The house was clean but the floors were very dirty. Our socks and feet were constantly black from the dirty floors. Couldn’t let my baby play on the floor. Everything else was clean. Wish they provided beach towels since it’s a beach house. Not even enough toilet paper or trash bags provided. No cleaning supplies in the house. Nice and safe neighborhood overall, family friendly. Responsive management.

Hang, thanks so much for staying with us and for the honest feedback! We’re really happy to hear you enjoyed the house and the neighborhood, but we’re super sorry about the condition of the floors and the lack of supplies — that’s not the experience we want for anyone, especially with a little one. We’ve already talked with our cleaning team and updated our checklist to make sure the floors are thoroughly cleaned between every stay, and we’re adding basics like toilet paper, and trash bags. There should have been enough to get you through the first 24 hours of your stay in time for you to be able to get to the store for the rest of your stay. We truly appreciate you pointing these things out so we can improve, and we’d love the chance to host you again for a much smoother stay next time!

Perfect House for a relaxing month at Santa Rosa Beach

We really enjoyed our month stay at Stars Hollow. The area was so quiet and accommodations were excellent. We especially enjoyed the nice kitchen with modern appliances, and master bath. So nice to be within walking distance to the beach, and Goatfeathers and other restaurants and shops.We so appreciated the manager's quick response to our questions. Would stay again!

Relaxed Spring Break

A convenient location on 30A away from the crowds and craziness of Rosemary & Seaside. Used the gulf view access behind Goatfeathers and felt like there was plenty of room to spread out. Easy check in and rental credit was an added bonus!

Little Piece of Paradise

Stars Hollow was a great house in a perfect location! The neighborhood has two pools, one being very convenient to our house. The house was close to everything we love down there. I would highly recommend Stars Hollow to anyone, and we will hopefully be booking again this summer!

Family Vacation

Stars Hollow was well-equipped, clean and comfortable. The only negative was the grill was falling apart and basically not functional which was super disappointing. We only needed to contact the property manager once and they responded promptly. We enjoyed our visit!

Great location

We enjoyed our stay at Stars Hollow. It’s in a great location on 30A with the beach and restaurants nearby. The neighborhood is great with a gated entrance and two swimming pools. We loved that Stars Hollow is in the back of the neighborhood so it’s quiet and peaceful. We had ample room for our group with three bedrooms and the built in bunks in the hall. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals and the laundry room was a wonderful plus. Minus a couple of small repairs needed, Stars Hollow is a 10.

Stars Hollow

The house was nice and perfect for us. Need to have some oven mitts available but otherwise had plenty of supplies. The flooring has some gaps in it but didn’t bother us. It’s a 15 minute walk to beach and Shunk Gulley. We rented a golf cart which was great. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. Plenty of overflow parking and several pools.

Nice Clean House

The house was well furnished and clean. My girlfriend, 2 adult sons, and my dog enjoyed our 1 week stay. I think the house was a over-priced compared to what my other relatives paid for similar houses in the same neighborhood, but that may be because I waited later in the year to rent. Overall, it was a nice rental.

This house needs a lot of maintenance ie the upstairs bath was clogged up and the door wouldn't open and close properly, the water in the master shower never reached a hot temperature, the outdoor shower didn't have water pressure and the owner had the couch cushions steam cleaned upon the day of our arrival so they were unusable for the first 24 hours of our stay. The house needs a lot of updates.

Will definitely be back to Stars Hollow!

We loved our stay at Stars Hollow Cottage- and this Gilmore Girls fan loved the name :) It was the perfect size for our group. We felt that we had plenty of room and especially loved this large size of the kitchen. It was also the perfect location at Santa Rosa Beach. We ended driving to both of the public beach accesses but that was only because we had a lot of things to carry with us. But it was easily walkable and we walked into town a few times. I communicated a couple questions before our trip and they were answered very promptly which I really appreciated. We are already planning a return trip and have the Stars Hollow Cottage in mind!

Ad wasn’t accurate

We have been coming to the area for 15 years and have not had to write a negative review before, so we really hate to make this our first. We had two families staying together and needed all the beds to make this work. We were honest in selecting our children that were 13 and older as adults, so we thought that was taken into consideration on bed situations. This was not the case. The bunk beds are not full length, which was not stated in the description anywhere! This false advertisement led to some of our party having to make other arrangements last minute in a high peak season to find alternate sleeping arrangements. We called the property management company but when we checked in it was after hours and the weekend to follow. Someone called us back during the weekend but was unable to help us and took down our information to give to the manager of the property to reach out to us on Monday. Monday came and went and there was no call. By Tuesday we had to call back ourselves and were argued with over the bed situation with no apologies. There were other problems with the house that we would have overlooked given the bed situation would have been accurate, but since they weren’t we feel the need to point those out as well. The front door is a fire hazard as the door knob only turns one way and is very difficult to turn bc it’s small and tight against the door. There were times people couldn’t get out. In short, the ad was false and the management was no help.

Dear Diana, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the challenges you faced during your stay and regret that your experience did not meet your expectations. We understand how important accurate descriptions are when planning a trip, and we are sorry for any inconvenience caused by the bunk bed situation. It is a normal sized bunk bed. Not an extra-long one but a normal sized one. It states in the listing that it is twin sized. Regarding the communication issues, we deeply regret the delay in addressing your concerns and the frustration this caused. This is not the level of service we strive to provide, and we will work with our team to improve responsiveness and ensure guest concerns are handled promptly. We also take your comments about the front door very seriously. The front door has been evaluated and in not in any type of hazard. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve, and we hope you might consider staying with us again in the future so we can provide you with the experience you deserve.
