YOUR HOMEBASE FOR A WILMINGTON FALL GETAWAY
Fall brings out a different side of Wilmington. With cooler temperatures, fewer summer crowds and a more leisurely pace, it’s an ideal time to explore the city’s historic downtown, spend time outdoors and enjoy the beaches without the height-of-summer rush. Conveniently located between Wrightsville Beach and Downtown Wilmington, TownePlace Suites Wilmington offers travelers the flexibility and comforts of home while putting the best of the area within easy reach.

Whether staying for a night, a week or longer, guests can settle into spacious suite-style accommodations with full kitchens, start the day with a complimentary hot breakfast buffet, take a dip in the indoor heated pool or work out in the fitness center. And because pets are welcome, four-legged family members can join in on the getaway, too. We caught up with Julia Davis, Sales Manager at TownePlace Suites Wilmington Wrightsville Beach, to find out why fall is the perfect time to visit Wilmington and how guests can make the most of their stay.
Wilmington is a wonderful fall destination, with cooler temperatures, a more relaxed pace and plenty to discover beyond the summer beach season. What makes TownePlace Suites a great home base for experiencing the city this time of year?
Our central location, perfectly situated between Wrightsville Beach and Downtown Wilmington, makes us a great home base for exploring the area. Guests can easily head to the beach, explore downtown or discover one of the many attractions and local businesses throughout Wilmington. Fall is such a beautiful time here because you can enjoy being outside without the heat and crowds of summer. No matter which direction you turn from the hotel, you’re sure to find plenty of things to do.
TownePlace Suites is designed with longer stays and everyday comfort in mind. What amenities or features make the hotel especially appealing for guests planning a fall getaway rather than a quick overnight visit?
Our suite-style rooms are designed to make guests feel at home, with full kitchens that include a refrigerator and stovetop. Having a kitchen gives guests the option to prepare a meal and enjoy a relaxing evening in after a day of exploring. The suites also offer plenty of space to unwind, while complimentary Wi-Fi and in-room streaming services make it easy to relax at the end of the day. Guests can start each morning with our complimentary hot breakfast buffet, providing a convenient way to fuel up before heading out to explore Wilmington. After a day of sightseeing, guests can relax in our indoor heated pool or keep up with their routine in the fitness center. And for those who don’t want to leave their furry companions behind, pets are welcome, making it easy to enjoy a Wilmington getaway together.
For visitors who want to experience Wilmington like a local, what fall activities, restaurants, attractions or hidden gems would you recommend exploring while staying at TownePlace Suites?
We recommend spending some time exploring the small businesses, shops and restaurants Downtown, particularly in the evening when the area has a wonderful energy. Wilmington has so many locally owned businesses worth discovering, and downtown is a great place to wander and see what catches your eye. And, of course, we always recommend grabbing a sweet treat from Boombalatti’s on your way back to the hotel.
Fall is an ideal time to enjoy Wilmington’s combination of city, river and nearby beaches. How can guests make the most of the area’s outdoor experiences during this season?
Fall is a great time to get outside and enjoy some of Wilmington’s beautiful parks and trails. Greenfield Lake Park is one of our recommendations. The trails are beautiful and offer a great way to spend some time outdoors, and guests can also enjoy fun water activities such as pedal boats. With Wrightsville Beach just a short drive away, guests can take advantage of the cooler weather for a beach walk, waterfront outing or simply enjoying the scenery. And after a day outdoors, the hotel’s indoor heated pool is a great place to unwind.
With UNCW nearby and Downtown Wilmington easily accessible, the hotel also appeals to families, business travelers and guests staying for an extended period. How does the location add to the overall experience?
Our location makes it easy for guests to experience Wilmington while having a comfortable place to return to at the end of the day. We’re close to UNCW, which makes us convenient for visiting families, and our proximity to Downtown Wilmington means guests can easily enjoy the city’s restaurants, shops and attractions. For those traveling for business or an extended stay, being close to local businesses and healthcare facilities is another advantage. We also offer a 24-hour business center, fitness center and indoor heated pool, giving guests amenities that make it easy to balance work, relaxation and recreation.
