We thoroughly enjoyed our second time staying at this lovely property. The location can’t be beat, so close to the beach. I loved sitting on balcony drinking coffee or wine and seeing and hearing the ocean. We hope to return again.
This was the perfect place for our family vacation. Property was very clean and perfect location for the beach and activities. Would definitely stay here again!
This unit was so beautiful and very clean. Michelle is very responsive to any needs you have and gets back with you quickly. The location is convenient to so many restaurants and the beach. We love Blue Surf!
The perfect Spring Break for our family of 5 and furbaby. The townhouse was lovely. It had ample and up-to-date furniture for our family. This home is located directly across from the beach. The outdoor pool is heated and very clean. Nights are quiet. We will be back!
We booked this trip kinda last minute. The property was as advertised. Location and access to the beach was great. The area is very quiet also. Will be staying here again
Great condo and great location. We were able to walk across the street for dinner, walk further down for ice cream and not a bad walk to a coffee shop. The condo itself was perfect for our family. Very comfortable/home feel.

Great Place
This was our second year here and we would certainly recommend this property. The unit is well equipped and will quickly feel like home. Owners couldn't be better and quickly responded to any issues. We would highly recommend this property.
We had a wonderful stay! There were a few circumstantial issues, but the property manager was super accessible, available, and helpful to resolve any need. The property is small which makes getting from your condo to the beach that much quicker!
We enjoyed our stay so much! The place was exactly as it was described and so much more! The townhome is beautiful, with a wonderful view. Michelle was a pleasure to rent from. She was super friendly and understanding when it came to me bringing my pet. I would absolutely rent from her again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this quaint condo. The location was perfect. The place was very clean and well-supplied. We appreciated being across the street from the beach. Dining and shopping was close by and so convenient. We really appreciate that we could bring our fur babies. Michelle responded quickly to questions. I would highly recommend staying here.
This property was so nice. Very clean and close to water. It was very quiet inside the property. You couldn't hear the outside noise from others at the property. That was a huge plus for us! Michelle was very nice and helpful. We are already planning a trip back and will for sure stay at the property.
We completely enjoyed our stay in Blue Surf #5!!! Steps away from the beach with beach service included. The unit was clean and cozy! Check in and out processes were easy. Michelle was very responsive and pleasant to work with. We will definitely be back!!!
This rental was exactly what I was looking for. Just steps away from the beach, I will definitely be returning. Michelle was very responsive with the emails. Never had a problem with communicating with them.
The location of Blue Surf is perfect. Right on the beach, you have a access to Pompano Joes for food (and drink if you run out during the day), and immediate access to Driftwood street which runs north/south for quickly getting onto the main east/west highway.
The unit was probably the nicest I’ve ever stayed in. In particular, you can tell they pay attention to detail. Everything about it was just nice, and dare I say perfect. I usually find minor faults with most places but I am at a loss to complain about anything for once. You get what you pay for I would say. We definitely hope to stay here again.
To the owners: WELL DONE. And, the “little things” you did to the place were noticed, and made a difference.

Great location, beautiful view, and perfect for family.
Just as pix showed. Location is not too commercialized but close enough that we could walk to coffee shop in am or little shops, and still just sit on balcony and enjoy ocean view with no highrises blocking view. Pool is just steps away. We traveled with 2 small kids so location in complex was perfect. We could walk back and forth from pool for anything we needed. Owners were amazing to work with. Answered any questions I had by next day at latest. They gave me personal cell and texted me when we arrived to make sure we didn't need anything. The condo is also stocked with all your basic essentials, laundry, bathroom, kitchen supplies, even zip locks for leftovers. We have rented many places over the years and the owners here were the best to work with.
Great location in terms of easy to walk to the beach. Property itself was really clean and family friendly. Loved the layout of the condo and that we could see the ocean from the balcony. Things I could do without were how crazy and loud Scenic Gulf drive was. I thought it was more of family area but lots of crazy kids at night, yelling and honking and drag racing down the street just outside our condo. I never saw the pool cleaned once in the 6 days, 5 nights we were there and I can tell that it needed to be cleaned and probably backwashed, especially since everyone on the property shares that one pool and typically comes to get in the pool after they've been at the beach. Also the beach was VERY crowded at our location and although there was chair and umbrella setup included with our stay, they are set up literally on top of each other, like the umbrellas touch side by side in a line so we were uncomfortably close to other ppl next to us..like being in an airplane but with sand.. we didn't have a choice or option to ask the set up guy to put our chairs in a certain spot...that was irritating.
