This is our 4th year staying in this home. It is so nice having two full sized kitchens and living spaces . Our large family was able to enjoy both sides comfortably.The small children could walk easily to the beach . The pool was wonderful to come and relax in after a hot day on the beach . We will definitely be back next year!

We absolutely loved the Blur Grotto for our group of seven friends turning 60. Very well stocked kitchens and pool area and plenty of beach towels and beach chairs. Being only a short two block walk to the beach was ideal. The beach was uncrowded and wonderful for floating and beach walks. Our hosts communicated well. Definitely a place we would love to come back to!

This home is perfect!! We had 8 adults and a 5 year old in our party. Every couple had their own bedroom and bathroom. Having two living rooms was awesome! We prefer to dine in most evenings and having two kitchens helped out tremendously. This home is stocked with anything and everything you need, whether you need cooking supplies or beach supplies, it’s all there. The host was great to communicate with. We will for sure stay here again next year.

Blue Grotto was the perfect beach vacation home for our family of 8 adults and 2 toddlers. I cannot emphasize enough how good the house layout was in our situation. There were enough doors and safeguards to keep the toddlers safe. There were no stairs that we had to navigate. Parking was easy. The rooms were laid out so that some adults could work quietly, toddlers could take naps as needed, all while the rest of the group had plenty of space (inside and out) to have fun. As for general needs, you could not ask for anything better. Quiet neighborhood, clean both inside and out, 6 houses to a quiet public beach, beautiful private pool and outdoor area. Close to restaurants and grocery. Walking to the "downtown" AMI would have been nice, but then it would have been busier and streets more congested. There were still restaurants in walking distance, and the Trolley was available as needed. Everyone in our group is ready to return again next year!

Great location & set-up. Outdoor area is fantastic and had all the essentials you’d need to travel to the beach. I would definitely stay again. Only complaint is some of the beds & pillows were uncomfortable, so I’d travel with mine next time.

Hey Melissa, I am so glad that you would visit us again! That is the greatest compliment. We try hard to make sure that all the needs of our guests are met while they enjoy our AMI Blue Grotto! We are sorry to hear about the pillows and the beds. I would love to know which beds were a problem so that we can check on them. We will definitely order some new pillows. There are some extras in the linen closet in case some folks are more of a hard or soft pillow person. We appreciate the feedback and hope to welcome you back soon!

Would be hard to top this gorgeous home. Plenty of room for multiple families, beautifully decorated and stocked with everything you need. Location is perfect- A short easy walk to a peaceful area of the beach and restaurants in walking distance too. The pool area is private, with lots of seating and outdoor tv. Domenico and Kelly were wonderful and a pleasure to work with.

Our family stayed at the Blue Grotto for the third year in a row. It is a wonderful rental for our family of 11. The two living rooms and comfortable six bedrooms made it a great place for us to party together or have some alone time. The pool and location to the beach is truly the BEST!

Thank you for your review! We love a movie night by the pool as well. We are glad you enjoyed our home. We work hard to be the best that we can be for our guests. We are not a big commercial rental company so these reviews mean so much to us. We were a little sad to get 4 stars and wish we could have been a 5 star vacation for you.

Awesome location. Perfect distance from the beach, Publix, and restaurants. The house was stocked! Beach chairs, towels, cleaning supplies, and the welcome bottle of wine was a nice touch. Blue Grotto was super clean and spacious. We would stay there again next year but it’s not available for the dates we need…..
