AMAZING STAY
Our stay at here was fantastic for our family. With two young daughters, aged 6 and 3, the house was perfect—spacious and comfortable. The pool was a big hit, and the beach was just a short stroll away. We loved the privacy the property offered, yet it was so convenient to hop on a golf cart and reach everything we needed quickly. It was an ideal blend of relaxation and accessibility, making our vacation memorable and stress-free. Highly recommended for families looking for a great getaway spot!

Review for Sea Star House: Rating 10
Our stay at Sea Star House on Harbour Island was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were immersed in the authentic charm of the island and the warm hospitality that defines the Bahamian culture. The house itself is a perfect reflection of this—beautifully designed with a blend of island elegance and comfort, making it feel both luxurious and welcoming.What truly set this experience apart, though, was the incredible staff. Having traveled extensively, I can confidently say that the team at Sea Star House is among the best I’ve ever had the pleasure of encountering. Their attention to detail, warmth, and professionalism made our stay effortless and unforgettable. They went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, all while making us feel like family.Harbour Island itself is a dream destination, and staying at Sea Star House made it even more special. I would absolutely return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic and elevated island experience.

A wonderful stay!
Sea Star was the perfect stay for our first visit to Harbour Island! The property is wonderful and perfect for families! The location is great, and the beach was only steps away. Our kids loved bouncing between the pool and the beach every day! Sea Star felt like home for us. Everything was easy and the staff were fantastic! Bob was available any time we needed him and went above and beyond! Overall, this is a great property! I would highly recommend it for future families. Thank you, Jack, for letting us experience paradise at Sea Star!

Slice of Heaven!
Our family had the most wonderful stay at the Sea Star! The grounds are lovely, the home is inviting and beautifully decorated and offers everything you could need during your stay. The pink sand beaches are just a few short steps from the house which made it so easy with the kiddos! We all enjoyed the shady pool in the morning and late afternoons. The entire staff was spectacular and went above and beyond to help us feel at home. I would absolutely recommend this property while staying on Harbour Island. Our family can’t wait to return! ⭐️

The best stay in Harbour Island!
Pictures don’t do this property justice. It is absolutely stunning in person and we had the BEST week with my two babies and family at Sea Star. We loved everything about the property, from the cozy beds to the spacious kitchen, to the beautiful pool. We loved sipping our coffee on the patio every morning while the kids ran around the yard. The beautiful beach truly is at your feet in ten steps. We felt so at home here and can’t wait to plan another trip back!!

Perfect family house!
Our stay at Sea Star was perfect! The gardens and pool are gorgeous and the property is very private. The house is right across from the Southern most public beach access on the island. The home furnishings were right out of an Amanda Lindroth design and were so charming. We had Ashley who cleans the house also watch our 1 year old each night, she was great! Couldn't recommend this house more highly!

Amazing stay!
My wife, two kids (5 & 3), and I just spent a fantastic week at Sea Star. Can’t say enough good things about this property. The houses are great (2 separate and would be perfect for 2 families), full kitchen with everything you need, and the garden/pool is amazing! It’s so private you feel like you’re in your own world. Beyond the house, Bob and Ashley were fantastic. Every time we had a question for either of them, they were super responsive and incredibly easy to work with. We loved it so much we just booked again for this summer. Can’t wait to go back!

Great rental in Harbour Island
We had a great visit. This is the first time we rented a house on the island and we were not disappointed. We had to reschedule our original trip due to Covid and jack was very accommodating with the reschedule. The house was exactly as advertised. great housekeeper and management team. Thanks

About the host

Hosted by Jack Childress

Host profile image
Hi there,

We're the Childress Family and we're exited to have you stay at our beautiful home on Harbour Island. We've spent the better part of 4 years working on making our house one of the most beautiful on the island, with all the amenities of home.

We bought Sea Star for our own vacation use, but love the island so much that we occasionally rent the property so everyone can experience the beauty and wonder of Harbour Island.

Why they chose this property

We love Sea Star because it's extremely private, being surrounded by jungle, as well as its proximity to the ocean. Speaking of, Sea Star is less than 10 meters from the beach. The sound of the gentle Atlantic waves will surround you from morning to night.

We love being on the southern end of Harbour Island because of the area's quiet neighborhood and less crowded beaches. The island is so small, anyway, that you're never more than a five minute golf cart ride into town, or a mile walk along the beach to any of the Atlantic-side resorts.

What makes this property unique

Sea Star is unique because of its privacy, beautiful jungle landscaping, proximity to the ocean, and the pristine pool which sits in the center of the property. We've also built out several seating areas, for private conversations or just watching the sunset over the palm trees with a Goombay Smash.
