The proximity to the beach at this price was incredible. If you’re looking for easy beach access this is definitely the place for you. The unit itself could use some TLC is some areas, but nothing that makes it not a great place to stay.

Great place to stay!

Overall everything was great but the lock on the door did not work so i got the code for the lockbox with 1 key. This did not get resolved on our stay so we had to work around this issue even though we communicated with the staff.

Key Lime Cottage

This was our second time staying at Key Lime cottage. We enjoy being close to the beach and having bars and restaurants just across the street. The cottage could use a little TLC but we knew that when we booked. We would definitely book it again.

Absolutely Perfect

I was born in Clearwater/IRB, I know the area very well though I moved away 25 years ago. Key Lime Cottage was perfectly what I wanted to show my son where I'm from. The photo's and listing are very accurate and to my pleasant surprise there was a little outdoor seating area. Beds are comfortable and it's quiet. I will for sure rent this place again!!

Perfect!

Exactly what we needed. Quiet, clean, great neighborhood, walk to beach, awesome amenities, walking distance to anything you need on the strip, too many tv channels to choose from, great wifi, beach chairs, paddle boards and kayaks. Definitely loved our stay and was great because it's also close driving distance inland since we went to see family. My kids husband and I hope to return soon. Highly recommend this place to others.

The house was extremely Clean!!!

The house was very clean and had all the things we needed for our short stay. Wish we could have stayed longer. The beach was such a short walk and so many Restaurants close by. I do wish the bathroom Was a little larger, with two teenage girls with us it was hard to share with them!! Overall great place to stay and would stay there again!!

Property was Everything and More.

This house was everything and more than me and my family expected. We arrived to a very clean, very well kept house. The size of the house is much bigger than the pictures let on, it had plenty of room for my family of 5. From the little things like dishwasher tabs, to lawn chair we did not need to go to the store for anything but the food we ate. The beach access is amazing, and you a little bit away from the public beach access, so most of the time we felt like we had the whole beach to ourselves, considering we stayed during spring break. Without a doubt we will be back again.
