We were very pleased with this condo! It was very clean and welcoming upon arrival. My family of 4 were all extremely comfortable and the balcony facing the ocean was amazing! We absolutely loved the location which was steps to the beach and walking distance to all the shops and restaurants! We would definitely rent this property again! Thank you!

Perfect location and beautiful views!

We enjoyed staying in this condo on our work trip to Wilmington. The location was perfect…easy to walk to stores, restaurants, etc on Wrightsville Beach. The condo and the condo building were well maintained and secure. The security guards and tenants were very friendly and helpful! The best part was our morning walks on the beach and the views from the condo’s deck! Highly recommend!!

This condo was impeccable! The decor was just our style and was super comfortable. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything we needed for cooking. The view was amazing and the location is top notch to walk to restaurants and shopping. My only complaint was the beds were a bit soft for our tastes bc there was a very think mattress topper on the beds. I simply removed ours after the first night and then slept great! We will definitely stay here again!

We were unable to stay at this location. The owner cancelled on us due to an emergency the day before we were to arrive. Thankfully the management company hooked us up with another ocean front property.

Beach and Family time

Wonderful clean 2 bedroom oceanfront condo with great views of ocean. Kitchen was stocked very well with everything we needed. Close to many great restaurants and coffee shops. Only downside to the complex is needed key for every entrance and many doors were hard to open. Need a keyless entry system. Also nonsmoking complex but workers who were trimming trees walking around pool with lit cigarettes. Can look past that and would definitely stay here again.

Great condo, great view, great location

Pleasantly surprised! Friday night late check in process worked. Condo is so clean felt like we were the first one's there since remodeling. Stocked well with all kitchen necessities ( Kuerig coffee maker (bring our pods), blender, toaster...) We did bring our own sheets&towels or you can rent from management company. (That was not clear on initial booking). Comfy king size bed, and the best shower heads in both bathrooms! Multiple shower heads, better than the Ritz. Great ocean views from bedroom and living room. Location allowed us to walk to Workshop coffee shop in the morning, Roberts convenience store for basics/wine/beer, and pizza shop. Friendly guard at condo entrance. Will stay again.

Notified rental agent and offered to reschedule however due to the recent Covid regulations I have requested a refund. Please understand this has no reflection on the property or owners, simply unavoidable. Still have had no response to my request

Im sorry, but your cancellation was not caused by the Covid19 situation. We did offer you alternate dates of stay but you decided not to travel. You elected not to purchase the travel insurance, which would have covered your illness since it was not Covid 19 related. For you to rate a property that you never stayed in is inappropriate. If anyone has questions regarding this fantastic condo, please contact us directly.

Nice apartment with beautiful view

We had a lovely time - very relaxing. Weather was great - only a few brief showers. Sunrise and moon rises were exquisite this week. Furniture and decorations were nice, kitchen well appointed. Liked the shower and the pool. Bed was a little high for us and probably too soft. Coffee pot needed descaling. I put in a vinegar rinse but it did not correct the problem with the descaling message. Worked ok in spite of this. Biggest detractor was the lock and key system. The doors were extremely hard to open and took several minutes to get the door open - very frustrating and inconvenient. Seemed like someone tried to put something in the locks to help but it ended up making our hands dirty and oily. Also, the door numbers were VERY hard to read and need a new numbering system along with the locks. Would stay there again anyway.
