Great location and perfect for bringing your pet. Walls are pretty thin and on the weekend you can hear everyone's loud music, but the A/C drowns it out pretty well. The floors were pretty dirty, making your feet brown on the bottom after barely walking around, so we did wear sandals inside. There were no beach towels, and the kitchen is stocked with very nice appliances and pots and pans. There is no basic kitchen cooking materials such as salt pepper or olive oil. In the back, there is an outdoor shower and hose which are great after a day on the beach. The inside shower was extremely small, would definitely be difficult for someone larger to use. Overall, we were pleased with our stay.

It wasn’t what I thought it was going to be. Parking was horrible. You walk in to the bedroom at the front door. That mattress was very poor. My wife and I sagged into the middle making trying to sleep very uncomfortable and if you have a bad back it would be worse. There was a stove in the kitchen but no oven. It was ok for what we needed but I will never stay there again.
The property management company was amazing. Very nice to deal with and made it super easy for us. Great little place with all you need provided. Beach ,restaurants everything minutes away. Perfect location for easy access to all Port A has to offer.

Thank you for your feedback — I'm sorry your stay missed the mark.
We take these concerns seriously. I’ve opened an investigation and have scheduled a deep clean and mold inspection immediately. The dehumidifier will be professionally cleaned or replaced, and we’ll inspect the unit for any lingering odors. We’re also reviewing the mattress and bedding, checking for noise/thin-wall issues, and restocking supplies (mop, extra towels, paper towels, coffee/filters, sugar, creamer). We’ll update the listing and photos and clarify parking availability so expectations match reality.
I’m glad you enjoyed the yard. Please reach out via Vrbo messages so we can follow up and make this right. Thanks again for letting us know — your notes help us improve.
The location is good, can walk to most restaurants and it's close enough to the beach to walk but a car or cart is recommended if you are taking a bunch things. We really enjoyed the screened in gazebo. Such a relaxing space. Check in was easy and kitchen had enough dishes and utensils to make some easy meals. Mattress was too soft. However, overall we had a great stay.
This was a great experience! It was just enough room and space for 2 people. We loved the back yard and the private enclosed area! It was near everything downtown, and was just what we needed! We will definitely be back!
We always enjoy staying at The Lorna Cottage in Spanish Village. Sand Key Realty does an excellent job having everything ready for us. We will see you next time!!
The location was awesome. The cabana needs attention. The screens were torn and cushions were too dirty to use. The shower was too small and the floor inside the shower needs to be fixed. Had to clean the ac filters. The golf cart is a must,reasonable and close by.
The place looked so cute , charming and adorable in the pictures. The pictures made it seem the backyard was clean, green trimmed well kept and simply breathtaking. However, when we drove up, all the shrubs were of a crown the plants were dead. If you walk to the back, there was no plants in the pots. The grass was overgrowing the fresh granite the shrubs were overgrown to be able to open the back screen door. The closed import in the back was dirty old. Nothing like the picture. Everything was a dull, the paint was dull. The police was dirty. The inside was crammed. In one corner there were so many wires to so many different things. It looked terrible. The TV in the kitchen living room didn’t work. The sofa bed was sunk in. The main bed was disgusting, the mattress was horrible dirty look like somebody just bought and placed a thick foam on top of it. When you sat on the bed, you sunk into the bottom. If you look at this listing on VRBO it is immaculate. It looks gorgeous. However, it’s nothing how it was. After speaking to VRBO and trying to get our money back, they said the reason for some of the landscaping was the stage three water restrictions. Which totally contraindicated what we actually saw. What we actually saw was the opposite, everything overgrown. They would not give us our money back. They only offered to give us 100 back. They reason they said was because we did complete this day. However, we did look around for another place to stay, everything was booked
We truly enjoyed our stay, easy to locate, easy to access, and easy checkout.
The cabana was the favorite feature for sure. We spent most of our time there. Very peaceful and relaxing.
Clean and nicely decorated. Had all the creature comforts.
Thank you!!
We will return!
