Will be back!

Loved this condo. I didn't want to leave! It's quiet and comfortable in a great location. It's 3.3 miles to walk from the co do- around the loop- and back. Easy peasy! A few things I'd personally add to the condo is about 3 more luggage racks for suitcases. The dresser in the second bedroom is really small so if there are two or even three small people in there, there's not enough room. Maybe shower and toilet updates but overall it's a really great place!

Beautiful Condo with Great Views

The condo is as advertised.Very clean and inviting. Nicely appointed. There were two ladies on the trip and we felt safe and secure in the complex and the unit itself. It would be great if the second bedroom had a tv, but outside of that, the unit was perfection. We plan to stay in this unit again next year if it is available when we book our trip,,

AMAZING!

I wish I could leave 10 stars! Every part of the process was perfection. The view and closeness to the beach and ocean is incredible! When you first open the door to the unit your jaw drops, the view is better than the pictures. It is beautifully decorated. Our favorite part was that both sliding doors open basically the whole length of the living room ... you can feel the breeze, you can feel the sun, you can hear the waves ... it's amazing! The beds are so comfortable!! Also the couch and chairs in the living room are wonderful. There is real furniture on the deck with cushions (not the usual plastic stuff) and it makes it just so comfortable out there. The bathroom had nice touches like shampoo, conditioner and body wash as well as Q-tips, cotton balls and cotton pads and plenty of beach towels and extra blankets. Plus blankets in the living room to use on the patio so you could sit outside and enjoy the ocean even if it was chilly. And while we did not have a baby with us, there is an extra small room off the master with a crib and door that closes, such a nice touch! The kitchen was very well stocked. We had a few unexpected things come up during our stay and Erin was gracious and understanding and very accommodating. She responded quickly to any questions we had. It was a wonderful, wonderful stay and we cannot wait to come back. Thank you for everything Erin!!!

Early Summer Getaway

The property was in a great location and just as described. The little touches like coffee creamer, dish pods and paper towels made it even nicer. The property manager was great at communicating some unexpected construction during our stay. We enjoyed our time in Wrightsville Beach.

Much needed break

My husband and I stayed 4 nights and were lucky to have wonderful weather. We were able to take full advantage of the balcony to soak in the view and sound of the ocean waves. We barely used the AC. We had everything we needed. The unit is close to Wilmington and we had 2 dinners there. With traffic, it was between 20-30 mins depending on which area. Overall, we had a very nice stay.
