What Our Guests Are Saying
-
Overall, we had a nice stay, but the listing was a bit misleading. The photos made the property and surrounding area look much nicer than they were in person. The beach chairs provided were worn and partially broken, the kitchen was very minimally stocked, and the charcoal grill was dirty and full of wet charcoal, making it unusable without cleaning it first. The bathrooms also could have been cleaner upon arrival. While we still enjoyed our stay, there were several details that didn’t match our expectations based on the listing.
-
Beautiful house with LOTS of space. Great for a family traveling to the area or 2-3 couples. Bathrooms are nice and good sized. Neighborhood is walkable with older homes. Not far from river and downtown happenings.
-
Loved everything about this house! Great neighborhood and close to everything. The front porch was a great place to relax. We will definitely book again!
-
We had an absolutely amazing graduation weekend spent celebrating our daughter. The house was perfect for a small get together after. Kitchen has everything we could need. The home was spotless and had extra special touches throughout 🩷 Thank you for everything. I was worried when we had to move houses prior to our check in since the other property sold. But everything was amazing. Thank you for being great host. I appreciate everything

Our family had a great time! Everything was as described and felt like a home away from home!!!
-
Nice location for quick trips into Wilmington. But the bungalow bathrooms, living area , exterior and bathrooms were not thoroughly cleaned. Human hair on bathroom walls and in tub, dog hair on floors. Insects, spiders and a cockroach in the living room really made this place a disappointment. That along with the uncomfortable furniture really would not give us a desire to return to this location.

Great little cottage/bungalow. I highly recommend it for a small group of friends or a family with kids. Well appointed, clean and very cozy.

Our family of four (four adults) had an amazing time and stay at Mary's Bungalow! The space was clean and very organized, the layout was perfect, and everyone had their own space. The home was just as described but seemed larger and more spacious! We loved having the beach chairs as well as the "nice" essentials that were provided for us. It's a definite must-stay! I'm sure we will be back!!!
