The island has 7 miles of beautiful sugar-white sandy beach where you will see pelicans dive, dolphins play and the ibis run.

Starfish Cottage is situated towards the top end of Anna Maria Island. The property is extremely well furnished and equipped with everything we hope you would want to enjoy your holiday.

The master bedroom has a king bed and benefits from an en-suite shower room and the 2nd bedroom has twin beds. The family bathroom has a bath with overhead shower, basin and WC.

Outside in the tropically landscaped garden you will find the free form pool with waterfall which is shared with the occupants of our 2 smaller cottages (at most there would be 4 additional people using the pool), loungers, chairs and tables.

Good but not great
The location was amazing!!! About 50 steps to the beach. The house was as described but there were a few things we were disappointed in. 1) the master bath was so small the door wouldn’t even open all the way it would hit the toilet. Also, the water pressure in that shower was not good. 2) the cookware in the kitchen, wasn’t the best in the stove was hard to regulate 3) there were not any trash bags at the property so I had to purchase some 4) ants! Ants were everywhere in the dining room and in the kitchen area. 5) need better beach chairs. The few that were there are rusted All in all was a great place to stay in the above items wouldn’t keep me from staying here again.

Beautiful getaway
The home was beautiful and well maintained. It was decorated nicely and was very clean. It met all our needs. The pool was outstanding with the umbrella tables and lounge chairs. The private beach just a short distance away was amazing with beautiful sunsets. We definitely would come back and stay here!!

Great Location
The cottage was perfect for my family of 4. My young kids loved the pool and the short walk to the beach. The location was perfect for everything we needed. The kitchen was also well stocked so we could eat in with ease. We’ll be back!

Holiday vacation at starfish cottage
My family enjoyed our holiday celebration vacation at the starfish cottage. We enjoyed the wonderful location on Anna Maria, the comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen and the beautiful patio with heated pool. We were happy to be near many shops to pick up donuts and to get breakfast. The cottage is great for enjoying family dinners and it was so nice that the host supplied some water, snacks and a bottle of wine. We truly felt fortunate to find this wonderful spot and hope to return soon.
