Great time
We had a great time in a wonderful property. Will never be able to return! We left Tuesday and hurricane Helene completely destroyed property on Thursday. Owners are great to deal with. Please consider them in your future travels. They have several listings.

Birthday Getaway to be with my Daughter
Location of property is excellent. Walking distance from all points of interest. The property management company is reputable and easy to work with. I thoroughly enjoyed sitting on back deck each morning as the sun rose with a cup of coffee and book. I think the house works good for one person or a couple or a couple with children. The master bedroom is attached to the bathroom and second bedroom. Could be an awkward setup with regards to privacy. Would definitely return and recommend to others.

Waterfront stress relief
Had a great time in this beautiful waterfront setting. Location and accommodations were just what we needed. Quiet and relaxing atmosphere. Back screen porch on the water was a favorite spot. Highly recommend and property manager was very helpful with any issues.

Comfy Calypso Cottage
Even though the power was out for the first couple of hours due to a bad storm, we found the cottage very comfortable and clean. Cute decor and well equipped kitchen made for a very nice stay. Highly recommend this property.

Management made it Perfect!!
Overall Calypso Cottage was awesome! There were a few small issues but the management team was very responsive and took care of things with urgency! Only wish was for a screened room and better yet, one with a pool in it!!!! We will stay at Calypso again!!

Calypso Cottage is Delightful
It was an absolute pleasure to stay here. Calypso Cottage had everything we needed in a fantastic location with stunning views, hundreds of ocean birds, and pods of dolphin so close you can almost touch them. Be sure to get some delicious Cedar Key clams and oysters to shuck and eat beside the beautiful Gulf waters in the backyard! The staff was extra friendly, the cottage was very comfortable and generously stocked with extra towels, pillows, and other little luxuries. We had everything we needed (and more) for a memorable vacation. We would love to stay here again.

Perfect Cottage
Everything was as advertised, fantastic location, beautiful and clean home. We really enjoyed our first time in Ceda Key and a large part of that positive experience was staying at Calypso Cottage. Working with the property manager was super easy and they were very accommodating and prompt with correspondence.

Beautiful cottage!
My husband and I enjoyed our stay. The location is perfect, right on the water and only a short walk to the shops and restaurants on the island. The cottage is beautifully decorated in a beachy farmhouse style. The only negatives were that there were no facial tissues or papertowels/napkins to be found, we should have brought our own. Also the bathroom doesn't have a vent, window or even a candle or air freshener. Still we enjoyed our stay. Very cute vacation place.
