Great location. LOVED the yard. The toys were super fun. It was great to have chairs and a wagon to bring to the beach. Great Parking. The ice maker stopped working on the first day, and the refrigerator on the last. I called management the day we left. I was too busy having fun to call. My suggestion would be to replace the pots, pans, bowls, and kitchen stuff if you stay for a week.

The house was amazing and fit our family very well. There are a few maintenance items that need to be tended to. One of the bedroom doors didn’t latch when closed. AC can only be set to 68 which gets hot in the front bedroom. TV remotes didn’t work for every room. Beside these minor issues everything was a great and location was perfect.

Great location and property

Property was exactly as described and very nice, plenty of room for our party of 7! The pool was a plus after all day on the beach, speaking of the beach, access was just a short walk away, as described. I highly recommend Starfish Cottage!

Wonderful

This property is in a great location as well as a very nice clean comfortable home. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need except for a crockpot! Towels and beach gear were all in great condition. The back and side yard are a very nice place to hang out and the pool is amazing! We would stay here again. The property managers are top notch and very easy to communicate with.

Stay at Starfish Cottage

The house was very clean and spacious. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. We really enjoyed the heated pool. The water temperature stayed comfortable all week despite the cooler weather in January. The proximity to the beach is great.

Ideal location - you can truly go from pool to beach and back again! Property is generally well maintained. Pool ideal for our 5yo. Nice play area on the side with fake grass. Quiet inside despite being on the corner. Comfy beds!

Everything and more!

We loved our week at Starfish Cottage! The home had everything we could have needed. Each room had a smart TV, king bed, and ceiling fan. The A/C worked great. Beach access is just a few minutes away. Loved having a private pool, ping pong, and cornhole. The Anna Maria Life team is very responsive!

Excellent location

Stayed here with my husband and kids (teens). The pool is wonderful and you are only a block from the beach. The house had plenty of room. The AC wasn't working well in part of the house and the dishwasher, blender and a tv were broken, a few other things as well but the property manager was super responsive and helped replace/repair. I would rent it again for sure.

Perfect, quiet location

The house was just as described on the website. It was so nice to have an equal number of bedrooms & bathrooms so that everyone had their own space. The only negatives were 1. the kitchen lacked enough bowls and had no storage containers/bowls with lids for storing food/leftovers 2. the website stated the house had beach chairs & a beach wagon however there were only 4 chairs that were not broken and the wagon was rusted & broken so it could not be used.It was so nice to be just a short walk across the street to the beach access. The backyard was lovely & private. We would definitely stay again!
