With older kids now married, and not living near home - this was a great place to gather and enjoy christmas together (away from wisconsin cold). The pool was GREAT and warm. and when the heater stopped working - the property management company responded very quickly to resolve. Location is GREAT and house is in good shape. Speakers in the bathroom lights were a bonus (teenage son thought it was a hoot). Definitely recommend this property. To many things to list that were right for us.

The only negative was the lack of communication with Vrbo. We were never notified of the check in info. We had to get it from the home owner.

I booked this house for a family trip and was not disappointed. The pictures are accurate: house is clean, great appliances in the kitchen, clean pool and cute decorations throughout the home. The owners did not skimp on anything. Beds are super comfy too! This house is a very short walk to the beautiful white sands of Pensacola. Added bonus was experiencing the Blue Angels fly by as we swam! The only issues we had were a little confusion about checking in; there is a lock box on the front door, but we actually had to pick up the keys at a local realty place. We also had to fill the propane take for the grill as it was left empty, but thankfully there is a gas station less than a block away. The owner was very responsive when we had some pool heating issues and it was resolved quickly. I would highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a beach getaway. It would be great for young kids as well, and we did feel guilty leaving the kids behind (school already in session), but it was nice to go out on the town to the local bars and not worry about whose getting up early with them. This area is a great mix of older and newer beach town. Plenty of great restaurants and souvenir shops. We will definitely be back and would love to rent Bella Blue again!

Bella Blue exceeded our expectations! Beautiful property. The private pool was immaculate. Just steps from the beach. I will definitely be staying again.

The house was immaculate. Loved the decor. Had a beach vacation vibe throughout. Everyone enjoyed the pool too as the weather did not allow swimming or playing at the ocean. Would definitely recommend.

This house accommodates so many people and the layout gives a lot of room to space out. Furnishings are beautiful and comfortable and the pool area is such a bonus. It’s a quick walk to the beach in one direction and shops and restaurants in the other.

The location of this house is perfect. A short 3min walk to the beach and right on the main road with plenty of bars and restaurants within walking distance too. The elevator was perfect for our family member with mobility issues and two of the bathrooms have walk in showers with a bench. The pool was perfect for the kids and adults. It was chilly a few days of our stay but the pool automatically heats to a nice temperature which was so nice. The owner was very responsive and friendly. It was the perfect spring break stay.

Bella Blue is fantastic! Pictures do not do it justice! Spotless and kitchen well stocked, so close to shops and restaurants, and just a short walk to the beach. The pool is a huge plus! Bunk beds were a great addition! Joe is wonderful to work with and super quick to respond to any questions we had. Our stay was absolutely amazing, and we cannot wait to book again!

We had an amazing stay and owner was great to work with!

Would definitely stay here again. Lots of room in the house...short walk to beach and short drive to all restaurants. The pool was fabulous for the kids when they needed a break from the beach. You may want to check out the washer... it makes very loud noises when in use.

This was an awesome experience! The Beach House was beautiful, very clean and well maintained! Pool was great and proximity to the beach made it very easy to enjoy sunrises and sun sets! The elevator for my handicapped husband was a God send! Bedrooms/bathrooms well located for our family of 9. Highly recommend! We loved it!!

This is the ONLY place to stay on Pensacola Beach! The house is beyond beautiful. The decor is amazing and quite honestly, my group all agreed the pictures do not do it justice but maybe a video would. It is way better in person. It was such a wonderful atmosphere that we didn’t want to leave. The location is the best on the island. It is in the first residential block on the ocean side and was very walkable to restaurants, shops, bars and of course the beach. The owner is so friendly and called to make sure we knew how to use everything. He was very easy to work with. As you can tell, I just don’t have enough nice things to say about Bella Blue and my group can’t wait to come back year after year. If you rent any other beach house, you are missing out!

This house is amazing, the pictures do not do it justice!! Beach access was very convenient, super short walk behind the house. The heated pool was our favorite spot, especially since we came in March, the ocean was pretty cold still. Our kids loved it. Upon arrival, the house was very clean and welcoming. The decor and layout of the house is perfect. The master suite upstairs is HUGE with a balcony that overlooked to the ocean. We shared the house with two other families and there was plenty of room. The property manager was super helpful and gave us a few recommendations on where to eat. We would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful time staying at Bella Blue! Really cannot beat the only two minutes from the beach and five min walk to shopping/restaurants. Loved the pool area and outdoor shower was perfect for getting the sand and pool water off. Plenty of space to kick back and relax. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook as much or little as we wanted and beds were very comfortable. Decor is a cute beach theme and loved the bright colors. The rental was undergoing renovations and Joe did a great job communicating with us about the issues. We did get to enjoy the new master bed carpet, loft beds and other renovations that had been completed. Also appreciated how fast the pool heater got repaired...a necessity in February. Overall a super vacation and we would definitely consider renting this property again.Two things the property management company could’ve done that would’ve made it a better experience. Even though a pool heating fee is standard when renting, it should be part of the pool contract and the renter made aware of the cost given that it’s significant. Also, a folder with information on where to find things and how to use them would’ve been helpful ie pool lights, stereo ect. They could’ve also included in the folder fun activities, sights, shopping and restaurants. Just my two cents.

We really enjoyed the house. Close to everything and has everything!

Wonderful !! Everything was fantastic includiing the decor. i can't say enough about it!!

This was one of the best and most relaxing vacations we've taken in a long time. The house was absolutely amazing. Beautifully kept, the kitchen was extremely well equipped and the pool was fabulous. It was a blessing and a privilege to spend our time there and we hope to return.

Everything was great

Beautiful spacious home! Easy quick walk to the beach which was perfect! Kid friendly and we will be back!

This is our second visit and plan to return next year. Perfect house for older people or small children. Short walk to the beach, great pool and decorated very cute. Great location, owner very easy to work with. Love it!

House worked out well for our group of 6 adults and two children. Kitchen pretty well tricked out with everything you might need. Pool and pool area a great combo of enough sun as well as covered area/seating for adults. We ate dinner down there every night as it was pleasant and breezy. Two covered parking areas were a definite plus. The third floor is a nice quiet retreat for grandparents and/or room for extra kids with it's trundle in the bedroom and sleeping futon in the lounge area. Largest issue for me was that we had no wifi the entire week and unfortunately had family members trying to work while there. Was not fixed until last day. Very frustrating. Also, this house is managed by a rental agency, which is not an issue and they were very nice and accommodating, but once I had paid, the owner no longer replied to my communications. Also, the 5:00 pm check-in is the latest I've ever experienced. The area where the house is located is perfect, the beach beautiful and quiet considering the proximity of hotels and condos.

Pool landscaping is fantastic. The shaded area is a real plus. The fans in the den are outstanding .
