Fairfield by Marriott Inn & Suites Wilmington Wrightsville Beach is our Budget pick in Wilmington, North Carolina. It suits drivers, families and anyone who wants a tidy, well-run base without paying mid-range prices.
The facility list covers the practical things: free parking, a pool, a gym, family rooms, free Wi-Fi and air conditioning. Guests also rate the front desk staff as professional, friendly and helpful.
Skip it if you expect to walk to the beach, or if a varied breakfast is important to you. It also ranked 8 of 10 on guest score in our sample, so higher-rated options exist.
Location and getting around
The address is 307 Eastwood Road, Wilmington. The location score is 8.9 out of 10.
Despite the name, Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina is about 7 km away, roughly 88 minutes on foot. That is far, so you will need a car, taxi or public transport to get there. The walking time is a straight-line estimate and has not been verified.
Our data lists no other nearby landmarks, so check a map for distances to the places you plan to visit.
What guests say
The score is 8.4 out of 10 from 429 reviews. That placed it joint eighth among the 10 eligible properties in the sample, so it is a solid score rather than a standout one.
Cleanliness gets the most praise: guests describe tidy, fresh-smelling and well-maintained spaces. Staff at the front desk come next, described as professional and friendly.
Breakfast is the main weakness. Hot food is available, but the selection is sometimes limited or basic. Listed styles are continental, American and buffet.
