Clean. Well, laid out. Plenty of towels in the shed for us to use, along with tons of boogie boards, floaty’s chairs, and umbrellas There were hooks everywhere, which made it easy to dry off swimsuits. The host friendly and available. The recreation area was just paradise. My kids were able to walk to the beach, barefoot.
The only downside was that we got a lot of mosquito bites our first night. I was able to reduce it by spraying the front door with mosquito repellent, since there were gaps in the front door’s weatherstripping.

Captn Al was awesome with his communication. Maintenance crew, Dominick, was adamant with keep up and very friendly with a great sense of humor.The place was perfect- small but great for 2 people! We loved the atmosphere of the house. Beach-Tacky and definitely an escape from just being at a typical hotel. I loved having kitchen material just because cooking at home is money savvy. We really enjoyed it.. and did NOT want to leave lol
We will definitely be back in touch with Al and see about scheduling another visit soon! :)

We really enjoyed the location and the little house was all we needed. Property management was on site daily for anything needed and they were responsive to needs. It reminded me of a grandparents beach house that was stocked with the older and extra for towels and dishes - which was fine with us. It isn't ritzy, but it is home like, and let's face it, you don't come to the beach to sit inside anyway. We didn't spend much time there aside from sleeping. The bed was comfortable and I slept like a baby. The negative was the floor didn't seem like it had been cleaned in a while. Karen with management offered to have someone come clean it, but I opted to take a mop and do it myself. Unfortunately, I never got around to mopping it. We just kept our shoes on. It wasn't a deal breaker and there were way more positives. The hot tub was nice. We almost bought beach chairs, but learned they provide them free for guest use. There is also an outside shower that has hot water. Overall, we enjoyed the stay and we would stay again.

Pros: Location, cute beach aesthetic, and the amenities. The water pressure is enviable! The main bedroom bed is firm but comfortable and the sheets were soft. Three teens slept comfortably enough on the fold-outs in the living room. Plenty of linens and pillows for all.
Correctable Cons: The main bedroom's wall unit AC contains mold/mildew. There was significant termite residue on kitchen floor on arrival (I thought it was spilled coffee grounds at first.) There is no dishwasher in this unit, but there was no drain plug, dish rack, or dish towels with which efficiently wash and dry dishes. A can opener, spatula, and a full roll of paper towels would have been helpful.
Suggestion: If possible, include updated descriptions of the specific unit and house rules in VBRO welcome email. The documentation in the room seemed to be for a different property so I stopped reading it. Therefore, I missed the requirement of reservations for the communal hot tub. This led to a minor misunderstanding with the teens and property management.

Location was close to the water, and within walking distance of the Rockaway bar, which we enjoyed. This particular cottage was on corner of the street which I didn’t realize until I arrived. Nice that it was dog friendly, but the only close place to walk my dogs was across the street in a sparsely grassed area near construction; which was not well lighted at night. Also the room was not ready when I arrived after 4pm, which was two hours behind the set check in time due to heavy traffic as original check in time was at 2pm; so this was a little frustrating.

Had the best time for the weekend! Capt Al is an amazing host who spent time visiting and offered suggestions of where to eat and what to do. Highly recommend and hope to be back soon! Don’t miss out on this treasure

The Cottage was not cleaned prior to our arrival, garbages in living area and bedroom full, sand all over the floors, and sink smelled like sewer.
If windows were open in the bedroom you smelled the garbage cans outside the window.
It also showed photos of the beach with blue half shells that you can rent on the beach, but that is more than a half mile walk to get to those.
The beaches are beautiful in the area! Uber easily available.
I would not stay in these cottages again.

Perfect location to the beach! Just a few steps away. Easy walk to great restaurants. Capt Al and Dominic were extremely helpful and made our stay more enjoyable. The Shipwreck bar across the street had a few rowdy patrons but overall was ok and not every night.

We were early and captain al was.kind enough to come over and let us in early.the only and i mean only thing that i would change is the comfort of the beds. Our backs were hurting after sleeping. But great guy...perfectly located.

It is ideal for 2 people. Cute cottage steps from the beach. We liked the shared recreation area and the beach chairs cart and umbrella that we borrowed for the day. Relaxing vibe. Private property sign might be good so beach goers don’t mistake it for a cute shop. Yes that happened while we were there. Overall location was awesome and host was patient and warm.

Buyer beware! Property details and amenities received were most definitely not as described in the ad. Confirm details before booking. Spent a decent amount on an attic space we couldn’t stand up fully due to slanted ceilings. No kitchen just microwave and mini fridge. Shower in the middle of the whole space! If I hadn’t planned for only one night I would have been EXTREMELY disappointed. Ask if you are renting “Pineapple Loft” if so don’t do it unless you like teeny tiny! Place was clean but nothing like as described!!

The corner cottage was a nice quiet place to get away for a few days and enjoy the Florida sun.

The place was so run down and nasty. Kitchen sink had bucket under it for water drip, toaster was rusted and covered in grease, silverware in the drawers had grease and food on them, coffee pot was molded, pot itself looked like it was never washed, bathtub felt like it was gonna fall in when you stood in it, bathroom shower could be seen from the window on the front porch. Worst vacation home ever!! We only stayed here because I couldn’t afford to rent another place and this was the first time my grandson had been to the ocean. It was so bad, he wanted to leave the trip early. Pictures of all these cottages must be from 20 years ago, NOTHING looks like it does in the pictures. THIS PLACE IS NOT WORTH WHAT THEY CHARGE PER NIGHT. This place is a cheap $60 a night place and that is a lot for how nasty it was. We found old water bottles behind the nightstand, many extension cords plugged into other extension cords, complete fire hazard. I have pictures that I took of everything I wrote about here. Awful place to stay.

Charming and historic beach cottage. We loved that the cottage was so close to the beach. We walked everywhere with bars and restaurants nearby. Captain AL was very quick to respond to our questions and requests. He had beach chairs, beach towels water toys and anything you may need for the day at beach . Would stay here again!

The cottage is prefect location for walking to the beach, the bed and sleep sofas very comfortable. We cooked in everyday and never used grill but we could smell others cooking, in walking distance for ice cream and shopping, went on the pirate boat ride down at the harbor, well worth every dime. Besides the beach, it is a good place to vacation in a cottage on the beach

Stayed just a night and wanted to be on or at least very close to the beach. Location did not disappoint. Super convenient to beach and loved the fact that they had beach chairs available for the 4 of us...

My family and I stayed for 3 nights and the location was perfect. A short walk to the beach and with in easy walking distance to many good restaurants and entertainment spots. The cabin was great and worked good for our family. Ginger, the housekeeper and rental handy women was incredibly friendly, harding working, and great with our two young kids! The only thing I could have asked for was a bigger frying pan and a spatula in the kitchen but am sure that Ginger would have gladly gotten those for us had we asked! Would stay here again!

Great location! VERY short walk to beach and many great restaurants and bars. The cottages are not new but make for an easy and comfortable spot to enjoy Clearwater beach. No fuss, no hassle, exactly what we were looking for. Wish we could’ve stayed longer.

Great accommodation for family and pets. We had a much needed vacation and had a great time. House was clean, neat and just a few steps away from the beach. Captain Al and his crew were quick to solve any issues.. Clearwater is a beautiful town. Will definitely be back!

Capt Al was great in responding to a check in issue (the new AC blew a fuse and wouldn’t reset at 10:30 the night we arrived) He was right there, working to fix and when it wouldn’t he opened another cottage (larger and nicer) for our stay.
The ambiance is Key West funky and fun! And less than a block to the beach down a quiet road.
Really enjoyed our stay.
