Great Vacation!

Great place. Our kids loved the pools. Right on the beach. The owner was very fast to reply to any questions we had and very polite. We came for the 4th of July and you can see fireworks right on the beach. We would definitely come back.

Great beach condo

We had an issue with our original rental and needed to find one asap! This rental was booked last minute and 15 mins later we were there. Air conditioning was cool, lights and tvs were on and a cart for luggage was by our door! It was spacious and very clean! No odors. Extra linens were clean, all beds, including Murphy bed were comfortable. Good selection on tv. Air conditioning worked great! Water pressure was good. Just a few minutes walk to the beach. I have three kids, one autistic and nonverbal. Only downfall was I had to block the front door so he would not escape and some fragile items on premise. Otherwise a great find!.

Blue Crab is a 10

We had such a great stay at this condo rental! The listing is exactly as described. We were reading through reviews prior to staying and was a little worried about prior (2022) reviews about the Tiki Bar only working for guests who booked through the resort and not VRBO, as that amenity is a must for our little family. We were very pleasantly and happily surprised to see that the condo HOA had gotten that worked out and it was open to all guests via cash/card or Apple Pay. The resort had Italian ice serviced daily, a little poolside tiki bar and grill, and a great pool set up! The condo was comfy, clean and well stocked. It was great for my family and 2 little ones (5 & 2). I saw a prior review that it was small, but we actually thought it was pretty large sized for a 1 bedroom beachfront condo! It was certainly larger that most of the others we’ve stayed at. Jay was very quick to relay any news (such as the indoor pool being retiled during our stay)! 10/10 recommend! They also had beach chairs, boogie boards, and tons of sand toys for us to use! It was also nice that the only 2 extra cleaning tasks were to take out the trash and do the dishes. We are used to many other rentals being cleaning the entire unit spotless. We of course still cleaned the unit spotless, but not being required was a nice change. Thank you for letting our little family make your condo our home for the week!

We loved our stay at the blue crab, the room was super clean, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the beach chair and boogie boards were great!! I would say 6 is a tight squeeze, given only one bathroom, but we made it work! The only downfall was the ac had an awful musty smell but im not sure theres much that could be down with that thanks to all the moisture. The property itself is rather rough looking, and the parking is horrendous BUT the beach made up for that. The spot on the beach couldn't be beat, it was never overly crowded, and we loved how convenient it was from our room to the sand!
