Good vacation spot.

We as a family had 10 people and the layout was perfect. The view from the kitchen/living room is amazing and there was plenty for all the family members to do. Can’t be the location either. Perfect distance to the beach or a short golf cart ride into town. Wil stay there again!!

Beautiful Home, Convenient Location

This property is absolutely gorgeous! From the Dale Chihuly chandelier to the sparkling pool, Marlin Azul did not disappoint. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to prepare and serve meals, there were pop up tents, boogie boards, beach toys, and a cooler in the garage for a perfect day in the sand, and a Nintendo game system and tons of family board games. When we arrived the home was squeaky clean and the keypad programmed with our unique key code for effortless entry. Coastal Ed’s had delivered our golf cart and it was sitting on the driveway raring to go! When we had a question about the pool, we communicated efficiently through the AvantStay app with a representative who solved our problem immediately. Additionally, it was great to have the AvantStay app because I could access the property manual easily right from my phone and invite others in our party to have access as well. I was even able to make room assignments! I highly recommend Marlin Azul and will book through AvantStay for future travel.
