Really pleasant stay!

The house was very clean and cozy! The location was quiet and convenient. It made it wasy to run around to the local beaches and downtown and still be close enough to swing by the house if we needed. Highly recommend staying here!

Great place to stay

This was a quick trip to spend time with my UNCW college student. Loved the house and location. Very cute property and very clean. The owners made it easy for booking as well as check in. They are great to work with. We look forward to our next vacation visit at any of their properties!

Wilmington House

Beautifully appointed, comfortable surroundings, and very roomy. Would have liked to have had top sheets on the beds and some spare towels. But we loved being there and the convenience of the location. Nice, quiet neighborhood. All in all, great place, wonderful stay.

Great stay close to UNCW and beaches

We had a great family stay at this property. The house is exactly as pictured. The fenced in yard and neighborhood are wonderful and made super easy for morning jogs/walks. The house is very close to UNCW (about 10 min) as well as Carolina Beach and Wrightsville Beach. Communication was super easy, the beds were comfy and the towels were some of the nicest we have had at any VRBO. Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful Space

We spent the majority of our time at a family members home, but this was the perfect space to get the kids away from the activity. It is clean, quiet, had a firepit and grill (that we didnt get the chance to use). The neighborhood ia also quite peaceful. Thank you Alex!

Great experience!

This property was super clean, very nice, and very “user friendly”! Everything was set up super professional with classy binders covering everything from check in to check out. Labels on every switch in the house to labels on drawers. We never had to guess where things were located. Owner had great resources for us in regards to things to do. Fenced in back yard was great for our toddler to run around. Nothing about this property was subpar!

UNC-W Graduation Celebration

The house and neighborhood were perfect for our family's celebration weekend. The location was super convenient. The house had games, Netflix, plenty of bedding and towels, and easy labeling in kitchen made meals easier. Nice to have aluminum foil provided! Thanks so much for a great comfy weekend getaway.

Can’t wait to return!

We only booked this property for a quick visit with friends in the area for Easter, but very happy we did! Alex was very prompt with responding to any questions I had from start to finish. Property is located is a great quiet neighborhood…very close to the downtown and beach areas. Everything was easy to find and/or use in the property as it all was labeled! House was very clean and stocked well with supplies/toiletries. We were very happy with our stay and will definitely rent again when visiting our friends.

Very pleased

We were very happy with our stay here. We live in WNC and were doing a tour of NC for the kids spring break and spent a couple nights in the Wilmington area. House is in a nice quiet neighborhood perfectly positioned between the beach and down town. House was clean and well organized. Highly recommend.

Successful Spring Break with the grandkids

We decided to stay closer to home this year for our annual spring break week with our grandchildren (ages 13 & 8). The house was perfect for our needs...everyone had their own rooms, comfortable, well stocked, and the location was central to all our activities. Alex was very responsive to all questions and provided additional information about kids activities that were available. Would highly recommend this destination is you are traveling to the Wilmington NC area. I know we would use it again. Thanks Alex!!!

Nice Gettaway

We went to visit our son who is in the Marine Corps for the weekend. The place was perfect. The place was clean and up to date. Everything in the house was lable witch help out when turning on lights or even when looking for utensils. My son slept on the pull out bed and it was conformable. The bed in the room when also conformable. I will be renting this place again next time i visit my son.

Cute, clean and a Great location

Loved this house for our weekend in Wilmington. It was perfect for our group of 7. Alex was a great host, and the house was clean and really cute/updated. Good central location for going downtown, to the beach, shopping, etc. A great property at a much better price than we would have paid staying right on the beach. We also loved having a grassy gated backyard and outdoor dining area. All around a great experience. We will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Alex Tyrrell

Host profile image
Hello, we are Emma and Alex! Emma is from Vermont and Alex is from the land down under (Australia). This is our second year living in Wilmington with our dog Calvin and WE LOVE IT!

We love the variety of things to do in Wilmington, the great food, and of course the beach!

We're excited for you to experience Wilmington and we hope you enjoy your stay in our home.

Why they chose this property

We chose to move to Wilmington because we wanted to live by the beach and have access to a fun, artsy downtown scene. We love that Wilmington has great beaches, great restaurants and that there's always something to do.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this home because of the layout. We really enjoy being able to have one person be in the kitchen cooking dinner, while still being able to hang out with whoever is in the living room. It's a great entertaining space!
