The pools are surrounded by wooden decks with lounge chairs, patio furniture with comfy blue cushions, and white beach umbrellas. The highlight are the two side-by-side pools with infinity edges, along with a third pool found just beyond the restaurant area. The hotel provides ample features to keep guests happy.

Ground-floor rooms feature patios with private jetted tubs. A certain number of rooms offer furnished balconies or patios with hotel or pool views. Streamlined bathrooms include showers with rainfall showerheads and simple bars of free soap. Washer and dryer units are tucked away inside hallway closets. And most include dining tables, sofas, soft chairs, and additional flat-screen TVs. Most living areas feature floor-to-ceiling windows along at least one wall to highlight the hotel’s wonderful views. Kitchens include a standard selection of cookware, along with thoughtful extras you might not expect like dishwashers, blenders, and electric mixers. Ranging in size from one to five bedrooms, condos offer large living areas, additional bathrooms, and full kitchens with ovens. Most rooms offer wall-mounted flat-screen TVs, and large closets with plenty of storage space. Some rooms add contrast with wooden cabinetry or pops of multicolored nautical artwork, while others keep the design clean and minimalist. Most rooms feature white-on-white color schemes, with crisp white bed linens, white walls, and white furniture.

Guest rooms at Blue Residences are privately owned condos, which means the decor can vary from room-to-room based on the tastes of each owner. Guests (which usually include both couples and families) seeking a lively on-site atmosphere, however, should look elsewhere. It’s not uncommon to find yourself completely alone by the pools or on the beach. Blue Residences offers a fair range of features, yet the property is compact overall, fostering an intimate atmosphere. The fitness center, spa, and concierge desk are found within the main building, and the beach is across the boulevard. The complex is composed of three towers which overlook the pools and the small restaurant complex. Carefully placed bushes at the front of the property allow for a view of the ocean across the boulevard, while minimizing the sight of the road itself. The pools are set on the property’s meticulously landscaped lawn, which is dotted with colorful flowers and palm trees. As you might expect given the complex's name, blue shows up as an accent color in most common areas, often paired with white to create a pleasantly beachy appearance. Everything about this property is modern and polished. B.V.Opened in 2014, Blue Residences has a fresh-out-of-the-box look and feel.
