Exclusive Beach Access! Home with Fire Pit- Summer Bookings Available! Bikes Included!

If you’re ready for a fun-filled vacay in the middle of 30-a and walking distance to the beach and multiple restaurants, look no further than My Blue Sky, a Gulf-view home in the sought-after Old Blue Mountain Beach neighborhood. Blue Mountain Beach is located between Grayton Beach and Gulf Place. Here you will find everything needed to make your stay a memorable one!

Featuring Exclusive Beach Access, Bikes and a one of a kind fire put, this home is your next vacation spot!

My Blue Sky is a lovely “Old Florida cottage style” beach house with four bedrooms and three and a half baths accommodating up to eight. A twin house with separate owners, you’ll feel right at home amid the cheerful space with whimsical touches and coastal artwork scattered throughout the home. The ground floor features a walk-in bonus shower for removing the day’s sand. The second floor features a living area, kitchen, and screened-in porch, perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails. The fully stocked kitchen features granite countertops with all small appliances and everything needed to prepare snacks for the beach or meals for your group. (Coffee maker is standard, not a Keurig) A full-sized washer and dryer are readily accessible for added convenience on the third floor.

Bedrooms three and four include a queen and bunk beds with a single over a full bed. These bedrooms share a Jack and Jill bath.

fresh smoothies and take out dips and snacks. The Creamery is a must stroll up the street for homemade ice cream. A Publix grocery store is located two miles away on highway 98.

Very easy to deal with. Place was advertised. I would say our only complaints were the floors were not very clean when we arrived, and the refrigerator did not work very well. It needs to probably be replaced.

Feedback

We very much enjoyed our stay in your beautiful home! There are a couple of things that I wanted to let you know about. first, I think the heating element in your dryer isn’t working very well. We had to dry each load 2-3 times to get everything dried. Also, the floors in the house are very dirty. The bottoms of our feet were black each day from the floors, so we had to wash our feet each night to avoid getting the sheets and bedding dirty. The door to the refrigerator was also stained and dirty. Other than that, everything was great!

Feedback

The house was great for our trip and was really well-kept and clean upon arrival. The only two constructive feedback items we can give are: - We never received a response to our question/message on our portal a week in advance of our trip about umbrella/chair rentals. Yet we kept getting emails and texts that we could use the portal to ask any questions we wanted and get a response. Not getting any response at all was disappointing, it took a lot of phone calls and decent effort to track down one company that could provide this service for us. - The dryer doesn\'t dry. Both washing machine and dryer sound like they need to be replaced or repaired. Everything else was great and we\'d come back and stay there in a heartbeat. Thank you!

Gorgeous Home at One of the Best Spots Along 30A

A gorgeous home with a 5-star location, My Blue Sky is hands-down the best property I've rented in all my years vacationing along 30A. Nestled in the Old Blue Mountain Beach neighborhood, this beautiful beach house is seriously close to the beach, plus within walking distance to Blue Mountain Creamery, Red Fish Taco, and Blue Mountain Bakery. The beach access is down a quiet road a half-block away and has fewer steps down than many others. The home's brightly painted interior and large windows give a sense of spaciousness that makes each room fee large and open. The screened in porch is massive and keeps cool, and the jack-and-jill bedrooms are great for a couple with young kids. There is a ground-level shower just inside the front door, plus a hose outside for rinsing off sandy feet. With this house, the list goes on and on. This is the first vacation rental I've stayed in that I could see myself renting again. I made several requests before and during my stay, and the property management company, Scenic Stays, was quick to respond and eager to help.

Hope to Come Back Next Summer

We had a wonderful vacation and would look to rent this property again. A short walk to the beach and the convenience of location for restaurants added to our experience. We especially enjoyed the decor, ice maker and screen porch. The house has been well loved but we appreciated the updates along with comfortable bedding. I was very satisfied with the communication provided by the property management.

Our family had an overall great experience and would rent again. The property management was responsive to any support I needed and I received timely clear instructions for our rental procedures. The location is ideal. A quick walk to the beach entrance made it easy for our family to come and go. The property has been well loved but some updates were appreciated and overall we enjoyed the environment especially the screen porch. Several good restaurants are a short bike ride away along with an ice cream shop.

Amazing!!!

I miss it already!!. What an amazing vacation!.. Having this beautiful home to stay in instead of a hotel was so much more enjoyable and personal. I was able to have one of the best birthdays ive ever had. This house is so close to everything,we barely had to drive anywhere. Your very close to the beach and restaurants and shops and blue mountain is seriously the cutest little place. The house is perfect for a family stay. It was extremely comfortable. The back porch was perfect for coffee in the morning. The beds were so comfy.. after being at the beach all day they were perfect. Maintenance was quick on reponding when we called about one of the upstairs bathrooms. I will definitely be booking this home again in the future. Its really the perfect home for a little getaway.

Review

The location was perfect! The space was also perfect for our mother/daughter beach trip. We especially enjoyed the screened in porch! The decor was so cute and beachy. We absolutely loved the space! However, I rated cleanliness a 4 because we found nails (like trimmed from fingers) in one of the beds when the cover was pulled down and the glasses were really dirty when we went to use them. I also rated condition low. The unit definitely needs updating. We opened the cabinet to get plates out and the whole cabinet door fell off , luckily not hurting anyone. We reattached as best as we could. There are several tiles on the kitchen floor that are cracked and pinch your bare feet if you step on them. The only sliding glass doors we could get opened was the set right near the kitchen table. We did have to oil the track to be able to do that though. The other set downstairs and both sets upstairs could not be opened at all without the door falling sideways or not even budging. The kitchen faucet also spins around when you try to turn it on. It makes it difficult to use unless you use both hands to hold it still and turn it on. Overall, we had an amazing time! The space and the location were perfect! I just wanted to bring these items to your attention bc there are safety hazards as well as just functioning issues when renting. Thank you so much!

Great stay!

This place was very adequate for our group of 8. Perfect location! Very short walk to the beach! Also it’s a walkable distance to ice cream, bakery, and other shops. Neighborhood was very quiet and safe. There is construction on nearby houses currently (June 2023) but none of it was bothersome to us. The only issues we had was there was no cold water available in the kitchen due to a waterline issue. And one of the two sliding doors to the beach was a beast to open. Would be happy to rent in the future!

Great location

The location of this house was the best! We definitely knew what to do if there was a problem as we got plenty of communication. Check in and out was super easy. While the home is older, it was cheerfully appointed and felt beachy. We used the fire pit but I wish there would have been some fire tools on site to maintain the fire a bit more easily. And I wish there was a broom and dustpan in the house as the vacuum didn't cut it for my need to not step in sand throughout the house even though we always took shoes off at the door. We walked with 5 kids easily to Blue Mountain Creamery, Red Fish Taco, Blue Mabel and Blue Mountain Bakery. It was a quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed our stay!

Good Morning, This house is in need of some serious attention. Doors falling off, bannister on deck is need of serious repair, door handles to outside are bad. I understand the owner is in this to make money and time is money but they really need to do some serious upgrades before someone gets hurt. The repair team answered ASAP and fixed the few issues. The location is amazing. You could eat off the floor. Just needs some TLC here and there! Thanks, Brian
