About the host

Hosted by Ana Fernandes

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Ana! I love Florida's Gulf Coast and everything Madeira Beach has to offer. My goal is to provide guests with a comfortable, relaxing place where they can enjoy the beach, explore local restaurants, watch dolphins, and experience the laid-back coastal lifestyle.

As a host, I take pride in keeping the cottage clean, well-maintained, and stocked with the essentials for a great stay. Whether you're visiting for a weekend getaway, a beach vacation, or a longer escape from colder weather, I'm always happy to share local recommendations and help make your trip memorable.

I look forward to hosting you at Madeira Beach!

Why they chose this property

I chose this neighborhood because it offers the perfect combination of relaxation, convenience, and the authentic Florida beach lifestyle. One of my favorite things is that guests can leave the car behind and enjoy a short walk to Madeira Beach, local restaurants, waterfront bars, and the attractions at John's Pass.

The area has a laid-back coastal atmosphere that's perfect for morning beach walks, dolphin sightings, fishing trips, and watching beautiful Gulf sunsets. Despite being close to everything, the neighborhood still feels peaceful and welcoming, making it easy to relax and unwind after a day at the beach.

What I enjoy most is the mix of natural beauty, friendly people, and the small-town beach charm that keeps visitors coming back year after year.

What makes this property unique

What makes our property unique is the combination of privacy, outdoor space, and location. Unlike many beach-area rentals that are located in large condo buildings, this is a private cottage with a spacious fenced backyard where guests can relax, dine outdoors, and enjoy Florida's beautiful weather.

The beach is just a short 5-minute walk away, making it easy to enjoy the Gulf without worrying about parking. Guests also love being close to John's Pass, local restaurants, shops, fishing charters, and dolphin cruises while still having a peaceful place to return to at the end of the day.

Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee in the tropical backyard, spending the day at the beach, or watching the sunset after exploring Madeira Beach, the cottage offers a comfortable and relaxing coastal retreat that many guests return to year after year.
