Good Location, Comfy Cottage
The cottage was well located in Holmes Beach, and an easy walk/bus ride to either end of the island. It was spacious with a cozy feel, and the beds were surprisingly comfortable. The only reason I gave it 4-stars was because the A/C was not working and the water heater was unreliable on Day-1. The A/C was fixed in 2 days, but the water heater had to be replaced after several days. To be fair, both FDR and the owner were very responsive.

Wonderful Stay
We had a lovely stay of 9 days. The house was perfect for my aging mother because it easy one story and was easy for her to maneuver around. I wish there was a bar in the shower for her but we managed. We had an issue with air conditioning but it was resolved within hours and it was a Friday evening!! I love that maintenance is on the island and was so friendly and polite. Neighborhood was quiet. We really loved the patio and we used the grill alot! I will definitely be back!!

Beach decor and beautiful property near the beaches and restaurants. No need to fight the travel to and from the island when you’re already there. Will definitely come back.
