Perfect location for a wonderful weekend in Wilmington

The property was exactly as advertised, close to downtown and the Riverwalk, ample parking, and plenty of space to relax when we were not out exploring. We had a great time exploring Wilmington and Wrightsville Beach. We will return and hope to stay here again!

Mid week getaway

The Wilmingtononian was the perfect location to downtown. We walked everywhere and enjoyed getting familiar with the area and local shops. Our stay was very cozy. The setup was perfect for what we needed. It did get a bit loud in the early mornings with city life but it was still a good stay.loudTherecomplimentary

Rain ? Who cares!

We had a blast. Went to a show and instead of spending the next day at the beach we found a great place to hang out. Julie went to school there in the 80’s and one of her friends lived in one of the back units. We had a great time! Thank you
