This is our second year staying at the Starfish Retreat and I hope it's not our last. The space is perfect for a large family or multiple families. Everyone could gather together or retreat to their own room. We ate all our meals at home so the large table gave us room for everyone to sit down. The workspace in the kitchen allowed us to prep the meal, walk around, chat with those at the table and spread out. We used the grill and it was hit,The location is also perfect for us. It's close enough to the boardwalk to walk but far enough away it wasn't so busy. The very short walk to the beach was a huge plus. We could come back home for forgotten items or if we needed a break from the sun.The host was extremely easy to reach if we needed anything and checked on us once or twice. Just enough to make us feel welcome but not too much to be intrusive.Overall, we had an amazing stay and hope to return.

They answered questions instantly and when coffee maker stopped working a new one was delivered within a coupe of hours even though there were two Keurig as well in the home beach was right across the street with easy access our family had a most memorable stay and we highly recommend this listing.

The two families in our group had a wonderful stay at Starfish Retreat II. We used it as a base to visit family in the area over a long weekend. The house is clean and well stocked and met all our needs. The host, Nasser was easy to communicate with and was very responsive. The location of Starfish II Retreat is also excellent with the beach being so close as well as many restaurants and the boardwalk. We enjoyed walking to get coffee every morning during our stay. We would definitely book again when we visit the area!

This year for our annual family beach trip we stayed here at Starfish Retreat II. It was a spacious three story house and well accommodated our group of 11 adults 3 children. The kitchen was very well stocked and set up for a group our size, since we made all our meals there. At one point during our stay we encountered a small inconvenience which we told the host and right away he reached out and made things right! The beach access is just a little ways down the street so it was nice not to have to walk far especially with little children. The driveway can hold 4 vehicles which was convenient. Overall a wonderful place to stay with a large group and would definitely recommend it!

Nick and Sophie, made sure my family and I enjoyed our stay. The house layout was beautiful. We spent of our time in the kitchen. The kitchen was a dream. Their customers service through out this entire process has been impeccable. The attention to details and the well being of their guest made them the best host. We will definitely come back. This trip was a working vacation. I enjoyed everything about the kitche.

Starfish Retreat II

We had a great time at your house and it was exactly as listed. We travelled with 2 families and there was plenty of room for each person to have their own space. The kitchen and main floor area was spacious, and we appreciated the large table so we could all sit together. The kitchen was loaded with utensils and even some basic cooking supplies (tin foil for example). We also found the small couch next to the window was a surprising draw and someone was always in it reading or people watching. We played Xbox games on the TV upstairs and everyone was able to have a place on the couch.The best part was the location. Literally 2 houses to the beach and less than a half mile to the Carolina Beach boardwalk and restaurants. The only time we had to drive was to hit the grocery store. We had a fantastic trip and hope to be able to stay at the house again in the future.
