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 Girls’ Trip Location

This cottage is JUST like the photos! You literally step out the front door, off the ground level porch and you’re in the sand. The private beach area in front of the complex was wonderful as were the provided beach chairs to take down to the water. We had everything we needed. Booking process was smooth and the owner was very quick to respond from booking thru checkout. Highly recommend!

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.

Great place

We enjoyed staying at the cottage as it had very easy access to the beach. In the morning, I could sit on the lounge chair and have my coffee with my feet in the sand!. It was easy to get into and out of as the traffic light was a great landmark. The facility was small, compact with everything needed to make a great stay.

Best location ever!

You can't beat the location of this unit. The views are completely amazing. It was clean and had everything you could need for an amazing vacation from beach chairs and umbrellas to a stocked kitchen ( if you're one of those crazy people that cook on vacation). Cheking in is amazingly simple. This is the second time we've stayed there and can't wait to go back!

A Front Row Seat

Terrific location and a unique experience. The first thing you will notice are the views of the Gulf from your living room and kitchen. It is just outside your door. And the warm water and white sand beaches are right in front of you. The unit is clean and has everything you need for a beach getaway (comfy bed, full kitchen, drive up carport right outside). Great communication with owner and easy checkin. Neighbors were close by but quiet and seemed friendly.

Cute cottage right on the beach-loved stepping right out the back door onto the sand back yard!

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.
