Truly a 5 Star Experience!

We are a family with young kids and a dog. We have stayed at a handful of rentals in the Cherry Grove Beach area in North Myrtle Beach, and this one definitely stands above the rest in terms of the quality of the property, the cleanliness, and being completely turn-key to have everything you need for an excellent beach vacation. The host is very friendly and communicative and the check-in and checkout process is as simple as can be. The location is great for the beach. It’s only about a 150 yard walk and the house is fully stocked with the items you need for the beach. Highly recommend this property and we will absolutely rebook this property when we return for another vacation

Perfect spring break getaway

Salty Starfish was just what we needed for our spring break vacay. My kids loved the pool, games and especially the bunk beds. Our pup couldn’t get enough of the beach and hanging out poolside with us. The house was incredibly equipped, super clean and Francesca was an awesome hostess. We have already talked about planning our next trip. Thank you for a great stay!

10+ Star Review

Salty Starfish vacations was truly a home away from home. When we first walked in, the basket of beach towels greeted us. Each room had plenty of towels and clean linens. The chefs in our family enjoyed the large kitchen, which was well-equipped to prepare our family dinners. The large dining room table was a favourite for family dinners and playing card games at night. The beach was super close to the house (as described) and everything we would need for the beach was in the pool storage (toys, wagon, chairs), and there was an outdoor shower where we could rinse off when we were back. The outdoor heated pool was beautiful and the kids absolutely loved it. The outdoor games were a blast too! This home had everything and was super clean. It was truly a home away from home, and Francesca (our host) worked hard to make it this way. Every message that I sent was responded to within minutes, and she was genuinely concerned in ensuring that we had the best vacation possible. She was very personable, kind and gave very easy/detailed instructions. She answered all questions promptly. 5 stars is not enough for Francesca and this property.

Adorable house close to the beach.

House was super clean, very well appointed, with an adorable coastal beachy vibe. Great open layout of living space vs bedrooms. Plenty of bathrooms and utility space. Kitchen although compact was very user friendly and opened into a large dining space. Francesca as our host was so helpful and quick to answer all our questions and needs. Our only critique would be some of the beds and pillows could be softer. Outside pool area was great - we asked for the pool to be heated and it was comfortable even tho the weather was a little chilly. Only a half block from the beach and gorgeous sunsets! Great find in North Myrtle.

Perfect place!

Salty Starfish Vacations was a great place to stay. It was immaculately clean, spacious, and a two minute walk to the beach. The pool area has everything you need, from loungers, a hammock, living area, picnic table, to a barbecue. Kitchen is fully equipped, and all bedrooms are comfortable. I loved the neighborhood, and all the activities. Francesca is a wonderful hostess, always available for anything you might need. We can’t wait to go back.

The Salty Starfish was the absolute perfect place for our 2023 beach vacation! Best week ever!

I can't say enough great things about our stay at the Salty Starfish. From the moment we booked earlier this year, to the final moments, the grace and kindness from our host, Francesca was wonderful. The reservation process and communications received were great and included all the helpful info needed. Then, there's the house. Oh my goodness! Perfect beach access, literally. Clean. Fully stocked with everything needed, and beautifully decorated. Did I mention how clean it was!? The pool area was absolutely perfect and we enjoyed late afternoon swims after being on the beach all day. The location of this house in Cherry Grove is great for morning walks to the point, which is absolutely breathtaking. Our family, including a teenager, a 20yr old, and my parents all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We have been vacationing in NMB for the last 15+ years and this was one of the best! We can't wait to come back!

This was the first time I rented a house & WOW... this house has definitely set the bar high! The house was immaculate. Everything worked perfect & was new, clean, spacious and ever so comfortable. The host literally thought of everything because the house had it (even the outdoor space was set up perfectly with seating, tables & games). The neighbors were friendly & the neighborhood was very safe. We couldn't have been happier & hope to return soon!
