Amazing and restful stay

Exceeded my expectations. It had everything you need in the kitchen, comfortable queen size bed, beach towels and washer and dryer. Check-in, communication, cleanliness were perfect. The beautiful sandy beach with afternoon sunsets were just steps away from the cottage.

Right on the beach

Small cottage right on the beach. Perfect size for one or two people. It is one of the very few single-story units left in that area that sit directly on the sand. Unit had everything you need for a great stay. Communication with owner was superb. Located close to a convenience store, bakery, and coffee shops. The beach is long, walkable, and gorgeous. Watch the sunset from the cottage or from the private beach. We would absolutely select this unit if we return there.

Perfect spot

This was the perfect location and size for me. I have taken a week off and spent it on the beach for the last three years and this was by far my favorite location. You are literally steps from the beach. The unit was clean and comfortable. I will be booking this location next year! Thanks Linda!

Easy

what an easy vacation. I took a taxi from the airport and stayed for five days. I love to walk so it was fun and convenient. The place was clean and everything is working. It really is directly on the beach! I recommend it for single travelers, couples and people seeking a place a bit quieter than just a few miles south down the beach.

Amazing location

This has to be the closest we’ve ever been to the gulf. You can stand in the kitchen looking at the water and have your feet in the ocean in a matter of seconds. The cottage was clean and cozy and more than enough beach supplies provided. Neighbors were all very nice. Linda was very nice and accommodating, very easy to communicate with. We made so many amazing family memories and would definitely stay here again!

Location was perfect. Gulf FRONT. It's on the quieter side with plenty of seating & toys to use. The cottage had everything we needed. Our only complaint was the tiny kitchen sink. Can't say that was a major concern @ all. Would highly recommend

Great Relaxing Beach Experience

Perfect for 2 adults wanting to get away. Property was very well maintained and appointed. Comfortable and complete with kitchen items, towels, beach chairs, etc. Upon checking in, we found that ice was provided as well as start-up paper products and soap. Convenient to a variety of restaurants. Loved the view and being able to walk right out onto the beach. Proved to be a quiet and relatively secure location (would suggest adding a dead bolt to exterior bedroom door). We look forward to another stay in the future. Thank you!

Welcome to the beach

Old time Florida beach time with all the modern luxury. Open the windows and listen for the lull of the sea. Backyard is the beach, private loungers all set and ready to lay in the sun! Steps over the dune and you are there. Sunsets that leave you humbled and shells along the shore, water clear and beautiful. Watch for the dolphins to pass by. Only wish we could live there. What a life. So for just our one week, thank you, Linda, for sharing your slice of paradise.

Stop, do not look further. RENT HERE.Family of four, six-year-old and 10-year-old. Very close to the beach where you can walk back-and-forth or food or drinks or anything else. The property was very clean well taken care of and the communication was excellent.Everything that we could think that we wanted to bring to the beach was supplied in a small shed on the property. Highly recommended and we hope to come back again.
