Very nice house, it looked newly renovated. The house was clean and beds were comfy. It’s in a good location. Beach access was perfect!! The booking was easy. They kept in touch during our stay to make sure everything was satisfactory. Our entire experience was great!!
The house was very nice. Great location. The bed frame on one of the beds broke during the night, we informed the property manager the next morning, and they had someone there within an hour to correct it. I would definitely stay here again.
Great place with beach access. The property manager was great! Very quick response with any questions I had. Will be back next year!

Reviewer Comments:
The property was exactly as described in the listing. We had good communication with the property management, as to check in, etc. We have stayed in many properties, this property was spotless! Everything was super clean and well maintained. The deck and deck furniture was comfortable and so many seating choices. Wonderful restaurants close by.
My wife and I stayed here with our 11-month-old son for a week. The house was in a great location. It was the perfect distance from the crowds, but still close to all the shopping and food options. The home was completely updated and felt like a high-end private home. Everything was extremely cozy and clean. We could not have asked for anything better.
This was a great week. The Sea Star should be the Shining Star. It was clean, cute, and current! The house was well stocked with great kitchen utensils and full appliances that worked well for us. We will be back!

Wonderful stay in Gulf Shores for Fall break. Property is accurately described in listing. Home is updated and tastefully decorated. The porch overlooking the gulf is fabulous. We enjoyed coffee in the mornings and dinner in the evenings on the deck! Management company communicated via text and timely with a minor issue we had upon arrival.

Reviewer Comments:
I can’t say enough about how nice this stay was for our family of 6 plus our “granny nanny.” From the outdoor shower to the composite wood lighted steps and deck and deck furniture to the great room with comfy furniture and really attractive lighting options to the spotless, well-supplied kitchen to the smart TVs in every room, the 2 bedrooms with en-suite bathroom (plus another bathroom shared by the other 2 bedrooms and open to the hallway)—it just was so comfortable for everyone. It definitely felt like a getaway for our family. It’s located in a stretch of beach pretty distant from the condo towers so there was plenty of room on the beach to spread out and have space. The bedrooms and bathrooms are on the small side, but everything is perfectly functional and comfortable. The property management was excellent and accommodating with great, unsolicited offers for help and simple instructions. We will definitely look up this property for our next beach trip.

Sea Star was a perfect place to spend an extra long weekend with friends. The house was great and was everything it was advertised to be. The location away from the main public beaches was perfect. The property managers were very attentive and were quick to fix a small issue of a tripped breaker. My friends and I definitely hope to come back again next summer.

The Sea Star is in a great location and has a spectacular view! We drove in from the Pensacola airport and it was a very easy drive. The house has all the rooms on one floor which we appreciated - no carrying your luggage up multiple flights of stairs. Being on the beach is a must for us and The Sea Star did not disappoint!

Reviewer Comments:
This is our second time staying at this rental property and we were so pleasantly surprised that it was recently renovated. The home was fully furnished and in a great location. The only downside was that people from across the street would try to go through the property gate to get access to the beach. Renters should probably not allow public access. Also, be sure to bring your own beach towels, trash bags, dishwasher soap, hand soap, and laundry detergent.

Reviewer Comments:
This home was beautiful, well maintained, and a view that is second to none. The large, open living, dining, and kitchen provided a lot of space for our entire group to hangout comfortably. The back deck was a hit when taking a break from the sand and for watching the stars in the night sky. We loved everything about this home. If I had one suggestion, it would be a hook on the door to hang a make-up bag, towel, or clothes on when showering in the back left bathroom and maybe a rug just inside the door into the main living area. Those things definitely did not break the deal. This home would be one we would rent again.

This may be the nicest house we have used in gulf shores, from the home itself to the cleanliness and overall experience. The management company was very good- everything layed out in advance and very responsive. We partially chose this house for the porch, which didn’t disappoint. Partially shaded and partially sunny, so that we could adjust during the day. Kitchen was very good for preparing meals. Close to everything, but far enough for the beach to be uncrowded.

Thank y’all so much for a wonderful time that we won’t forget! 💕💕
This rental was great. We loved the single floor layout, lots of room for everyone in common areas, great kids room, wonderful deck that was partially covered with lots of seating. Perfectly clean and well maintained. Communication with the host was amazing.
