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.

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!

Totally Beaching - Unit #2
We had a wonderful two night stay! The place was beautiful and perfect space for our family -my husband and I, three kids and grandma! It is super convenient to everything. We rented the golf cart they had available and it was so much fun! They had chairs and beach wagons available which made it so nice and easy. The host was very nice and helpful!! We would love to come back!

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.

Beautiful Ocean View 2 bedroom, 2 bath
We had a great stay! The condo was cozy and clean, and everything was well-kept with all the things we needed. Victor was super friendly and quick to answer our questions. The location was central, and the view was beautiful. They provided beach chairs, pool noodles, and toys, which was nice. The only downsides were that the hallways smelled like cigarettes when we first arrived, and the restaurant was closed for the season, but that was a resort thing and no fault of the host. Overall, it was a lovely place!

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!

Quiet, Scenic Little River
Such a lovely, clean and beautiful home in a safe and upscale neighborhood. We loved the fact that there were several restaurants and bars that were walkable and delicious!
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.

Get Your Dock On! 4BR Sunset Views
We had expectations from the photos, but reality far exceeded our expectations. The home is true to the photos, immaculate upon arrival and everything clearly labeled and everything working (not a single burned out lightbulb). Nicola was absolutely pleasant to interact with, very responsive and helped make our stay absolutely wonderful. The home is well appointed with everything needed and lots of extras we were grateful to discover. And the home is perfectly located - we biked all over and barely used the car. Beach was a few short steps away. And plenty of outside space to relax and unwind. And the sunsets…….. just wow. My only regret - not staying longer.. We made some beautiful spring break memories with our children here - and I wouldn’t hesitate at all to return to the area - and would settle for no other property to stay. I’m so grateful I found this area and property. By far, my best AIRBNB experience yet was here. Thank you, Nicola, for sharing your beautiful home with us.

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!

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

Marlin Quay - Beach, Inlet, and Marina Views
Very happy with our stay here! Beach is such an easy walk with access directly across the street. Pretty sunset views over marina. The restaurant at the marina next door is also very tasty! The beach was lovely and quiet during our stay. The condo is decorated well and has a nice layout. Our family of 5 was comfortable throughout the stay. Highly recommend!

HS-0703 Ocean Front | Pools | Hot Tub | Lazy River
Overall it was a good stay. Todd was very friendly. The condo was clean and nice. The pool,lazy river, hot tub area was not so clean.

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.

Waterfront *Extended Stay Discount* Pet Friendly
The location was directly on the beach which was perfect. Located near everything which was another pro. I’d definitely book again.

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!

★Intracoastal Retreat★Resort Amenities★Golf Course
Working with Tanya and Jeff was super easy. Tanya was very communicative and helpful during our stay, she constantly checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. The condo was clean and had plenty of extra linens and supplies for the beach. My son and husband really enjoyed fishing off the pier, which was in close walking proximity to our building. The pool areas were clean and enjoyable. We also utilized the basketball court and pickleball court, which my boys enjoyed.

Intracoastal Waterway Waterfront First Floor Condo
we have visited our daughter at ccu often, and this condo was really nice. the view of the river was very nice from the balcony and especially loved seeing the pirate ship go by. the kitchen had everything you needed and loved the provided snacks and water. the place was decorated really cute and the hosts responded very quickly. would definitely recommend this rental.

Top Floor, Just Steps to Ocean 2B,2B Great Views
This is one of the best Airbnbs I ever stayed in. Clean and comfortable with beautiful Ocean views and access to the water.
