We have just returned from a great stay at the Starburst. There was plenty of room for the 9 of us and the living and sleeping areas were very comfortable. The kitchen and linens were well stocked. The location is perfect. Oceanfront with just a short walk to shops and restaurants in Rosemary and Alys. The kids loved the heated swimming pool and being able to run back and forth from the house to the beach on their own. Because the house is in a private neighborhood, the beach was less crowded than neighboring beaches. The owners were very responsive and accommodating. When the microwave broke while we were there, the owner arranged to have a new one delivered the next day. They even allowed us to stay past the checkout time to get one more day of sun in. We would definitely stay again and the kids are asking about next year's spring break!

Great Family Time

Review submitted: November 26, 2012   Date of arrival: June 9, 2012

We had a great family time at Starburst and our kids are looking forward to going back some time in the future. In the mean time we have mentioned the vacation to several of our friends and recommended it highly.

The house was immaculate when we stayed there. I can't believe that you're making so many upgrades!

Have a great holiday season and a prosperous New Year!

This house is breathtaking with the ocean views simply amazing! The house was very clean and well maintained. The photos were perfect! It was great to walk to the beach every day in 4 minutes ! We loved being able to walk to Rosemary Beach to all the activities. We would stay there again in a heartbeat!!

EXCEPTIONALl!.....if I had to choose one word to describe our stay at Sunburst it would be exceptional! The house was just as described in the listing.....a beautiful house with a beautiful view and all the amenities you would want for a comfortable, relaxing vacation! There was plenty of room for the 8 of us; wonderful kitchen for cooking with a view; great balcony for sunset dinner (or coffee in the morning!). The beach is the most beautiful beach in the world and the short walk to it is right out the back gate. The guys enjoyed watching pro football on the large screen tv in the living room....the girl's loved getting exercise by walking around Rosemary and shopping. It's close to a grocery store and to other areas like Seaside and Watercolor. But those areas are too commercialized to want to vacation there! We found Starburst to be THE perfect place for our vacation and will definitely come back next year.

Wow! Awesome views! Super close to the beach! It's an easy walk next door to Rosemary for restaurants (or shopping!). This is the cutest house with plenty of room for my big family. We loved the big TV and all the DVDs to watch the afternoon it rained. Since we were so close to the beach, we could easily pop back and forth to the house for lunch. So convenient! Can't wait to come back!

Fabulous property! Easily accommodated our large group. Comfortable beds!! Large bathrooms. Well-stocked kitchen. Easy beach access and very short walk to Rosemary shops and restaurants. Would have stayed for weeks and weeks!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely home-- perfect rooms to enjoy the beach and each other. There were four couples in our group and we had an amazing set up-- a fabulous kitchen to cook gourmet meals, huge TVs to watch football games, indoor or balcony dining space, a heated pool, ample room for relaxing after a day at the beach. The owners even provided sunscreen-- they thought of everything! The perfect location for a beach getaway!

Loved Your Home

Review submitted: October 13, 2012   Date of arrival: August 25, 2012

I loved your home - the view from the kitchen is incredible. Would love to come next year - perhaps in June or July. I had never been to that area and we fell in love with the cute town and ability to walk everywhere.

The view was great and the location was wonderful! That said, the living area was very small, we had 6 adults and 3 small kids. The outside areas were also too small for our family to gather.

Family vacation with parents, siblings, and our children

Review submitted: July 17, 2012   Date of arrival: July 7, 2012

This home was even better than what we expected! The view was amazing. The home owner was very helpful in providing us with information regarding where to eat, what to see, ect, while in the area. The home was very clean and stocked with anything we could have possibly needed. Although the pool looks very small in the photo, it worked fine for all of our children ( ranging in ages from 3-10) at once. We always had all six of them in the pool, and at least an adult or two and it was large enough. We have stayed in the area for many years, and this is just about one of the nicest areas that you can rent in. It is a very secure neighborhood right next to Rosemary, where there is lots of great shopping, eating, ect. I would highly reccommend staying at Starburst. My family and I cannot wait to visit again. It was everything that we hoped it would be and more!

We just finished our one week rental at Starburst and everything was terrific! We could not have been happier with our experience and highly recommend it to anyone contemplating this area. The beach was terrific, the view phenomenal, the beds comfy. The shops and restaurants were fun. The bike trails are amazing. In one word: perfect. We of course hope to be back next year. It all depends on the economy!

Wonderful Week 9/18 through 9/25/10

The views from both of the decks were heavenly and my family spent every evening there listening to the surf and every morning there drinking coffee and watching the sun rise over the gulf. The beds were all comfortable and the kitchen was more than adequate. The owner was a pleasure to do business with. I would recommend this property to anyone who wants a family get-away with lots of room for everyone in its 5 bedrooms.
