Carrabelle, Florida
Looking for a compromise between OUTSTANDING FISHING opportunities and a LAVISH BEACH RETREAT Look no further. Come be our guests at "Bluewater Breeze", we've got everything you need for an awesome vacation.
As owners, we proudly manage all 4 of our vacation properties ourselves and our business philosophy is give you much more than you expect at a price lower than you expect. We try to give you a resort-like experience for a hotel price. We also want to help you get the very most out of your trip. We know the hardest part about going to a new place, is figuring out where to go. We have most of those answers and are happy to share them. If you want to fish, we will tell you where to go with GPS #'s included. We will tell you where the best beaches are and the best boat trips. " Hint- Dog Island"
If the weather doesn't cooperate, we've got Netflix with unlimited internet too. The condo is amazing, and so is the pool and spa. We like to think of Carrabelle as a center HUB for really cool day trips. Within 20-40 miles you have St George Island, Apalachicola, Wakulla Springs, Cape San Blas, Port St Joe, just to name a few.
One of the greatest things about boating in the area, is the barrier islands protect you from the waves, no more getting beat up with spray over the bow. Stress free boating we like to call it. 5 mins and you are at a deserted beach of Dog Island with the sand and fish all to yourself. A brand new boat / kayak / Paddleboard rental company just opened up right down the street for very affordable rates. Please check them out at gunnerpontoon.com I could go on and on, but I will describe the rest below.
Our condo is a 1 bedroom, 2 bath, 3 story unit in "Pirate's Landing", a recent development on the secluded area of Timber Island. Don't let the 1 bedroom fool you, it will sleep 6 very comfortably, with a queen size bed in the master and two premium sleeper sofas with upgraded memory foam mattresses. Professionally decorated with a fun beach vibe, and luxury furnishings, you will feel pampered the minute you open the door. Sumptuous bedding awaits you after a day of fun in the sun.
A wonderful location with the CLOSEST ACCESS point to the inlet of the Carrabelle river, only MINUTES FROM THE GULF. Carrabelle offers some very unusual benefits that have strong appeal to fishermen, families, and snowbirds alike. Just over a mile gets you to beautiful Carrabelle Beach with lush sand, clear water, and "NO WAVES", perfect for the youngsters playing in the shallows, with plenty of sea life to find. The uncrowded beach is equally well suited for just relaxing with a book. A 3 mile boat ride (or water taxi) will take you across the bay to a RESTRICTED ACCESS BEACH WONDERLAND called "Dog Island" that can only be reached by boat or plane. Pristine beaches with great shelling await its visitors. Launch a kayak right from the property and get lost in a natural maze of tidal creeks surrounding Timber Island. Want another adventure Take a sunset boat cruise up the river to see some beautiful homes and eventually some gorgeous marshlands. Make sure to bring a camera or your favorite bottle of wine for an unforgettable journey into "old Florida and the Forgotten Coast".
PRIME FISHING AREAS ARE MINUTES AWAY. Unlike other parts of the Big Bend region, QUALITY OFFSHORE FISHING and diving are found WITHIN 10 miles making for easy boat rides and small fuel bills. New to the area and want to catch fish No problem! Our guest book has some of OUR FAVORITE FISHING SPOTS with GPS #'s included so you don't have to spend your whole vacation searching for spots. We also include some cool recommendations of places to go that only the locals know.
"Bluewater Breeze" immediately overlooks the pool (literally 30 feet away), so you can be within easy reach of your kids while still relaxing on the screened in patio or one of the two balconies. We can help you plan your vacation with an extensive list of activity recommendations for all ages in the guest book.

Come wet a line and get some sand between yuour toes at "Bluewater Breeze" You're going to LOVE IT HERE!!
We loved the area the condo was very nice
More of fishing village setting condo was raised and uniquely situated. Beach was small mile away and not to close by to do.
As a seasoned traveller this was a mixed feeling stay. Over all neutral, would not book again for us, not a good fit. Experiences: Communication: ok/ good. Prior emails good. Check in glitches, Abby resolved quickly. Condo: Hotel description misleading: This unit is not waterfront! Faces pool one side and other wall of condos. There is a boat launch and slip near condo. Slip: no seating, but great to watch river or do yoga or read if you bring your own seating. Not luxury other than stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. All other stuff regular run of mill items from Walmart, etc. General notes: -not good choice if you have young kids....no bath tubs, no grassy areas to play. - good choice if you want to kayak or have boat - not good if you want beach experience Pros: - good rate for space - very cheery colors, beach feel - Welcome basket very cute! - Parking under condo - All basics provided: plates, pots, bedding, towels - big screened room, BBQ grill - Kayaks - adjustable air bed Cons: - Tv and wifi terrible! No live tv, all streaming option only -Weird ac noise in bedroom sounds like tub draining -Bedroom closet door bangs when ac turns on - needs some attention to cleaning (1st flight steps, air vents, missing smoke detector)
We enjoyed our time at Bluewater Breeze. Access to the boat ramp and slip were very convenient.
Some of the spaces are a bit tight (especially the bathrooms), and there are quite a few stairs - but this is pretty normal for the houses along the river from what I have seen. Overall it was a comfortable place to stay, and the dock was convenient.
Great
While we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, we didn’t realize there were 4 flights of steps. We are older and one has bad knees so won’t return. Also description as on the water is true if you have a boat. Nowhere to go sit on the water as we thought. Tried to contact owners once as we forgot code and no response but luckily we found it. If we were much younger I would stay here again.
Had a fantastic time at Bluewater Breeze! Perfectly located, quiet, and safe! Amenities aplenty! Will stay again!!!
We have stayed here a couple times now and will be booking more in the future!
House was just ss described. Nice pool area. There are lots of stairs! Quiet time starts at 8pm which means the pool & hot tub close then too. Beware of the neighbors who live next door they do not like any noise after 8pm they called the cops on other guests in another condo for being to loud (the cops told them they were not breaking the law). We had 5 other families that rented condos here too and the quiet time at 8 made it a little difficult especially for our kids who like to play together.
House was very nice. The website should state 3 flights of stairs to manage.
We loved everything about our stay in Carabelle, especially our accommodations. The place was spacious, cute and comfy decor. Also loved the pool and hot tub. We will definitely be back! Margie and Kurt
Great place only thing is if you have a hard time climbing stairs find another place other than that great place
Very nice community! Peaceful and laid back. Short drive to St George Island where we fished for 2 days.
We had to best time at “blue water breeze” it’s the best town with no tourist attractions. It has great food no wait for service, beautiful beaches and wonderful hospitality! We will definitely be back
Beautiful condo, well appointed !!
Well appointed condo. Had everything you needed and more. Anything you forgot they had in the condo. Very close to public boat ramp and swimming pool. Quiet complex. Close to East Point, St George Island, and Appalachicola.
The owners have added a lot of extra little touches like free coffee and snacks, the bed slept very well, the property is very quiet but the parking space is extremely tight and be prepared for lots and lots of stairs! We had a blast!
Perfect location for a relaxing vacation. Great fishing nearby, beaches, hiking and a number of really good seafood restaurants in the area. A notebook on the coffee table provided all sorts of good local information.The property was located off the beaten path and perfectly appointed. We'll be back!
This has to be the most well-stocked place we have stayed with thoughtful hospitable touches, including a lovely welcome basket! It was kid friendly with board games, a great view of the pool/hot tub and an easy walk to the boat dock for kayaking. We also enjoyed the restaurant that's on site-quick and friendly service and the food was good too with something for everyone. We enjoyed a short drive to St. George State Park-we had the beautiful beach almost all to ourselves! We hope to make it back someday as this has to be one of our favorite Florida vacations yet!
