nice amenities, well appointed, loved that we could bring our dogs on vacation, Lauren the host kept in touch with us throughout our stay. Pool was not working while we were there but weather was to cool to use anyway. Loved the hot tub!! Highly recommend!
Amazing stay for a relaxing weekend away from responsibilities. Quiet area with everything you need or a very short drive to mix it up on the beach or a number of adventures.
If you are looking for the perfect location, away from all of the tourists, but close enough to hop in the car and enjoy all of the touristy locations...this is your spot! All that you need is right here on the property. Very relaxing and comfortable.
Was a great stay! Loved the area and the closeness to the beach. The one thing we weren’t aware of (poor planning on our part) was the $4 (each way) toll to the beach, and cash only. So set aside cash for that.
Our stay was amazing and our host answered any questions we had via text. She checked in with us the first day to make sure everything was good! We will be back! You never even have to leave the house it is so peaceful with the pool and the home is beautiful!!
The pictures of the home are very accurate. We had high hopes for a spring break vacation home, it did not disappoint. The neighborhood is very quiet and just far enough away from busy Destin but just a short drive to their beaches. My family had more than enough room and everything we needed was there. Grocery and restaurants are all within a 15 minute drive. Our children enjoyed the pool while we enjoyed the hot tub and our dogs were very comfortable in the surroundings. We hope to come back again!
This is an amazingly home to stay in.. it is absolutely gorgeous and more than we expected. The pool was warm the hot tub relaxing and the decor is exquisite. Lauren was an amazing host, she's very interactive and exceeded our expectations. Don't think twice about visiting Bluewater Bay Hideaway, I can assure you won't be disappointed . We will definitely be back. Again, Lauren thank you for making our vacation wonderful, next time we will stay longer!!
Very Comfy home. Great location. Large rental plenty of room. Wish we could have stayed longer. Family room has a large comfy sofa for gathering. Kitchen with everything you need to cook and high quality amenities. Loren provided great information and made communication easy. We loved the pool and patio. Community very quiet and laid back. We will rent again! Thanks.

This property is amazing! It's everything listed and more. My family and I really enjoyed this property an also the amenities. The pool and the hot tub were clean and enjoyable and also the house is very spacious. The area has a lot of places to eat, shop and things that can't be done with the family. I would also check Destin as it's just a short drive away to the beaches, fishing charters and more adult and family friendly things to do.
The host was amazing and recommend tons of things for my family and I to do. I will definitely be visiting this area and property again!
We stayed for 5 days/4 nights and were pleased with the home! The interior of the home is exactly as described and was cleaned and ready for us when we arrived! The check-in process was super simple, and we had no difficulties! Lauren checked in with us via text and was easy to communicate with (even though we didn't have any issues we needed taken care of during our stay!). This property is located about 15 minutes away from the main strip of Destin which we appreciated having a place to retreat away from the hustle and bustle. There are plenty of nearby grocery stores and pharmacies. We also visited a quaint little ice cream shop with specialty rolled ice cream and vintage arcade games (it was delicious!).
We really appreciated the details of the amenities at the property down to the plethora of plugs at the bedside for our electronics -- we didn't need to buy a single thing but food! The pool toybox was fully stocked, and she had everything we needed for a day on the boat and beaches! The pool and hot tub were clean, and we enjoyed them thoroughly! The check-out process was reasonable and easy. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here and wouldn't hesitate to book it again for our next trip!

The property was nice but the description is misleading. The pool is not heated, the solar heater system is broken. The hot tub was gross, slimy and so dirty you couldn't see the jets! Host called pool company but it was never available during our stay. Water pressure in the master shower is less than desirable. The yard hasn't been cut in a while, knee high weeds and briars. Queen bed is master bed room is very comfortable, appliances worked well. The kitchen and decor were great. My rating is low because we rented this property specifically for the pool and hot tub. So, we were very disappointed that those were not available for our stay.
The house was totally accessible, a big plus for a handicap person. The private pool and huge patio was a my favorite amenity. Queen bedrooms were clean and comfy except my spouse and I prefer a firmer mattress. Everything you need was there! I fell in love with the soap dispensing from the washer! No need to purchase detergent. The leather sofa included throws for a cozy night of tv!
Speaking of tv, always read the amenities carefully. There was only 1 tv in the den. I called to see if that was a misprint because we love to watch tv from our bed. She immediately but nice smart TVs in the other rooms! New renters pat me on the back for that! Smile
To top it off there are several beaches surrounding the area. We chose to visit Miramar because of its ADA accommodations.
To be honest the owner and I really clicked! She was so friendly and respond to any questions in an instance. That is a rarity from my many experiences and made me felt welcome to use her services again.
We were very happy. The house was an absolutely beautiful location was wonderful. The swimming pool in the hot tub we’re both perfect favorite part about our trip was definitely the house very close to Dustin and yes, it does suck to pay the four dollars every time you cross the bridge but that’s what happens when you’re on vacation all the amenities were wonderful, even had pool towels very convenient jacuzzi tub in the bathroom wouldn’t turn on like the electric wasn’t coming to it maybe just a fuse blown didn’t wanna bother with it love taking a bath in the big tub anyway and it kept the teenagers from staying out of my room. House was just picture shown even bigger than I expected. we would stay again, but I never go the same Town twice but we definitely recommend it 😊
Pictures online were accurate. Lauren was super communicative and helpful the entire stay. The beds could've been a tad softer but that's just personal preference. Overall very satisfied with our stay and are looking forward to booking again!
