We enjoyed our stay at Blue Marlin. You always had to be cognizant of the steps inside the property, particularly when getting up at night. Dealings with the host were always straightforward. We would definitely rent again, but most likely the upstairs property which we took a look at while we were there.

Quirky place up on a hill. "Easy Walk to beach" not all that easy. Clean, pretty well equipped and is close to town. Jackie, the property manager, was superfantastic in communicating, meeting us at the dock and checking us in.

Great location with easy access to town for dinner and drinks. Nothing too luxurious but you cant beat the price in this spot. It was clean and comfortable for our stay. AC was cool. Beach chairs and a cooler were available which was great. We do recommend this place.

This unit is in a great location, is well-appointed and the host and staff took very good care of us. There was a 24-hour power outage on island and they checked in with us, and made sure we had generator power so that we were comfortable.

Great overall experience. We liked everything about our stay. Unit was inviting, clean, comfortable, and quiet. Michele was attentive and made us feel like we had a friend we could turn to on the island. Terrace was nice for relaxing outdoors. Location was a close walk to town yet more peaceful.

Jackie and Michelle were great communicaters. I was emailed all kinds of ideas such as jeep rentals, restaurants, shops and anything else you need for vacation. It was a great location with an easy walk into town and a not-so-easy walk back due to the hill. It is a very quiet area. The only sound is the occasional car or truck riding by. We loved the fact that they provided chairs,cooler and beach towels.
