We loved it! Good location! Wonderful back porch, pool, and yard. Complimentary beach setup is a great perk. Loved Oversee thermal cups and towels. Outdoor furniture needs cleaning and shrubs around driveway could use a trim. Otherwise, very nice!
Loved the stay at this property. Short walk to the beach. Ice cream next door. Tacos across the street. More food just down the road. Couldn't ask for a better location. House was clean and plenty of room for our vacation of 8. Amazing deck and pool out back. Definitely a great stay.
We have stayed all over 30A from Blue Mountain to Rosemary. This is hands down the BEST place we have ever stayed! Absolutely the best location, next to the Blue Mountain Ice Creamery, a three minute walk to the beach, with daily set up and our own pool. The house was spotless upon arrival and well stocked better than any other place we have stayed. The rental agency was phenomenal. We can't wait to return.
If we werenât at the beach, the outdoor space with the pool is where we spent most of our time! The location is great! The pictures posted make the living room look a lot bigger than it really is. It was overall a great home!
While the town and location (distance from the beach) were great, the location of the house was less than ideal for noise level during the night. In the overnight hours every night, loud motorcycles and cars would drive by VERY loudly. We were awakened multiple times overnight. This was only heard in the master bedroom facing the road.
Also, we had booked this rental specifically for the pool and for the pool to be heated. We were assured the pool would be "nice and warm" when we arrived. Unfortunately, it was freezing. We called the morning after to let them know and they said it would be checked out. The next day we saw 2 people enter the backyard and check the pool. We assumed they were fishing the pool heater. Still, never warming up we called again. We were told there was a part missing and they were fixing it. Still not warm the next day and they said there actually was not a pool heater present at the time. They did refund our money, but going in November, we specifically chose this house and gladly spent extra money for our children to be able to swim.
On Monday, we received a phone call from management that the owner needed to get a window replaced and asked if we would mind letting the glass company do this. We complied after being told it would take about twenty minutes. Coming back from the beach to the house with 2 of my children, we saw a man working outside replacing a window and walked inside to find another worker EATING OUR FOOD FROM BREAKFAST THAT MORNING (biscuits, gravy, and eggs). WHAT?????? Then, he proceeded to apologize, state to me he was hungry (not sure if I responded was in shock) and he went back outside. A few minutes later he barged back in using our door code to let me know they were unable to replace the window in the back at this time. I immediately called management for a new door code and thankfully received one within minutes.
A few mornings later a tree cutting company comes to the home, blocks in both of our vehicles and starts (loudly enough to wake up my napping baby) trimming trees all around the house. We asked them to stop or leave to which they replied we weren't the owners so they would not comply nor move their vehicles so we could leave. This went on for 2 hours. We contacted management, who apologized and tried unsuccessfully to get them to leave so refunded us $300.
Management were pleasant to talk to and I believe tried to help us, just too many discrepancies.
We have small children, and I was very concerned about a safe property. There are several locks on all doors, and a locked gate around the pool. Laundry was right off the pool and very helpful! Split bedroom setup made it very easy to host family and not be in our way. My only complaint is there was ONE kitchen towel, so we had to buy a lot of paper towels! Walkable to great restaurants and literally on the same street as the beach- we walked to sunset every day!
We enjoyed this house very much! Super close to the beach, you can walk but we rented a golf
cart with having all our stuff. Plenty of room
for all of us. We had 3 families. Each family had their own bathroom. The pool was huge and
excellent deck for hanging out! It is right next
door to the ice cream shop so parents should be
aware however it didnât bother us. I would say the only downside is the traffic on Blue Mountain Road. People drive really fast. All in all fantastic house and location.
Baby blue was just as described. Very clean at check in, spacious and great location . Very short walk to blue mountain beach. Pool was a life saver with the kids when they got tired of the sand. The only negative i noticed is that it was minimally stocked ...(ex: no dish rags). We had 5 kids under 12 and 5 adults . Worked well for all !
Check in was seamless, house was beautiful and clean! The beds were super comfortable (not always the case). Property managers were prompt and polite in answering questions before and during our stay. Short walk down the road to the beach. Pool and back porch were amazing!
Baby Blue is a wonderfully remodeled home with a near perfect location. We loved being right next to the creamery and the shake shack for doughnuts. The living spaces were much larger than the pictures communicated to us. There were layers of safety with regard to the pool. There was a high lock on the backdoor to the porch and the safety fences around the pool were difficult for children. This helped us sleep with ease. We lived on the deck and in the pool since we arrived as a tropical depression landed in Louisiana and the beaches were closed in Blue Mountain. The house was well laid out for younger children. We did have trouble ordering food to go in the middle of Covid, but that has more to do with the restaurants than the house.
I think the biggest draw back would be the bathroom setup. The bunk room should be downstairs and one of the queen beds should be upstairs. It makes no sense for a bunk room to have a private bathroom while adults share the full bath downstairs. This doesn't spoil the vacation by any means, but this did keep us from booking the same location next year when there will be three small families with young children.
Side note: A downstairs bed has a box springs on it and shouldn't. It made the bed unstable. We slept with it directly on the bed frame with springs and it was just fine.
This property was better than expected. The house was one of the cleanest that we have ever rented in 30A. The house is light and bright and perfect for a family of four. The backyard and outdoor covered deck are huge with plenty of seating. The creamery right next door got a little loud in the evenings......but quieted down quickly after they closed. On the bright side.....coffee, doughnuts, and ice cream are right next door!
The beach is at the end of the street....it was really easy to get to especially with a golf cart.
We really enjoyed this sweet house and will definitely be back again!
