Blue Sky — Guest Reviews

The home was great. The set up of bedrooms bathrooms kitchen and gathering area was perfect for our family. Location on the beach was right on target. The host was easy most auto generated communications by text r e mails. Everything was in working order except the upstairs washer was not. Didn’t know till too late night before leaving.

The house and location were perfect for our family vacation. Direct access to the beach was wonderful for sunrise/sunset walks on the beach. The house was beautiful and included board games and a booster seat. The ground level garage area has a ping pong table, cornhole, grill, sand toys, floaties, beach chairs, etc. The main floor (2nd floor) has the living room, kitchen, dining area, laundry room, powder room, and master bedroom with private bathroom. The third floor has four bedrooms with their own private bathrooms and a laundry room. The fourth floor has the bunk bed room with a private bathroom. We would DEFINITELY stay here again!

Seaside Thanksgiving Easy access. Large gathering area. Second year to stay in this property. Cleaner than last year. Repairs and maintenance in progress - not a problem at all The sinks in the main level master bath do not drain well and I could not lock the deck doors (raise handle, turn lock - can't turn lock). Family loves the set up.

Third time staying here.. This was my families third time staying at this house. We’ve loved it so much in previous years, but this time we were let down. Upon our arrival the house had zero toilet paper. We let management know and they told us no one would be able to bring any until our second day. The floors in every room were still covered in sand from the previous guests. There was still trash on the nightstand in one room. TV’s unplugged and not working. Some furniture seemed to be broken, drain covers were missing in the top floor bedroom. Two water bugs were found in the primary bedroom and the wet bar area. Most of the outdoor accessories in the garage were broken. All in all we still enjoy the house and its location. Though it doesn’t feel like the raise in prices through the years matches the quality of the house any longer.

Large Beachfront retreat Great place for our family Christmas. Bedrooms were spacious and all had bathrooms on suite. The 3rd floor bedrooms had fantastic views of the beach & gulf. Very large common kitchen/living room perfect for our group of 12 (could accommodate 20 very well). 4th floor bunk room had the best view, including identifying gulf water wildlife - dolphins, rays, unidentified fish. Weather wasn’t perfect, but most of us did take the plunge in the gulf.

Large Beachfront retreat Great place for our adult family Christmas celebration. Great views from large common kitchen/living room. Perfect for our group of 12 and could easily accommodate 20. 3rd floor bedrooms fronting the gulf had even better views. 4th floor bunk room had best views and we were able to see gulf water wildlife - dolphins, rays, other unidentified fish. Even though weather was dicey, most of us took the plunge in the gulf. One issue with internet that disabled WiFi & TV’s for a couple of days. Judy worked with the owners to get the cable fixed. Tough work over the Christmas holidays - thanks, Judy.

Perfect location Blue Skies beach house is wonderful for a large multi generation family. Easy access to the beach, elevator if needed, play area out back, large area for gathering and plenty of bedrooms for relaxing. Navarre Beach is away from the crowds but easy access to conveniences and needs. However, it is time for a deep clean and some general maintenance. Upon arrival a load of dirty towels was in the washer (we turned the washer on and washed them). This makes me question if the linen is being removed between guest. The dryer vent on the main floor laundry room was not hooked up to the vent. Cleanliness was average - areas behind sinks had obviously not been cleaned, floors were clean in traffic area only, details just were not taken care of. Many bathroom drains, especially the tub drains are sluggish leaving the bather standing in a pool of water. Several kitchen drawers need attention and are off the rails. All propane tanks were empty and the kayaks were not on the premises (we did not bring our own kayaks bc we were supposed to have access to two). The garage area also needed a good cleaning and straightening up. A conscious decision was made not to contact guest services. Most issues we handled and went right on with our holiday. I have talked with guest services after our stay. All contact with guest services has been very pleasant. Each agent was helpful, polite and attentive. This is a great rental and our hope is these issues can and will be resolved.

Wonderful Beach Home This is our 3rd time staying at Blue Ski and just as in previous stays it did not disappoint. A big plus this year was the walking bridge over the dunes to the beach. This home is amazing and perfect for our family beach vacation. We hope to book again next summer.

Beautiful Home This is our second year to stay at Blue Sky. The home is beautiful and has a perfect setup for large families. The location and privacy of the beach is wonderful and this year we had a private boardwalk to the beach, which wasn't there last year. Made getting to the beach so much easier. There are a few things that could have been better. The pillows on each bed are awful. They are flat and very uncomfortable. If driving, you might want to pack your own. The grill was not usable either year we've been. It is very dirty and we couldn't light it. Lastly, the ice maker in the fridge still doesn't make much ice. Very little. Same as last year. That has not been addressed. Overall, it is a great place to stay and for the most part, very comfortable. There is plenty of hot water for showers after a day at the beach and having two sets of washers and dryers was so helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Funtime Nice facility with a lot of room.Great for large family vacation. On beach with private walkway

This host has fantastic communication pre, during, & post stay. The house and overall property is amazing! Comfortable and feels very "Home" like. Plenty of dishes and utensils available for quick a large meal for your large group. I was super impressed and will book this property again!

Good time Great house for large party. Convenient to beach with private walkway

Great place We loved the house. We have rented many home in Navarre and the were all wonderful homes but This one made all the check points. Spacious for our family and very comfortable. From age 4 months to 72. Our only thing was neede was a better set up to rinse off the sand coming from the beach. But that was minor

Quick Weekend Trip We stayed Nov 6 to Nov 9 for a quick weekend to attend a wedding on Navarre Beach. This house was more than what we expected! The check in process was super easy and even had access a little early, thank you Scenic Stays! Ample amenities when it came to kitchen supplies, laundry, beach play! I would highly recommend Blue Sky to anyone traveling with a large group as the bedrooms all have their own bathrooms which was a must for us. We will be staying again!

Loved our Stay at Blue Sky! We had 6 couples stay in this home for a week. Each couple had their own bedroom / bathroom and there was a 1/2 bath on main living floor. House was well accommodated with everything we needed. The views from the balconies were amazing. The only thing I wish was different was possible use of the elevator to get our luggage to / from our vehicles. There are a lot of stairs that you must climb. It was a little difficult for some of our family.

Beautiful ocean front home with plenty of room for families!

Our large group enjoyed a wonderful experience. The house is large and comfortable with an amazing location. We have stayed here twice and have loved it both times.

Great location. Beautiful home. Clean. Wonderful place for spring break with two big families of all ages.

Loved the house. The elevator was an added plus. The extra refrigerator was nice. Also 2 washer/dryer great. Nice short beach walk. Loved the outdoor shower and the garage which opened to keep beach stuff.

Spectacular! Best beach house rented so far! And the view! Loved it all. The little starter kits in the kitchen and bathrooms were very appreciated. Elevator would’ve been nice to carry luggage up/down….but still a 5 star rating.

Blue Sky is Wonderful We had a great time the week we rented! The house had everything you could ask for, except access to the elevator which we knew going in. The Wi-Fi was not that reliable, but you are on an island. The kitchen was well appointed with everything we needed. The extra fridge downstairs was a nice touch for drinks. The beds slept wonderful, and views were great.

No guest service - only 1500 chracters allowed in response. Luxury? No guest service. Upon arrival, told that the inspector hadn't signd off, if we waived the inspection, any issues would not be resolved for several days. We stated that we would not waive the inspection. Inspector no show. Scenic tells us that the inspector waived the inspection. We were assured that this would not impact our service. We entered the house and saw that the carafe to the coffee pot was missing. Texted Scenic and were told that a coffee pot would be delivered that evening. No coffee pot arrived for 2 days after repeated texting. We made coffee dripping into a saucepan Their response was that there is a keurig in the house. Implying that the guest go to the store and buy K pods so Scenic doesnt have to deliver a coffee pot. Note Keurig only worked if you stood there and held the top down. 2 or 3 pots of coffee are typically made in a day when we all get together. Only 1 towel provided per guest. Constant laundry or never a dry towel. Not very luxurious. Ceiling dripped onto master bedroom bed. No response from Scenic. TV didnt work. No dust pan. Bingo Scenic says coming in 45 minutes ( 30 hours after text) Dust pan and Swiffer arrive no TV technician. Scenic wants to keep guests happy cleaning. After 2 days, man says he was sent to look at tv. No luck, says he does drywall not tv's Photo of game area false - no kayaks, 1 ping pong table ( w/o paddles) broken chairs and boards. Lucky we brought boards, chairs and shade. ...

Repairs needed The bar stool is broken needs to be fixed was like that when we arrived. The door on the box banged all night ask to come fix and I think they came but was open banging again every night. Remote had no back and was not working well. Towel bar is broken in a bathroom up stairs. Needs a good ice maker and the elevator needs to be for taking luggage and groceries up

Blue Sky Beautiful amazing location. Love the house spacious. Could upgrade towels and linens. Also we had issues getting bags upstairs wish could have used elevator for luggage , not sure what that is about.
