Thank you for your feedback! We're so glad to hear the home met your needs and that you enjoyed the location, views, and beach setup—it really is a great perk! We appreciate your patience with the minor maintenance issues and are addressing the remaining ones promptly. As for the roaches, you're right—Florida's tropical climate does bring some unwelcome visitors from time to time, but we do have regular pest control in place and will be sure to follow up. We’re thrilled you had a great week overall and would love to host you again!

Perfect for a large group

Star of the Sea was the perfect setting for our group’s beach trip. The kids loved having a sleepover in the bunk room, and each couple was appreciative of having their own king sized bed. Being able to see the beach from the pool was a big plus, as was being able to see the pool from the living area. Would definitely stay here again!

Escape from Reality

The house itself and location was perfect for our family escape from reality! My husband, our 3 adult children, their spouses and children had a wonderful 8 days/nights! The house allowed for plenty of space for 11 of us, and the location was ideal. We all stayed in the 5 large bedrooms of the main house and did not feel crammed for space. The house is beautiful and the pool/back porch area was perfect for occasional breaks out of the full sun! The short walk to the beach was convenient for going back & forth throughout the day. I highly recommend this property!

Perfect beach home with private pool

Property manger was very easy to work with. Great communication. Process was very easy getting in and out. Enjoyed this beautiful beach house with a private pool! Very easy access to the beach with beach chairs that were set-up for us. We had 3 couples with plenty of room. Very clean and comfortable. Beds were comfortable. Downside, not enough kitchen supplies and need better toilet paper! Would recommend this vacation beach home!!

The house is nice with a decent location a few houses away from the crowds. However it is not the best house for people on different schedules as it’s very open and small sounds travel and echo. There were several broken items when we arrived and the property manager was very responsive in taking care of what he could in a timely manner.

Just what we needed!

We were very pleased with our stay. Some of the handles on doors, windows and faucets need to be tightened- especially the back door as it kept coming off. But that is the only issue we had. The house was beautiful and in a great location. It was well stocked and you can’t beat the sunsets. Latoya was always available and helpful!
