About the host
Your host
Some of our best memories come from childhood family vacations. It's our vision to help other families find accommodations in places that are easily reached, provide attractions, and are affordable. Each of our properties provide unique environments, but they are all family friendly. We are here to answer your questions and help you find the right destination for creating vacation memories.
Why they chose this property
We have come to love Longboat Key for the relaxed "no fuss" atmosphere. The Gulf of Mexico is famous for gorgeous blue water and white sand beaches. We love the quiet and carefree pace that comes with the absence of high-rise buildings. We hope you do too!
What makes this property unique
Longboat Key is known for its wildlife, such as, tortoises, egrets, and wild parrots. You may even see some of Longboat Key's famous peacocks. Little Gull Cottage fits right in the area with its charm and style.
