About this property

High on a dune, great ocean views, spacious home, BHI

Sea Star is a fabulous South Beach cottage that would be an ideal spot for your next family vacation. Sea Star offers all the modern conveniences you'll need while vacationing on the island, including new flat-screen SMART televisions. This home interior blends with outdoor views of the sky and sea. Perched on a bluff in Killegray Ridge, this home is high enough to catch cooling ocean breezes and provide great views of the dunes of Killegray and Flora's Bluff. The spectacular Atlantic Ocean provides a relaxing backdrop for extended porch visits. The beach is easily accessible by a private neighborhood boardwalk located across the street and is a mere two-minute stroll away from the cottage. The first floor has a fully equipped kitchen adjoining a large living and dining room that will easily accommodate the entire family. The living area extends to a large covered front porch, excellent for observation, conversation, and relaxation. The picnic table on the additional back deck offers a beautiful place for families to dine. Next to the kitchen is a bedroom suite with a queen bed and one set of bunks, a full bath, and a front porch. The primary bedroom is upstairs, offering a king, full bath, and a porch featuring sweeping ocean views, including some glimpses of legendary Frying Pan Shoals. Down the hall from the primary suite is another bedroom with a queen, a set of bunks, and a full bath. A Crofter Cottage is located across the back deck of the main house, next to the outdoor shower and picnic table.

The Crofter Cottage offers a king bed, full bath, coffee maker, and wine/beverage cooler. New in 2021 luggage racks, portable in-home doggie gate, portable in-home desk, picnic bench, gas grill arriving in March, built-in beverage fridge, and more. Sea Star is an excellent choice for single or multiple families.

Sleeps 12 (max.). 4 bedrooms (1K-1K-1Q,1BB-1Q,BB). 4 full baths. 1 1 half bath. (1) 4-passenger cart. (1) 6-passenger cart. Friday/Friday summer check-in and check-out day. 5:30 p.m. arrival/10:30 a.m. departure.

5 Star Review for SEA STAR
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have rented a number of houses on Bald Head Island over the years and SEA STAR was by far the BEST! The views, the layout, the decorating, and the amenities were all top notch. We love to cook and the kitchen had every appliance and utensil we needed. We started off each day with a cup of coffee on one of the three balconies overlooking the shore. Every afternoon we had a glass of wine while we watched the sun set. We are already planning to stay at SEA STAR again next year as it was truly a 5 STAR experience!

Sea Star--March 2021
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: All good expect for work being conducted next door (workers started at 730 every morning) and work on beach (work conducted throughout the night...bulldozers and front loaders beeping as they backed up). Very hard to actually connect to speak with anyone from Intercoastal. Sent emails for services that weren't available (urgent care), repeated asked for signed license agreement after submission.
