**Pool Policy: The pool heater will not function well if overnight temps are in the low 50’s or below. The Heater can generally maintain between 10-20 degrees above the outside temperature. Heater availability is dependent on the weather and we’ve historically been able to offer it from April to October (and occasionally in November). We try hard to look at the forecast to see if the heater is an option, but forecasts do change.
Our family had a great week at Holden Beach! Wish Upon a Starfish was a perfect fit for our family and so comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were cozy, and just a short walk to the beach. Everyone loved the heated pool as well a all the extras…pool floats, bikes, beach chairs and wagon, baby dining seat, and even some workout equipment! We highly recommend The Cove, Aunt Irene’s (best cinnamon rolls ever), and Provisions. We even did a chartered fishing trip with Fin Charters and had a great afternoon. We’re a fly fishing family so it was awesome to do a little saltwater fishing. We highly recommend Wish Upon a Starfish and Holden Beach!
The owner/host was helpful and welcoming. The house was very well organized, clean, and well represented from the posting and photos. We have zero complaints and would definitely stay there again in the future!
My wife and I stayed with our three daughters, significant others and grandson. The home is definitely geared toward family fun. The house is well equipped with everything you could need. There were lots of beach chairs, wagons and toys for the beach and pool The access to the beach was right at the end of our street and only a couple minute walk from doorstep to waves. We enjoyed the beach in the mornings then relaxed in the pool in the afternoon and evenings. We will definitely go back again.
We had the absolute best stay in Holden Beach. The house is gorgeous and has literally everything you could ever need with kids! The outdoor closet was stocked with beach chairs, pool floats, scooters, puddle jumpers etc. We loved having the private pool and easy beach access (just a quick walk to the beach). We could not recommend this property more and will definitely be back!
Patty was extremely responsive through the whole process! (Even before I booked the week with her) We originally had the week before Memorial Day and were planning on leaving the day after. Unfortunately, the weather was not looking great. Since there was availability for us to shift a few days, Patty was more than willing to help us out where she could. We were able to shift it by a couple of days, and even though we got 2-3 sunny days.. it was better than nothing and we were so appreciate of her flexibility. The home is beautiful! It’s fully stocked with everything you could need. Board games and puzzles for rainy days, toys in the kids room and lots of kids books! It had all sorts of baby gear if you needed it and had bikes, beach chairs, pool floats, bike helmets and beach toys! The local neighbors on the street are so pleasant and the short walk to the beach was so convenient! We loved every part of it. Thank you Patty!
The property was amazing great views. Spacious and house provided the essentials and then some. Short walk to the beach and just a great stay over all. Would definitely recommend and will definitely stay here again.
The house was everything and more. We had everything we needed for the beach and pool. Everything was super comfortable in the house. My children 8 and 4 enjoyed the puzzles and games. Patty was a top notch host. Will will definitely consider staying here again!
This new vacation rental is amazing. The space and layout was great for my family (2 adults, 3 kids), my parents, my niece and her boyfriend. The kid room was a hit for my 6 year old. There were pool floats and toys galore. We took the bikes for a ride and enjoyed cooking on the grill one night. Patty and Bryan were great communicators when the automatic door lock needed batteries. It was a wonderful trip!
Our family of 10, from my grandmother at 76 to my youngest niece at almost 18 months, absolutely loved this house! It had everything we needed right down to a baby gate to help with the littles while upstairs. Patty was wonderful from the booking process all the way through checkout. I asked questions not even related to the property (since we had never been to Holden Beach before), and she always answered quickly and kindly. Paying a little extra to have the pool heated was SO worth it! The kids totally hated when we gave the call for one last jump, and they were asking when we could come back before we had even left. As titled, we had a fantastic vacation!
This is an excellent house on the far side of the island making for a low key relaxing vacation. Checking in and out of the property was very simple. House offers lots of amenities. Looking forward to staying again in the future.
Our family had a great time at Wish Upon a Starfish. The house is brand new, with a modern feel and tastefully decorated. It’s very kid friendly, with extra amenities for young kids, toddlers and babies (a pack-n-play, plastic ware for meals, broad selection of kid friendly books). The pool was a great highlight, and having it heated ensured we could take a dip anytime during our stay! We are neat freaks, and it was awesome to walk into a virtually spotless place. Patty is a very responsive host; I always received a prompt answer to any question we had. Can’t wait to go back!
House is in great shape and stocked with everything we needed (bikes, beach chairs). Easy walk to the beach. Kids loved the pool. Friendly neighborhood. Would highly recommend.
