About this property

KEYLIME COTTAGE Heated Pools, steps from the beach perfect location

Thank you, guests! We hope you and your family are ready for a VACATION!

The sun is shining on beautiful Clearwater Beach.

Our cottages are cleaned to the highest standards for your family's health. We have always provided extremely clean cottages with our trained staff.

We have been providing cottages on Clearwater Beach for 20 years. We know what is important to you and we appreciate the opportunity to enhance your vacation stay. Thank you for supporting this small business on Clearwater Beach.

We have additional fully equipped 2/1 Clearwater Beach cottages at this awesome location, same great amenities.

All cottages are ground floor and have individual entrances (no elevators to share).

All cottages have full kitchens and are self-catering.

Our back garden oasis contains two pools and a 170-foot patio with tables and chairs for each cottage. Plenty of room for sunning and enjoying the outdoors.

The Key Lime Cottage, 2 bedroom, 1 bath vacation rental is part of a 7 cottage resort located on the quiet Cyprus Avenue behind the Chapel By The Sea Church.

These beautiful homes are landscaped together in a tropical garden, with palm trees and room for 2 heated pools, all very peaceful and private. We are a 2-minute walk to the beach. Unlike most residential homes we are very close to the shops, and restaurants, such as Frenchy's and the Palm Pavilion, listen to live music while watching the sunset, you will not have to worry about driving or parking your car, just leave it in our parking lot. Pier 60 is also very close and famous for its Key West style sunset festival, which takes place every evening, a great place for the kids.
We also have two-bedroom, two-bathroom, and one-bedroom, one-bathroom vacation homes available.

Check out our photos, it is all very clean and nice, with new tropical decor.

There are six other units for larger parties available for rent as well.

Our stay at Keylime Cottage was absolutely wonderful! The home was spotless, bright, and incredibly welcoming from the moment we walked in. Everything felt fresh and well cared for, and the air conditioning kept the rooms perfectly cool and comfortable. The location could not have been better—just a short walk to the beach, which made it easy to enjoy the ocean every day. The heated pools were a fantastic bonus, and it truly felt like the perfect getaway spot. Highly recommend this property for a relaxing, stress-free vacation!

Hello Christina, thank you for your review, so glad you enjoyed your stay. Yes, we heat the pools and have a very private back garden/pool/patio area for enjoyment. It is perfect for the days you can't swim in the Gulf, using the grill and eating outside, having your morning coffee outside and of course, enjoying your favorite sunset beverage. Hope you stay with us again, all the best, Teresa and Max Radford

Family get away

Obviously this isn’t a Hilton but for the price you pay it’s wonderful! The location is great, it’s a cute little house and comfy beds. My only complaint was the outdoor area and tracking the dirt/mulch into the house. I tried to rinse it off but water hose wouldn’t work.. it was a great place to stay for a couple of days!

Great stay for young family

We stayed at Key Lime - my husband myself and our 3 and 1 year old. It was the perfect size. Clean kitchen and bathroom. Great size bedrooms and storage. They had a highchair and a play crib for our youngest. The pool area was beautiful and they had lots of sand toys my toddler loved playing with. I had one problem with the internet and texted the host and within 30 min it was fixed! 2 min walk to the beach and restaurants and pharmacy. Great getaway with are family. Thanks!!

Great Location with Almost Private Pool

Cute little bungalow in great location. Easy walk to beach and restaurants. Pretty pool area that we had all our own for 4 days. Plenty of towels and linens. Small kitchen, but had plenty of supplies. Who wants to cook big meals on vacation anyway? Beds a bit hard for our taste, but we know everyone is different. Would suggest small tv's in the bedrooms. Teresa was extremely hands on and greeted us with a map and lots of suggestions and info about the area. Overall, a great little place at a reasonable price. Would definitely recommend to friends visiting the area.

Cozy space with all the comforts of home!

We had a very enjoyable vacation at the key lime cottage. The pool was literally 10 steps outside our door. The cottage was very clean and kitchen was well equipped. We enjoyed having breakfast there instead of eating out everyday. Teresa was very informative about the area, she provides pool towels and beach chairs if desired. The beach was a short 2 block walk to sunsets. Several restaurants within a 2-5 block walk or a quick drive.Several of the other people staying in other cottages were very friendly and were return guests. We look forward to a stay again sometime in the future.

Overview of Property and Stay

The location of the property to the beach and to town is great. But to be honest the property needs some major in=mprovements. The decor is getting very worn, the air conditioners are very noisy and the TV's need to upgraded to have more channels for family members. The pool area is nice and secluded but after it rains the flower beds spill over into walk ways and get into the pools. The common areas need to be blown off daily and the pools cleaned daily. There also needs to be more shade areas round the pool to sit. The appliances are substandard by todays standards. Lastly the whole area outside should be non smoking.
