The space is cute with the upstairs loft just right for our teen sisters (stairs would be too steep for older adults). Very well stocked kitchen. Both indoor and outdoor showers which was welcome after our beach days. And convenient to beaches, restaurants and markets.

We loved our stay over Labor Day weekend. Beds were clean and comfortable, and the entire house was cute, bright and beautiful. Air conditioning and laundry were great to have and the kitchen was well appointed. Excellent communication with the owners!

Great little spot to spend the long Mother’s Day weekend with the family. Secluded and private but still close to the main routes of travel and the water. We would love to return in the future!

The starfish cottage was great for our group of 3 (plus dog). Perfect location to show 2 West Coast visitors a variety of Cape towns and activities. Aruna was super helpful, and provided a list of places to eat and things to do. We would definitely return to this location.

Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place in the cape for four adults and a couple of kids. Well represented by the pictures, with everything clean when we arrived. The hosts are great, easy to reach and very nice. The backyard really feels like you're out in the woods.

We had a blast at Starfish cottage! Two couples and two kids (ages 9 & 12) who absolutely loved sleeping upstairs in the loft. This place is fully stocked for all your beach vacation needs. Everything comes as advertised and the location is walking distance to anything you’d need in Dennis Port. The outdoor shower make for a stellar touch as well.

The Cottage had all the accommodations needed for our vacation on the Cape. Plenty of room in the house for the five adults and two young kids, well stocked with the everyday necessities. Close to the beaches, restaurants, shops and of course ice cream. Backyard well furnished with chairs, fire pit, hammock and outdoor shower. Quiet area to spend a relaxing week.

My two sons, my daughter-in-law, my wife, and I, and a dog decided a year ago to vacation together on Cape Cod this summer. After searching for a property listing, we settled on this cottage. It was everything we had hoped it would be. There is plenty of space, including an outdoor sitting area. It was clean and ready for us when we arrived. There was great communication between the owner and myself during the visit. It is close to several beaches and on a street without any traffic. I would give it my highest recommendation and would not hesitate to stay there again in the coming years.

I would recommend taking pictures/videos of the property so that there is proof of the condition when you check in and out.

I visited Starfish Cottage with my daughter, who has severe disabilities, and our golden retriever. The cottage was amazingly comfortable. Everything inside appeared new, including the very comfortable mattresses and the large, luxury washer dryer. There were lovely touches everywhere I looked, like little twinkly lights adorning the fireplace. I would definitely recommend a relaxing stay at Starfish Cottage!

The cottage was cute, clean. Not a fan of plastic bowls and plates. The bed frames need to be updated. MA weather is on the dam side, there were 2 days of rain during our stay; the cottage feels dam. Over all, we enjoyed and made the best vacation for the rest of our week in MA.

My family had a wonderful, relaxing vacation at Starfish Cottage. We enjoyed excursions either walking to the beach or riding on the bikes provided for our pleasure. The weather was perfect allowing us to take advantage of the fire pit and hammock in the backyard. The oversized picnic table was was a great place to enjoy food, family and long conversations into the night. We all had a fantastic time and hopefully we can return soon. Thank you for making our stay so comfortable and enjoyable. ❤️

We enjoyed our stay. The home is situated on a dead-end street. Quite quiet, except for the occasional loud guests at the inn behind the property. The home itself is wonderful. Kitchen is stocked, comfortable beds, couches, and chairs. Aruna is a high-quality host. 10 min walk to the beach. Close to the shops of Dennis Port. GG

The Starfish Cottage was a wonderful escape. Nestled at the end of a quiet street, it gave us everything we were looking for -- a fun place for the kids within walking distance of the best ice cream joint in Cape Cod and a park. Several quiet beaches nearby and other family attractions. Next time, we'll stay closer to home instead of trying long day trips. The peacefulness of Dennisport is all we needed. Aruna answered emailed questions within seconds but never hovered over us. She is the perfect host and caretaker of this unique property.

10/10

This stay at Starfish Cottage was fantastic! Easy check in process and the most thorough. I didn’t have a ton of questions and Aruna was extremely helpful. When we did have some troubles with the fire pit, Aruna answered immediately and then sent her husband over early the next day to fix it. We were so impressed! The location was amazing. Easy walk to 3 different beaches. We went to Inman St mostly though and it was small, not crowded, and clean water/sand. Aruna also has beach chairs, bikes, wagon for beach equipment, noodles, etc. The AC was A+ during this hot time as well. We forgot the house only had a charcoal grill but we figured it out and it was a learning moment with the family! lol Mosquitos are kicking in this area so make sure to use the bug spray the host provides :) Most importantly: I brought my 6 month old puppy with us. We brought our own couch covers, bed, etc., and she thrived in the house AND lovely backyard. However, just a reminder that it’s not completely fenced in and there’s plenty of bunnies around….so tie your pup up on a long leash to the picnic table and you should be fine lol There is a tiny home basically 5 steps from the fire pit but we rarely saw the guests in there and it wasn’t a bother at all :) Just a reminder that this is a beach cottage and not a modern mansion. There will be dust/sand and the decor matches the beach vibes! We loved it here and will definitely come back :)
