Excellent property. Close to the Beach. Extremely Clean
This property was very clean and well decorated. I felt very comfortable here and slept well. Web had everything we needed and we're only a few minutes away from the beach. The community is quiet. Wish we had stayed longer, but would absolutely book again.

Absolutely Perfect! Highly Recommend!
My stay at Blue Haven by the Sea was superb. The house was immaculate, spacious, well decorated, and made me feel right at home. The location was also very convenient and so close to everything you need, including the beach! I also had to work a bit on this trip, and the home had a room with a desk which made a perfect office, and the WIFI was reliable, so I didn't run into any issues on my video calls. Will definitely book again!

An Absolute Gem
If you are searching for a true gem, a home away from home, or your own personal retreat, consider Blue Haven by the Sea. From the moment we stepped inside we felt at home and at peace. This property was an amazing place to stay for our entire family. The rooms were beautifully decorated and well appointed. In addition to three spacious bedrooms, this location offers a quiet office and complimentary high speed internet as well as a sleeper/sofa if you need a fourth place for someone to rest. Amenities near and around the property were plentiful. Minutes away were walking/bike paths, coffee shops, and restaurants for both casual and fine dining. We were able to prepare a few "home cooked" meals since the kitchen is fully equipped. There are multiple public beach access points only minutes away from the property (less than 5 minutes away!) with free parking nearby. Beach locations we visited were pristine and the water was some of the clearest we've ever seen. We skipped the beach once during our week long stay and took advantage of the amazing pool area, sauna, and tower with breathtaking views of the Gulf. You won't be disappointed. There truly was something available for everyone.
