This was our 2nd year at this property. I traveled with my husband our two kids and their spouses and our 4 year old and 8 month old grand sons. The house is spacious and the location was perfect for us. Close enough to walk to town but far enough from the hustle and bustle. Host Jeff was very responsive throughout our stay. I highly recommend this beautiful house and property.

The house was beautiful! The kitchen is a dream! Close enough to the beach and main attractions but far enough away to enjoy the quiet and calm. 100% recommend.

A beautiful house, well-stocked with everything we needed (except sheets & linens, go to linenladies.com for that). Jeff & Donna were quick and responsive to anything we needed.We will definitely rent here again the next time we stay in Cape May.

Purple Starfish

The Purple Starfish is a charming, beautiful, and well-appointed home. The rooms are spacious and the kitchen is magnificent. The Washington Street Mall and numerous restaurants are within walking or biking distance as well as the beach. You will not be disappointed with a visit to Cape May and the Purple Starfish.

Everything we were hoping for

We have been staying in cape May for many years and this is by far the best house we have stayed at to date. Myself and my husband as well as my grown children and my 3 year old grandson all agree we think we found the place we should stay at every year. The house has everything we needed and more. The location was close enough to walk to shops and restaurants as well as the beach but far enough that you felt you weren’t in the middle of the hustle and bustle. The house was beautifully updated and decorated and felt like home. The host was very responsive.

House is lovely and worked quite well for a 10 guests bachelorette weekend. Good location, close to everything except the crowds and chaos that some other areas have. Situated on a noisy road with lots of traffic. We had a few minor issues which were addressed immediately.

A beautiful house

This house is beautiful, big, very well kept, and clean. We had a great stay. but here are a few notable points that may be helpful to others: 1) house is best for adults/older kids. we came with two 1 year olds and it worked out better than I feared but not ideal. The walk to the beach is probably doable for adults but with a family you still need to drive. 2) the listing is clear about this but I did not like having to bring our own linens, particularly after having to pay such a large cleaning fee. The checkout to-do list was also a little more onerous than I would prefer. 3) house layout is a little weird. Only 2 toilets but 3 showers + a tub in a bedroom which also sleeps 5 people. The picture show this clearly but it’s confusing when you are looking at them.
