StarLab '86 -Downtown Pet Friendly
Welcome to StarLab '86 A Retro Sci-Fi Hideaway Where the Gravity’s Optional. Hidden somewhere between a Cold War fever dream and the pilot episode of a lost ‘80s sci-fi series, Starlab ‘86 is your launchpad to the absurd, the surreal, and the spectacularly neon.
Step into this fully themed vacation rental, where every detail feels plucked from a VHS tape you weren't supposed to find.
Drift off in a spaceship-themed king-size bed, surrounded by glowing panels, ambient lights, and subtle tech detailing that makes you feel like you’re en route to Alpha Centauri. The control consoles don’t actually control anything (we think), but the vibes are interstellar.
For extra crew members, there’s a sleek Murphy bed in the main habitat chamber, perfect for mission specialists, space smugglers, or friends just along for the gravity ride.
Inspired by the digital frontier of films like TRON, the orange-glowing floor grid pulses gently beneath your feet, casting an otherworldly glow through the space. You’re not walking on tile—you’re walking on data.
Even the bathroom defies explanation. Peer up from the tiled enclosure and you’ll see planets orbiting overhead, subtly lit as if your being bathed in star dust.
Tucked into the heart of the lab, the kitchen is quietly efficient, built for function with a strange elegance. The epoxy countertops shimmer with embedded planets, like a star map frozen under glass. The layout is streamlined, as if designed by someone preparing for long-term isolation. Drinking from beakers might make your chemistry teacher mad but here you are encouraged to experiment.
Starlab ‘86 isn’t just a stay—it’s a scene. A place that feels plucked from a forgotten reel of celluloid and reassembled by someone who almost remembered how everything was supposed to work.
Book now—before the transmission fades out.
