The space
Our 1940's guesthouse is located in the heart of downtown. We have tried to maintain the historic appeal with slight modern renovations. This guesthouse is only accessible by climbing 13 stairs. If pre- arranged we can help assist with bags needs. Downtown city noise is to be expected from time to time as well as airplane noise. We have keypads installed for effortless arrivals.

Other things to note
The windows are not meant to be open. Do to there age and layers of paint, opening the windows can be dangerous. If you would like some fresh air, we have plenty of outdoor space to enjoy. Abiding by this will ensure that the home stays cool if you wish, and the bugs stay out.

How to find the best Wilmington vacation property experience:

Cost saving strategies:

Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To find the best value, shift your vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warm temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach 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 your favorite beach.
Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your family qualifies for a price reduction.
Booking websites frequently offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
Look for your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guides contain offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Selecting the best rental home in Wilmington:

Start by choosing trip dates and a budget.
Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Lavender Guesthouse - A Private Oasis Downtown. has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before you book the rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly rental. Get information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
Looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.
Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

Tips to have a smooth stay:

We recommend storing the owner's information in your smartphone.
Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
Protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would back home.
At Check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible source for finding the best local beaches.
Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Go through the property a final time and look for damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
Did you have a wonderful time? Many rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
