HOSTED BY THE 979 CREW ADVANTAGE:

The 979 Crew is comprised of island locals who are passionate about making sure the home you chose is nothing short of clean, comfortable, and ready for your group's fun! Every home is fully and professionally cleaned after each guest stay. In addition, all of our homes feature luxury hotel-quality/high thread count on all sheets, bedding, and bath towels which are replaced upon every turnover including the duvet covers and shams (we've heard not every company does this, and we think that's just gross). We take clean seriously! When you rent a 979 home, you'll also receive the 'comforts of home' guest welcome starter supply of shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, tp and paper towels, dishwasher and clothes washer pods. We want your stay to be as easy as you do, and the 979 Crew aims to deliver on that commitment. We love our island guests!

WIFI/TV SERVICE:

Our properties include WIFI/Internet and TV service for your streaming services. Due to our location (Island living is a whole other way of life), service may be unpredictable or spotty, and repair times can be delayed. While we will do everything we can to ensure these items are in good working order before your arrival, please note, these services may not be as consistent as they are in your area. So grab your favorite people, ditch the electronics, and spend the day at our beautiful beaches!

We had a wonderful stay at Casa Azul. The enclosed back yard was perfect for our little dog. The location is excellent with a 2 block walk to the crosswalk on Seawall Blvd. The house is very comfortable and not being elevated with many steps is a plus. Hightly recommended.

Great little place

This house had cute interior decor and was very clean. It was about a 2 block walk to the beach, so we loved the location. There is a little back porch with a table, great for morning coffee or evening wind down when weather permits. Super comfy beds and window units provided great white noise for sleeping.
