The Jade Retreat in Historic Castle St. District

We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The home was very clean, beautifully furnished, and had everything our family needed to feel comfortable. We really enjoyed our time here and felt right at home. The host was excellent—friendly, responsive, and communicated with me throughout our stay, making everything smooth and stress-free. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a great stay, and we would happily book again!

Overall, we had a good stay. Check-in was easy, the home was clean, and the host was responsive whenever we had questions. The only issue we experienced was that a realtor (or someone associated with the property) entered the home early one morning without any prior notice. It caught us off guard and was a bit unsettling. Other than that, everything went smoothly and we enjoyed our stay.

It’s a nice place. I highly recommend this location. We had fun and Joel communicates with clear instructions. Thank you!

Great place

The space was great and easy to check in to. Unfortunately, the host notified us that they were going to have a realtor showing in the middle of our stay. They told us this once we were already checked in, no chance for cancellation, and did not seem concerned that they gave strangers access to a home where three women paid to have safety and privacy.

Ich war mit meinen beiden Töchtern in diesem tollen Airbnb.Wir waren tagsüber unterwegs und konnten unsere Abende in der tollen Location richtig schön ausklingen lassen. Diese Unterkunft bietet einfach alles. Die Strandtücher nebst Strandstühlen machten es wirklich perfekt 👌🏽 Wir haben es geliebt und haben uns geärgert nicht das Wochenende nicht auch mit gebucht zu haben . Tolle Gegend, tolle Stadt und definitiv ein empfehlenswertes Airbnb. LG Jocelyne

I was fortunate enough to stay in both of Joel’s units. The upstairs unit was very cool and well furnished. The downstairs unit was just as impressive. Nice features and well furnished. I would definitely stay there again. Very responsive and communicated well. Great stay.

The house itself was great, we really appreciated how responsive the host was. Every time we came back to the house we were greeted by the neighbors’ cat which was an added bonus

Seamless, easy, perfect!

Adorable maison, bien équipée et idéalement située au cœur du centre historique, à quelques blocs du centre-ville. Le porche de l’étage est un plus indéniable.

Really enjoyed staying here and would gladly book again. The beds and pillows were the most comfortable I’ve slept on in a while. Great amenities and just a short walk to a quaint downtown.

The place was amazing!

This place was fantastic, and Joel always responded quickly! It was clean. The kitchen was well-stocked with pans and utensils. There were bathroom towels, beach towels, and 2 beach chairs available. It was a 15 minute walk to downtown and 20 minute drive to the beach. Street parking was always available out front. The balcony was the best part! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great location, communication

Thanks for hosting us, wish we had a little better weather.

Joel is a very very good host! He was always responsive and very pleasant! His home was very clean and I absolutely love the red shoes on the wall! Overall, when I am in town again, I will book him again!

Good location.

Not a good place for contractors to stay the owners will steal items that you have delivered and then lie to you about taking them. I had to get the police involved two different times with these owners to get my items back. The owner had his elderly father call me to say that they had our items that they took off the porch after I went to the cops three times And then proceeded to blame me for having them delivered to a place where I asked if we could have deliveries too And then I had to call him back to have his son the owner contact me to get my items back and then I told him to bring him to the job site and when I need them back and I told him last week when he took him and then he proceeded to tell me to stick the bolts up my ass, and I went to the police again The neighbors across the street, saw the owners take the items off porch Come to find out the cohost of this property works for Wilmington Police Department

Great host , communicates very well . Nice house and good area

The location and rental were amazing! Joel was very helpful and allowed us to check in early! The balcony and separate bathrooms were a nice touch!

Great place to stay.

Great location and communication! And very comfy beds

Great stay! Quiet street that felt safe, quick 15 minute walk to to the riverwalk with lots of shops & restaurants around. Will definitely stay again!

Absolutely stunning place ! I would rent this anytime going forward if I’m in Wilmington! The front porch vibes are great for morning coffee or just hanging out ! Beautiful kitchen! Super comfy beds ! Great communication with the host!

Wonderful experience at Jade Retreat. The host provided easy, clear instructions for checkin and checkout. The unit was located in a convenient historic area close to all of the shops and restaurants in downtown Wilmington (5 minute drive). Highly recommend for a weekend getaway!

Stayed here for a bachelorette weekend. The house was very clean, the door locks were easy to use, and we really enjoyed that there was food and drinks within a couple minutes walk. Great place for the price.

I loved staying at Joel’s place! The Air bnb was in a great location and I felt very safe staying here as I was traveling by myself. Having a kitchen and laundry was a huge plus for me. I also loved being able to use the beach chairs and towels for a beach day! I will definitely be back! Thanks!

Great location and perfect sized airbnb for a wedding get away! Joel & Lauren were incredible hosts and very responsive to questions and concerns. Parking was super easy and the neighborhood was super walkable. Lots of thrifting and coffee shops less than a block away. The split air units in the room was amazing in the summer heat since each couple had different temperature preferences. Thank you for letting us stay!

Such a great spot, perfect location to downtown!! Would absolutely stay again!

very satisfied

We had a great time in Wilmington and enjoyed Joel’s place! We hope to be back soon!

A lovely home!! In a charming part of Wilmington and was clean and had a cool staircase. Host was very kind and helpful! Would recommend and come back 😊

We really enjoyed staying at The Jade Retreat! It was very clean and there were nice extras like some K-Cups, coffee creamer, oatmeal. Loved the eclectic design, which matches the quaintness of the Riverwalk shops and restaurants. The hosts were great to work with and responded very quickly to any questions we had! Thank you, Joel and Lauren!

Overall a great stay. 15 minute walk to the Riverwalk and downtown, so many options for bars/restaurants. The spiral staircase, while beautiful, was not my favorite to navigate with luggage or groceries. Also the entryway was a little snug when trying to enter the main door to the apartment door. Even so, I would definitely stay again for a weekend getaway! Bonus, host was super responsive and helpful.

Absolutely loved this Airbnb! The place was super clean, really cute, and in an awesome location. We were just a short drive to the riverfront (5 minutes), great restaurants, and fun little shops. Perfect spot for a weekend getaway—would definitely stay again!

We had a great stay! The deck was our favorite place to sit and enjoy morning coffee or watch the rain. Everything was as described and Joel and Lauren were attentive hosts. We would definitely stay here again.

This Airbnb was perfect. It was in a good location and really made our stay enjoyable.

The place was convenient to the historic downtown and riverwalk.

Joel and Lauren were wonderful hosts, they were quick to respond to all of our questions and or concerns. The location was great and parking wasn’t an issue. The unit is only accessible by a spiral staircase which was a little challenging with luggage and groceries, but aside from that the property was well kept, very clean, and had all that we needed for our Wilmington stay!

This was a good stay, hosts are very responsive and friendly, house was in great condition when we arrived.

This house was amazing! We especially enjoyed dinners on the balcony. The hosts are great! I forgot an expensive medication in the fridge and had no trouble getting in touch with them and getting it back! We would definitely stay with them again.

Clean and unique stay. The kitchen was fully stocked with any thing you would need to cook. There were even two beach chairs available. Plenty of supplies to wash dishes and do laundry. Extra blankets in the bedrooms were nice. I wish it was noted a little more clearly in the description that it is a two unit home and this is the second level, only accessible by the spiral staircase.

Thanks for the long stay and thanks for always being so quick to respond. This home was a perfect place for my crew and the host was so kind. It had all the things you need to feel right at home.

Joel and Lauren had a beautiful cozy place to stay. They had a great kitchen set up coffee and so on. They were very responsive and we had everything we needed. We will definitely look to stay again. Perfect for 4 people. Close to a lot to do but far enough to feel peaceful. We loved the artsy touches in the decor. Thanks again for having us!!!!

Fantastic stay! Very clean and the host was very polite and friendly. The place was beautiful and the location was perfect for to explore downtown Wilmington. Highly recommended!

This property is a nice place to stay, not too far from downtown and far enough sway to be tranquil

The apartment is in a great location with plenty of street parking. It’s nicely furnished and very comfortable. Joel and Lauren are incredibly quick to respond to any questions. We had a great experience.

Great location! Nice and cozy!

We really enjoyed our stay! We were right within walking distance of downtown and the location was also on a quiet street. The house is lovely and exceptionally clean and cozy. We would definitely recommend!

My family and I have stayed at Lauren and Joel's 2 times now and it is our go to in Wilmington. The house is near downtown and within a short walk from some great places to eat. It is a just a bit further to the heart of the historic downtown. The apartment is very clean and has everything you could want. The beds are nice with great soft pillows and blankets. Lauren and Joel are super nice to speak with and their response time is within 20 mins everytime I send a message. I would highly recommend this host and their listing. We will be back to Wilmington in a few months and look forward to staying there again.

amazing place to stay in wilmington. walking distance from downtown. beautiful neighborhood. Joel and Lauren were very helpful and responded quickly! definitely recommend!

I loved the house. The decorations were pretty. The bed was comfy. I loved the bathrooms and balcony. The fireplaces were nice. The only thing I struggled with was getting my heavy luggage up the swirling stairs. If u have help or a small bag then it’s prob not bad. They were super responsive. :).

Very accommodating of our employee who was there for a week. They checked and made sure there wasn’t any issues. Kyle loved the home. Thank you for letting him stay

Great place. Everything was so close the we did all weekend!

We enjoyed our stay and the house was perfect.

Very nicely renovated historical home split into upstairs/downstairs flats. Comfortable, well appointed apartment within walking distance of core commercial area of historic downtown.

One of the nicest and cleanest air bnbs we’ve stayed in ! The hosts are very accommodating and responsive. We enjoyed our stay .

Space was just as described. Comfortable, well stocked, fun decor. Great location: located in historic district, close to downtown, castle street, cargo district, greenfield lake. Terra Sol is a great yoga studio right around the corner. Would def recommend

I love it when you come to the house and there are no surprises: everything looks exactly as in pictures. There are no thousands of additional "do or not to do in the house" instructions. Furniture, bathrooms, and appliances are all new and well working. Quiet modern AC in each room. The house is very clean, and it has enough towels, personal care products, utensils, etc. The host is friendly and responds fast. The beautiful stairs in the picture are only way to the 2nd floor where the unit is, it is wouldn't easy to use them for old people and kids, so be aware of it. There are no designated parking areas, so we had to park our 1 car on a street around a corner because of lack of parking space. In general very nice and cozy house. I would recommend my friend to stay in it.

The house was uniquely decorated and a short walk to downtown. The beds were comfortable and the extra linens were a nice addition. Large covered porch on the second floor provided a relaxing place to drink a coffee in the morning. The hosts were super responsive.

We really enjoyed our long weekend here! Adorable apartment that’s got southern charm. Tucked away in a quieter area, with a short 15 minute walk to the downtown hustle and bustle. We absolutely loved the deck space, and the fire places. Would definitely stay here again!

It was the perfect getaway retreat for me and my partner to celebrate our birthdays. Everything was relatively walkable, it was clean, and the hosts were really friendly and responsive.

Beautiful and cozy home! We had an amazing time staying here. I personally cannot stand the heat so good air conditioning is important to me, and this home had one of the best! The hosts Lauren and Joel were very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend staying here.

Pleasant environment. Quiet & yet close & easily in walking distance to town

Great experience

This place is great! Super clean and very cozy. Highly recommend for a getaway to visit downtown Wilmington and all the beaches near by!!

Awesome place, great location! Would definitely stay again, Joel and lauren were very sweet and answered any questions or concerns we had with no problem and in a very timely manner! 10/10 recommend.

Look no further. This is an awesome place! Comfortable, close to downtown and Castle Street. Would def stay here again.

Great area and with walkability. Lovely place. Very peaceful.

Newly renovated. Everything was great. Would definitely stay here again!

My boyfriend and I stayed here for a few nights for a birthday celebration, we had a great time. The place was very clean, well stocked, and looked just like the pictures. Loved the decorations too! We were already talking about staying here again.

Exactly what we were looking for! Great location and close to so many great places to eat and explore. The house felt just like home! Will definitely stay here again whenever I visit Wilmington. Thanks Joel and Lauren!

Beautiful home and location! The only thing I would mention is the home is actually broken into two units, an upstairs and a downstairs. The stairs are very steep so if you're afraid of heights, you probably will want to skip on this one. Overall the place is nice and completely renovated! Highly Recommend!

Nice place, worked perfectly for us.

This place is 10 minutes from downtown. The renovations look wonderful. It is a very cool place to stay in. Def sacrifice the master bathroom to stay in the room with the balcony. You wont regret it.

Enjoyed. Close to downtown. Well decorated and peaceful neighborhood.

Great place to stay!

My stay was excellent start to end!! Very clean and just as pictured. I'm a travel nurse who works nights and really really appreciated the flexibility of allowing me to check out at noon so I could sleep a little before driving home!!! I absolutely loved the location! The street is very quiet and the neighbors are so nice. It's a walkable distance to everything good. Walked to the museum and to a great breakfast place. Definitely recommend this air bnb!

Finding something that wowed my friend was hard until stumbling across The Jade. All four of us immediately said this place felt at home. Cozy vibe, quiet neighborhood. Close to everything we mapped out to do. My love and I was discussing commenting again in future for the lower level spot as well. We all hope to come back again. Joel and Lauren great host. They have so many eateries and activities to do. Extremely helpful from the beginning to the end. Especially with getting an ashtray for my smoking love to assisting with an item left behind.The neighborhood is quiet and just felt at peace on vacation. We appreciated and enjoyed Wilmington!! We definitely recommend! Definitely coming back!

The place was nicely decorated and clean
