Great service.Posted on Google Laila CastellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Emina from Hourglass Concierge is the BEST!! She has managed our home for last 2 years seamlessly. I am always amazed how organized and efficient her team is. She is always one step ahead of me and being far away from our Carolina Beach home I take such comfort knowing Emina is right around the corner. She is such a kind and passionate person and I feel so lucky to have her manage our home!!! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will take care of their home like it is their own. ❤️Posted on Google Scott HallTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

We have used Hourglass Concierge ever since we bought our second home in Carolina Beach. Emina and her team are very reliable and professional, and we are extremely happy with the services they provide at very reasonable prices. Highly recommended!!Posted on Google Ali MillerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve had a great experience with Hourglass Concierge. They are reliable, detail-oriented, and always proactive with our second-home needs. Home checks, prep before visits, and coordination with vendors have all been seamless.Posted on Google Greg LittleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hourglass Concierge is the best. We recently remodeled our kitchen and Emina was our eyes and ears while the remodel took place. (which turned out fabulous). She always goes above and beyond checking in on our summer home, setting up before we arrive, stocking the kitchen, and checking the utilities. She has been our long distance right hand.Posted on Google Caroline WeingartTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hourglass Concierge has been incredible for our second home in Wilmington. Their fractional estate management model is exactly what we needed—professional, reliable care without the cost of a full-time manager. We’ve used their home watch services regularly, and it gives us complete peace of mind knowing everything is checked and maintained while we’re away. We’ve also had their team handle interior styling, and the results were beautiful—our home feels refreshed, welcoming, and ready every time we arrive. On top of that, their handyman services have been a lifesaver for small repairs and upkeep. Everything is seamless, communication is excellent, and they truly make second-home ownership stress-free. If you’re looking for trusted property care and all-around reliability in Wilmington or Wrightsville Beach, I can’t recommend Hourglass Concierge enough.Posted on Google Dana DaecheTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Emina is GREAT at what she does. She is so organized and genuinely cares about making sure your home is taken care of. Can't recommend her enough!
