Reviews indicate that this property offers a great location on the bay, with easy access to the beach and local amenities via a golf cart. Guests frequently mention the cleanliness of the home, the enjoyable heated pool, and the opportunity to see dolphins from the property. However, some reviews highlight issues with the value for money, including uncomfortable beds and maintenance concerns such as a non-functioning pool heater. Overall, while many guests had a wonderful experience, there are notable concerns regarding the property's condition and amenities that potential renters should consider.
Best vacation yet 6 adults and 2 kids stayed at the Blue Bay Home for 5 nights and it was everything we needed. The location was amazing without the crazy traffic that Clearwater and other locations have. It’s right on the bay and we saw dolphins multiple times. We used the kayaks and paddle boards in the bay. The pool was a huge hit. It offered plenty of walking shallow areas for the kids and a spot to layout while still being in the pool. We used the golf cart to go almost everywhere local for shops, the beach, and meals. Management and maintenance were quick to respond when we had questions. The beach wasn’t even too crowded and was within a very short walking distance straight down the road from the house! The house has coolers, beach chairs, umbrellas, sand toys, 3 bedrooms and the kids loved the bunk beds, plenty of tv’s, 3 bathrooms each with a shower, washer and dryer, dishwasher… it was perfect! We took a dolphin cruise on Little Toot in Clearwater and went to John’s Pass one evening for dinner and saw multiple pods of dolphins there as well. The house was clean and we had the best vacation possible.

Wonderful property We were very pleased with how the house matched the description online! Everything we were looking for and more. The location on the water with dolphins to watch and jumping fish, plenty of room in the pool, ease of getting to the beach and restaurants with golf cart, all was awesome. House was clean and modern. Really can’t think of anything negative. We had a great vacation!

Priced Incorrectly For what we paid, the property dose not meet the value/price intersection. Cleanliness issues, extremely uncomfortable beds (stains on mattresses, etc.), missing many major simple convenience items, pool heater issues not rapsonded too (very small). As a regular VRBO family of 6, we are confident that we know the difference between high end/high quality/well managed properties and mediocre rentals. This place is mediocre. We booked over xmas break and couldnt have been more disappointed. Considering the enormous amount of options in Clearwater/IRB, I encourage anyone to avoid this place and seek other options. We hate to see another family waste their money.

Great Thanksgiving We had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday at the Blue Bay Home! The house was spotless and had everything we could need. The heated pool was amazing (especially since it was a little cold for typical Florida) and my kids loved the little fountains! The golf cart was so handy for quick trips to the beach and back. We saw dolphins every morning out in the canal/bay area and lots of various birds. Overall it was a wonderful stay and given the weather wasn't too great, we definitely used the full capacity of the home and outdoor area!

Expensive for what you get This home was smaller than the pictures show. We were 3 older couples. The small bathroom has barely enough floor space to dry off after a shower. No space for toiletries. The pool heater did not seem to be working and the firepit also did not work. Reported the firepit and pool heater and a maintenance man came but was unhelpful. The outdoor dining set only had 5 chairs and at least 2 of them were rusted through in places. The outdoor rugs were well worn and turned up in one corner which was a trip hazard. There was junk strewn along both sides of the house outside including a broken chair, electrical junk, and various building materials. When you pay this much, I'd expect top notch, was disappointed.

Perfect Indian Rocks getaway House was perfect. Loved the sunrise views from the master overlooking the water. Lovely setting at night with all the lights automatically turning the back yard / patio into the perfect setting. Heated pool and dock to fish from were clutch. Nice golf cart included with rental made it easy to get around and to the beach. House comes with lots of beach chairs and supplies. Management company was great to communicate with and do a good job preparing the property for guests. Great location and neighborhood.

Great Location and Amazing Property This was a great location and amazing property. It was everything we expected - a three families were able to sleep and enjoy themselves comfortably, while allowing plenty of options for activities. I would recommend this property to anyone, and would 100% re-book as well. Thank you so much!

Great vacation house Great location, just 2 blocks from the beach with golf cart and free parking at the beach. House was older than I anticipated but in good shape. 3 couples and a 2 year old was in our party, house could not accommodate any more than that. Pool was great. Would definitely rent house again.
