Relaxing Beach Retreat! 2BDR/2BA, private Balcony above Pool, 1 block to Beach

Welcome to Starfish Haven!

This Village by the Beach town home is new construction and furnished with beautiful wood-like flooring and comfortable furniture. This town home has all the comforts of your very own beach home, but with all the amenities of condo life.

Upon arriving you can relax not only in the new home, but also in the amazing pool area. This pool is one of the best on the island and feels like a tropical resort. Beautiful kiddie pool and flowing fountains will bring peace to your vacation days.

This home is 2-story. Downstairs there is a bedroom with a king sized bed with comfortable therapeutic mattress, plus a comfortable queen sleeper sofa. Upstairs there is a king sized bed with therapeutic mattress, and twin bunk bed with a trundle. Total this house will sleep 9. Perfect for family gatherings!

There is no need to skimp on the luggage as there are plenty of over-sized closets.

All simply arranged with you and your restful stay in mind.

For your relaxing pleasure you will want to enjoy the patio outside the front door, as well as the balcony that overlooks the pool area. Beautiful place to begin your morning with coffee or wind down in the evening with a margarita.

We have stayed at village by the beach before and it was nice, clean and close to the beach. They have everything you need in the unit besides food and personal belongings. This is the only place me and my family will stay at after our first trip 2 years ago. The pool is awesome too! Can't wait to come back!!

Condo was as advertised. Well furnished. Check in and out was super smooth. Arlene was great to work with. Having 2 assigned parking spots was great. We rented a golf cart and it was perfect for zipping around to the beach. Pool was nice. Kids loved it. Would definitely stay again.

This home is absolutely beautiful!! The pool is amazing and such a luxury to have that option in addition to the quiet sandy beaches that are just a quick walk away. This rental had everything we needed to enjoy a quick escape from the busy city life we are used to. The owners were very helpful and quick to response to any questions. We will definitely stay here again and look forward to a future visit :)

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!

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!

We were very pleased with everything. The location was absolutely perfect. The town home had everting we needed for the whole family, all the kitchen items we needed, our kids had plenty of sleep space and enjoyed their room, and the margarita machine was a plus. The owners responded quickly when we had questions. We highly recommend it!

The house is nice and accommodating. Host is very responsive. It worked out great for 3 couples with children. Close to the pool. The pool was spacious but a little dirty and murky, but there were quite a bit of people in and out of it. The parking is around the corner and not visible from the house. With that being said we had a bunch of stuff stolen from our vehicle while we were sleeping.

This place had bed bugs bad!! Spent the next day washing clothes at a ghetto laundry mat and trying to find a hotel to book. The property manager did refund us and was understanding and easy to work with

Big disappointment from the moment we walked in. The wet moldy smell as you walk in and the first floor bathroom smells like urine perhaps from the old toilet. I would put Clorox toilet bowl cleaner and it would help a bit. My husband & I left Sunday afternoon because of the smell. Unit is cute, just didn’t feel clean kinda yucky

This townhome was very clean and tidy. They did an amazing job. The amenities were wonderful with everything you needed to cook and drink. We had one King bed on the lower floor with a bathroom right outside it, along with the laundry and a master suite king upstairs with a bunk/trundle bed. Plenty of closet space and drawers. They even had games, sand toys, and floats available for use. My only addition is to the guest book and adding a blurb on where you can find the bathroom key in case it gets locked from the inside. We did not anticipate that happening and it was in the upstairs bathroom drawer. :) Also, if possible, is there another # to call if help is needed other than the owner? We weren't sure if there was a property management company could be called as well in a situation like that. But, we definitely plan to come back, it was absolutely beautiful inside. And just steps from the heated pool area with a kiddie pool as well. Well done!!
