Really enjoyed our stay at The Blue Sea Star! You really can’t beat the location and proximity to jetty, playground and beach. Travelled with two littles and could walk / wagon easily. A few minor suggestions to truly be a perfect/exceptional stay. Would recommend this property for families.

Great location, Amazing views

Firstly the host was very responsive, which really made arrival and check out and everything in between stress free. House was clean with games and more. Ample relaxing places in and out. The views of the passing boats on the Getty, were breathtaking and so peaceful from the wrap around patio. Access to the beach just steps away. We really enjoyed our stay! Just what we needed!

Perfect Layout and Location

We stayed at the Blue Sea Star to celebrate my son’s birthday. It was the perfect set up for our group. So spacious, clean, and decorated so well! The location was perfect - only steps away from the beach and the jetty. It was quiet and peaceful. Most of all I appreciate Tam’s excellent communication and hospitality. We live in Magnolia and happened to lose power the day we were leaving to be at the beach. Tam set us up early to make sure we had somewhere to go with power and AC. I would highly recommend the Blue Sea Star!
