Things To do:
Welcome to Wilmington, NC! Whether you are here for the college, the downtown, or the beach, we have the ideal vacation home for your visit. Our waterfront downtown region is the highlight of a great Wilmington vacation. Downtown Wilmington is steeped in history, filled with attractions, and offers all the enticing eateries and stores of a major city, while retaining its modest-town coastal appeal. Surrounded by the Cape Fear River, the Intracoastal Waterway and the ocean, a world class beach is a stones throw in any direction from Wilmington.
Wrightsville Beach is a oceanside town named as one of the world’s best surf towns by National Geographic, and is the ideal place to practice all water sports. Get a true feel for island life and experience the uncrowded shore and mild temperatures of Wrightsville Beach, where you could be fishing, paddle boarding, or shelling in crystal-clear waters, or just appreciate long, charming walks on NC’s most accessible beach. 20 mins. further down the peninsula, you will find the oceanside towns of Carolina Beach and Kure Beach.
Adventure awaits. Discover aquatic wildlife and vegetation at the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher or enjoy a calming ferry ride across the Cape Fear River to a quaint little shopping town called Southport. Take a trip back in time at the Fort Fisher State Historic Site and Museum which features live oak covered trails and bunkers from the American Civil War. Stroll through the marsh to visit the home of the famed Ft. Fisher Hermit. Or wind down with nature at our two state parks, sure to provide a memorable experience with hiking, fishing, and water activities such as paddle boarding and kayaking and search for a Venus Flytrap which is native to NC only. As one of North Carolina's most undeveloped beaches, the island offers a unique opportunity to see many diverse coastal wildlife, including pelicans and loggerhead sea turtles, in their natural habitat. Whether it’s exploring activities on the island, appreciating the ocean vistas, or enjoying a drink by sunset from your own private balcony, Pleasure Island offers diversion for every enthusiast!
Explore the treasures of Carolina Beach, ranked one of the top 10 boardwalks in the country by Food & Wine magazine. One of the last remaining beach boardwalks on the East Coast, it includes a variety of eateries, arcade, stores, ice cream, Famous Britts Donuts, bars, and more! During the summer months, the Boardwalk is bustling with the sound of music, carnival rides, bingo, family nights, and events like the weekly fireworks and concert series. Rent a Jeep, bicycle, or golf cart as the most convenient ways to navigate the island. Annual off- season events include the Cape Fear Kite Festival, Christmas by the Sea, and the Island of Lights Festival.
We look forward to you visiting us!

Tips to get the optimal Wilmington, NC rental experience:

Get the most from your budget:

• Summer time is high season in Wilmington. To book the most suitable rental within your budget, we suggest booking in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides contain offers and deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

How to select the best rental home:

• Begin by selecting your potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Dogs Allowed-10 minutes from Beach or Downtown-Quiet Neighborhood has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always accessible on booking pages. If not, reach out to the property owner before reserving the home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You will need to determine what configuration is best for your vacation.
• If there's a certain Wilmington, NC beach you long to visit, browse homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or might be applied to your invoice.

Considerations for your stay:

• We recommend storing the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make certain no damages are attributed to your visit, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the property manager right away to document any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
