We booked for a quick getaway for our daughters 7th birthday. Unit was just as pictured. Pool was great with it being heated. My kids very much enjoyed it, even when it was 60 degrees outside. Neighbors were friendly. It was also a very quick walk to the beach, which we also enjoyed time there. We had issues with the internet, but really didn't affect much as we had our phones and tablets we could use. All in all, everything was great and we will book here again and with the same host next time!

Stay at Starfish Haven

Our time at Starfish Haven was exactly what we imagined. Adorable condo, perfect for our little family getaway. The space was clean, beachfully decorated, but not over the top. The owner thought of everything! Pool is just a few steps from the generous front porch, and parking is literally 15 steps from the front door. It doesn't get any better! Hope to rent this place again next year!

Great property!

We love this property and unit. It is just across from the heated pool, which is very heated, as we were there when the temps were in the 50's and it felt great! The unit itself fits our family of 5 perfectly and everything was clean and they give you plenty of toiletries, at least for our stay! Alene is great to connect with and fast at responding!

great location, not so great smell

Let me start by saying the booking process was so easy and fast. I didn’t have any problems finding it and everyone around there was super nice. The first thing that hit us when we walked through the door, was mold. Which kind of shocked us because the place looked very clean and kept up with. No signs of any kind of most visible to us, but it reeked of it. We opened the downstairs window and put a fan blowing out, as well as opened the door upstairs and put another fan blowing out. It didn’t help though. We literally slept with the covers over our heads because it was giving us all headaches. We even went to the store and got sprays(also didn’t do much). The beds were super comfortable. The couches and pillows looked like they needed a good cleaning. Overall, could have been worse but could have been better. I definitely wouldn’t book again and this location just off of the mold smell.
