to book a new stay last minute late at night on a Friday. The host was responsive immediately and accommodated us. The house was clean and beautiful. It was a short drive to the beach. It was a great space to relax at whole unwinding from from the sand and sun. They provided great recommendations and we would definitely stay there again. Thanks for the great stay.

Our Place By The Sea
If you like a beach setting, if you like the lure of the ICW and marsh as i do, then you will love Bob and Donna's listing in Oak Island. This is my new favorite place. Perfect home away from home for my family of 5. Home and amenities are perfect. Wonderful Carolina room and back deck with great views . Easy 10 minute walk to the beach.

Intracoastal Waterway Cottage Boat Dock Fishing
Great place to stay and relax. Picked a place on the intercostal water to crab but only caught a few. Maybe August was too late. I liked how she had a lot of towels and labeled where things went in the kitchen. Plenty of stuff such as paper towel, trash bags, dish washer pods, and laundry pods, etc. I’ve rented places before where we had to go buy trash bags and other stuff for the stay.
Waterfront condo rentals

Cozy Downtown Condo with River Views
Staycation weekend. We’re able to explore Wilmington without a car. Well equipped kitchen. Quiet, peaceful and well stocked with lots to do within walking distance. Loved it! Thank you Tara!

Seas The Day w/ Fantastic Marina Views!
We have already recommended MK's place to some others - however, we did warn them that the unit was up 34 stairs! There was nothing in the property description to indicate that and for a couple of 73 year olds the climb with all our stuff was too much. Thankfully we had our young strong kids along! We always appreciate being able to bring our dog along, and he, along with the rest of us, totally enjoyed the 2 private balconies. The ac was plenty cold, the dryer not so hot. Beds comfortable, covered parking a plus, and we all enjoyed the pool. Location was the best, able to walk to every place, and that made it worth the 34 stair climb. Highly recommend Hang Ten Grill for huge salads and best wings ever, Salt Fish for yummy cocktails and deliciously unique entrees ( make a reservation), the Fat Pelican for a fun experience. We had a wonderful time and can't wait to go back!

Beautiful Cape Fear Riverfront Condo Wilmington NC
The apartment is on the second floor with a beautiful view overlooking the boardwalk and Cape Fear River. Nice size balcony and large front windows. Comfortable bed and furniture. Kitchen has everything needed. Steps from the center of downtown.

Getaway @ The Waterway Wrightsville Beach
The place was very cozy with lots of walkable options. Easy to drive downtown or get to the beach. We enjoyed our stay very much!

River FRONT | SuperHost | Free Parking!
Everything regarding our expectations was met. We found lots to see and do in the area. Great seafood and drinks in the immediate area... we love Wilmington NC. Can't wait to return! Jim Miller

Panoramic River view Downtown Condo w/Balcony
My teenage daughter and I stayed here over her Spring Break and it was perfect! The location is great! The gorgeous view of the USS North Carolina from the balcony at sunset is absolutely stunning!! The condo is in a safe, secure building and the parking pass for the garage that is only a block away was wonderful to have. The hosts gave very detailed instructions and were very responsive during our stay. I highly recommended staying here next time you are in Wilmington!

DT~ Free parking~ Beach 20min~ Sunset river views
We loved our stay! It was the perfect getaway with my husband and our 10 month old. Easy check in. The elevator was perfect for our stroller and easy to bring our bags inside. The balcony views were amazing. Walking distance to everything downtown! The hosts were super responsive and helpful! We will definitely be back and recommend staying here to all!

Balcony + River Views | Walk to Downtown
Loved staying at Taryn’s. It was homie and cozy and everything I could’ve asked for. I wanted a small clean place with things to do around it and it’s exactly how I imagined it! Nothing wrong with the place at all and if there was something that Taryn needed to tell me she was quick to do so. Quick to text back and flexible. 10/10 place will 100% be staying here again.
