Great location to beach but not truly pet friendly
This is conveniently located right by the beach, just a short walk and you’re there. We loved the location! However, there is a $100 pet fee (which I understand having pet fees) for a property that doesn’t give your pets a place to relieve themselves. There is no grass anywhere on the property. This posed to be a major inconvenience. Also, the ceiling is slanted on both sides… so watch your head at all times. Overall, good property and great location.

Cute and Quaint
Super cute almost like a doll house. Awesome location. Clean,no bugs. Not recommended for tall people at all. We not super tall but I’m 5 8 and my husband and boys are 5 9 and 6 foot. We did keep hitting our heads on the ceiling because of the slant. I didn’t give it 5 stars because one it says sleeps 6 I don’t think if we had 6 people we would all fit and we almost did.And it’s pet friendly which was why we chose it there is nowhere to walk the dogs. No grass you literally have to go across the street and it’s scary at night by yourself. My suggestion is that they make a designated spot for dogs. Besides that it’s cute and quaint for shorter people, but we did enjoy our stay!!!

The location was great. Right on the beach and Just a 10 min walk to the shops and restaurants and only 20 min walk to the pier. If you don’t need a kitchen the cottage was perfect with 2 rooms and 4 beds and communication was great Captain Al was always quick to respond. Would definitely stay here again.

Weekend
The old Florida cottage was old Florida. It was clean with history and very friendly property management. I grew up in this area and this is what vacation was before all the resorts cluttered the beach. I mis booked our cottage and the manager met me and fixed it without argument. Close to the beach and far enough from south beach that you had some peaceful time off. Would definitely go back and have already recommended to several friends and family.

The stay was a great time. The location and neighborhood was excellent. It was a one minute walk from the beach. However, it was just very small and hard to move around.

Exactly as advertised
The place was very clean and exactly as advertised. Definitely not for really tall people. But if you are looking for a reasonably priced, well located, comfortable and clean, slightly quirky place, then this is the spot for you. Owner was very responsive and provided everything we needed. I would stay there again.

Great location, but not the most comfortable
The location of this property is great. Close to the beach, not far from the restaurant scene, but far enough where it is not too loud or crazy since we brought our kids. The room we stayed in was not the cleanest. There was garbage under the beds and the glasses were noticeably not clean. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. 3.5 out of 5

Quiet location
We went to celebrate a friend's birthday and 3/7 of us stayed at this place. It was away from the busier areas (where are friends stayed) which was nice and everything was a short walk away. If you're looking for something more than a place to sleep/relax and shower than may not be for you. Description says NO KITCHEN which i totally understand making sure renters know, but it surprisingly still had 2 small fridges, toaster oven and microwave, which was nice. An abundance amount of places to sleep and Capt Al responded quickly when we had a small issue w the shower. (Which is very small and oddly located but again, does the job) We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would stay again!

Location was amazing!
Property has amazing potential but has no attention to detail. No frills is an understatement. It was a place to sleep and relax out front but the common area we did not use because of the clutter and lack of comfort. It served it's purpose because of its great location.

Great location!
We had a wonderful stay at the cottages. Capt Al was very helpful and responded to all questions/concerns. The location is right on the beach. Food and shops are all within walking distance. The cottages are away from the hustle and bustle of the night life, but still close enough, should you want to participate. The area of the cottages is on the quieter end of town. We would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Capt. Al

Host profile image
Hello Travelers, and welcome to my Owners Story. It 's very long but in a nutshell, I am retired Doctor in Florida , licensed since 1976, and love the vacation rental business. Now living in Clearwater Beach, I enjoy swimming in the warm Gulf waters in summer, taking my guests out on my 21 foot runabout, enjoy the Salt Life of this cute little island, and the company of my like minded congenial neighbors. When you come to visit, my first mate, Karen and myself will show you how to loose yourself in the Clearwater Beach lifestyle.

Why they chose this property

This area called Clearwater Cottages are the very last few streets left on the beach side of the island with cottages, vacation rentals from the 1920 s - 1950 s with that Old Florida feeling, while South Beach all the cottages and older homes were torn down for the new expensive ritzy motels. This loft is a new renovation in a 1948 building, cool, cozy, and affordable .

What makes this property unique

Enjoy a private, cozy, loft for the price of a hotel room. No streets to cross, your at the beach, and can see the Gulf of Mexico with a 45 degree limited view from the window. Open the door and get the Gulf Breeze. You have all the amenities of Clearwater Cottage, at no additional cost, which includes wood party deck, Key West style backyard at the beach, Weber BBQ grill, use of Capt. Al's , beach chairs, beach toy, and boat excursion in summer when available.( GAS SURGCHARGE $300 thanks to the New Green Deal)
