Great spot on a quiet street

We had a wonderful stay! With the private pool and the beach access so close by, Blue Wave Villa provided the perfect setting for our spring break!

Nice and Relaxing

The pool and pool area was amazing. The 3 minute short walk to the gulf beach was great. Place was perfect for 2 people. Had to ride bikes or drive to dinner but overall this was a very convenient place to stay.

Great pool and location

This property had a beautiful pool with lots of tropical trees and plants. There were many beach chairs, umbrellas and sand toys available. The location is perfect, only two blocks to the beach and a block to the trolley.

Great location

Great location close to beach. Pool is lovely and even tho pool is in the front yard it was plenty private with the lush greenery. Unit was clean. But some maintenance issues should be addressed. The toilet does a little ‘ double flush’ …someone 2 years ago mentioned but has yet to be addressed. The pool pump is quite loud. I’d think it hard to sleep in the 2nd bedroom. There is very little information in the unit as to the use of TV/internet. I received a text before checking in warning of a gate alarm and not to turn it off. No such alarm exists. The internet was off when we arrived and after awhile we were able to find the router and reset everything. A little information concerning this would have been appreciated. Access to the unit requires a 10 digit code. If you don’t punch it fast enough it doesn’t work. I finally figured it out but our neighbor had to call VAcasa 3 times. If it has to be 10 digits st least make it the renter’s phone number!

"We had an excellent stay. We hired two adjoining bungalows which worked perfectly for our family gathering. They were in an ideal spot, so we could walk to beach and then walk out for dinner or ice creams in the evening. The bungalows were well furnished, clean and had everything we needed for the house and beach."
