We had a great stay at Big Blue. We were there to visit my son who lives a couple blocks away. Great location, ocean view, clean and just as advertised with all the necessities. The location is within walking distance to lots of restaurants and stores. Parking spots are provided which is great. There were beach chairs, boogie boards and other random beach accessories available.There are a number of stairs to get into the unit. We were with my elderly parents and that was the only downside of the unit. Once they were in the unit it was no issue at all. We loved the layout of the unit.NXT was very responsive when we had a parking issue. It was resolved quickly.We could not have been happier with our stay and I know we will be back.
