Gorgeous home

This was a beautiful, well-equipped home in an excellent location. It was so easy to get to the beach. We enjoyed peaceful sunsets on the beach and some of us got up to watch the sunrise on the back patio. Lots of room for a large group. We hope to come back again!

Family Vacation

Everything was great! The home was clean, well appointed, spacious and ideally located to the club and beach. The property manager was amazing. The 4 bedrooms that were separate from the primary bedroom had an adjoining game room / living area that was ideal for our adult kids and grandkids. The expansive back deck had amazing views of the beach and was fully equipped with eating and sitting areas. An amazing property!

Great getaway spot!

Went last minute as Ian disrupted our Caribbean vacation plans. The house is beautiful with views to match. Lots of community paths for bicycling and beach walkover is steps away. Spent most of the time on the back deck listening to the waves and watching the morning sunrise. Great communication and check in/out was a breeze. Will be back with the rest of the family. Highly recommend.

Thank you Shelton for your 5-star review and we are so glad we could be your "Caribbean" vacation destination at The Blue Pete. This beautiful custom home is the closest to the beach and less than 5 minutes to the Beach Club pool/receration area. Wonderfully appointed and filled with many extra touches that spoil a guest. Sounds like you know how to vacation; enjoying one of the many views from this home, listening to waves and just relaxing. We look forward to having you back and welcoming new guests to The Blue Pete. Your friends at Pointe West Vacation.

Family Fun

We made the journey with 11 people ranging in age from 4-83. We can’t say enough as to how this property met any and all expectations from the advertising. Responses were almost immediate and check in/out instructions were easy and well listed. Access to the beach and club…. I’ll just say we were “front row”! This home is spacious, super clean and wonderfully furnished and decorated. We highly recommend this property!

May 2023 Beach Trip

This is a beautiful house and was perfect for myself, my daughter, my granddaughter and my two small great grands. If you have never used a convection stove I would suggest the owner/ managers supply written instructions. Also the floor mirror in the master bedroom should be secured especially if there's children in your party. We look forward to staying at this beautiful home again.

Very spacious home

This home is quite spacious! And it is extremely well supplied, down to Tide Free laundry detergent! The home has an excellent location - near the boardwalk to the beach, as well as close to the Point West Resort for swimming pools, billiards and exercise equipment, and a grill and bar to supply one with food and drink - all of which our family utilized. We especially enjoyed sitting on the home's back deck while enjoying the ocean waves and cooling breeze. And everyone loved having their own bedroom with TV and bathroom. It was a lovely vacation in the Blue Peter! One small caveat is that the master bathroom mirror is completely hazy - left, right and center - something that cleaning will not rectify.

Fantastic location

What a great house in a great location. We were maybe 100 steps away from the boardwalk that lead to the beach and about 400 steps away from the entrance to the Resort Pool. Super convenient. And the rental had everything we needed to enjoy the beach...boogie boards, sand toys, beach chairs, beach towels and 2 wagons to carry everything. The layout of the house was great, lots of space for us 8 adults, 3 kids (11,9,8) and one dog to spread out. Kitchen had every appliance we needed to cook (loved the air fryer). They even provided skewers for roasting marshmallows at the fire pit (we used the pit that was at the lazy river pool on the bay side-I definitely recommend buying the resort bands, especially if you are staying for more than 4 days- well worth the price of 25 per person/per stay). The neighborhood was nice and quiet. Felt safe. Beach wasn't crowded. Not a lot of shells to find (thank goodness I packed a couple handful from home-I planted them on the beach in the morning before the kids went out) We really had a great time. I certainly would rent this house again
