First off I want to say how gorgeous the house is. It was everything and more. We were so excited to spend the weekend celebrating my husbands 42nd birthday. Where the problems started was with the parking. How can you really expect a max occupancy of 10 to be able to only have 4 vehicles. Then to add to that, your at a beach that allows golf carts and side by sides so now add that max occupancy of 10 and all their golf carts/ side by sides and then the trailers they had to travel on. The trailers and golf carts/side by sides are also considered a vehicle so how is that really possible? Then the rules say no large gathering but yet the houses occupancy is 10 so that’s pretty large to me especially when not everyone travels as a family with small children, we had 10 adults all between the ages of 35-60. Then when I found out his parent wanted to stop by to eat I knew that would exceed the 10 to 12 so of respect I had it approved through the owner and he said that was fine. So as we are boiling crab and shrimp and playing music BEFORE the county noise ordinance time of 10pm he came on his golf cart and said “that looks like a party to me” He sent the decibel level to me and stated that our music wasn’t even to the level that alerts him but that the neighbors were complaining so this is definitely not a house to stay at if you like to listen to music and cook outside. I didn’t realize having adults sitting around listening to music cooking and talking and having a good time was having a party. I can see if we were a lot of college kids getting rowdy and loud but even our neighbors next to us came and ate. This place may be ok for a family with kids but definitely not grown mature adults trying to unwind from our busy schedules and looking for a relaxing fun getaway.
BLUE WAVE VACATION RENTALS’ REPLY – This guest accepted the rental conditions concerning the vehicle limit and later complains about it in this review. Raves about the home and gave 3 stars for Accuracy. The maximum vehicle limit of “4” was given up front (Trailers, Golf Carts, Side-by-sides each count as a vehicle). This guest accepted these conditions at booking. At one point, they had 6 vehicles plus a large trailer, side-by-side and golf cart. Ultimately, they ran out of room from all the visitors & guests and started parking at our property next door where they did not have permission to do so. We received multiple complaints from our neighbors about a “party” going on at this home. When I came out, the music was extremely loud. Our homes have unintrusive decibel monitors built into our security system. 91db downstairs and 85db upstairs in open air. Even though this was outside or our “quiet hours”, this guest rented through Airbnb. Therefore, guests are expected to comply with Airbnb’s Community Policy on Guest Reliability Standards.
We state our Rules, Maximum Occupancy, Vehicle Limits and the fact that we do not allow parties in multiple places in our listings as well as our other booking channels and rental agreement.
I would state this to anyone looking at possibly booking our homes; If you don’t agree or intend to follow our rules, then please move along. We state this in our listing description – “RESPONSIBLE ADULTS ONLY: Please take the time to read through and understand “House Rules” prior to booking. This is NOT a party house. This home is intended for responsible adults and families only and should be respected as such”.
Our SuperHost status with Airbnb along with our multiple 5-star review show that we do provide a great home to responsible adults.

We enjoyed our stay at the Blue Water Escape this past weekend. The home has a great location and spacious accommodations. The Owner, Jerry, provided excellent communication from start to finish. We even had to send a little late highly inquiry and Jerry was on top of the communication and “quick resolution”. Looking forward to our next stay.
