Great little property and perfect for 2 people! We really appreciated the beach towels, chairs, tote and cooler that were available to use, which we did every day! The location was great, just over the bridge from AMI and on a quiet street. We were in walking distance to some AMAZING little restaurants just across the street on the fishing pier.
This was truly the perfect spot for exploring Cortez and Anna Maria Island. Beautiful beaches and lots of options for dining within walking distance. The accommodations were quiet, cozy, and clean. I canât wait to return for another visit.
Everything was amazing! The whole process was smooth! They were excellent hosts! This property was immaculately clean & it was in the perfect location to all of the beautiful sites⊠We are very happy & gratefulâŠ
Very nice and clean place. Perfect for a couple. Nice outside private sitting area. Close to bridge and island. Had fun walking biking over bridge Driving easy too
Very well stocked, remodled like NEW, studio apartment with all amenities. Quiet neighborhood on dead end street with convenient parking. Bed was comfortable and AC worked great. Location was close to restaurants, AMI/Longboat Key and Bradenton. Would definitely stay here again!!
Loved this little hidden Gem...Stayed 5 nights and loves it. So convent to everything never took our car out of the drive. The Trolley is just over the bridge, great food and drinks up and down the island. Will be back for sure.. Oh yes and super clean!
We wanted a couple nights in Crotez prior to a longer stay on the island. We wanted to be able to walk to restaurants in Cortez and have the ability to go over to Bridge Street and the beach. This was perfect! We have already talked about coming back for a longer stay. The beverages and popcorn was a fun little treat. The unit had everything you would need for a stay and was so clean and quiet. We enjoyed sitting outside and having coffee in the morning. Perfect quiet little place for a couple. We will be back!
What a great get away exactly what my husband and I were looking for. 10/10 wonderful host. Thank u
The room was cozy quiet and perfect setting for jet skiing or a day on the water the beach is right across the bridge awesome awesome would definitely definitely go there again.
This is the place to stay for a couple..very clean, quick drive to the beach, they have everything you need for a day at the beach..we absolutely loved it and it will definitely be the place we come back to!
Your host Hazel is a third generation Cortezian, who along with her husband Steve, raised two sons in this home. Her family is one of the families who founded the fishing village of Cortez in the late 1800s.
Quiet location close to beaches and other amenities. No need for a car while vacationing as there are many restaurants, shopping, and activities within walking distance. There is also free transportation in the form of the Island trolley as well as the monkey bus.
