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!

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.

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!

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.
