Amazing Vacation

We had such an amazing stay at this property! The location is absolutely perfect! The condo was exactly as listed, clean, and the view was unbeatable. We loved being able to see the clear blue waters from the entire living space. We also loved having a pool and we ended up spending time in the pool almost every day. The beach is a close walk and it was so nice having a space to keep all our beach supplies down by the beach access. This condo complex has thought of everything! Linda was a great host and we will definitely be back!

Superb location/Stunning view

Had a wonderful stay at this top floor condo right across the bridge on the beach. Everything was sparkling clean, the kitchen was stocked with condiments and utensils-- and the view was magnificent. Linda was accessible and responsive, and we enjoyed ourselves so much we extended our stay. We will definitely be back.

Station One stay

We absolutely loved this condo on the beach. It was clean well appointed and our host, Linda, was easy to reach and made sure condo was well stocked with paper products etc. The best parts: The gorgeous view from the great room and master and the incredibly comfortable master bed. We can't wait to stay there again.

Wonderful

It was perfect from beginning to end: our host permitted us to check in early; we enjoyed relaxing on the balcony, walking on the beach, and taking advantage of the proximity to restaurants and activities. Nice to go to sleep with the sound of the waves!

Memorial Day Weekend

This condo is beautiful, right on the beach, and close to everything in town. We stayed here with our 2 year old and it was perfect for the three of us. The condo was much more spacious than expected. Being centrally located was great. We could wake up and walk to many restaurants, which our daughter loved! We weren’t able to enjoy a lot of amenities because the weather was not on our side but we have already said we’d love to come back!

Awesome place in awesome location

The condo is super clean and very nicely updated. We loved the porch overlooking the beach.I didn't realize that the listed washer and dryer were not actually in the unit (maybe I missed that somewhere on the listing), but was disappointed about that. The laundry is actually a communal room on the floor and requires quarters. We ended up not using them as a result but definitely would have used them if they'd been in the unit.We found the TV a little hard to use. We tried logging in to one of our streaming services but the app wouldn't load on the TV. Netflix wouldn't work either. It wasn't a big deal though because we didn't spend much time watching TV.We LOVED that we could walk to restaurants, shops, ice cream, grocery store. We didn't use our car once!The pool and surrounding pool furniture is very nice. We loved that the pool has an old an school 8ft deep end.We had a little trouble figuring out where to go at check-in to find the lockbox but didn't take us too long.I was shocked how crowded the beach was but that's just my own ignorance probably since it was memorial day weekend. I really liked that the beach had lifeguards and emergency vehicles were there as well in case of emergency.Overall awesome place and we would definitely return!

Pristine oceanfront 2 BR, 2 Ba condo ideal for family vacation

Our family of 4 enjoyed a long weekend at the “ Nauti Dolphin” in the Station One community at Wrightsville Beach. We were there to tour UNC-Wilmington with our high schooler. The amenities include tennis courts, pool, and beach access. It was easy to unload our bags to a luggage cart and use the elevator to the top (8th floor). This condo has been updated with new furniture, floors, bathrooms and a fully equipped kitchen should you need to prepare meals. The ocean front views allowed us to see a whale (7:30am) and several dolphins (all times of day) during our stay. The beach was not crowded (likely due to chilly temperatures in February) but we did not bring beach chairs or beach towels. Otherwise some Brave surfers were fun to watch on the waves. Laundromat facilities are available in the building, but we did not need to use those during this trip. This is not a hotel, so bring your own toiletries. This is an excellent choice for spring break or summer vacation weekly stays, or a short weekend. My teenagers appreciated having their own beds in the guest bedroom. The leather recliner was perfect for afternoon naps as well.

Property was great. The condo was clean and ideal for our family of four. Access to the beach and pool were great. We found the location to be ideal for walking to shops, restaurants and more. We were blessed with great weather. My only suggestion is to provide a key fob instead of a key. It would have made going in and out of the property faster and easier. Not a big deal at all. I’d rent this again and again.
