8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2024
The home was absolutely beautiful. Beds very comfortable. I feel like the cleaning fee you pay is not within the level of clean the home was in when we arrived. The floors were very dirty. Not sand but food crumbs etc. and one bedroom had not been cleaned and bedspread had food all over it. The garage was in disarray and the outside area were not clean and straightened. We cleaned every floor and washed the bedding on one bed. It’s frustrating to pay that amount of a cleaning fee and just arrive and it not be handled. Especially with the amount you pay for the rental itself. We also used the clubhouse pool one day and told in info we had access to clubhouse. My niece used code and went in and had a man tell her only homeowners have access. I called to verify to which we were told we absolutely did have access and the man came back out to tell us he was the property manager. The beach was beautiful and peaceful. As is Mexico Beach. No large commercialized buildings etc. Once all the construction is done it will be an awesome area. Lots of construction on every street with many nails and sharp things on street. We picked up as we were out walking. The construction was not disturbing or loud. We did also experience ants and fruit flies in house. I’m sure some of this comes from ongoing construction. Cape and Coast did send someone to spray outside. Cape and Coast has excellent customer service. Always very friendly and apologetic for issues and did try to handle quickly.

Sea Star is a beautiful property with excellent amenities, especially the pool and hot tub, and the location was exactly what our group was looking for. We had a wonderful vacation and enjoyed many aspects of the home. Future guests should be aware that the walk to the beach may be farther than expected, particularly when carrying chairs, coolers, and beach gear. We would recommend considering a golf cart, wagon, or bikes to make trips to and from the beach more convenient.We chose Sea Star because it appeared well-suited to accommodate a larger group, and overall it served that purpose. However, there were several maintenance and readiness issues that suggested the home could benefit from more attention to detail before guest arrival. The management team was able to resolve some of the easier issues within a day or two. There were also some concerns related to the accommodations (broken bed) and amenities (seating) available for larger groups that warrant owner and management review. We are currently discussing these items with the management team and are hopeful they will be addressed. I hope to provide a positive follow-up update once those discussions are complete. With a few improvements, Sea Star has the potential to deliver an exceptional experience that fully matches its great location, layout, and amenities.
