Family Getaway

My mom (80), my aunt (87), and I spent a wonderful month at the Blue Nile! From start to finish, everything was perfect. Our host was incredible—thoughtful, attentive, and always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. The property itself was ideal: tucked away in a charming wooded area with only three other nearby homes, it was incredibly quiet and peaceful. The house was fully equipped with everything we needed and more, making it feel like a true home away from home. We also loved how convenient it was to shopping—just under two miles away! During our stay, we explored many of the local parks and attractions and truly enjoyed everything the area had to offer. It was a relaxing, memorable experience for all of us.

Absolutely awesome stay!

If we could give The Blue Nile a 10 rating we would! The house is centrally located in a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood of five houses. All the neighbors were friendly but not intrusive. We felt safe staying there, almost as comfortable as our home in Maine. The inside was spacious and well laid out. Comfy beds, plenty of towels, linens and toiletries were all provided as well as cleaning supplies. Anita was not in the area while we were there but always available via text for any questions. The Blue Nile has everything anyone would need. We stayed there for 7+ weeks and would love to return sometime in the future. It is truly a wonderful place to have as a home base while spending time exploring the Homosassa area.

Spacious Relaxing Oasis

This property is gorgeous. Nice very large fenced in back yard, with an Amazing firepit. Spacious screened in frot porch. The open floor concept makes this a great vacation get away for a family or a group of friends! Anita, took timeout of her schedule to buy hot dog forks, since she knew we were going to use the firepit. The home was exceptionally clean and decorated nicely. We felt like we were at home! We can't wait to plan our next trip to, The Blue Nile!! Anita is an amazing owner and answers any question you may think of!! Anita is a very gracious host! Our first VBRO experience was 100% amazing 👏

Back to our Hometown

Dear Anita We wanted to extend our sincerest gratitude for such an incredible stay at your beautiful home in Florida. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the impeccable decor and spaciousness, making it the perfect haven for our family vacation. Our journey from Washington DC to Florida was lengthy, but the warmth of your hospitality made it all worthwhile. Your generosity in allowing us to check in early set the tone for a truly memorable experience. Despite a minor setback with one of our drivers suffering from sun poisoning, your flexibility and understanding in accommodating us for an extra day exceeded all expectations. Being natives of Homosassa, we appreciated the convenient location of your home, which allowed us easy access to all the places we hold dear. Overall, our trip was a resounding success, thanks in large part to your graciousness and the comfort of your home. We're already eagerly planning our next adventure to Florida and can't wait to return to your welcoming abode.

This was our families second time staying here. We liked it so much we decided to stay here the next time. The house is very spacious with an open floor plan and a nice yard for the kids. The neighborhood is very peaceful and relaxing and is located within driving distance to everything you need.
