The Salty Peach, a haven for two in the heart of Wilmington, NC. This chic studio harmonizes comfort and style for an memorable stay. Step into our inviting sitting space, a comfortable sanctuary beckoning you to relax after soaking up the sun on the beach or immersing yourself in the vibrant energy of downtown. Our thoughtfully equipped kitchen awaits, boasting modern amenities and essentials like coffee pods, creamer,& sugar. Drift off to sleep in the plush king bed & rejuvenate in the ensuite shower.

You'll have access to the guest unit and the sitting area out front. The backyard is a shared space with the "cowboy pool" and my two dogs, Hamilton and Boitano.

While I live on the property in the other unit with my two dogs, we keep to ourselves. We will give a hello if we see you, but it is possible we will never encounter each other. My dogs will try to convince you to let them visit you, but I prefer to keep the guest unit pet-complimentary.

The Salty Peach is located in the middle of town making getting to the beach or downtown painless with a 4-6 miles/ 10-15 min drive. Also close by you can find- the mall, access to the River to Sea Bikeway/ walking path, coffee stores, and Reggie's.

Parking for two cars is available in the driveway section on the right side of the home. Please do not block the driveway entry/exit.

While there is central AC and heating in the entire home, there are no AC/ heat controls in the guest unit. The unit has a space heater, ceiling fan, and portable fan for those who would like to adjust the temperature slightly. If you reach out to me between 7 am- 8 pm then I would be glad to make adjustments to the central controls within reason. My goal is for you to be cozy!

Getting the best Wilmington vacation home experience:

Finding the best rental value:

• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved early. Booking your rental property up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitor guides contain discounts for local tours and attractions.

Choosing and booking your prefect Southport rental:

• Start by choosing your trip dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. The Salty Peach, A Sweet Retreat has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is normally available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property management company before booking your rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to work out what configuration is suitable for your group.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More considerations:

• We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of problems.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, record any problem areas when you arrive. Make contact with the property manager immediately to report your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible source for finding the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all of your things. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a great time? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
