Everything inside has been refreshed with modern finishes, new furnishings, and a clean, uncluttered style designed for comfort. Perfect for couples or solo travelers, The Jewel is a peaceful hideaway in a convenient Wilmington location. Important Note: This is a triplex, and while the building has been beautifully updated, sound can travel between units. Most guests find it quiet and comfortable, but if you’re a very light sleeper or require total silence, this may not be the best fit. We want you to have the right expectations so your stay is perfect. The Jewel sits right next to the Nir Family YMCA, Wilmington’s flagship branch. Guests can purchase a day pass and enjoy full access to the pool, sauna, hot tub, weights, cardio machines, spin bikes, and group fitness classes. Wallace Park and Port City Java are just a short drive away. Nearby favorites include Indochine, Whole Foods, and a variety of cafés and breweries. Downtown Wilmington and the Riverwalk are less than 5 minutes by car, and Wrightsville Beach is under 15 minutes when you're ready for sand and surf. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the apartment: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car recommended ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Garden ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa ### Things to do - Basketball nearby - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Kayaking nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 350 square feet ## Similar properties ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/122000000/121960000/121957400/121957319/7d5ae103.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Studio condo with ocean views, pool, deck, & central AC Surf City - Pool - Kitchen - Free WiFi - Air conditioning [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-08&endDate=2026-02-09&selected=121957319&PinnedHotelID=121957319&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/118000000/117520000/117512400/117512390/77ad4077.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Downtown Loft, Cozy clean downtown Wilmington Historic District - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi CA $78 CA $398 total includes taxes & fees Jan 26 - Jan 27 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-26&endDate=2026-01-27&selected=117512390&PinnedHotelID=117512390&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![1 bedroom, iron/ironing board, WiFi, bed sheets](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/121000000/120610000/120601500/120601458/67e172aa.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Gem – New & Wilmington Hideaway Wilmington - Kitchen - Air conditioning - Outdoor Space - Microwave 10 Exceptional 1 review CA $66 CA $382 total includes taxes & fees Feb 17 - Feb 18 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-17&endDate=2026-02-18&selected=120601458&PinnedHotelID=120601458&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/121000000/120800000/120798300/120798243/w1988h1414x12y0-037cc60a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Quiet 1 Bedroom Guest House in Wilmington, NC Wilmington - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-08&endDate=2026-02-09&selected=120798243&PinnedHotelID=120798243&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/75000000/74740000/74730900/74730806/bdce72f2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Savannah Suite on Front Wilmington Historic District - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 2 reviews CA $82 CA $404 total includes taxes & fees Jan 26 - Jan 27 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-26&endDate=2026-01-27&selected=74730806&PinnedHotelID=74730806&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33970000/33965700/33965621/20c455ba.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### "Sand Dollar Suites" suite 1: A short stroll from our sandy shores!
