FREE Heated Pool with 5 day Stay + May/June w/ Beachfront views & large pool

"Star of the Sea" is a 4 Bdrms./3.5 baths home offering "free heated" pool (one filled propane tank per visit) with new booking of 5 nights or longer during May and June of 2025. This house is on a CORNER directly across street from ocean with unobstructed views and private beach access. Ocean Blvd. W. -- 1/2 mile from bridge with option for heated private pool. The direct beachfront view is totally wide open with no obstructions. You literally watch the waves pound the sands of the surf! There are wrap around decks (from front to back on both floors)! Sit on front porch watching and listening to the waves crashing on the sand directly in front of you. You can also sit on covered back porch overlooking pool and watch the boats pass by on the Intercoastal waterway.

A great bonus for the family... if the beach is too hot or crowded, head to your own swimming retreat in the privacy fenced back yard oasis. Relax by the pool in a tranquil environment, swim a few laps, or even play some pool basketball in one of the largest pools on the island of Holden Beach!

Parking with 2 sides under home for cars and then head to the coral door which leads you to your haven for the week. Choose from one of two bedrooms facing beach or one of the two in the rear (one overlooking pool). Two of the four bedrooms even have a wraparound porch along the entire side of house with northern end overlooking pool. Third level has an open floor concept with half bath/Living Room/Dining Room, Kitchen bar-center island workspace, and large kitchen fully stocked with dishware, glasses, tools, pots, and pans.... a spacious pantry for storage as well. Enjoy the massive front porch on this level with view of ocean or walk around the deck to the covered back porch overlooking pool.

TVs with cable in each room and living area. Books/games for kids and the family available as well. Beach/pool toys in lower outdoor closet for your use ---just remember to clean them before putting back in closet. WiFi is high speed throughout the home.

Pool is cleaned once a week and monitored mid-week (if you desire additional pool monitoring/cleaning, for additional fee). This is one of the largest pools on the island and can be heated.....INQUIRE FOR COST OF HEATING AT TIME OF BOOKING.

This home is located on a corner lot and is fairly close to main entrance onto island of Holden Beach and is within 1/2 -3/4 mile to Children s Park, Basketball courts, Holden Beach Chapel, Town Hall, Post Office, and 3 restaurants (located on island). The pier is just down the road approx. 1 mile. Several other restaurants, water slides, putt-putt golf, shops, ice cream parlors just across bridge. Holden Beach Island is a wonderful and fun-filled place to create memories for families while reminiscing those days of summer vacations.

Amazing location in a great little beach town!
We had a great time during our stay here! It has all of the amenities we were looking for and the property owner was wonderful and communicated everything we needed to know. Even stopped by to start the pool heater which we really enjoyed, and worked with us on switching properties after a family illness prevented some guests from attending. So awesome to walk across the street to the private beach access! Will definitely stay again!

Great getaway!
Great property for your vacation. Home was super clean, hosts were extremely responsive to communications, and check in/out was extremely simple. Quick note if you have little ones - make sure they don't drag their feet on the wood deck surrounding the pool. We came home with a handful of splinters!

We have never been to Holden Beach before and we absolutely fell in love with it! Our weather wasn’t that great but we managed to make the best of it. The pool was amazing and the house was plenty big for all of us. We can’t wait to make another visit next year!

We had a great time at Star of the Sea! The location is perfect and convenient to the beach, coffee shop, grocery store, etc. The view of the beach was great and House was comfortable for 2 vacationing families with young kids. We opted to pay for the heated pool since it was April and the heater worked well. Owner responded quickly to questions via text.

Lovely view, spacious living area, well appointed Pool was wonderful, kids loved it. Lots of room for whole family 10 of us) I love to shell and walk to east inlet was a great vacation We usually rent oceanfront but none was available for our size group.

Family Vacation
We were very pleased with this house on Holden Beach. I rent a couple times a year typically at Emerald Isle. This was my first visit to Holden in over 30 years. This was the cleanest house that we have ever stayed in. This was a family trip and there was plenty of room for everyone. Very spacious living area and beautiful views.

Great Family Vacation
We can't say enough about our family vacation. The property was perfect for the family - everything open and inviting along with a great pool. There were tons of toys and beach items that we really didn't need to bring anything. Communication with the owner was fast and handled any questions or needs that we have both before the trip and during our stay. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

Great house on Holden Beach
Great house right across from beach. Big pool that the kids loved. Holden Beach is great because it’s really only residents that can goto the beach so it’s not crowded. The Star of The Sea has everything you need and a open view of the ocean (lot across street is empty so perfect view). Hosts were very responsive and everything went smooth. Thanks for a nice holiday.

We enjoyed being close to the bridge for easy access to grocery etc. Great ocean view from family room / kitchen floor with no house in front. The access to the beach was close and easy walk for little ones too. Chairs and bogey boards were nice to have on hand at house. Wish their was a toilet near pool Or outdoor shower area for kids to use Really enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful location
This home has a beautiful view and plenty of space for a family. The home is located across the street from the beach with an uninstructed view of the ocean. It also has a pool that was so nice & very clean. The home was nicely furnished & the kitchen was well stocked. The owners are very nice and quick to respond. Our only complaint is that it is in need of a deep cleaning.
