Kitchen has all new appliances and granite counter tops. Enjoy your morning coffee and view on the front porch. Have a great afternoon grilling your freshly caught seafood in the backyard by the saltwater pool with plenty of seating around the pool. 1 block from the beach. 2 miles from downtown Gulfport, Jones Park, and the newly opened Mississippi Gulfport Aquarium. 2 miles from downtown Long Beach.

Nice Beach House
Very clean, plenty of space for our family of 6. The kids enjoyed the pool on hot days and a short walk to the beach. We had a great vacation.

The home was exactly as described and all was very enjoyable. The best part was knowing that Lynn was always only a call away to address any concerns that may come up. This was as second time to stay at this home and hopefully will not be our last.

Amazing, laid back stay!
The Starfish was amazing! The decor was beautiful! I loved the vibe of the house. Everything was so clean and well stocked. The pool was clean and perfect. We spent many hours in the pool just relaxing. Lynn was the most accommodating and responsive host. We had a question or two and she responds in minutes. The house was in a convenient, relaxing, and quiet location. The restaurants in town are 10/10. We would come back in a heartbeat next time we visit family in the area.

Quick holiday getaway
The house is precious and in a great neighborhood and perfect for a quick getaway for family and friends. It was easy to get in/out & was close proximity to beach & aquarium & other activities. The rental company was very responsive in communication. The pool was the very best part! No bells and whistles, but it stayed cool the entire time and was such a treat.
