Beachfront Heaven

This beautiful cottage was so special. From the adorable decor to the layout and thoughtful uses of space, it exceeded our expectations. We thought the beach would be the draw but this home is so pretty, we didn’t want to leave.

Everything was perfect about this rental. The location to everything including restaurants and obviously the beach is amazing.

Our stay at the Salty Sister was amazing. Sitting on the screened in front porch watching the waves and the people was a highlight every morning. Being able to head over to swim or layout on the beach and not have to pack up but rather just head back to the house easily was perfection. And when we were tired of the waves, coming back and swimming in the pool allowed for simple relaxation. The house fit our family perfectly and we would definitely stay again. The hosts even had cupcakes and a congratulatory treat, card, and balloon on the table for our daughter because this trip was a celebratory trip for her graduation. The communication was steady and helpful, and getting in and checking out was super easy!If you like wave runners, we had a blast renting those and getting a few moments with a pod of dolphins hanging out with us! We thought that was the best, but then we also took a boat tour and the dolphins greeting us again with a fun time jumping and following the wake of our boat, even a baby one! Overall, this was such a wonderful trip and we couldn't have asked for more! Many thanks!

We’re absolutely delighted to hear that Salty Sister was the perfect setting for your family getaway and your daughter’s graduation celebration. It was truly our pleasure to help make such a special occasion a little more memorable with a few celebratory touches. We love to hear about the wave runner rides alongside dolphins and a boat tour complete with another dolphin greeting, even a baby one! Those are the moments that make a vacation unforgettable. We’re also so happy to hear that communication, check-in, and check-out were seamless and that the home was a perfect fit for your family. Thank you again for choosing to celebrate with us and for taking the time to share your experience.

Like new, with taste

Our first tome at Anna Maria, this cottage was perfect in so many ways: the kids 8 and 6 lived the pool, didn’t want to get out to walk across the street to the beach. But we insisted; then they didn’t want to stop looking for shells and swimming. Pretty good food was one block walk down the beach. The cottage has clearly been renovated very recently, and it would seem with no expense spared. Really very tastefully done. Each bedroom has a modern bath ensuite. And common areas were comfortable with a distinct “beach cottage” feel.

Location, location, location

We enjoyed this perfectly appointed seaside cottage bungalow in every way! The integrity of this home's remodel to the feel of "ol' Florida" casualness and comfort is outstanding. It is so well decorated, adorable and classy! The views from the entire front home look straight out to the ocean beach and are remarkable! We rode the bikes in the mornings or shopped in the near-by boutiques (which were walkable). Then we headed straight out to the beach to bask in the beautiful warm sun on provided beach chairs and to gather shells... and boy, were there A LOT of shells! Late afternoons we went back to the cottage to relax in the saltwater pool. Then we walked to dinner or drove to a nearby restaurant. Every day was wonderful! Thank you, Salty Sister, for a very memorable lifetime-BFF's girlfriend's fall beach trip!!
