This was our second time staying here — we stayed for a week both times. Most recently, we stayed while waiting to get into our new apartment. The hosts were very helpful and accommodating, and the space was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. It made a stressful time a little easier, and we really appreciated that.

I had a great stay here! The place was clean, comfortable, and just what I needed. The host was especially kind and accommodating—when I needed to extend my stay, they were flexible and worked with me without any issues. Would definitely recommend!

Definitely a great place to stay! So quaint for a couples get away and it is a great location to a lot of restaurants and things to do that we never had to travel too far! They left great options of things to do as places to go if you were stumped which was incredibly helpful! The place smelt and looked clean, and the host was amazing! Great instructions that made it all very easy and was very responsive with any questions that I had! Would definitely stay here again!

All in all I was very pleased with my stay here. Blair was very responsive and accommodating with my requests. I would definitely stay here again.

The door batteries being dead set the tone for our stay. When we walked in, the bed was not made and there were sheets in both the washer and the dryer. The couch and chair were also full of crumbs and not made well. Additionally, as we used dishes throughout the course of our stay it became really apparent that almost nothing had been cleaned or checked for cleanliness (lip marks on glasses, gunk on plates in the cabinet and silverware). The bed also is not supported in the middle, as the metal rods under the center were bent and gave the mattress a u-shape when slept on. The entire time that we stayed here, we could not shake the feeling that we were staying in a unit that was just forgotten about.

Very clean. Looks just like the photos but it is a very small space! Perfect for a solo quick trip. My partner, my dog, and myself stayed here for a month. There is one small closet for storage but no dressers to store clothes. its a quiet neighborhood with a brewery and bar within walking distance. Unfortunately had a noisy upstairs neighbor but otherwise was a pleasant stay. Blair is very responsive and very accommodating.


August 2024 5.00

All in all very good. Very responsive host! Very clean and well stocked kitchen and bathroom. A few minor suggestions like deep clean of upholstery in living room and fixing wobbly bar chairs in next maintenance round.


July 2024 3.00

I really wanted to like it here and for the most part we did. There are just a few things that could’ve been better. There were roach traps inside the living room and plenty of them were outside. I’m sure they were just in there just incase but it still made us feel uneasy. The seating in the living area is very uncomfortable. The chairs at the counter are very wobbly and unstable. If you like being sucked into the bed you would find it comfortable. There’s absolutely no shower space for any products. There were some hairs in the shower as well and some furniture was just pretty dusty/ dirty. There were other people staying within the building and you could hear EVERYTHING. All the talking, laughing, walking and running around, loud music, etc. if too many people are logged into streaming accounts it’s unavailable space is very small, in the photos it looked bigger. The location is OK. Close to downtown. If you only plan on being there to just sleep and be out most of the day it’s ok.

Miy stay in North Carolina was very restful peaceful, beautiful and quiet I loved it


July 2024 5.00

We loved the Navy Nest!! The apartment was neat and very cute. It matched our expectations perfectly. The location however, was even better! We were able to drive a few miles every day to get coffee, and access the beach. Our last evening there, our keypad lock malfunctioned and we were unable to access our apartment. I messaged Blair and within the hour, she ensured me that her and her team would come assist us to fix the problem. They did just that and ensured we were able to access the new key and get into the apartment. We appreciated her timeliness and responsiveness. We will definitely be back!


July 2024 2.00

Unfortunately I would not recommend this airbnb. The biggest problem was cleanliness. There were stains on the bed sheets, there were crumbs all over the floor, and there was wet laundry left in the dryer. I understand that this is not on the host by any means, but rather the cleaning crew. The airbnb is in a great location! Downtown Wilmington, which has a variety of food and things to do, is only a 15 min walk away. Hopefully the host hires a new cleaning crew, and provides extra bed sheets, towels, and blankets in the future.


June 2024 5.00

Extremely responsive and considerate host, as well as a pristine, conveniently located Airbnb within walking distance of beautiful downtown Wilmington. Historical neighborhood with historical markers, museums, and sites that introduce you to the rich culture and vibrant life of Wilmington. I walked from the Airbnb everyday to the waterfront. Very friendly neighbors, and it is a tour of antebellum history if you take the time to explore the area. I work as a trial attorney. The Airbnb is very quiet, so I could conduct Zoom hearings without interruption. Very comfortable bed, and the kitchen has all that you need to cook (as I thoroughly enjoy). Washer/drier supports long-term stays, along with the modern appliances. It is among my finest experiences at an Airbnb, and I travel much of time relying on consistency, safety, and convenience in my surroundings. This Airbnb, and Blair as a host are top notch! Fantastic experience with a great host and property!

January 2024 5.00

Blair was responsive as a host. The place was clean and tidy, close to downtown festivities and not too far from the beach. The place was just like the pictures. I have no complaints.


January 2024 5.00

It was a beautiful, very cozy, felt right at home


January 2024 5.00

I appreciated the updates you did on the one average review you got. Curtain rod is solid. With the location you wouldn’t use it to sit around and do nothing. The couch was perfectly fine.


December 2023 5.00

Blair was such a great host. She was responsive whenever I needed assistance and gave beneficial suggestions. As expected, the place looked exactly like the photos. I felt at home, and I did not want to leave. The peace and comfort I enjoyed is worth every penny. I can't wait to stay there whenever I visit again.


December 2023 5.00

great host. great place to stay. 2nd time I've stayed with Blair. recommend it.


December 2023 5.00

Very nice and clean place to stay while I was in town. Having access to Netflix is very nice when out of town!


November 2023 5.00

The perfect place for me to stay while visiting family. Perfectly supplied and homey.


November 2023 5.00

Cozy apartment in a very convenient area. The host was very communicative.


November 2023 5.00

A great place to stay in Wilmington! Walkable to a few places and a short drive to so many restaurants and bars. Would recommend!


October 2023 5.00

Perfect place to stay if you plan on being out around the town the majority of your stay! Just a short drive from downtown or the beach!


October 2023 5.00

Nice place. Cozy. Very friendly and responsive host. Would stay again when visiting the area


September 2023 5.00

I had a lovely time at Blair’s place. She was great to communicate with and very helpful with anything I needed. The home is beautifully decorated and arranged, makes great use of its space, and was clean as well as inviting. The kitchen is awesome; fully equipped and well stocked with a nice assortment of tea☺️ The location is excellent, centrally located to most everything you need and want in Wilmington, from downtown to the River Walk to a variety of bars & restaurants to the airport. It is walking distance to a great local coffee shop called Folks Café, and about a 20 minute drive to the beach. In case you are a light sleeper or more sensitive, please just note that the walls are thin so if there are neighbors upstairs, you will definitely hear them walking around. Overall, I did feel at home, enjoyed the location, and am grateful for my stay. Thank you Blair🥰


September 2023 3.00

Pros: -Clean (except for oven) -Comfortable bed -Decent location -Provided some comforts, such as tea and Splenda, Foil, creamer, a throw -Decent toilet paper and paper towels -Easy to access Cons: -Not much space for toiletries or clothes -You hear everything from upstairs - every footstep and convo -Shower items are not marked, so we bought soap -No place to hang towels while showering, so we hung them over the curtain rod, which fell several times -No bthrm fan, so it gets and stays very wet -Chair and futon uncomfortable Other things to note: -Though an exception was not made for a refund when my father passed, they did allow a date change. -coffee pods were strange flavors (like coconut), no plain -Not enough room on the bdrm floor for both a suitcase and a dog bed -No toaster -No pot holders -very small 4 nights was way too long for us to feel comfortable here. Investing in a comfy couch, luggage rack and soundproofing would go a long way.


September 2023 5.00

Blair was a great host and the room was very nice, updated, and clean. Was the perfect spot for what we needed on our trip to NC! There are a couple good food spots / breweries within walking distance, and a short drive to the river walk which is great! I would recommend this room to anyone looking to stay in the Wilmington area for its amazing location, and I did really enjoy that the room has a kitchen that you can use to cook instead of eating out!


September 2023 5.00

The views of the inlet and wetlands were beautiful. We could have spent our entire vacation just sitting on the deck. Unfortunately during our stay my husband ended up in the hospital for emergency surgery so I unexpectedly needed to extend my stay in Wilmington. Blake was wonderful; she made it possible for me to relocate in the area until my husband came out of the hospital. Highly recommend property and hostess.


September 2023 5.00

Great space at a great location. it gave us everything we needed for our weekend trip and a plus that we could have our fur baby.


September 2023 5.00

i like this place and i will be back for summer vacation highly recommend
