Property has some maintenance issues- several light bulbs needed replacing (did not work) tv in master bedroom doesn’t work. Other than that, unit was ok.
We love this home and actually stayed here last year too. It is ,by comparison, a great value for beachfront access. Decorated beautifully, and located in a prime spot to walk to grocery, nightclub, ice cream, restaurants, and breathtaking private beach. The only complaint I had was the outdoor light fixture did not work. It was reported to representative, but not repaired. Would have been lovely to sit outside late. I plan to reserve this same unit next year. It has my heart. Wonderful memories were made 2 years in a row there. Thank you for hosting.
This was an awesome location. So nice to step in the front door and see the beach through the back sliding doors. It was great to just step into the sand! The place was very clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the amazing sunsets and the beautiful weather. We will be back!

We’ve stayed in other units through this rental company before and have always had positive experiences, which made this stay especially disappointing. Unfortunately, this townhome appeared to have a significant lack of upkeep and maintenance throughout the property.Some of the issues we encountered included nail pops on the deck, overgrown grass along the beach access path, concerns with the upper balcony railing, and a balcony deck light that was missing its cover and constantly flickered. The patio furniture and beds were uncomfortable, the living room furniture was stained, and the carpet throughout the unit was heavily worn and stained. There was also a strong moldy smell throughout the townhome, along with visible evidence of water damage in multiple areas and black mold present on several air register vents.Additionally, the TV remote was corroded with battery acid and did not function properly. To make matters worse, we found three large roaches during our stay — two in the kitchen and one in the upstairs bathroom.We understand that properties near the beach experience wear and tear, but the condition of this unit did not meet the standard we’ve come to expect from this company. We hope these issues are addressed for future guests.
Amazing! Location is awsome. Can walk to most anywhere you need to go. Parking in the front of the townhouse is great, right off of Front Beach Rd. Walk out onto the large deck and down the steps right onto the sand of the gulf! This part of the beach is not crowded at all. This place is perfect!

It’s always amazing to hear that we’ve been successful in our goal of providing our guests with the best possible experience. Thank you for staying with Blue Swell and we look forward to your return.
We came in for Thunder on the Beach and got our own seats to the air show. Had air go out and they had someone out there within the hour. Very communicative and loved the condo! Will be back
