The pictures did not do this adorable place justice. It was perfect for my family of 4. Kye was very friendly and came to meet us. He gave us the tour of how everything worked and made it fun for our teenagers. I loved that it has two twin beds in the second room giving the teenagers a little more space. The place was so cozy with plenty of space for games and conversation. The area in the front and back was so nice to hangout. It had everything you needed for cook meals, going to the beach, and just feel like it was your home. It is so close to the beach, Main Street, and the grocery store. We walked everywhere. We did not want to leave and canโ€™t wait to go back.

Perfect.

I had back house,The Starfish Cottage, and my girlfriend had front house,The Starfish Bungalow. It was a perfect way to spend time together but also have our own retreats. She could have her guests visit and I could have mine with plenty of space because of having use of both patios. It really was ideal. Hosts keep both places spotless and are very attentive to any needs.

Loved the Starfish Bungalow!

Our family stayed at the Starfish Bungalow in Seal Beach and loved the starfish theme and bright orange Dutch door. So fun! The decor is cute and our toddler was kept busy looking for shells which were placed around the property. The fenced yard provides a safe place for little ones to play. Kye and Elena were great hosts and a wealth of information about places to go/eat in Seal Beach. We felt at home during our stay. Until next time!

Seal Beach Gem

Our family is originally from the area and moved out of state in 2016. We came into town as visitors for the first time in 5 years and, knowing the area, we jumped at the chance to stay in Old Town Seal Beach. We loved having stayed at a quintessential beach bungalow that was walkable to Main Street shopping, restaurants and the Beach. The owners, Elena and Kai, have a fabulous little place! We loved the location, the cleanliness, the comfy decor, and the ability to walk to everything! We would definitely stay again, Thank you!

The Starfish Bungalow was convenient to the beach and Main Street (Crema was SO good). Owners were very friendly and quick to respond. If it was any warmer it would have been very uncomfortable without AC but we did okay. Comfortable beds and sheets and well equipped kitchen. Appreciated the wagon and beach towels and umbrella.

Great location and service

We visited in July 2024 for a last minute 4 day beach trip. We had a wonderful experience staying at this property. Very well appointed with a variety of kitchen items and tons of linens, pillows and towels. Owners were very receptive and had outstanding communication with us the entire time. Location is about a block and a half from the beach. The property is clean and well-looked after. Keep in mind the washer and dryer are coin operated and not free so bring a roll of quarters for your stay - each load will run you $2. Also, the property does not have A/C which was not a draw back for our stay but something to be aware of. Thanks Kye & Elena for the great stay!!
