Guests consistently say "ideal location!"

***We newly took back over from the property mgmt company so Vacation Rental By Owner removed our reviews. We have 30 reviews on the other major rental site with an avg of 4.75 stars. Please search for Island Bungalow Wrightsville Beach to read. Here are a few:

Karen: "The location is to die for... impressive street lined with striking homes and friendly people and right on the sound. We walked everywhere from this location. It was fun to see other people walking their dogs, walking to eateries, taking early morning jogs and greeting the sunrise on the beach. We picked up fabulous acai and yogurt bowls from Adapt Kitchen and Juice bar and ate them on a public gazebo looking over the sound. This is the life!"
Stephanie: "As someone who has lived at WB, location is everything. This home is right where you want to be! Loved having the screened in porch. Kristal went above and beyond to accommodate my family and pups needs and was so responsive.."
Tina: "First of all, Krystal was an amazingly responsive and accommodating host. We had all of the info we needed, complete with locals-only suggestions and personal touches to help us savor the beach. The bicycles, fenced yard, darling home and striking screened porch made our stay so comfortable! The neighborhood is splendid and the neighbors are magnificent. The description is so true, you can walk to everything...and we did! We can’t wait to go back again. Thank you, Krystal!!"

If you want a peaceful, laid-back, private getaway in the middle of the thriving Wrightsville Beach scene, check out this little bungalow! Truly the best of both worlds, this 2 bedroom, 1 and ½ bath bungalow is located on a peaceful neighborhood one-way street with mostly foot traffic BUT also in the middle of everything at Wrightsville Beach. After a grocery run, you can park your car for the remainder of your stay because “all things fun” can be reached on foot. That’s right….the beach, the channel, great eateries, impressive coffee homes, surf stores, ice cream, supplies, and gifts are all within a 5-9 min walk. It is an outdoor enthusiast “candy store!” Bikes will get you there even faster. If you must drive, we have a WB resident parking pass for your use which accepts you to park right at the beach. What a deal!

Animals? $200 pet fee. Rules: 1. One dog only at the discretion of the owner. 2. No aggressive breeds - pit bull, chow, etc... 3. No dogs that bark a lot. We like our neighbors :-). 4. If they need to be on the furnishings, bring your own blankets to keep dirt/hair out of ours.

The Bungalow - Recently refreshed: Discover the cozy appeal of this 2 bedroom, 1 ½ bath bungalow with a calming screen porch and outdoor patio. Appreciate the breezes that blow through as you read a book, have a beverage with a friend, or just ponder life. If you happen to visit during a month with an “R”, you must have an oyster roast on the vintage brick patio under trees. There is a cozy living/kitchen/eating area where you can prepare fresh Mahi or Grouper from Motts Seafood, appreciate a glass of wine, or snuggle up to watch a movie. We adore the broad window bar that makes us feel as if we are still outdoors. Well-supplied kitchen with blender, toaster, kettle, microwave, and everything needed to prepare. The beds are cozy. Wifi accepts for streaming with Roku. The beds are super comfortable: Queen, 1 twin, and one futon. This home is not the "granite countertop experience, but it is a 1950's style laid-back throw back beach home. Just remodeled to make lighter, brighter, and more comfortable. The painless living and unbeatable location are why people return to the Island Bungalow.

We provide two bicycles. You can rent SUP, kayak, surfboard, and additional bicycles just a few mins. walk. 250 feet from our front door there is public access for simple entry into Bank's channel. You will certainly be able to relax in this comfortable home.

For the Outdoor Enthusiast:
Water sports Reign Supreme: As a naturally gifted water sports hub, WB motivates travelers to maintain an active lifestyle once here. Named in the top 10 surfing towns in the world by National Geographic and the birthplace of surfing in NC, WB attracts both amateurs and experts who catch countless waves here. The many waterways from surf to sound convey a sense of movement everywhere you look. See crystal blue waters from a paddle board or kayak advantage. You can rent a boat, take a cruise, go fishing, or a scuba trip. Sign up for sailing lessons or go surfing camp. Just grab any kind of board or just dive in and get in on the action!
Surf and Paddleboard (SUP) - As one of the premier watersports destinations in the country, it’s a natural place to hold top-ranked surfing competitions and SUP events. There are pro-am surf fests and Wahine Classic surf competitions attracting all levels of female surfers. The Carolina Cup, held every spring, was crowned as one of the world’s five major SUP races. So if it is good enough for the pros, it is good enough for us all. You can even enjoy SUP Yoga in the ICW. For your board needs, there are multiple great surf stores, Aussie Island and Sweetwater in particular, which are 5 min walk.

For the Outdoor Land-lover
We sit on The Loop, a 2.5-mile spectacular trail that is a well-appreciated treasure that offers a walking or running experience you won’t find anywhere else. Test your running skills or just walk as you enjoy vistas of Intracoastal Waterway (ICW), Banks Channel, a live oak-lined and shaded path, and handsome salt marshes as you make your way around this gorgeous path. While always active but never busy, it is sure to inspire you to move!
WB Park offers four tennis courts, basketball, volleyball, kids' play equipment, obstacle course equipment, and fields to enjoy whatever you prefer. From May-Oct, every Monday the park hosts a FARMERS MARKET Mondays 8 am - 1 pm.

Fishing: From USA Today…
“With two fishing piers and four miles of white sand beaches, the town of Wrightsville Beach is a prime destination for fishing. Wrightsville Beach overlooks the Atlantic Ocean along North Carolina's Outer Banks, and anglers can catch a variety of native and migratory saltwater game fish including summer flounder, speckled sea trout, and Spanish mackerel. Angling opportunities are available year-round.

Downtown Wilmington: Often referred to as “little Charleston” has been a great destination for great eateries, nightlife, NC Battleship, Riverwalk, Cruises, Historical tours, art stores, Cotton Exchange, Gem studios, Horse and Carriage rides, and a complimentary trolley. In the last couple of years, this area has become hot with growth adding Convention Center, Performing Arts Center, Marina, Riverwalk extension, public concerts, and Saturday morning farmers market. Soon there will be a new public park at the new marina. A trip here during your stay is a must….Ask about favorite eateries.

Strategies for getting the perfect Wrightsville Beach vacation property experience:

When to book & When to go:

  • Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
  • Summer is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To book the most suitable vacation home for your budget, we recommend booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular Wilmington, NC attractions and restaurants.
  • Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your group qualifies for a price reduction.
  • Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
  • Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning and choosing yourvacation home:

  • First, have your family agree to the best dates and a spending budget.
  • Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. \"Perfect location!\" Ditch the car and walk everywhere! Dogs Yay! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
  • Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property manager before reserving your rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to work out what bed configuration is suitable for your group.
  • Some rental properties allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the owner about your furry family members before booking.
  • If there's a certain Wilmington, NC beach you are crazy about, search for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
  • Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More considerations:

  • Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
  • Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
  • Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would back home.
  • Note any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are very helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
  • Be respectful. Often, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
  • Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to confirm you've collected everything. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition.
  • After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent feedback to stimulate future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your experience find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
