Amazing, laid back stay!
The Starfish was amazing! The decor was beautiful! I loved the vibe of the house. Everything was so clean and well stocked. The pool was clean and perfect. We spent many hours in the pool just relaxing. Lynn was the most accommodating and responsive host. We had a question or two and she responds in minutes. The house was in a convenient, relaxing, and quiet location. The restaurants in town are 10/10. We would come back in a heartbeat next time we visit family in the area.

Quick holiday getaway
The house is precious and in a great neighborhood and perfect for a quick getaway for family and friends. It was easy to get in/out & was close proximity to beach & aquarium & other activities. The rental company was very responsive in communication. The pool was the very best part! No bells and whistles, but it stayed cool the entire time and was such a treat.

Beautiful home in Gulfport
nice 3 bedroom home, with view of the water. Close to restaurants, and hwy 90. Great location. Loved the master bedroom, and 2nd bedroom with queen bed, but with 3 couples the 3rd bedroom was a challenge with the bunk beds, but it was a great stay. Host was very nice and we hope to be back next year! Thank you!
