We came to the island for the first time for two weeks. The cottage was great . We loved the location. We explored the whole island and concluded we had picked the best area! Goose and Dan were great hosts. The cottage was wonderful! The pool and hot tub area was amazing! We would have used it more had the weather been warmer! Overall it was a great trip and we will be back!

We stayed here for 4 nights just before Thanksgiving. All correspondence leading up to visit was super helpful.
Dan and Goose there to meet us on arrival, warm and welcoming.
The property is so well equipped, the attention be detail was amazing. Just what we needed after 2 weeks at Disney.
The location at Bean Point - perfect.
Golf buggy that is included - nippy.
Recommendations - perfect and person-centred down to the time of sunset.
Wine, beer in the porch and chocolates. ❤️
Would recommend to anyone wanting a great vacation.
Pool area amazing with TV and BBQ.
Thank you! Debbie, John and Eilidh from Scotland.

Dan & Goose were nothing short of amazing! They have thought of everything that you could possibly need while on vacation and have it available for you at the cottage. We loved AMI and will def be back to stay again!

This was a perfect, calm, private and wonderful rental on AMI. Dan and Goose were excellent hosts, easy to communicate with, kind, and very helpful. They have thought of everything to go the extra mile and make their rental fully equipped, comfortable and inviting...from the coffee bar, to bountiful towels, to ample sunscreen, to all the pool and beach toys you could need. The property was clean, and the pool area was absolutely incredible...a tropical private oasis. The beach was a 5 min walk to the most desirable area to watch the sunset. We are thrilled with our stay, and our 3 small children adored the place, the golf cart and the island. Thanks Dan and Goose for a memorable and comfortable family vacation!

Love the place!!! The stars say it all. They go above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need, from plenty of linens to beach toys, a kayak, and sup boards. The pool was great!

Honeymoon was spoiled. Thought we were getting a private getaway as stated. Owners are scamming people. All photos make it seem as if it is a private cottage. It is a duplex. Owners live in the other side FULL TIME. They can look out of their bedroom window and see every square inch of the hot tub and pool. Notice every picture doesn’t show their side of the “cottage”. We reached out beforehand and told them it was for our honeymoon. Who would want to stay in a duplex on their honeymoon…On top of it all the owners asked us to top off the 3 gallon gas tank on the golf cart…. You’d think after spending 500 a night to stay there they could fill their own cart up. Don’t be fooled like we were. Huge disappointment.

We had a wonderful time at Castaway Cottage! The charming cottage is literally stocked with everything you could need and then some. Review the list of amenities and save yourself the luggage space! You can walk to the beach easily and the golf cart provided was so great to take short drives to the piers, dinners, and shopping. We drove our truck one time the whole week. The beautiful pool in the back was our favorite feature and used every day between beach and dinners. The owners are so friendly and responsive and go out of their way to make sure you have any and all questions answered. We loved it and hope to visit again :)

We had the best time at the cottage. The cottage is in the best location on the island and the beaches are beautiful on the north end. Dan and Goose was amazing host the whole time we was there. We will for sure be back.

We traveled to Castaway Cottage for an end of summer family getaway. We had such a wonderful stay! Castaway Cottage has everything you need, and more! The backyard is an oasis, and it is only a short walk to beautiful Bean Point. The sunsets are spectacular! Thank you for a lovely AMI vacation!

The property had everything we needed for our family with young kids (3,5,7). Quick walk to the beach, short drive to shops and restaurants, and a great pool area! We loved AMI and can't wait to go back.

Our stay at Castaway Cottage was nothing short of Amazing and relaxing!!! Goose and Dan have the house set up so well with all that you need to enjoy your stay that you only have to pack your clothes and decide on what you want to do first- whether it be a jump in the cool relaxing pool or take a short walk to the beach!! My family was already planning our next stay before we even left, lol!!! All the special attention Dan and Goose give to you as a guest is nothing I have experienced before- with the complementary drinks on our arrival to the home from the fridge on the porch, the bottle of wine for later that night, the awesome coffe bar set up, all the amenities you need to make your meals there (all the spices and cooking oils you would ever need!!) Along with a wonderful welcome packet to give you the low down on all the restuarants nearby to hit and activities-- all this together spoiled us and will make it hard not to compare to other vacations we take outside of castaway cottage!!! Truly loved getting to know Goose and Dan!! Goose is very prompt on responding to any text or emails and she is genuinely the sweetest and nicest host!!
Thank you for making our first big vacation a one to truly remember!! ❤️

We loved our time at castaway cottage! Definitely the best equipped house we’ve ever stayed at in AMI. We’ve been turned off in recent years after having to buy every conceivable thing we’d need for our vacation because the houses came with nothing; this was the opposite experience! The kids loved the paddle boards, zooming around in the golf cart and all the fun beach toys that were provided. The pool area is phenomenal as well. All in all a great stay!
5.0
Dan & Goose have thought of everything. We truly only needed to back our bag of clothes. They had it all. Such an enjoyable stay. Our favorite part was the outdoor shower. To jump in a cold shower in the heat was divine!

We couldn't have been happier with our stay at Castaway Cottage. Dan and Goose have created a little slice of heaven with this cozy, amazingly setup and stocked home. Close to the beach, restaurants, shops and activities, we had plenty to keep us busy if we wanted. We chose to spend most of our time hanging out in the beautiful backyard, in and around the pool. So many small details made this an absolute dream location for us and for our two teenagers. We highly recommend staying here for anyone wanting to spend quality time together by the pool, at the beach or around AMI. Thank you both for such a lovely, relaxing place to stay for a few days.

Dan & Goose are 5 star hosts!
Everything was as advertised. My family and I did not need anything that Dan & Goose hadn’t already thought of and provided. Literally everything! Amazing amenities and location! I would certainly recommend booking with these hosts when visiting AMI.

Dan and Goose provided wonderful hospitality during our stay. The house was clean and had everything we needed. We would recommend this location to anyone and can not wait to come back.

The cottage had everything we needed and more. All the extras they had available for us (beach towels, beach chairs, bikes, beach toys etc.) made it really nice and easy for us to not need to pack on our own.
The location is perfect and it's an easy short walk to the Gulf. The cottage itself is very clean and nicely decorated. I would definitely stay here again and I would highly recommend staying at this cottage.

Dan and Lori were awesome! The house was equipped with everything you need from kitchen stuff to beach gear. We were greeted personally by them, and they even had champagne for us because we were celebrating our anniversary. The house was in an amazing area with a short walk to the beach and the golf cart was helpful to get around to the different restaurants and shops. It was very clean and we had no issues. We will definitely be back to this property or one of their others for sure!

Dan and Goose have a slice of paradise in this property and the experience they provide. The backyard Oasis, the countless additional amenities they provide, the location of the property, the communication and the recommendations literally can't be beat. We couldn't have enjoyed our time here any more than we did, and will certainly have this place at the top of our list the next time we come to AMI.

We’ve all heard it before… and this spot nails it! Location is so important. You’re literally a 7 minute walk from sunrise or sunset. Bean Point is right there! Great pool and I mean GREAT! It’s private and has a nice hot tub. Plenty of beach stuff for the kiddos. Chairs, paddle boards, biycyles, and a sick golf cart.
Inside is quaint and full connected via the internet. But, why use that when you’ve got AMI to explore?! Seriously, we always shut off our phones and get to exploring. The rental is less than 5 minutes from the pier via the golf cart. Excellent ice cream at Two Scoops. Beautiful dining experience at the Rod and Reel.
We visit every year because this rental is the best. It’s got location. It’s got amenities. And it’s got great owners. Dan and Lori are the best. Plan a visit soon!

We had a great stay at Dan and Goose's; when we arrived, they greeted us, gave a quick tour, and answered any questions we had. The place was nicely stocked and clean. The beach and shops were minutes away, but what we enjoyed the most was the pool area. A little piece of heaven right in the backyard. There was a slight hiccup with the pool tv, and Dan was over to fix it almost immediately. Relaxing place to stay on AMI!

Beautiful, cozy, CLEAN cottage. The back patio with the pool, hot tub & grill were my favorite! Great set up! Not to mention the amenities —bikes, paddle boards, kayaks and you can strap them straight to the golf cart. Everything you need to sit back and enjoy a get away!!! They also went out of the way to surprise us with birthday cupcakes, chocolate & wine!!!! Thank you again for a great stay!!

My wife and I along with our sister and brother in law spent 3 wonderful nights at Castaway Cottage and thoroughly enjoyed everything about it. The amenities are incredible and the use of the golf cart, bicycles, beach equipment, swimming pool and spa are an outstanding extra. Close proximity to the beaches (plural) makes for a great vacation spot.

First time exploring AMI, Goose and Gander provided everything we needed and then some for a few days of AMI fun and exploration!! They covered all the bases. Castaway is a little hidden gem, quiet and off the beaten path...just they way we like it!
