Blue Bayou - Charming home with heated pool, tiki and OPTIONAL BOAT DOCKAGE
Old and new Florida charm coexist for a relaxing and comfortable stay in this clean, charming, newly renovated home tucked in a treasure location between all that is tropical, beach, and water. Our location is unique in that you do not have the expense of staying directly on the water yet have access to a dock (just steps from the property) for boat dockage. There is a neighborhood bridge with a 84” clearance at king high tide.
Coming with boats and trailers? Not a problem. Thanks to the exuberant amount of parking on this property, you can arrive and unload your gear, trailer the boat to the boat ramp 2 blocks away, park the trailer back at your doorstep, and dock the boat steps from your temporary abode. Being a boating family, one of our greatest goals was to make access to the water as easy and cost efficient as possible.
The prize of this home is the backyard oasis. The myriad of sunny days, 249 per year, is the inspiration for this tropical getaway within a getaway. Beginning with the refreshing saltwater pool (heated for an additional fee) and ending with the stately 390 square foot tiki hut with ambient lighting, the in-betweens will delight also such as the propane firepit for cool evenings, the outside shower for a convenient rinse (especially after a salty day on the water), the convenient outside-access half bath, and spacious turf for cornhole and other game-playing. This oasis will continue to pull you outdoors for entertaining and relaxing with a grill and grill tools for preparing your catch of the day, a full-size fridge for easy access to libations and snacks, a teak table for dining for 8, and lounge seating and a large TV under the tiki.

This home is exactly as pictured. The pool and tiki hut are the stars of the show! The backyard was beautiful and very relaxing. You can tell that a lot of love, thought, and money was put into this home to make it accommodating. The hosts have thought of everything, and we really appreciated being able to borrow their beach supplies! The welcome snacks were such a nice surprise for our hungry kids after traveling and were appreciated. This house was simply wonderful for our family.

My Family came down for a Soccer Tournament at IMG. The location could not of been better for that. 15 minutes to IMG, 15 minutes to the beaches, great restaurants were all in close proximity. My children loved the pool (Heated), the Tiki Hut, and outdoor living area. It was perfect for the down times and evenings after dinners out. The hosts were amazing as our travel home was delayed and they were more than helpful and flexible with our Check out plans (They even mailed back home a clothing item my daughter left behind). We are hoping to come back if we ever play down at IMG again or decide to vacation in the area.

This lovely home has everything you need for a wonderful vacation. The outdoor space, yard games, tiki hut with tv, pool, and grill was amazing! The indoor space was comfortable and decorated beautifully, the kitchen contained everything you could possibly need. We utilized the nearby dock access for fishing and also an easy walk to the river. We used the bikes and beach equipment available at the house. Location is great with a short drive to the beach and shopping just minutes away. We enjoyed everything about our stay and can’t wait to return!

Great stay
We really enjoyed our visit and this home was a key reason. It is a beautiful, clean home with everything you need while on vacation. The pool and backyard are fantastic. The home is in a quiet neighborhood, right down the road from the boat ramp, and seemingly less than 20 minutes to virtually any beach you’d want to visit. The beaches are quite busy, so we appreciated staying a bit further away with the family in this quiet setting. We’ll absolutely look to stay here again when visiting the area.

We are glad you enjoyed the pool and backyard which is usually a highlight of our guests’ stays. We provide a starter pack of consumable provisions upon arrival. For a week’s stay and based on the number of people in your party, the home was prepped with a Bounty Mega roll, 6 kitchen trash bags, 6 rolls of toilet paper, Clorox wipes, dish and laundry pods, dish and hand soap, shampoo and conditioner, snacks and water, and coffee and hot cocoa pods. When you requested more paper towels and trash bags, we promptly delivered them. Our rental is a labor of love. We continually seek out ways to make improvements for our guests so they feel welcomed and set up for a pleasant and relaxing stay. We truly are surprised that you were so disappointed.

Paradise!
We had a wonderful trip and the house was fantastic. We’ve stayed in many rentals and this was by far the most stocked and cleanest. They even provided more outdoor items (for beach and pool) than listed. We utilized all of the things and went to nearly all of the recommended restaurants and all were fantastic! The house was as close to everything we wanted to visit and the backyard was great for our family! I even had contact with the owners (our issues not house issues) and they were so kind, responsive and helpful! I cannot say enough good things. Book the trip and enjoy paradise!
