* Guests can say it best:
Wow! My family and I were blown away by Blue Mountain Luxe! I adore the fantastic combination of private spaces and group spaces. With the five extremely comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms, my family of eight had plenty of privacy. But family vacations are all about togetherness, so the first floor great room with the huge sofas and chairs, eight-person dining table, and large well-appointed kitchen were perfect for us. We also loved having plenty of seating for everyone on the 3rd floor porch. Sitting outside with my family, catching the morning breeze, having coffee and planning the day each day was one of my favorite activities. Having the large pool within a two-minute walk was also great, especially when the double-red flags were up at the beach those first few days. We rented a couple of golf carts from Electric Cart Company, so getting to the beach was both tons of fun and super speedy! (Thanks for the recommendation, Michael, they were a really good company and provided us with great carts!) We cooked at the house quite a bit, but it was great having really tasty restaurants within a few minutes drive. We had a truly amazing stay, and Michael was a wonderful host! Thanks so much for sharing your gorgeous home with us!”

Perfect vacation home for our family
Our group was three couples, two single adults, and two children (9 years old and six months old) and the home fit us wonderfully. There is plenty of room in the public spaces, and the bedrooms fit each group very well. The location of the stairs is a nice touch ... they are situated so you really don't hear people walking up and down when you are in the bedrooms. The kitchen is well-furnished, and the owner was helpful and responded quickly when we had questions. The neighborhood amenities are right by the house, too, and we took advantage of them all: pool, shuffleboard, putting green, bocce ball. And having ice cream and coffee shops in walking distance was a real treat!

White Sand Getaway
We really enjoyed Micheal sharing his home with us. The beach was perfect for the whole family (we really enjoyed the white beach and the ocean water. The swimming pool was great for relaxing and tanning. The house was spacious and the layout was perfect and the village location was perfect and we felt safe. There was so much to do besides swimming, great food and shopping, and biking. Thanks again!

Excellent home for a large family
This Home had everything you could ask for. The owners were always available via text or email, and they provided a fully stocked home away from home! I will definitely stay here again! The neighborhood is nice and quiet and pool and games are right beside the house. The beds were all comfortable and bathrooms were upgraded nicely. It is a little farther from the beach than we would have liked but you can easily drive and drop of items and park. The living area and kitchen/dining were all open and very spacious! All my friends commented on how clean and well stocked this home was.

Dirty Home - Misled, Overcharged, and Disappointed
We booked a five-bedroom home in Blue Mountain Beach advertised as "luxury" accommodations. Check-in was supposed to be 5 pm. We arrived at 5:15 pm on July 4, 2020. Despite the late check-in, housekeeping was still cleaning the home. We were told they were just finishing up and to come inside and wait. It was obvious that the first floor of the home had not been cleaned. There were dirt, trash, and dust bunnies on the floor, sand on the tables and staircase, a used, wet towel in a dining room chair, hair and trash on the living room rug, spills on the appliances, a stained table cloth on the dining table, etc. There were only two women cleaning the home which was too big a job for them. They told us the reason for the delay was that the previous guests left an unusually big mess behind. They also said the first floor had already been cleaned. We called the owner and he had the housekeeping manager contact us. We agreed to leave the house while the first floor was cleaned. The same two women returned (along with their manager) to clean the bottom floor. This was uncomfortable for us, to say the least. These poor women were exhausted already. We drove around for an hour waiting for them to finish. When we returned, the downstairs floor had been mopped and the appliances had been wiped done, but the home was still dirty. By this time, it was 9:30 PM on our first night. Once we were able to inspect the upstairs we saw that it was also dirty: mildew in the shower, and on bathroom walls, hair on the sinks, stains on bed linens, rugs, and carpet. We swept the sand from the staircases, removed the stained table cloth, wiped down the glass top tables, and sprayed the bathrooms with Clorox cleaner ourselves. The next day, we had to purchase towels and washcloths b/c there weren't enough for our party of nine people. In addition, the furniture was oily and dirty. Water stains on the ceiling. The outside grill was dirty and the tank was empty. The wifi did not work - the message said the data limit had been reached. When I spoke to the owner the next day - after several texts - he told me we were welcome to check out and find another home. My response was that we couldn't find a home the week of July 4 and that we believed a refund for the cleaning fee and the first night was fair. He said he would be in touch and we never heard back from him. We have always trusted VRBO before.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Galvin

Host profile image
My wife and I are from New Orleans and we each vacationed in this area as children and have continued to vacation here throughout our marriage. We have enjoyed our time at 30a so much that we have now purchased a house to share with our family and guests. We are now retired and look forward to spending more time enjoying our beach paradise. We now live in Pass Christian, Mississippi to be closer to our grand daughter and beach home.

Why they chose this property

We were excited to be able to purchase a great house in the Village at Blue Mountain Beach. We have enjoyed our Village condominium for several years and wanted a larger place for our family and friends. Prior to owning at the Village we vacationed on the panhandle for many years. This area is always ranked in the top ten best beaches in the United States and is close to our family in New Orleans. Our house is the perfect size for large gatherings of family and friends. We love it here, and look forward to sharing our place with others.

What makes this property unique

Our home is close to the beach with both private and public beach access. There is a 22 mile bike/jogging path that runs alongside the coast and it is right outside our complex. This path goes to many beach access points and through seaside towns and villages. It is a great ride for a day or just a short trip.

If you want easy access to the beach, gated security for you and your guests, than this is the property for you. Our property is bordered on the north and east by state forests affording miles of hiking and biking trails.

Also, the Blue Mountain Beach area is in between Grayton/Seaside/Watercolor area and Destin area. So you can travel just a few miles either way for more choices of restaurants, galleries, golf, activities and still have the same spectacular beaches each way!
