The pool and pool area was amazing. The 3 minute short walk to the gulf beach was great. Place was perfect for 2 people. Had to ride bikes or drive to dinner but overall this was a very convenient place to stay.

Wonderful pool and close to breach
We loved staying at Blue Waves Villa West! The things we really enjoyed were the private heated pool, a three minute walk to the beach, a private washer/dryer, updated kitchen, one block from a trolley stop and quiet neighborhood.
This property had a beautiful pool with lots of tropical trees and plants. There were many beach chairs, umbrellas and sand toys available. The location is perfect, only two blocks to the beach and a block to the trolley.

"We had an excellent stay. We hired two adjoining bungalows which worked perfectly for our family gathering. They were in an ideal spot, so we could walk to beach and then walk out for dinner or ice creams in the evening. The bungalows were well furnished, clean and had everything we needed for the house and beach."
