We stayed here to celebrate my daughter's 1st birthday and everyone had an amazing time! It was perfect! There was plenty of room for everyone. They offer lots of towels, beach chairs, and the best part is that the beach is just within walking distance, which was great with a 1yr old! The remodeled kitchen was great and well supplied with all of the basic necessities. The pizza place right next door was awesome and we had a great breakfast at Changs Bistro, which was just two blocks away. It was the perfect weekend getaway (and we live in Tampa!). When you walk inside, you automatically feel relaxed and are in beach mode! We're expecting our second child and are already thinking about celebrating there for her/his 1st birthday! Thanks for a great experience and all of the memories Capt. Al!!!!Recommended for: Tourists without a car, families with young children, girls getaway.
Owner response: Dear Karen: We are glad your family had a great beach vacation. Thank you for your kind words. Hope we see you soon. Capt. Al

We stayed a month in the Lemon Cottage (one bedroom) with our cat Max. We had a wonderful time. The cottage is old but well maintained. The bed was extremely comfortable and we had all the amenities as advertised. Anything we requested was immediately provided. We walked every morning on the beach. We had of choice of going north for 6 km into wild and almost deserted Caladesi Island Park or south towards Pier 60 to the more populated areas of Clear Water Beach. We had lots of delightful restaurants to choose from in the area (we did not have a car and walked almost everywhere or took the bus). When not walking on the beach (about 100 metres away) we used the beautiful backyard which had lots of chairs, umbrellas, trees and a Tiki Hut. We also liked the local bar across the street that the locals use called the Shipwreck (can be noisy on the weekends though it did not disturb us). All and all a wonderful place to stay and we would go back.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, pet owners, romantic getaway.
Owner response: Dear Richard and Mary: Thank you for your kind words. We are so glad you got to walk the north end of Clearwater Beach as it is so beautiful. Thanks again for spending you month long vacation at the Beach Cottages. Perhaps we will see you again next year. Capt Al , Rodney and Gayle

This was the worst place I have ever stayed in. Location from beach was the only positive aspect here. One of the rooms stank so bad nobody could sleep in it & the bed in this room was wet!! Yuck! There was two families staying and we were all bitten by something while staying here. The ceiling fans are an accident waiting to happen. all in all this place needs a good fumegating!Owner response: Dear International Traveler: The prior guests child had a accident on the bed and left the doors open and mosquitos came in. I discovered this the next day. The room was not ready as the next Guest was to arrive the next day. You were sent over by another hotel that was full late saturday night, and we found cleaning person who did a quick cleaning. Your bill as adjusted down the next day for your inconvenience as it was not necessary to write a bad review. Our policies are on our sites that if something is not right to call the manager and housekeeping will come over. Beautiful country, Scotland, as fine spirits as well. Capt Al

We stayed at the hide away cottage. The location is great. It needs a good cleaning. If it was cleaner it would of been perfect. Needs to be spring cleaned BADLYOwner response: Dear Besty and Friends: Thank you for staying at the Hideaway Cottage with great location. It is now spring, and time for a good spring cleaning. After spring break, there is a lot of extra cleaning to do, so the housekeepers are getting very busy this month. Hope when you return it is perfect. Capt. Al

This was, by far, the best beach getaway we’ve booked in years and want to thank you for your wonderful hospitality. The Island House was eclectic, charming, beachy and fun. Our only regret from this vacation was that it was too short. We’re hoping to make this our home away from home on Clearwater Beach and spend more time next year. Thank you again for having us. Ruth & PhilippeRecommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.

We enjoyed a family reunion at the Tommy Bahama Guest House. Each of the teens had their own bedroom with LCD TV and Stereo. They enjoyed seperate airconditioners and ceiling fans and a back entrance so we had our privacy in the great master bedroom. This unique room had curtains that opened to the front and middle living room so the room felt especially large. The swivel mounted large LCD TV was a nice touch as well as remotes for the aircondition, ceiling fans and TV. This was a designed decorated house with a Titanic Ship feel, even with the captains bell. All the extras were in it as it was the hotels private weekend beach retreat at one time. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch watching the activies and people go by on Mandalay ave in the morning and the rear deck at night with drink in hand watching the sun set. We had a great beach vacation and thoroughly enjoyed this unique old Florida beach house. We would recommend it for family reunions, romantic weekend retreat, and folks who just love the beach.

What an unexpected delight. After staying in so many beach condos, this was a delighfully different experience. I felt like Humphrey Bogart in Cassablanca. I slept in the west porch bedroom with door open allowing Gulf breezes through the house all night. The crashing of waves and wind made me feel like being in real Florida. The Decor brought me back in time and felt like I really was at an Island. Nice touches like ceiling fans in all room, large plasm TV, Air conditioner units in all bedrooms. Great location. Was able to walk everywhere. Will return soon, I hope. KDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 18/18

About the owner: Hello Friends and thank you for visiting my profile. Originally from New Jersey and my first mate from San Francisco, I spent my youth at the Jersey shore. I have traveled around the world and Carribean Islands many times and have now come to appreciate the natural beauty of Clearwater Beach, the laid back lifestyle that I enjoy with my congenial neighbors. When you come to visit we hope you enjoy this little island as much as we do. Capt. Al
Why the Owner Chose Other Clearwater Beach Properties:
Most Old Florida Beach Cottages were torn down in the Condo craze 10 years ago. Preservation of these Classic Beach Cottages helps keep Clearwater Beach have that Old Florida feel. There are just few cottages left in the north end of the beach and this is one of them. Well decorated with Tommy Bahama Furniture this cottage has a unique and fun feel to it with the low ceilings and funky rooms. Most Guests love this cottage as a great alternative to condos and motels.
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage:
This is the third house from the beach with no streets to cross. Just walk out the back door and you see the beach. Walk past two other homes and you are on the sand. Also has a small view of the beach. Nice neighborhood with other cottages and Angelo's Pizza. Pleasant area to talk a long walk and to the Residential Area.
