Really comfortable apartment, clean, nice fixtures and fittings and very comfy beds. Great location, particularly if you have dogs or kids as park right next door.
Some slight signs of wear in apartment that could do with attention.

Mr Blue Sky is typical holiday accommodation located on a residential road high above St Ives' bay areas. It's very spacious, and has two good-sized bedrooms. There are two sofas in the sitting room, and an excellent TV which has all the players ready to use - Netflix, Amazon Prime, iPlayer, 4player etc, as well as live TV. The kitchen has a washing machine and dishwasher, and there is a dedicated parking space in the front courtyard.
If you rent this property, be ready for a steep climb back up to it on your return from the beach. Like all accommodation of its kind, Mr Blue Sky has that slightly shabby, down-at-heel look and feel because it doesn't receive the care and attention that proper homes do. This doesn't mean it was dirty - it wasn't, it had been cleaned to a good standard for our arrival. The front door key did not operate smoothly and had to be manipulated this way and that before it finally turned - not a good start, but you get used to it. The front fanlight window was difficult to open and close because the mechanism is caked in dust and grime. Although there were two good sofas, there was no coffee table - we had to improvise with a wooden shoe rack and kitchen tray. Unbelievably, someone installed a kitchen in this property with plenty of cupboards, but not a single drawer. In the upper bedroom, a smoke or CO detector had been left dismantled near the window, with its empty baseplate on the ceiling above - this is a serious defect, as it could compromise guests' safety. There are some strange up-and-down steps throughout the property - you go down into the kitchen, then up into the lower bedroom. The bed in this room has a rather alarming drop right beside it, and the outer legs of the bedside table on that side are teetering on that edge - the slightest push would cause it to fall. Again, this is a potentially hazard for guests. The floating frame above the bath in that room is extremely loose on the wall, and is another potential hazard. To summarise, the property could do with some serious attention to maintenance issues, and the facilities could be improved. The company doing the holiday letting for this property is called Luxury Coastal, but "luxury" is one thing that this property isn't, and we question its value for money.

Great location. Close to great beaches and a park for our dog. Easy parking. Walking distance to the town and Tate. Generous accommodation. Comfortable beds.
Ventilation was problematic. Extractor fans in the bathroom and kitchen would have made a difference.
The microwave overheated. Smoke came out of the back, and the smell lingered. It was unusable.
