This is our 3rd year staying in this cottage and we love it! It is always clean, well stocked and perfect for our family's needs. It has been completely renovated since the hurricane and the new kitchen is just lovely. We enjoyed cooking almost all of our meals here and it had everything we needed. I'm sure we will be back next year!!

Girls trip made it out of group chat!

Our girls trip had a fabulous time on Anna Maria island. We stayed in the captian quarters, which was clean, comfortable and great location in Holmes Beach. The pool is a salt water pool and very refreshing for afternoon swims. We rented beach bikes, and were able to bike to most places on the island from our house. I highly recommend this place for your stay on the Island.

Lots of laughs

This property has recently been remodeled because the listing was different than what we arrived to! Everything was perfect! The courtyard was perfect for morning coffee! A short walk to the beautiful beach using the chairs well stocked from the VRBO. The heated pool was amazing to relax in after the beach. Beds were comfortable too!

Family trip

Great place to stay!! This is a great location to beach access. House is clean and comfortable. Would recommend and would stay again! The shared space was still private and we couldn’t hear neighbors at all from our space. Property management company was super responsive to any question and we had the best time!

Wonderful stay at Spinnakers Cottages

Our family of five adults had an amazing stay in this lovely cottage! The decor made it so homey and cozy. Everything was very clean, the kitchen well stocked, and communication was also very easy. We loved the easy walk to the beach! We especially enjoyed the front porch area that this particular cottage. We would definitely return in the future!

The home was lovely, the private pool fantastic, and the accessibility to the public Manatee Beach and the quick access to a private beach through a stoeybook path of sea grapes was ideal!

Home Away From Home

Had a wonderful time at this cottage in Anna Maria Island. The cottage was exactly as described. The shared pool was rarely in use when we used it and was a nice option when the beach got too hot for us northerners. The location is perfect and within short distance or walk to restaurants and shopping. Would definitely stay here again. So relaxing!

We love this cottage!

This was our second year staying in this cottage. We absolutely love it! The decor is so cute and everything is clean and well kept. Last year we had 5 people and this year 6 and it was still perfect. We love this part of the island and the closeness to the beach….just a short walk! I know we will continue to return to this cottage unless our family grows more and we need more space.
