Beautiful cottage and pool. Very bright, airy and clean. Location was awesome- a short block to the beach and restaurants and shopping. Beds were very comfortable and we loved the clean and soft linens. The pool though was the best part! We had a bit of a heat wave so spent most of our time in it. Kids preferred it over the beach! We will certainly return to this house and highly recommend to others.Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, people with disabilities, age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

We had a wonderful time at what we started calling "the villa". Secluded and private, yet just one block from the beach, island shopping, and restaurants. Having a private pool and BBQ was great and the villa was very comfortable and updated. If you are looking for privacy and comfort, it doesn't get much better than this. And the fresh fish......I want to go back right now. Brad and TerryRecommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, people with disabilities, tourists without a car, age 55+, romantic getaway.

The cottage and pool were just fabulous! Lauren did everything to make our stay extra special. The property has been totally remodeled and you can tell it is a place the owner treats as her own. My mom is 90 and had a fabulous time in the pool! The weather was terrific. We only cooked breakfast and lunch at the condo and enjoyed our dinners out at the wonderful restaurants on the island. Lauren's kitchen had everything you needed-we especially enjoyed the plastic wine glasses we could use at the pool. We spent a week in Hilton Head in early September in a beautiful 7 bedroom oceanfront house-it did not have near the kitchen supplies and not half the charm of this cottage. This cottage is A+!!!!Recommended for: People with disabilities, age 55+, girls getaway.

Another huge thank you to the owner, Lauren, for a perfect vacation! The twelve of us stayed at Sunrise and Sunset Cottages for a family beach getaway and could not have been more pleased. From beginning to end, it was a fabulous vacation. The two properties are conveniently just steps apart, making them perfect for a large family or group to 'take over', but still completely separate so we could all be on our own schedules. Sunrise is just as beautiful as its big sister cottage, Sunset (a 3/3 which also has a fabulously landscaped pool area). The cable package and TVs in every room were great for the kids and for the day we had rain. The well-equipped kitchen and awesome Weber gas grill make cooking easy and fun. It's rare to feel so at home when you're on vacation. The intense pride Lauren takes in these properties is obvious...from the exceptionally clean linens and spotless kitchen and bathrooms to the beyond-words-gorgeous, beautifully manicured lagoon pools. Look at the photos and multiply that beauty by ten and you'll get a feel for the Sunrise and Sunset experience. Perfection across the board.Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, people with disabilities, tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

I rented the cottage for a reunion weekend with some old friends and it was the perfect place and really made the trip. The interior was clean, beautifully done and welcoming. The pool was the perfect spot for every one to chill out after the beach or a day in the sun and on the boat. We really enjoyed it and can't speak highly enough. We'll be back in the future for sure.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

We can't express how great my trip was to Sunrise Cottage this summer in early August 2012! From the moment my husband and I stepped on the property and home we were in love with the atmosphere, calmness, and relaxation we both experienced during our stay. I had been to the island before but was so impressed with Sunrise cottage! We got to meet the owner and was so happy with how helpful she was in suggesting places to eat and things to do while we stayed at the cottage! We actually got married on the island and got to spend a wonderful time at the cottage and on the island! The weather was beautiful and the private pool was awesome and warm! Can't say enough of how great this place was! We want to go back already and probably will soon!Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, people with disabilities, tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

We rented the Sunrise Cottage for a family vacation that turned into a girls getaway, three generations. We had a lovely time, the location of the cottage is wonderful and convenient to everything. From the moment we arrived we felt relaxed and at home, Lauren went above and beyond to make our stay fantastic. The home is exceptionally clean and beautifully decorated, we even loved the plates and coffee mugs. From the linens to the gorgeous ceiling fans this home is a place that anyone would fall in love with and enjoy staying for any length of time. We plan on coming back again and I will definitely be telling all of my friends and family about the Sunrise Cottage!! Our vacation photos have been a big hit :-)Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2009
About the owner: At Sunrise Cottage, we're serious about your relaxation. We keep things simple so you can dream about your beach vacation, not complicated paperwork. You'll receive complete information about Sunrise so you'll know what to expect when you arrive. We answer all questions promptly and treat you the way we would want to be treated. We extend a special welcome to our wonderful overseas guests - we promise to do everything we can to make you happy when you come so far to visit our beautiful island. Our goal is for all our guests is to remember Sunrise Cottage as their home away from home on Anna Maria Island.
Why the Owner Chose Anna Maria:
We purchased Sunrise Cottage because of the feeling you get driving across the island/mainland bridge. It’s the beginning of the rainbow. Sunrise cottage is the pot of gold awaiting you.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
Staying in a cottage provides privacy while offering guests an opportunity to be part of a small community of friendly people who truly value their quality of life on the island. From the cottage guests can walk across the street to the beach to catch a spectacular sunset or walk one block in the other direction to peruse the many shops or enjoy the restaurants. Two guests once left in the morning to walk to breakfast and didn’t return until late afternoon because they strolled from shop to shop, enjoying wares and conversation with shop owners. It's nice to attain at least a temporary respite from fast food joints, high rises, and traffic - at Sunrise Cottage it doesn't take long to convert to 'island time'.
