Absolutely loved our stay! House is located well with easy walk to the beach and golf cart made getting to restaurants very convenient and quick. House has been recently renovated after storms in 2024 so it’s in great shape. Being only 800 sq ft it’s a little tight but fine for a family or 3 or 4. Kitchen is well stocked and made it easy to cook when we wanted. Outdoor pool is absolutely fantastic with an outdoor TV, lounge chairs, grills and huge hot tub. They have everything you need for the beach so just bring your swim suit and a toy for the kid and get ready to chill!

What a wonderful place!! We had everything we needed and more. We couldn’t of expected anymore from the hosts. We will be returning!!

Cute, quaint, little cottage! Good for four people. Clean, walk to the beach within minutes, near eateries and restaurants with the use of the golf cart which is included. Everything you need for home, is already here!

Beach getaway

We went to Ana Maria Island for a quick beach getaway before school started. August in Florida is extremely hot and the ocean water is very warm. The cottage and all of its amenities offered a reprieve from the Florida Sun. The pool was the perfect temperature to cool off and enjoy outside in the summer heat. The cottage itself had every amenity that you would possibly need during your stay. The location was perfect with beach access very close by, making it easy to get to the beach for the beautiful sunsets. The golf cart was an added bonus and made it easy to get everywhere on the island. We would definitely recommend staying at this cottage and look forward to returning ourselves!
