Great house for a family getaway
My family spent 4 nights at this house in July 2023. The location is great, close to the beach and just far enough from the town. I would recommend this house and would love to stay in this same neighborhood again in the future.

Clean and comfortable house close to beach
House was perfect! Clean and comfortable, nice screened in patio and fenced in backyard for the dogs! Golf cart was perfect for 6 of us and close enough to beach we never had to drive the car. A few miles from downtown Port A where we could easily shop, eat and drink.

Very nice vacation
The house was nice, and clean. The neighborhood was nice, close to the beach. We didn’t have internet or tv the first two days and the pool was gross. Painters had gotten overspray all in the the pool water, so that was disappointing.

Great house close to the beach
This vacation rental has a lot of great amenities for a small group including children. It's very close to the beach, maybe 5 minutes walking (although if you have a lot of stuff either rent the golf carts or buy a parking permit and park on the beach, which is what we did). The house was very comfortable with plenty of pots/pans and utensils/cups etc. to meet our needs.

Would return / not my first choice
We enjoyed our stay at the property - we had two couples and three kids (ages 2-3) between us. I love the neighborhood this house is in - quick golf cart ride to the beach. It’s walkable too just far with little ones. The golf cart is really convenient. The house served its purpose - overall its a little dated / beach worn, but the layout and yard were nice. Not as “fully stocked” as many rentals we’ve stayed in - they had grilling tools and kitchen equipment, but be sure to bring your own beach gear, foil, ziplocks etc. I wish they also provided more dish towels / cleaning towels! (One of my major complains of most places we stay). Internet was spotty / slow - don’t plan to get work done, but for just a vacation it wasn’t an issue. The management company was very responsive & easy to work with. Overall we’d stay again just maybe not my first choice in the area.

Charming beach home
This house was so cute and perfect for our family and dogs. We enjoyed everything about it and really took advantage of the screened in porch in the evenings. The neighborhood was quiet. Would recommend this home to anyone needing a great space to stay.

Updates
The house was nice. However, the house needs to be completely updated. I had problems with all the old TV’s daily, microwave blew a plug and was replaced with another. The beds are extremely old and very uncomfortable. However, we visited with lots of neighbors & really enjoyed them. Life in Paradise was very helpful.

Our new favorite place!
It was our first time staying at the Blue Marlin and we certainly will be back! The closed in back yard made it so easy to bring our dog along! Go ahead and book the golf cart for the duration of your trip, it is worth it! The kitchen has all the dishes you will need and then some. There is a spice rack with some basic spices, bring your own oil. Plenty of paper goods and bath towels provided. Great selection of games and books. The screened in porch provides a great outdoor space. The property manager is very communicative via email and text, the staff was very friendly. Can’t wait to come back!

So cute and great location!
This house was perfect for our girls trip! The golf cart was so convenient and I highly recommend extending the cart rental for your entire stay. Community was lovely and the fact that each room had their own bathroom was an added plus. Will definitely stay here again! FYI there is no “pantry” with little sugars and salt and pepper, etc so keep that in mind when you pack groceries. Also, there is a Keurig machine but no pods, and no traditional coffee maker, so bring some pods. No biggie but just a heads up.

We had a terrific time at the Blue Marlin! The location and set up are terrific. My only tip is to bring toiletries because the sizes at the house are pretty tiny. Also, be sure to bring dish soap.
