Lovely visit!

I love this area so much, I’ve made several visits within this neighborhood and this was my favorite spot! Great restaurants within walking distance, incredible sunrises and sunsets can be enjoyed from the balcony. Jody was incredibly helpful, the space was spotless and very welcoming! I would highly recommend!

Bumpy Start

We found the check in and parking to be challenging. In other VRBO experiences the codes were emailed day of arrival. That works better for us. Parking blocks away was a challenge as well. Wish the lot on the corner behind the property was being used.We would rent it again, but hope for emailed codes and better parking next time. Luckily we found assistance in a nearby shop. Without that we would have had to drive home.

Perfect couple’s get away.

My wife and I rented this condo for our 20th anniversary. The condo was clean, comfortable, and provided everything we needed for our stay. The location is absolutely perfect. I could have sat on the deck all day with the light breeze that was blowing off the river. It’s crazy how many restaurants and bars are within a few blocks of this condo. The parking pass is a big bonus, even though everything you need is within a short walk. Will definitely stay here again!

Perfect spot

Unit was just as described, very clean and great location. We made lots of our meals in the unit, and it had everything we needed. Check in and check out were very easy. Will definitely rebook next time we head to UNCW.

GREAT LOCATION and COZY PLACE

This property is in the heart of the Riverwalk. You can not get better views than this. The parking is a little walk down the road but always had spots available and never felt uncomfortable. The loading and unloading area was confusing and we never found the "driveway" for that, but we packed light and didn't have any issues walking our stuff from the parking spot. The description of what stairs to use was a little confusing. It said the stairs closest to the far right. Those stairs were not for the unit. It was the first set of stairs that are enclosed from the right of the building. Again not something we couldn't manage just a bit confusing. There is no TV in the bedroom, which isn't a deal breaker but we like to have it on at night to fall asleep to. The laundry was a bonus, it is in the bedroom. The windows and doors being open was amazing. The fresh breeze and sounds of the boardwalk. No major issues, we did have issues with the bedroom fan and half the lights were out in the bathroom but when contacting the owner they were quick to respond and get someone over there. Again, we would 1000 times stay at this property. It was so comfortable, offers everything you need and THE VIEWS and LOCATION ARE THE BEST!

Location of the condo was perfect for convenience and views. Love the Riverwalk. The beauty of the Cape Fear River was a walk onto our private balcony to enjoy. Elijah’s is one of my favorite restaurants on Riverwalk and was walking distance.
