The Blue Marlin is an amazing vacation location for you and your family. Swim with the dolphins, fish, or just recline on the white, sugary sand.

A New Years Blast

We loved bringing in the New Year at the property. Lucinda reached out and was very helpful. The view is amazing and the hot tub was the perfect to recover at our Polar Plunge at the Blue Parrot. We had a great time staying here!

Thanksgiving at the beach

This house reminded me of many happy visits to the beach as a kid. We enjoyed the games, the outdoor playroom, the ease of getting to the park, the comfy beds, the incredible view, the fenced porch and yard, etc. The hosts were very responsive as well. This isn't fancy, but it is just right!

Most relaxing stay ever!

We spent my birthday week at The Blue Marlin on St George Island. The place was perfect with all the amenities you could possibly need. Perfect location right on the beach with just steps to the ocean. Beautiful sunrises which we got up early every morning to sit and watch and drink coffee. A turtle nest on the beach even hatched while we were there. Our dog even had a great time and loved walking the beach. We appreciate you sharing your beautiful house with us and our fur baby!

Great Beach Front Cottage

This newly renovated beach front cottage is our favorite place to be on St. George Island. Nicest and most well stocked we have found in the 16 years we have been staying on the island. Love it!

Happy We Went Back!

This was our second vacation at the Blue Marlin and it was just as enjoyable as last year! Located right on St. George Island Beach with its beautiful white sand and amazing sunrises, the house has ALL of the amenities that we could want for a very enjoyable and relaxing beach vacation getaway, plus it's dog-friendly, which is very important to us! We've already made our reservation for the Blue Marlin for next spring and are looking forward to another great stay!

The Blue Marlin was awesome!

We Thoroughly enjoyed our visit; we felt like the owners cared and made an extra effort to communicate and follow up. We felt fortunate to find this property for our visit and were impressed with the recent remodeling of the property. It was a truly relaxing vacation and this home was a perfect fit for our needs. Would highly recommend it to our friends, and will!

Right on the beach!

Wonderful location right on the beach, we loved this charming house. Bringing three teenagers worried us wondering if they would have find enough to do but the pool table and hot tub kept them busy when the beach and waves didn't! Very well equipped house, beautifully decorated with a full kitchen. This was our second time on the island and we found our future rental location! We certainly appreciated that is was so dog friendly.

Meets all your needs

Comfortable house that meets all our needs for 4 adults and 4 elementary aged kids. Beach is close, hot tub is great for cooler days/rainy days, easy to get in and out of property. All the “needs” present in the house (kitchen supplies, laundry, grill, beach toys/towels, bikes). Owners were very responsive and attentive to our needs as well.

About the host

Hosted by Tom and Lucinda

Host profile image
Hello and thank you for looking at our beach house! We live in New Port Richey, FL but enjoy spending time on the quaint island of St. George. Tom grew up in Switzerland and Lucinda grew up in New York state. We are active people that like to travel to unique places - together we have traveled to 5 continents (hoping to hit all 7!) We were exploring the Florida Panhandle when we happened upon St. George Island and fell in love with the tranquil beaches. We enjoy all the beach activities, great weather and friendly people. We hope you enjoy The Blue Marlin and the island as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

After we visited St. George Island, we knew this was a place that we needed to have more connections. The Blue Marlin has wonderful views and a great beach front location. We are just a few steps to the beach which is the perfect location for us! St. George Island has many conveniences we want including great recreational activities year round, delicious restaurants, nice people and small town feel.

What makes this property unique

The outdoor space, large beach front lot and plenty of space to share with your family and friends.
The game room is a wonderful place to spend evenings,rainy days or anytime you want to have fun!
