Staying at The Big Blue was a dream! It is just as pictured and described. There are many things that I loved about it. Here are a few: 1) The location: It is the closest building to the security guard gate, which makes it easy going in and out. It is also at the edge of the complex, so your view was unobstructed by any housing to the south and you get a full view of the entire Hamilton Cove complex to the north. It was so picturesque. My husband and I loved sitting on the deck and looking out. 2) I love that the rental came with a golf cart. It really made it easy for us to get around and see all that Avalon had to offer. 3) Jennessa & Helmut provided bath and body toiletries, which were perfect since we did not bring any. 4) The kitchen allowed us to cook our meals. Though we did eat out a lot, we were also able to grill steaks on the deck and cook inside. 5) We arrived about an hour early, so I called Jennessa, who was very responsive. We waited while the cleaning crew finished up and they were kind enough to let us in while they finished up. One thing from observing is that they do their job well. Rest assured that the place is clean for you...

The only potential downside to this place are the stairs. There are 4 flights down to the unit. This did not bother us and we welcomed the workout ;), but if you are older or have issues, this could pose a problem.

My husband had such a great time, he wants to come back every year!
