The entire duplex was just constructed in 2024 and is ready to host you whether you're looking for adventure or relaxation!

This is a brand new home in Wilmington's Historic District--a rare find! The interior is modern with an open living space and a constructed-in electric fireplace. This unit can sleep a max. of 4, but unless there are kids or petite adults it is most cozy with 2 or 3. It is a 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom unit with a pull out couch in the living area (slightly bigger than a twin) along with a convertible accent chair (slightly smaller than a twin). It has its own kitchen with a refrigerator/freezer, sink, dishwasher, stove, oven, microwave, & coffee maker. Essentials like plates, cups, cookware, silverware, & paper towels will be supplied for your use. Note that the bathroom is connected to the bedroom, so if guests sleeping on the pull out couch need to use the bathroom in the nighttime, they will need to access the bathroom by walking through the bedroom. This unit is one story and faces the street with its own private entrance. The other unit is two stories and has a separate entrance on the side of the home, however the walkway runs from the very front of the home down the whole south side and you may hear or see other guests walking to their entrance.

Tips and Tricks to get the best Wilmington vacation home experience:

Finding your best deal:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best rental for your budget, we recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wrightsville Beach area travel guide magazines that include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wrightsville Beach visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your search:

• Choose your dates and spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Downtown Bliss, Walk Everywhere! has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible online. If they are not listed, call the property manager before booking the home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to establish what is optimal for your family.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you will need a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Looking for unique amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental

More considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of issues.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To make certain that damages are not linked to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. Get in touch with the rental manager right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal items. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, remember to take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on great ratings to propel new bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
