Instructions to get to the location were clear and place was well taken care of. Only thing is I wish the shower had more privacy.

This place gave us exactly what we came for.We booked the little blue cabin for a fully disconnected weekend, no phones, no internet, cooking every meal over the fire, and Sol's place delivered more than we knew to hope for. We were welcomed in by a box turtle crossing the dirt road and a family of white tailed deer ten seconds later, and it only got better from there.Mornings on the front porch with coffee, sun coming through the mossy oaks, Sandhill Cranes walking up through the yard, and calling out across the marsh. We took our chairs down to the water's edge one afternoon and stayed for three hours just watching the clouds and the birds go by. The porch burner and the fire pit got used for every single meal. The cabin is thoughtfully stocked and had everything we needed.Sol, thank you for creating this. We came here worn down and we left able to breathe again. Three days without a phone in a place this peaceful did something for us that we have been needing for a long time.We will absolutely be back.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to share such a beautiful and heartfelt review — and especially for sharing your photos with us. 🥹❤️ Your words and your pictures mean more to us than you could ever know. When we created the Blue Cabin, we dreamed of having a place where people could step away from the noise of everyday life, slow down, reconnect with nature, and simply breathe. 🌿 And knowing that you came here worn down and left feeling like you could breathe again… that touched my heart deeply. That is exactly why NiceStay exists. ❤️ Your story of arriving to a box turtle, followed by the deer, waking up to Sandhill Cranes, drinking coffee on the porch, cooking every meal over the fire, and sitting quietly by the water for hours — those are the moments that make this little piece of paradise so special. 🐢🦌🪶🌿 But what touched me most was knowing that this place gave you something you had been needing for a long time. There is no better compliment you could have given us. Thank you for choosing our little Blue Cabin, for trusting us with your time away, for embracing the simplicity of the experience, and for sharing a little piece of your weekend with us through your beautiful photos. 📸❤️ Please know that your words will stay with us for a very long time. You didn’t just leave us a review — you reminded us why we do what we do. Our door, our porch, and this little piece of nature will always be waiting for you. Come back anytime. 🌿❤️ With so much gratitude, S☀️L

More “RUSTIC” than I expected. Very small, I’m too claustrophobic for this. Not much of a water view or access.

Coming to La Casa Azule was supposed to be an anniversary celebration. Unfortunately due to our jobs, my fiancée wasn't able to come. He didn't want me to miss out on this because i had never stayed in the woods, in a cabin, with just me and nature. Long story short, Sol, the owner and operator was tve most amazing woman I had ever met. The experience was one, for the rest of my life I will cherish, and coming home without any feeling's accept complete happiness and ready to do some much needed work on myself and my inner self, LA CASA AZULE changed my life forever!!!

Even though your fiancée couldn’t join, I’m glad you embraced the experience and found joy, peace, and connection with nature. Guests like you remind me why I love sharing this place. Thank you for letting La Casita Azul be part of your journey—you will always be welcome here 🤩 Thank you 🌹
