Our stay at Turtle Cottage is hands down one of the best vacations we’ve ever had! The house was a perfect size for our family of 5 (kids ages 7, 3, and 1) kitchen equipped with everything we needed, pool felt so good after time on the beach, plenty of goodies in the outdoor shed like pool floats, beach toys and buckets, Tommy Bahama beach chairs, beach umbrella and a large wagon to haul everything plus our 3 kids! Plus, less than a minute walk to the beach for nightly sunsets! The Island is very family friendly, quiet in the evening as everything shuts down at 9pm (even the grocery store), short golf cart ride or walking distance to the shopping center that has an array of restaurants and stores, Publix isn’t much further from that, all very close! We only had a golf cart for means of transportation during our stay and we drove it all over AMI, very golf cart friendly there. Gorgeous clear water and white sand, we cannot wait to return! Michele was a dream to work with, very responsive and helpful. Such a lovely week spent at her home!

We had an amazing week at the Blue Turtle Cottage! It is very clean and well appointed. The location is great. It’s a Short 2-3 minute walk to the beach as well as the trolley stop. The backyard is a nice private retreat- our kids loved swimming in the pool! This was our first time to AMI and we enjoyed exploring the different areas! This home is centrally located…there are things to the north and south worth visiting. Michelle provided a pleasant booking experience as well. Thank you for a wonderful week with Zero issues!

This precious little house was perfect for our first trip to Anna Maria! Kitchen is small but well appointed - only disappointment was no garbage disposal with kids that are used to one! The pool and all the furniture was great and the owner super responsive! A 2 minute walk to toes in the sand and she made sure we had enough beach chairs for everyone! Little shed had buckets, shovels, umbrella and boogie boards amoung other various beach necessities!

My family in the Blue Turtle Cottage over New Years and it was everything we hoped it would be. Clean, great location, and lots of pool/beach toys. The shower wasn't draining and Michele responded right away to my e-mail. Charles came to fix it and he was very nice and helpful. We had a great time and will definitely be back!

Enjoyed our stay!

We loved our stay at Blue Turtle Cottage and hope to go back again! There were a few minor maintenance issues but I was always able to get ahold of the owner/ property manager who resolved them.

This was a great house to stay at if you want the beach and a pool of your own. Loved that the beach was less than a minute walk and that at the end of the day we could float in the pool (just our family!) Beach was also considerably less crowded than other areas on the island. Another plus to the location. Michele was a terrific host responding to our needs quickly! I have never had such an awesome host! Highly recommend the house and all that goes with it. Hope to be back in the near future!

Property was clean, convenient, had everything we could ask for and was exactly as advertised. The owner was a pleasure to work with and the location was outstanding. Less than 3 minute walk to the beach. Neighborhood is quiet. Great experience all around. We will definitely stay here again.
