Über diese haus dieses Ferienunterkunft
We’re thrilled to announce that our beloved Beach Cottage weathered the recent hurricanes and has undergone a stunning remodel with a fresh, modern look while preserving its timeless Old Florida charm (SEE OUR VIDEO!)
Discover Paradise at Our Beach Cottage
Nestled on a spacious double lot just 60 steps (120 feet) from the pristine waters of the Gulf, this quaint 1-bedroom beach cottage offers the perfect blend of privacy, charm, convenience and no stairs. Located in a serene residential neighborhood, the cottage is surrounded by lush botanical gardens, creating your own private beachside oasis. Originally an artist’s studio, we’ve lovingly restored this gem with a primo renovation featuring premium plumbing fixtures, granite countertops, custom-tiled showers, solid wood doors and cabinets, and high-end finishes throughout—blending modern upgrades with its original cypress and terrazzo details for a romantic, HGTV-worthy vibe that’s unlike any other rental on the Key.
As our family’s cherished second home that we lovingly share with guests, everything here is top-shelf: premium furnishings, thoughtful details, and quality far beyond typical VRBO or online rentals. It truly feels like staying at a friend’s luxurious beach house.
Prime Location
• Steps from the Beach: Just 120 feet from a wide, private Gulf beach—one of the best spots on the Key for shelling and finding fossilized shark teeth that wash ashore daily (guests often find them guaranteed!). While many other rentals exaggerate their “Gulf views” from much farther away, you’ll enjoy genuine Gulf views right from the property—visible from the bedroom window and especially while relaxing in Adirondack chairs on the patio.
• Close to Everything: A half-mile walk to Stump Pass State Park for nature lovers, and three-quarters of a mile to vibrant restaurants, bars with live music, and shops.
• Stumpy's Free Island Shuttle
• Nearby Lemon Bay (600 ft): Ideal for boating, fishing, or docking your boat with nearby ramps and rentals.
Cottage Highlights
This cozy family vacation home feels like staying at a friend’s house, not a sterile hotel. Fully furnished with everything you need.
The cottage features:
• Smart TVs in all rooms and high-speed Wi-Fi.
• Modern kitchen equipped with top-of-the-line Frigidaire appliances (including a dishwasher) and comfortable living spaces.
• Private, landscaped grounds for a secluded, tropical vibe—plus those inviting Gulf views from the bedroom window and Adirondack chairs on the patio.
• A long history of delighted guests since 2005, with consistently glowing reviews that speak to our commitment to exceptional experiences.
The beautiful property and botanical grounds teem with abundant wildlife: a pair of majestic ospreys nest in the tall pine tree next to the house, a friendly egret often stops by looking for a handout, playful squirrels scamper about, iguanas and rabbits visit, land turtles (including gopher tortoises) roam the grounds, and our location is prime for dolphins, manatee and a prime location for sea turtle nesting—watch for loggerhead turtles and their adorable baby hatchlings during season.
Need More Space?
The adjacent 3-bedroom, 1-bath Main House sleeps 6-8 and boasts a billiards room with a Brunswick drop-pocket pool table—perfect for larger groups or families.
Endless Activities at Your Doorstep
• Relax: Unwind on the beach, soaking in the tranquility of Florida’s Gulf Coast.
• Explore: Visit nearby Stump Pass State Park, bird sanctuaries, or protected wildlife areas.
• Dine & Enjoy: Walk to a bayside Tiki bar, fine dining, casual eateries, or a boardwalk with shops.
• Adventure: Surf cast from the beach, charter a boat for tarpon or grouper, or explore the Gulf by boat.
Perfect for Any Getaway
Whether you’re seeking a peaceful retreat or an action-packed coastal adventure, this cottage delivers. Just minutes from fine dining and nightlife (0.4 miles), and a short drive to Venice, Sarasota, or Fort Myers and Naples, you’ll have the best of Florida at your fingertips. Major attractions like Orlando Disney World are about a 3-hour drive.

The location couldn’t have been better for anyone who loves the beach and nature. Whether you’re searching for shark teeth, relaxing by the water, or watching the sunset, this is the perfect place to unwind and make lasting memories. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would gladly return!

The property was exactly as advertised. It was so clean, you couldn’t tell anyone else had stayed there. Everything is new and very comfortable.The host, Scott, was easy to get in touch with and very helpful with any questions.The property is only a few steps from the beach and in a quiet and uncrowded area.Our overall experience was excellent and we highly recommend staying there!!Great sunsets as well!

Cute very small cottage near the water Kitchen was well supplied there is a home some what attached to the back of the cottage so privacy is an issue if some one is staying in the other property we had to keep the blind shut or they could see directly into the bedroom and people walking by can see in the front The house is on an access street to the beach that is used a lot so when sitting out side people walking to the beach are very close to the sitting area

Check in was delayed until 5:30pm. I reached out to the host multiple times via text and vrbo message without response. Finally a neighbor walked by & talked to us, & called the host. The host then called me & said he didn’t know where his cleaning person was or what happened. The host called the neighbor back & then the neighbor told us he was going to be the cleaning lady for the day (mind you he was drinking & shirtless, not who you’d hope would clean the place you’re staying). We had to go down to a bar & wait for him to clean, & then it sounds like a cleaning person did finally show up. Had the neighbor not asked us if we were checking in when he walked by, I don’t know when we would have heard from the host. We were exhausted from traveling & just wanted to unpack and take a nap but we had to figure all this out and wait. The bed is a double, not a queen, if that matters to anyone. The house is also attached to another house on the lot & the people renting the other house walked right in front of our front door with lots of windows to get to their house. It didn’t feel very private. My husband was changing & walked into the living room to find his swim trunks as a few kids walked by to get to the other house & they definitely saw him naked. Location was great. At the very least we should’ve been offered a discount for the issues with check-in. Frustrating would be an understatement.
