“South Star" ocean front, sleeps 6, inground pool on ocean! August price drop!!!

We would love to have your next vacation be at the South Star. This first floor, end unit offers spectacular ocean views and is just steps to the pool or beach, take your pick!

***New!!***
January 2024, brand new bathroom, fully remodeled, new kitchen floor & new memory foam twin mattresses in the crews' quarters! In the summer of 2023, we welcomed a new AC unit ensuring your summer nights are not hot and humid! As of March 2022, all appliances at the south star were upgraded! Fridge, dishwasher, stove, washer and dryer!!!
As for the rest, it’s all amazing, read on for the details!

The unit offers one bedroom with a queen bed, two "crews' quarters" twin bunk beds built into the hall (bed safety rails provided for top at no up-charge) and a pull-out sleeper sofa in the family room as well as power recliner.

The family room has dual sliding doors leading out to the patio where you can sit and relax while looking at the ocean. Just past your patio is one of three grilling stations and to your right the pool.

The bathroom has a walk-in tile shower as well as a washer and dryer.

The South Star is deep cleaned after each stay. This includes all bed coverings, pillow covers, couch cover and tablecloth being washed and changed after each stay.

The unit has a dedicated parking space just steps from the front door making your move in a breeze.

The patio has direct ocean views, and the South Star is part of the last residential condos on pleasure island which provides easy access to walking and biking trails through Fort Fisher and the historic preservations and civil war museums.

Need a day out of the sun? Just take a short drive to the aquarium! This location also makes taking advantage of the ferry system to Southport a breeze!

It is important to me that your time at the South Star is AMAZING! if you have any questions or requests please do not hesitate to reach out! Thank you for considering and hopefully booking the South Star for you next vacation! -Julie

Love South Star and Fort Fisher
We stayed at the South Star for the Fourth Annual Please Island Jeep Jam. The location was perfect for the Fort Fisher Rec Area and the 4x4 Beach. The condo was clean and updated. The tile in the shower is beautiful! Loved that there was a box fan available. We enjoyed our stay.

Great getaway!
We came down for a getaway and for the Wilmington craft and cuisine fest. This location was great for both and the closeness to Fort Fisher. My child loves the bunk beds and we loved the back porch. Host was great. We loved it so much we stayed an extra night!

Property was spot on for the listing. Great access to the beach and pool area.
We enjoyed that we could look out and see the ocean! My grandchildren loved the bunks. It rained a good bit of the time we were there but there was enough room we were not cramped inside while enjoying playing games and puzzles.

Family friendly and relaxing!
We stayed in this little gem for a quick family getaway and it was perfect! There were little extras for the kids that we didn't expect and it was so relaxing. We were close to the pool plus we had a little sandy picnic area overlooking the beach that kept all of us entertained. Julie was very responsive and even got us an early check in! We would definitely stay here again!

We have stayed at many different condos at different beaches over the years, and this may just be the best one. We usually try a different beach each year, but this one might become our go to. Julie is the best host I have ever dealt with. So quick to respond to any question, not to mention, anything you may need during your stay is already provided. The place was clean, very nice, and right on the beach, which is a must for me. I fell in love with the small town feel of Kure Beach since we really don't care for the crowds. I really don't have anything bad to say about it. Go there! I'm hoping it's available when we're ready to go back to the beach. I really can't gush about Julie enough either, such a pleasure.

My husband and I stayed here with our 4 boys! We had an absolute blast! The house was just as listed and Julie had great communication!
