Great location! Steps from the beach.
We had a wonderful time. Very short walk to the beach. The location can not be beat. Cute cottages. We stayed in one and a friend stayed in another. The kiddos were safely running between. They are very nice old cottages. Cant beat the location. Capt. AL always responded. Thank you! We had a great time.

Perfect beach bungalow
We tend to visit clearwater about 6 times a year and after staying here this time i am so upset i never found it before! The owners and employees were so welcoming and friendly but werent pushy like anywhere else you stay! Also, the amount of items necessary for a day at the beach was an extra bonus i didnt know we needed. Absolutely recommend 100% and will be staying here again!!

Cute and location was excellent
It's just north of the strip but can walk into the action in a matter of minutes. It's a 3 minute walk to the beach. The property has chairs, and beach stuff to borrow. The property itself was very cute and corky! It's tight but it worked well for us. The captain was excellent with communication! Would definitely come back again. Thank you

Classic Beach House - Very Nice Shabby Chic
Clearwater Beach offers mostly soulless high rises, but this 100-year-old cottage has the character of Old Florida (something we like a lot.) This apartment is reasonably spacious and decorated with real style. The cottage is old and every surface has probably 20 layers of paint, but that is part of its old charm. The kitchen was modern and well equipped. The courtyard was a bit less cared for -- some clutter and it would have benefited from a daily leaf-blowing. I guess this complex attracts families with small children, which was nice. It really is almost right on the beach. Overall, we were charmed.

The location is perfect for whatever you want to do. It's close to the beach, restaurants and shops but it's a couple streets north of the hustle and bustle so the street is quiet. Capt. Al responds by text quickly and will do whatever he can up make your trip work for you.

Couldn't stay--double booked
Arrived at night to find property had been double-booked and we had no place to stay. I had texted manager during driving to let him know what time we were arriving. Manager worked with me to find a place to go (with 4 children in our group) during spring break. Extremely fortunate to find someplace that could accommodate our group, but it was more expensive. Communication between computer systems problem?? Manager had responded to a previous email and that day had answered my text, so he knew we were headed his way. Very tense hour or two, wondering were we were going to stay, or having to drive inland.

We had a very good time and would've stayed another day if it were available. This was a nice comfortable little collage. Perfect for a family of 3 - 5. The staff was very friendly and courteous. It literally is only steps from the beach (less than a 100 yards).

Great mini getaway!
Quite enjoyed our stay! Fun, laid back setting that was right up our alley. Very pet friendly and extremely close to the beach and within walking distance to the popular beach hangouts. Staff was friendly and helpful, wish we were able to stay longer and would return!

Great property and location, communication not so great.
We had a great time. We got everything we needed and our trip never felt like a hassle. Everything was clean and orderly, extra supplies were not a problem when needed. The only thing I would recommend is better communication from the property manager/owner. It was a bit sporadic and never did get responses when we were checking out.

Perfect Beach Cottage
If you are looking for the perfect place to stay for your Clearwater vacation, look no further. This place was not only a few steps to the beach, but also the perfect distance away from the crowd. The cottage we stayed at was the perfect for our family. It was clean and exactly the way it was described in the listing. Next time we go to Clearwater, I will for sure be staying here again.
