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!

Retreat

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.
