We have just returned from a one week stay at Blue Bay and it was wonderful. There were 2 families staying here and we had lots of space. We were concerned about how much sun/shade there would be around pool but this was not an issue at all. It does need a little bit of TLC but a coat of paint is all that it really needs and did not spoil this fabulous property. The location was perfect and we enjoyedthe sunrise in the mornings and storms over Tampa bay in the afternoon/evenings. Trolley Bus connected us to any part of the island but was only a short 15 minute walk to Bean Point. Would definitely recommend this place.

We loved the house. Every one had plenty of space. We had the best vacation ever.

This is a great family vacation home for large families. Oceanfront water views. Awesome

The kitchen doesn't have many tools, most of the pans are small. the guest house has a very strong smell, like houses that are closed for a long time. There is no bathroom in the pool area and the beach in front of the house is not good. If you want to go to the beach you have to go by car

Bad experience We got there and there was no air conditioner and no body care to fix it We had to leave early

The pictures of the property are older. The furnishings are beat up and old. The beds are rock hard and the sheets were ROUGH!! When we arrived, the property had been checked by someone who signed off and left a note that everything was perfect, but the pool was FILTHY and the floors in the house were gritty with sand. The AC was not functioning at all. The baseboards and trim have a years worth or more of dust on them. When we went to go to bed the first night, two rooms had visibly dirty sheets on them - one was full of sand and another had a brown crunchy stain. Disgusting situation. The property management company did get the AC “fixed” before we went to bed the first night, but it would not cool below 79-71 degrees and the humidity stayed very high in the house. They sent someone the next day to change all the sheets. They were responsive to our requests, but for what we paid these items should never had been an issue. The house was not stocked very well with any supplies-one dish towel and one dish cloth for the kitchen. No pot holders. Not enough silverware for one day of meals. The front door handle was in bad shape and took work to get it to latch and lock every time it was opened. Several of the kitchen cabinets were broken and drawers in the freezer were broken. The TVs in several rooms did not work. Many light bulbs in the house were burnt out and the lights would flicker throughout the house. The main TV in the living room had cable, but it kept cutting out.

Our 3 sons and their families joined us to help celebrate our 50th anniversary. Everyone had a wonderful time. The house was great. Just perfect for our families.

This property should get the highest rating , managed very well! Just what it looked like. Very nice!
