We spent my birthday at starcove and felt like we were in our own house. Mick made us feel comfortable from the very beginning. The furnishings were beautiful and we had everything we needed. Dinner at the Square Grouper was nearby and delicious. We also recommend dinners and Sunday brunch at Little Palm Island!!!!!! What a treat.Recommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway, girls getaway.
Owner response: Hello Nancy, I am extremely happy to hear you and your family enjoyed your getaway. Looking forward to assisting you and your family plan your next trip! Regards, Ivelice Ramirez Luxury Travel Planner

Dear Ivelice~ I want to write and tell you how much we enjoyed our stay at Starcove. It was lovely, far exceeding my expectations. The whole family enjoyed it and was very warm and restful. I'd love to say we will be back , but as my daughter is expecting her first child, I guess it will be 12 years? Let me know if that changes. Property manager, Mick was great and very responsive to questions. Everything ran smoothly and the house is spectacular.Owner response: Hello Lori, Congratulations! I excited for you and your family who are all counting the days to receive your newest member I am sure. I am thrilled to hear you and your family enjoyed your getaway at StarCove. I will most certainly be checking in with you and the new baby . I sincerely look forward to assisting you and your family plan your next getaway. Regards, Ivelice Ramirez Luxury Travel Planner

We have stayed at several luxury estates in the middle and lower keys and nothing compares to this property!! There is a beautiful gourmet kitchen and the home is well appointed with Tommy Bahama furniture throughout. It is the outdoor area however that makes this property superior to all others. It is tropically landscaped, the pool is large with three waterfalls and the fire pit was great in the evening. The property manager was great too...anytime we called he was there within the hour. We enjoyed this property so much we are going back next year.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway.

My family and I just spent a week at this wonderful house. We had a great time. There is something for everyone there...kayaks, ping pong, darts, fooseball, pool, firepit, a dock for fishing. It's close enough to go to Key West whenever you want. We rented the 21 foot Carolina skiff and went to Picnic Island and to the snorkel reef right off of Little Palm Key. The house itself is amazing. It's perfect for 2 or 3 couples and a couple of kids. All you need to take is clothes and beach towels. Thanks for a great week.Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

This is a beautiful home with everything you need to have a great vacation. It was very clean and well-stocked. If food was included, you could call this an all-inclusive resort! Our family took advantage of all the amenities - from playing ping-pong and darts to roasting marshmallows on the fire pit to renting the boat for fishing and tubing. We all loved the pool so much that we only went to a beach one time and only one time into Key West. You just don't want to leave this great house and pool. It is also in a great location. Easy to get to, but also very private and quiet. There are lots of great places to eat nearby, too. We loved the Square Grouper, the Wharf, No Name Pub and Mango Mama's. Grocery shopping is close by and fresh seafood to buy and cook. We would love to return to this fun place.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with young children.

I can not say enough about how wonderful our stay was at StarCove!! This home is a like a dream. Everything you could possibly desire is right here, it's private and quiet with a water view you can only dream about. It has the pool and a beach area that are beyond compare. Morning walks on the dock offered us a chance to see a multitude of Fish, Dolphins, Sting Rays, Lobster and even a small Shark swam right below us! The home is furnished with an obvious attention to detail and style, everything is first rate and everything you could want is here! The photos and previous reviews are right on target..this is your own private Five Star Resort!!!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway.

I am a luxury travel consultant and have stayed at many 5 star resorts, and would maybe give a 6th star to just a few, Star Cove would be at the top of that list. This property is a casually elegant jewel that sits in a privately lush setting. The house lends itself to being a singles and couples resort or a corporate retreat and has all of the amenities that a family would love as well. Believe me the pictures that you see on this sight are true to life! The pool area is landscaped as well as any beautiful resort I have visited and you can literally walk into the pool and swim up to the waterfall. Beyond the pool is another back yard fit for playing or just relaxing by the fire pit while enjoying a great barbaque with the view and sounds of the ocean behind you and the ablilty to walk over the water on your own private dock. This is a property that I would recommend to my most discerning clients...don't miss it it is Virtuoso!Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.
