This host perfectly knows how to create an amazing vacation home rental experience! The Myrtle Manor was so perfect for our family vacation! Wonderfully decorated rooms, clean linens, comfy living room with fireplace and blankets, comfortable beds, plentifully stocked kitchen, bluetooth speakers, wonderful yard & parking... Everything was just perfect! We walked all over historical Wilmington from this location, and felt such a connection to the feel of the city. I cannot recommend this house enough!

We stayed at this home for a baseball tournament weekend in Wilmington, and it was absolutely perfect! The house was incredibly spacious and beautifully decorated throughout. The updated kitchen and master bathroom were stunning and felt so luxurious.My favorite spot by far was the screened-in porch — such a peaceful place to relax after long days at the fields. We stayed with another baseball family, and everyone was equally impressed with how comfortable and well-designed the home was.We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and would definitely book again!

My wife, daughter, and I had such a wonderful stay while moving our daughter into UNCW. Having previously stayed at the Vaiden Inn, we already knew how much love and thought the hosts put in their properties and Myrtle Manor continues that high quality standard and took our breath away.From the beginning, Jessica’s communication made the whole booking experience seamless. She went above and beyond with local recommendations (including walking distances), so we felt well prepared before we arrived. At check-in, we were greeted with a handwritten card, snacks, and the bedrooms/bathrooms were stocked with luxurious towels, mints, and soaps. The home perfectly blends historic charm with modern upgrades. The decor was a true highlight, and every room was spacious, inviting, and included all the lil extras, hair dryers, toothbrushes, etc. The beds/pillows were very comfortable and we were all well rested for each day.The coffee bar had an impressive array of assorted coffee pods and syrups. It was such an appreciated touch especially for someone whose day runs on coffee, especially with our busy plans. The kitchen also had everything needed, down to the spices.Our favorite spot was by far the screened-in porch. Surrounded by flowers and greenery, it was a peaceful retreat.What was planned as a hectic trip turned into a relaxing and memorable stay. We’re already planning our return. We highly recommend Myrtle Manor, it’s a truly special place in the heart of Wilmington.
