Great week

House overall meet our needs. Great location and views. Beach set up was a great perk. A few minor maintenance issues some fixed while we were there others not. Saw 2 huge roaches in the kitchen but hey it’s Florida. Overall a great week and would definitely book 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!

Family Vacation and Celebration

We just wrapped up a weeklong stay at this property and the whole experience was amazing. The property is huge and had plenty of room for our large family. The bunk room was great for kids and the location on the beach can’t be beat.

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!

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!!

We have rented many houses on the beach in Destin (over 25 years), but this is the best. Next year we will all be 80 and we will be back!!! God willing!!!

Family

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.

Super convenient

Great location for all the necessities. All our favorite restaurants were minutes away and anything else we needed to stock up on was just a short drive away. House was awesome and the beach was just steps away. Definitely doing a return trip in the near future.

Great house on a great beach

Beautiful house and beachfront. Very nice back porch and covered pool; very nice for little ones. Also had a good stock of beach toys. We really enjoyed it. Just one small suggestion - it would have been nice to have a larger pot for boiling water and such.

Overall a good place. Property needs some updating and repairs; Refrigerator needs repair as it was not cool upon arrival. Some toilet seats and faucet handles were loose, not nearly enough cookware for large families.

Great location, floorplan and beach access!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was perfect for our family trip. They each had their own ensuite bedroom and my only grandson and his mom and dad were able to stay in the apartment over the garage to avoid the family noise during nap time. The inside of house was renovated very nicely. The outside needed a little tlc especially on the upper and lower deck. Some of the appliances were not working and we did find a couple of friendly cockroaches ... but overall we all agreed it was a nice place to stay. Thank you!

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!

Excellent vacation - a few improvements outside makes it perfect

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Outside needs overhaul. Candle light fixtures broken. Major rusty spots. Urgent paint job required. Insight great but kicker table broken and xfinity modem needs to be upgraded. Not enough mesh. Add also the new x pods. Great furniture selection and superb kitchen. Location and view very good. With some small work this property would be flawless also for guest house
