Sit back and relax!

The master bedroom and queen guest bedroom each have a private access to the beautiful pool area, where you can enjoy the private back yard, pool and spa. The open floor plan offers everything you want for a family vacation or a romantic get-away. The living room boasts a wall of built-in shelves where you can pick out a great book to read inside or out by the pool. You won't have to miss your favorite TV shows or sports events because there is a large TV with DVR in the living room with full cable access.

Activities
At your doorstep are an array of activities, including world-renowned golfing and tennis as well as biking, hiking, fishing, and lazy days at the beach. Tennis and Pickleball players can use the FREE Greenwood Forest courts or may opt for one of Sea Pines’ nationally-ranked tennis clubs with lighted clay courts. Guests are welcome at the clubs. World-class golf within Sea Pines awaits you, with the beautiful Ocean course, the Pete Dye-designed Heron course, and the magnificent Harbour Town Links clubhouses all within a two-minute drive from the house. You can also enjoy dozens of other courses on Hilton Head Island.
Your stay at the Starfish Beach house includes 4 complimentary bikes that you can use to explore all that Sea Pines as to offer!
The house location within Sea Pines Plantation allows you to easily walk to shops, ride your bike along the many miles of bike paths or to the Sea Pines Private Beach Club (a 7 minute bike ride) or to many of Sea Pines’ other beach access points. The house is just a twenty-minute walk to Harbour Town, one of the most popular areas in all of Hilton Head Island. Just down the street from the house are the FREE Greenwood Forest neighborhood amenities - playground, swimming pool (great for swimming laps), basketball court and tennis/pickleball courts. We also purchase a pool pass for our guests if they'd like to enjoy the community pool. In the shed you'll find beach chairs, and other beach and pool amenities. At the Sea Pines Beach Club you can enjoy the beautiful beach, food and bar service with an ocean view, showers, restrooms, a beach store, and seasonal activities for children. The beach is attended by lifeguards during the summer season. If you prefer a more remote beach experience you can bike or walk to any of dozens of beach access points along Sea Pines’ 5 miles of beach.
History buffs will find much to see and do on or near Hilton Head, which is located in an area steeped in Southern culture and tradition. St. Helena Island, home to the unique Gullah people, is an easy day trip by car, as are Savannah, Charleston and Beaufort, all prominent Civil War towns. 'The Spirit of Harbour Town' tour boat conducts daily round trips (with a four-hour tour layover) to Savannah during the summer season.

Summary of reviews
Guests loved the beautiful, updated kitchen, spacious living areas, private pool, and convenient location. Highly recommended for family vacations!
5.0 / 5.0
We had the best time staying at this house. It was beautiful and clean. Great location in sea pines. Plenty of space in the house. Excellent communication with the owners.
The only downside were the mosquitos out back that prevented us from using the pool after day 2. Not something the owner can control, but it was a shame because we really wanted to use the pool with our toddler. We tried citronella candles and it still didn't help.
Hope to visit again soon!

This home is centrally located-short walk to Sea Pines Center and accessible to best of Sea Pines by bike. We enjoyed the large, bright kitchen for preparing and sharing family meals. The comfortable living room is a great gathering place for relaxing at day’s end. The outdoor shower and pool were a plus. We would return.

Beautiful, updated kitchen and living area. We had the pool and spa heated, which is done remotely- please request details on how to regulate the heat through the pool controls- took us 4 days and a few messages to figure it out- we rented bikes and really enjoyed all Sea Pines had to offer- quiet neighborhood- will definitely be back!

This was a great property for our multi-generational family vacation. The house was well laid out for everyone to spread out with their own space. The couches in the main room were so cozy to relax on each night. The pool was wonderful and the kids enjoyed swimming every day. The neighborhood was very quiet and well located within Sea Pines.
This was our first trip to HHI and we will definitely be back.

Just a really nice place to stay. close (walkable to small shopping center/with restaruants), Harbor Town, and the Sea Pines Beach Club. plenty of space to spread out and relax - pool and hot tub added bonus after daily golfing. Highly recommend staying here. Added bonus - owners were very nice and easy to deal with.

We really enjoyed our stay here at this property. The things we enjoyed the most was the dual showerheads in the master bathroom which made bathing our kids easy after a day at the beach! We also liked the private pool with ample shallow areas for our young kids. We all really enjoyed the neighborhood pool just a short walk or bike ride around the corner. We oftentimes had the entire pool to ourselves there. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet. We took the trolley to the beach a few times or drove and parked at the Sea Pines Beach Club later in the day. I have Celiac disease and can't have gluten or anything that comes into contact with it so we have to cook a lot at home. This kitchen came fully equipped with all the things we needed to cook. We grilled a couple times as well, it was nice having that available. We really enjoyed Harris Teeter grocery store and getting takeaway from Skillets Cafe (located in Coligny beach area) that has tasty gluten free options.
Starfish Cottage seems to be one of the few houses in the community to have a private pool so we felt lucky to have that. The kitchen is nice and spacious as well as the living room. We had a great time and couldn't recommend this property more!

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Starfish Cottage. This was our 2nd stay in this home. The home is bright, open, and spacious. The pool is in a very private backyard. The area is very quiet and not busy. Beach is about a 10 minute bike ride away. Comminication with the hosts was quick and easy and they do everything possible to make your stay wonderful.

A wonderful vacation in the perfect spot. The neighborhood is very quiet. The house has lots of light and is extremely comfortable. The owners were easy to communicate with, provided all necessary information, and the house was well equipped. The pool was smaller than it appeared in the pictures but great for my family of 3. We loved the spa and used it everyday. A great experience and would highly recommend!!

Our family rented this home for spring break and it worked perfectly! The house has tons of space where you need it and the updated kitchen was beautiful. We rented bikes and rode 10 minutes to the beach almost daily. We ate at three different places in the walkable shopping area and were all good! Some many activities in Sea Pines, you barely need to leave the community. I wish we had brought separate towels for the pool because I was constantly washing towels for both pool and beach (which weren’t provided).

My wife and I had an amazingly relaxing and fun time staying at your beautiful house. Your house was perfect for our get a way from everything vacation... Communications with Ramona was great as the start of our vacation coincided with hurricane Ian so that was very reassuring.
We loved the heated pool and spa [well worth the extra $$], the bright open layout of the house and the beautifully remodeled kitchen. Especially helpful were the little instruction notes to operate everything.
The Sea Pines Resort is truly a special place. From the natural beauty, the scenic bike trails, the amazing ocean beaches with warm waters .
We would recommend Starfish Cottage to all
Thanks

Our Stay st Starfish Cottage
Everything as advertised with our stay at Starfish Cottage in Sea Pines. We just returned and had a fantastic time with our friends. We were two couples and the cottage is perfectly laid out for two couples or a family. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need if you enjoy cooking. The beautiful bike trails are easily accessible throughout Sea Pines and provide access to the beach at multiple points. The pool was a welcome respite after a day of touring in Hilton Head, St. Helena’s and Savannah(a really nice boat ride away). Starfish Cottage is close to Harbourtown which provides easy access to restaurants, patios and live music. All and all, a great time.

Beautiful Home
Our family of 6 had a great time at Starfish cottage. We biked often to Harbour town as well as the beach, both a little over a mile away. The kitchen is great, clean and newly updated. The house is nicely decorated without having too many decorative objects. We usually have to put things away when we rent houses because we have twin toddlers, so I was thankful that I didn't need to do much to "baby proof". There are helpful labels/hints on many of the appliances/washer dryer. The washer and dryer aren't the greatest but they get the job done. The detergent compartment of the washer kept getting filled with water and would splash when you opened it for the next load. The dryer needed to run a few times to get the load fully dry, unless the load was very small. Little issues though that were easy enough to work around! The pool and hot tub were awesome, we went swimming multiple times a day. Overall, the house is beautiful, with lots of nice windows and an abundance of natural light. Wonderful neighborhood with a cute park/playground just down the street. We would absolutely stay again!

Well Maintained, Terrific Property in Sea Pines
Stayed in Sea Pines for the past 5 years and this house might be the best! The kitchen is terrific, everything is upgraded and they have just about anything you will need to cook or store leftovers. The owners were VERY responsive and thoughtful to their guests. The pool is great and the option to heat it was a great addition!
Highly recommend!!

Family spring break 2022
First time to Hilton head, what a wonderful family friendly spring break! We brought our 3 children ages 11, 14, and 16 and they said it’s been their favorite family vacation we’ve taken. We spent countless hours biking around Sea Pines and on the beach! Discovered the shortest route to the beach is only 7 minutes away by bike (very easy and flat). Can bike to watch the sunrise from the beach, simply stunning. The house suited us well. Our kids loved the pool and my husband and I enjoyed cooking nice meals together. Bought fresh seafood from Barnacle Bills and what a treat. Lots of great places to eat out on the island but the kitchen was so nice we ended up eating in mostly. Ramona is great to answer any questions you might have. Would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend this place to any family.

Very restful & enjoyable stay
We visited the Island and stayed in the Starfish Cottage for the month of February. This home is super comfortable, lots of space, beautifully renovated kitchen. February was a tad too cool to take a dip in the pool, but we enjoyed relaxing by it. Communication with the owners was top notch. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Nice house in a great location
Overall, I was happy with the property. It's a great house and the updated kitchen was a great feature. There are lots of windows and plenty of natural light all day long. The neighborhood is quiet which was what I was looking for in a rental. The owners were accesible via email and the check in process was smooth.

Definitely the best place to stay!
We loved our week on HHI! House was exactly as described and pictured. No surprises—except for how great the weather was and how perfect Sea Pines is. We hardly left the neighborhood.

We were fortunate enough to stay for a month. We treated the Wolf's home as if it were our own. They took such great care to ensure we had an enjoyable stay, we wanted to make sure we returned their generosity. Kitchen was fully stocked and beautiful. Washer and dryer conveniently located, a library with a wide selection which we took advantage of, beds were comfortable, short bike ride to the beach but we mostly stayed close to home and took advantage of the amazing pool with super nice seating, including a table and chairs for eating, grill came in super handy. We definitely would recommend as we had absolutely no issues and Ramona was a delight. We had a great relaxing time and would visit again in the future without question.
