How to Stargaze from Your Cabin Deck or Beach Blanket

Some of the most magical moments on a staycation happen after the sun goes down. At Revel Inn Rentals, when the world quiets and the sky turns velvet-dark, the real show begins — a twinkling blanket of stars overhead.

Whether you're nestled in our forest hideaway (The Nest) or stretched out on the sand at our beachside bungalow (Treasure Coast Hideaway), here’s how to make the most of stargazing at your home-away-from-home.

Stargazing at The Nest: Your Forest Planetarium 🌠

There’s nothing like stepping outside your cabin into the crisp night air, wrapped in a blanket, with a mug of cocoa in hand. With minimal light pollution and a big open sky above the trees, The Nest is perfect for spotting constellations.

Pro Tips for Forest Stargazing:
🌟 Bring a star map or app like SkyView to help you ID what’s above
🌟 Use a flashlight with red light mode to protect your night vision
🌟 Set up on a cozy lounger or the deck with pillows and a blanket
🌟 Keep your camera ready — you might catch a shooting star

Stargazing by the Beach: Stars + Sea Breeze = Pure Bliss

At Treasure Coast Hideaway, stargazing becomes a full-body experience. The sound of the waves, the feel of the cool sand, and the salty breeze turn a simple night sky into something unforgettable.

Pro Tips for Beach Stargazing:
🌟 Lay out a beach blanket, towel, or even a yoga mat
🌟 Bring snacks and a thermos — stargazing picnics are a vibe
🌟 Look for planets near the horizon — they shine the brightest
🌟 Listen to a calming playlist or go all-in on the ocean sounds

Make It a Memory

Want to level it up? Try:
✨ Bringing binoculars for a closer view
✨ Journaling what you see (or how it makes you feel)
✨ Making a wish on the first star you see — just because

Ready to Watch the Sky in Style?

At Revel Inn, nightfall isn’t the end of the day — it’s just the beginning of a different kind of wonder. Whether you’re gazing up from a rustic cabin deck or sandy beach towel, your staycation under the stars will be one for the books.

So grab your blanket, cue the stargazing playlist, and let the sky put on a show.
