If you’ve ever visited Wilmington, N.C., there’s a good chance you’ve seen Wrightsville Beach. The area is quintessential East Coast beach living, with an array of wonderful restaurants and spacious sandy land that backs up to the crashing waves. Surfers often come to take on the notoriously rough and exciting waters, while others choose to head out on a boating excursion. Regardless, if looking for a good staple coastal getaway, Wrightsville Beach is a solid choice.

Getting to the beach is a breeze, as it’s just a short walk away. The price is outstanding, which makes it super cool in its own way.
Hammock Island Lookout
A lot of private room Airbnb‘s offer the basics — a nice place to sleep, and maybe a private restroom. While this listing offers that, it also is just really cool because it sits on top of a funky coastal home. A balcony provides a secluded place for guests to soak up the sun. We also love the colorful and fun surfing décor within the space.
Private Tiny Home in the Woods
Just over the bridge, away from the crowds of Wrightsville Beach is this rustic, “Little House on the Prairie”-style cabin. It has been lovingly equipped with all of the essentials for a comfortable vacation – it even has a bathroom. The kitchen is perfect for making coffee or grilling up a simple dinner, and the loft is so cozy. But you might find yourself torn, wanting to sleep in that big comfy king bed. This is a pet friendly rental, too.
