We had a wonderful week at Starfish Wishes! The unit was clean, and was as described, perfect for the two of us! While walking daily on the beach was our goal, on the last day we found two small starfish! I tossed one back as it was still alive but kept the second one since it was dried. We made a wish and wished to return to OBX! Our host, Gene, stayed in touch with some good recommendations for restaurants and this trip is one for good memories! Thank you!

Gene was an awesome host! He gave my husband and I ideas of where to go eat in which everything is so conveniently located and the food was delicious! He texted places that we could go check out and visit. Giving us great ideas of how we can enjoy our visit! Communication was prompt via text message and phone call if needed. The condo was clean and decorated nicely! The oceanfront view was awesome and close in proximity. We were even given complementary wine glasses as a souvenir! Wish we had come when the weather wasn’t so windy and cloudy but we do plan to return in the Spring/Summer months! Overall, we had a wonderful experience and are looking forward to returning!

Being oceanfront was amazing and having the direct beach access from our balcony was a huge perk! Gene let us check in a few hours early which was an added bonus.

We had a wonderful stay! The rooms were spacious and clean, nicely furnished and comfortable. The view off the deck was unobstructed with a beautiful ocean view. There was direct beach access off the deck as well, which was very convenient. Highly recommend and would stay again.

Once we got to the penthouse it was very nice and as beautiful as pictured. First class for sure. My wife and I are both over eighty years old and she has mobility issues. I was beyond exhausted by the time we got all our stuff up 36 stairs. Ocean view was wonderful and the beach is nice but the deep sugar sand was tough on us too. Fabulous place for younger folks (which is everyone else)but the physical demands made it less than 5 stars for me.

Response from VrboOwner on 13 June 2026
Thank you for staying with us and for the kind words about the condo, ocean views, and beach. We understand that the stairs can be challenging for some guests, especially since Starfish Wishes is a top-floor oceanfront penthouse. The listing does note the stairs, but we always encourage guests with mobility concerns to reach out before booking so we can help determine if the property is a good fit for their needs. We’re glad you enjoyed your stay and appreciate you choosing Starfish Wishes.

This property was perfect for our stay. The bed was comfy, the ocean view from the deck was excellent and the shower was great. I especially appreciated the Kuerig coffee pot. My only concern, being an older person that is used to cable television, is it possible to have written directions as to how the TVs work? Not a big problem as we were out most of the day, but morning news is a must for us and a late night show is nice as well. We were down for the OBX car show so this location was perfect and close to everything. Dinner at Millers on the Waterfront was excellent. I hope we are able to comeback next year and maybe stay a little longer.

The view is gorgeous. Sunrises were beautiful every morning. You can hear the waves crushing from inside. It was wonderful. The condo itself is clean with everything you need. You have plenty of room in the condo and is very convenient to everything. Have already made plans to go back next year!
