Jimmy's Hideaway #131 Sound Front, Private Dock, Hot Tub, Pet-Friendly!

Look no further than Jimmy’s Hideaway #131, a Landmark Vacation Rentals home, to experience that heavenly beach getaway you’ve always dreamed of. Nestled on Wrightsville Beach’s Harbor Island, this waterfront home combines breathtaking Banks Channel views with an updated sense of coastal refinement to create heaven on earth. This luxurious home offers 5 appointed guest bedrooms and 5 full bathrooms that offer an upscale sophistication within a relaxed soundside serenity. A private boat dock provides deep water access and a mini beach where guests can enjoy playing in the water, soaking up the sun, fishing, or paddleboarding. Blissful outdoor spaces await guests with expansive elevated decks accompanied by luxurious outdoor furniture and a gas tabletop fire pit. After a long day on the water, relax by soaking in the private hot tub. Bring your four-legged family member and let them run and play in the fenced-in backyard (an additional non-refundable fee of $300 per dog applies, with a maximum of two dogs allowed). Walk to the public beach access down the street or to one of Wrightsville’s many wonderful restaurants, bars, shops, or park. There is a Traeger Grill available for the guests' use.

Inside, this marvelously updated home has an open-floor plan living area with hardwood flooring throughout and windows spanning the space that allow you to soak in the coastal scenery from any vantage point. Guests will enter through the ground floor where there are two doors leading to each garage.

Seating for six is found at the bar as well as an additional eight at the dining table. The living room is detailed by coastal chic décor, comfortable seating and custom built-ins surrounding a flat-screen Smart TV. Step onto the porch and soak in sprawling views of the channel. Located on this floor is the first bedroom which has a king sized bed, a Smart TV, and deck access to the front of the house. A hall bathroom is shared between this bedroom and the main living area.

The house is spacious, beautifully decorated, and in a great location within walking distance of the beach, shops and restaurants. My only suggestions would be some lighting around the hot tub area, because there is none, and replacing all the pillows on the beds. They are very old and very uncomfortable. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again, but I’ll bring my own pillow.

House was well stocked with everything we needed to make family meals. Washer and dryer worked great. Friends that lived in area visited by boat. Can't say anything bad about the view. Had an issue with AC on 2nd floor but was repaired right away.

Great House- Great Location

I loved the layout of this house for a large group. We hosted the groomsmen for our son's wedding and loved having the dock, hot tub, deck space, and more! The house is furnished beautifully. We were walking distance from all the fun in Wrightsville Beach. The only note would be that we did not have enough linens/towels to use initially for a party of ten.

Awesome location

We had a great stay at this house. The highlights include the location, private dock, covered porches, and space available overall. Unfortunately, we were not notified the elevator was out of service. At 8 months pregnant I was relying on that with all the stairs. There were a few other minor inconveniences such as the ice machine not working and our fire alarm in the master bedroom being detached. The master bathroom shower was gorgeous, but did not drain well at all and there was a ton of standing water. We also had issues with the doors locking properly. The wind blew open several doors, including the master bedroom and patio door in the middle of the night. Overall, it’s a beautiful house and we had a great stay. There were just a few things we’d wish we had updates on before arriving. We would stay here again though without a doubt.
