Delighted you loved the cottage. Thank you for noting that everything, including beach towels, was clean, comfortable, and perfect! We do offer the cleanest rentals on Anna Maria Island and always appreciate when guests pick up on this. Most of all I am so happy that you are planning on being our guests again! Over half of our guests return. We realize there are many choices out there and when our guests return it's the biggest compliment they can give us!
A nice quiet area! There’s lots of space outside the bungalow to sit and relax or grill your dinner, then a short walk to enjoy the sunset on the beach. Would definitely come back to stay again.

Cute little cottage close to the beach and a short walk to bridge st pier. It was clean, quiet, and comfortable, and the courtyard was delightful for sitting and reading. We appreciated having access to beach equipment and towels! We would definitely stay here again!
Highly recommend! Great location bay to the east and golf to the west. Trolly picks you up at the corner very convenient. Would stay at this location hundred more times.
We had an excellent stay! Really clean and cute! Had everything you could need and then some for your stay! Really close to the beach and restaurants! We liked it so much we tried to extend our stay another day or two but unfortunately for us it was already booked. But we will definitely stay there again!!
Cozy islandy feel. Convenient to the beach, local shops and great restaurants. The host went above and beyond our expectations to accommodate us. Special thanks to Mark for making our stay a great experience! We will definitely come back again!

Thanks for being fabulous guests and we look forward to having you back this winter!! Glad you liked our most sought after and narrow part of the island. Steps from the bay and beach on either side! Easy walk to historic Bridge st with all the best restaurants and entertainment, boutique shops and activities!
We had a wonderful time at Island Getaway. It was a great location. Close to the beach and restaurants. Loved the Courtyard area for hanging out. It was a nice quiet place to enjoy. We walked everywhere. Chris was very responsive.
We would love to come back again.
Host is very quick to respond, the unit and patio area are both very well maintained. Multiple grills and seating options available in the palm lined common courtyard.

Thanks for your great review. Glad you enjoyed our serene and beautiful courtyard. Come back real soon!
We enjoyed our two night stay very much. Our unit was clean, comfortable, and just as described. It is a very easy walk to the beach. The property manager, Chris, was most accommodating and helpful. We will definitely stay here again. Thank you!
My husband and I had the best time here. The property is in a perfect location and walking distance to the shops and restaurants. Loved that they provided all the beach equipment we needed to get to and from the beach easily. The unit itself was perfect for our weekend getaway, very nice and cozy, just like in the pictures.
We didn’t want to leave but already thinking of when we’re coming back ☺️
Great place for staying, nice yard with nice ambiance. We really enjoyed our stay
Property was nice a quiet. Beautiful garden inside. Only few steps to ocean on one side and nice bay on another. You are in between two beauties for sunrise on one side and sunset on other. It is close to restaurants and grocery store. The beach was clean and nice. Ocean water is clear.

A Perfect Florida Bungalow
We had such a wonderful stay at this Florida rental. The place was so clean and very charming. It lived up to it's description. The location was fantastic. A short walk to the fishing dock to watch the sunrise on the Intercoastal,. Another short walk in the other direction to a beautiful white sandy beach and gorgeous sunsets. We would definitely stay here again. We had rented a car but you could walk easily to the restaurants and the nightlife.

Thank you for your review and we look forward to your next visit!
We loved our stay. Apartment was small (not a lot of space to hang things or prepare meals) but we were able to make due. The location was superior! A short walk to the beach or the dock on the bay. Walking distance to good restaurants and a few shops. Lovely courtyard with cooking grills and tables with umbrellas. We suggest renting a car as supermarkets are a ways away. We will definitely try to get back to this location in the near future.
