All Around Excellent

Condo and property were 5-star clean and tidy. It was a very busy weekend when we were in town and having a pool and deck that were away from all the hustle and bustle made an amazing weekend!

Great sunshine get away

The owners were great about communication both before and during my stay. The condo is definitely one of the better ones I've stayed at. Spacious and fully equipped with whatever you may need. I spent most of my days in the chairs on the dock reading and watching all types of boats go by. Perfect relaxation I needed. Will definitely be back!

This unit is in a great location a short walk to the beach and in our case FLIBS at Bahia Marina. We enjoyed waking up and taking our coffee to the ICW to watch the boats and ease into the day. Very clean and well appointed. A bonus was that my wife left some jewelry after we checked out - the turnover team located it and we made arrangements for its return - thank you. We will be back on our next visit.

Terrific owners

Our booking went very easy and at one point i had a few questions and Rob was quick to respond…so nice. The payment all went very smooth and professionally and the follow up a few days before check in was very thorough and informative. There would be no problem following their directions and entering condo. We had a few issues that delayed us and both Rob and Kate were very nice with reaching out and keeping in touch with us. For this reason we were unable to complete our trip With our experience i would have no problem booking again also referring others to this condo. It’s nice that there are people that stilll care.

Perfect Getaway

This property was beautiful. Location was amazing. Escaping the January freeze with all the comforts of home - spacious, comfortable and well-appointed with everything you need. This condo is perfectly placed on the intercostal - tucked away and quiet. The pool temps were great, even on cooler days and the beach and great restaurants are all a short walk away. We’d stay here again and again. Thanks for being wonderful hosts, Rob and Kitty!

Blue Octopus vacation

Had a great stay at the Blue Octopus, property is in a great location one block from the beach, restaurants, shops. Added bonus is the location on the intercostal water. You can sit on the back dock/deck and watch the yachts drive by or take a short walk to the beach/restaurants. The unit was very clean and plenty of room for two people. Manager was easy to work with and communication was easy. Definitely would go back to this property.
