Clean and convenient

Property was clean and the location was incredibly convenient to downtown area. Could not figure out how to work TV’s but we spent most time exploring the city. Parking pass included was a nice touch

Short Stay

We were in Wilmington NC for a Concert at Live Oak Bank Pavilion. We were within walking distance to everything, the concert, great restaurants, entertainment and the water taxi. Our condo was clean and comfortable. My only complaint is we couldn’t figure out how to work the TV and figured it was too late in the evening to bother our host, directions would have been helpful.

Beautiful sunset and in the heart of downtown

Literally, everything is spelled out to a T in the descriptions and welcome package. It was easy to unload and get the parking pass and park. Apartment clean and equipped just right. Enjoyed walking around downtown with awesome nearby fine dining, dessert at Kilwins, sunset in the room and then a comedy show at Dead Crow. It was just right. My only suggestion on improvement is to upgrade the TVs. I was thankful to have brought my own hulu stick because there was a race on Peacock, and neither TV was smart. Couldn't change the volume in the bedroom and Spectrum's universal remotes are difficult. Understandably, vacationers should be enjoying the downtown vibes or the porch & its view.

Good trip

Love the property! I wish we had been given all the details up front, we were worried if everything was set correctly for weeks. Please send your customers an email confirming all is as it should be including location information. You should also ask them earlier if you want copies of their driver’s license and not wait until they are on the road in the middle of a 6 hour drive the morning of check in. Even though these things were annoying we would use your service again for this area because of the location and because now we know how things work.

Water Street VRBO

Beautiful view of the river and the battleship North Carolina. Parking was a few streets away, no problem since my husband was with me. Not sure it would be safe for a single woman. The condo was simply but nicely furnished. The only issues we had wax with the television that wax not working properly and the cofee Keurig did not work. Great river location and nice patio to watch sunset. Convenient to river front restaurants.
