Wilmington is a city located in southeastern North Carolina and is situated along the coast between the Atlantic Ocean and Cape Fear River. The area was originally home to indigenous people, and the first Europeans arrived in the 16th century. Due to its proximity to water, Wilmington has long been a port city. Today, there is a range of attractions to explore. You can learn about the history of the city at Cape Fear Museum of History and Science or have some fun splashing around at Jungle Rapids Family Fun Park. And, sometimes you just want to have a bit of fun at home. So we’ve put together a list of the best Airbnbs with pool in Wilmington, North Carolina. Read on and check out the options.
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and access to pool. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 12, 2024.
1. Three-bedroom home with an amazing outdoor space (from USD 250)
This home features a phenomenal backyard. One of its main draws is the pool, which is the perfect spot to cool off on a hot day. There are chairs for lounging around the pool and even a covered area where you can escape for some shade. The covered area includes a table, which is perfect as there is a wood oven which makes it easy to cook your meals outdoors.
The home is located slap bang in the middle of the port city, so a stay here will put you less than a 10-minute walk away from local restaurants, breweries and attractions such as Hugh MacRae Park. After a long day out, you can relax your muscles with a soak in the private hot tub.
