Spacious Home-Saltwater Pool and Hottub-King Bed
My family chose to stay in Rebecca’s home during the weekend of Ironman 70.3 NC and it was the perfect choice! The house and backyard are beautiful and the house was spotless. Rebecca was incredibly communicative, easy to get a hold of, and seemed to think of everything to make us feel welcome & at home. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for cooking both nights we were there. We had an awesome time hanging out back on the patio, cold plunging in the pool (in October), and relaxing in the hot tub. Would 100% stay here again and the area/experience had us thinking about how to get down to Wilmington/Wrightsville Beach more!

Your Own Private Paradise w/ saltwater pool
We loved our stay at Diana’s place! Her home was perfect for our family and provided plenty of things to do to settle in for a long weekend inside and outside of the home. We really enjoyed the playrooms close proximity to the kitchen/living room. Her home was well thought out for all ages!

Beautiful house and fantastic location in Ocean Isle. The beach access was incredibly easy to get to. The views were beautiful. Our little one loved the playground and mini golf in walking distance from the house. A great spot for families! The beds were really comfortable too!

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.

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
This was a wonderful place to stay! We had a large group of 12 people and everyone had plenty of room and there were many things in the house to keep the group entertained (many TV’s, pool table, swimming pool, and the awesome fire pit with swing chairs around it). Alex was an awesome host and responsive and helpful whenever I had questions. We all enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay again!

Location! Beach Private Pool, walk to all OIB Fun!
Great location with the public beach access close by, canal across the street and walking distance to putt putt and the pier. Heather was so kind!

5 o’clock Always
A wonderful week at Oak Island and at "5 O'clock Always." We so enjoyed the home, the privacy and the pool. Did I mention the pool. Clean and beautiful. We were often in it more than once in a day. The beds are comfortable and the master shower was a lovely experience. Heidi went above and beyond for us. At the end of our week we couldn't get home. We're from Asheville and Hurricane Helene had taken its toll. No passable roads to home and once there no power or water or other basics. We realized that we needed to extend our visit until things were better at home. Heidi was booked, but she performed a miracle and found us other accommodations. She will always be our hero.

Summer ‘25 Specials, Canal,Boat dock,Walk to beach
exactly as described. easy walk to beach access and peir, maybe two city blocks? Canal views were great at sunrise and sunset. Home was spotless and clean. Host was very responsive to notes and questions.

Luminous Oasis
Great location and a wonderful home for a medium sized group. It was slightly overkill for my wife, daughter and I, but offseason, met our needs perfectly. My main notes are around food: 1) the stove is powerful, so easy does it 2) Even offseason, the local restaurants can get booked up quickly 3) don't miss the gardens on the water nearby. 4) There were a few stuck in crumbs on plates in the cupboard - they had gone through the dishwasher, but hadn't been rinsed before they went so weren't spotless. Nothing a little rinsing before use couldn't fix.

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!

Barefoot Bungalow
My daughter ran the Oak Island Marathon. This house was a block to the start, clean, near the ocean and great restaurants. Kerri and Doug are great at communicating clearly and quickly. We would definitely stay again.

Inn Denial - Unmatched Oceanfront Elegance!
We loved the house…very quiet and private at Christmas time…very clean…I had many questions and Lindsey was very patient and prompt with her time…would definitely go back…

Private 2BR Loft w/ Ping Pong & No Checkout Chores
Had a great stay. The communication was fantastic, and the house felt like home. Conveniently located, short drive to downtown Wilmington and to the beach. Helpful advice: The street address is not on the mailbox, but on the house. But, you can't miss the Aqua color. Will certainly stay again.

A Wave from it All
A Wave From It All was a perfect vacation. The views and house are pristine, peaceful, and clean. The accommodations perfectly housed 8 of us. The screened in Carolina Room offered plenty of seating and beautiful views. The beds and linens were super comfortable. The kitchen was well-stocked with pots, pans and spices for cooking and beautiful dinnerware for entertaining. We loved the decor…it was kind of unique romantic-gothic-coastal-Victorian (I know a mouthful but if you see it you get it). It looked as though the owners had made it a hobby to collect beautiful original pieces of art. The house has a dock that we utilized for fishing, crabbing, floating, and kayaking. Under the house there are two kayaks, a paddle board, floats, chairs, skim boards and boogie boards. You can walk, bike, or golf cart anywhere. The hosts were by far the kindest and most thoughtful we have ever experienced. They offered excellent restaurant recommendations. 10/10 recommend!!! The island is beautiful.

Charming cottage in Sabal Palm with screen porch
B By the Sea is a wonderful place for enjoying a visit to Bald Head-it is close to beaches ( 1 mile), the Bald Head Island Club- just under 2 miles, The Market, and the Ferry! The home is spacious, clean, and ready to use as a home base for many fun activities or to relax. We were delighted to find a lagoon in the cul de sac that had many turtles, fish, egrets, and even a small alligator!

The Palm House W/ Outdoor Bath
If you’re looking for the best value stay to visit downtown Wilmington this is it! Beautiful home and less than 15 minutes from downtown. Tim is a great host and will make your stay more than enjoyable.

Beach adjacent house, near everything
Tim was super nice and very accessible. The place was great for the quick need that we had!

The OBB Sunrise/Sets Beach 5min UNCW 3beds 2bth
We loved our stay at this clean, quiet, and comfortable bungalow just a stone's throw from UNCW. Self check in was a breeze. The kitchen was well-equipped for cooking. The beds were comfortable and the whole home was pristine. James was quick to respond to questions. We'll stay again the next time we're in Wilmington!

Linens Included/Dog Friendly "Oak Island Oasis"
My stay at Oak Island Oasis was wonderful. The house was just as posted and very clean. Quiet neighborhood and perfect for walks along the ICW and to the Veterans Park. Everything you need for a great vacation was provided. The screened front porch and the back deck were both enjoyed. Backyard perfect for playing ball with my fur baby. Kolleen was wonderful to work with. She checked in when I arrived to make sure everything was good. I definitely hope to return next year for another fall getaway. OKI is my happy place!

Charming Island Bungalow
Awesome place close to the beach. Ashley’s place is very clean and has everything you and your dogs need! There are tons of things to do within the area and Southport is only a 10 min drive.

Reel Lucky- A Canal Home
This was our second stay at Reel Lucky! We have fallen in love with Holden Beach and it was nice to come back to a familiar place. Mark’s place is clean, great proximity to the beach and has everything you need. We especially love the backyard with the inlet and enjoyed fishing on the dock and sitting out on the porch at night. We would eventually like to have our own place at Holden beach but until then will choose Reel Lucky again and again. Thank you for another great stay!

Elegant Beach Home Oasis
Wow. Probably the nicest airbnb I’ve ever been to. The house is pure luxury with every amenity included. Coffee, cream, soap, shampoo, snacks, fruit, you name it. The pool is out of a magazine and I couldn’t believe it was all ours. The house is in an excluded gated community about 12 minutes to the beach. We will be back next year without a doubt. We had such a blast.

Beach House @Tiki Oceanfront Main House 3B 2bath
Had an amazing stay! The house was perfect, you couldn’t ask for a better location and view. It was a great set up for dogs and very accommodating all around. Jeanette was great to communicate with and all of her instructions easy to follow. We can’t wait to come back!
