The cottage, patio and dock on the water were great. Everything on the property was clean and well maintained. The cottage is well stocked with kitchen supplies, linens, towels and miscellaneous supplies. We had one minor issue arise with the pool and the property manager responded promptly and addressed the matter. The host was responsive and hospitable in all communications.

Lovely Coastal decorated house on a canal near open water. This home had everything we needed for startup. Has a spa/pool with seats for 8 or so. Beds were comfortable with soft sheets… Kitchen was easy to cook in with cookware and serving ware…We thoroughly enjoyed the backyard with tropical plantings and the perfect dock to fish from. In fact, we were outside on that deck, many nights fishing.There are kayaks there to use as you will, and they are in perfect order.The landscaping in the front and back is most enjoyable with lights that come on at night that add a special ambience to the area.Anything we need help with was just a call away.We would definitely stay here again. The owner and his manager treated us beautifully.Just, a wonderful experience, using their home and being in the area.

Far exceeding our expectations, this beautiful little cottage was the backdrop of a wonderful week spent in Matlacha, FL. This was our first time back to the island since Hurricaine Ian’s destruction of much of the island. The hosts have done an amazing job reimagining the spaces both inside and out to maximize every minute of your time at this adorable beach cottage. We prepared fresh seafood meals in the well-stocked kitchen, spent lazy afternoons on the patio or in the pool, launched kayaks from the dock, took spectacular sunset pictures, and slept well in the perfectly appointed bedrooms. The hosts have truly thought of everything you might need for the stay, making this an stress-free and wonderful stay. There is a sign that hangs by the front door that says, “Today, I will be happier than a seagull with a French fry.” Well, that was everyday for us! . Thanks to Rich,, Vinny, and others who make this place so special. We look forward to our return!

Every detail was attended to. The cottage was so new and clean with all the conveniences and no clutter. Poor Matlacha got hit hard by the hurricane BUT it felt great to support the local businesses as they recover and to come home to our cottage and spa/pool on the water. Just LOVED it!
