About this property

Sea Stars-Ocean Front Retreat, stunning views & right on the beach-Sleeps 14!

  • Sea Stars Beach Cottage is an elegant & homey oceanfront house with stunning views, large enough for your family getaways. Enjoy your own piece of the pristine, white sand beaches of Gulf Shores from the balconies. Relax with drinks and dinner by on the patio at our tiki bar and enjoy the sounds of the ocean waves from a hanging hammock. It has 6 bedrooms/4 baths and sleeping for 14. Located in popular W. Beach, we are close to all the action, but far enough away for relaxation!

    The space
    Sea Stars Beach Cottage is the place to be if you just want to relax, unwind and enjoy the sounds of the ocean and the beautiful white sands of the Gulf with friends and family. Sea Stars sits right on the beach with nothing between you and the ocean. Enjoy stunning views from one of our two decks, or enjoy grilling out on our patio while resting in one of our hanging hammock chairs or on our outdoor furniture. Serve up drinks or food at our unique Tiki Bar or play a game with the family. We have 2 king rooms, 2 queen rooms, 1 room with 2 twin beds, and a bunk room with 2 sets of bunk beds - 10 beds in all. Our house is located in the popular W. Beach area. While you'll have your own piece of beach to enjoy, you will also be located close to all of the area's fun things to do and best restaurants. So, choose Sea Stars if you want to have it all! Great for several families to visit the beach together.

    Guest access
    Entry is by keypad code, but we are always only a phone call away. Sea Stars is located in the popular West Beach area so guests will have no problem finding nearby stores, restaurants and things to do. We have two covered parking areas under the house, with parking for plenty more in our driveway.

    Other things to note
    Please don't book if you have anyone in your party that can't climb stairs. There is no elevator.
    Please be aware there are exterior cameras for security purposes.

Sea Stars was an awesome place to stay. The views are amazing! This home had everything that we could need and the location is great.We enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching the dolphins and the waves. Walking on the beach, searching for seashells each day was so relaxing.Brandi was wonderful at keeping us informed of all the details for the house. We would happily stay here again and again!

First Girls Cousin trip

We had the best time reminiscing about growing up together and making new memories. Loved the location and being on the beach. Hunted for shells everyday and enjoyed the long walks. The home was so comfortable for all 9 of us. Enjoyed our dinners and playing cards in the evenings. Everything was amazing!!!

Family Celebration

Property accommodated our four families comfortably, and kept the children occupied both indoors and outdoors. The location was off the main areas of the local city enough for traffic, but close enough for as needed supply runs. Will consider returning again in the future when the opportunity presents itself.

Perfect location

This property was perfect for our large family gathering. We had plenty of beds, room to spread out and were right on the beach with very easy access. We were also away from the huge crowds. We were able to sit on the decks and relax and watch the dolphins play. We had a small problem with one of the shower heads; contacted the owner and it was fixed that day. I would recommend this property to anyone.

Fun Getaway!

Part of my family and I spent a week at this beautiful house. (The other part of my family was sidelined at their home by the stomach bug. 😢 ) Other than that, it was the perfect stay! We found it very easy to walk right out of the house onto the beach. Fantastic restaurants and fun shopping venues are nearby. Our host was very communicative and quick to respond to our questions. We’re already talking about a return trip next year!

Fantastic Family Getaway!

Sea Stars was the perfect place for our family to stay and play! Family included a 2 year old and the house was easy for her to get around in. The home was spacious and open with plenty of room for us to all hang out together, yet the bedroom layout was ideal for each of us to have our private spaces. It is beautifully decorated and well equipped - just like it shows! The views from both inside and out on the decks were spectacular! The close proximity to the beach made it easy to come and go all day long. The tiki bar area under the house provided a wonderful place to hang out in the shade. Although we didn't venture out much, we were close to lots of restaurants and shops, but still far enough from all of that to make it seem like we had our own private beach. Brandi is an ideal host as she was so easy to communicate with and so responsive. We highly recommend staying at Sea Stars! Sea Stars = 5 stars (or 10 if it was possible)! We hope to return some day!

AMAZING is an understatement

A group of us friends stayed at the house for an annual Girl's Weekend. It was FABULOUS. We enjoyed the space, layout, views, and being right on the beach. Sunrises were awesome. 4 days wasn't enough at this house - relaxing. The host was very responsive as well as the handyman. We needed one of the showers checked as it drained slowly. He came right away and fixed it with no issue. We had a personal chef and the house is stocked with so many small appliances/utensils that our person didn't have to use much of what they brought -impressive Only 2 drawbacks according to our group - 1. no elevator to get your bags upstairs. 2. found it difficult getting Uber/Lyft from the area. However, we used a local cab service and all was well. HIGHLY HIGHLY Recommend staying at this INCREDIBLE beachfront home.
