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.

Very Enjoyable Stay.
The cottage was just perfect for my family of four, two adults and two teens. Loved being so close to the water. My teens loved being able to use the paddle boards and kayaks that were at the sister resort which is practically next door. My husband and I loved sitting at the fire pit in the evening which was at the sister resort as well. We had a lot of fun meeting other families who were staying there as well. Great restaurants up and down the island. Plan to get groceries before checking in as you would have to travel back over the bridge to the mainland for their nearest grocery store. I would definitely love to stay here again. Very peaceful and relaxing.

Indian shores stay
This is a great location and steps away from the beach! Management company screwed up our dates of stay and then asked us to check out a day earlier than our scheduled departure and offered to provide a credit for one night of hotel Stay. We had an okay experience overall. The cleaner person who came (a day sooner than our scheduled departure) was super rude, super abrasive and didn’t come prepared wearing a mask and was passive aggressive when we requested her to wear one. Despite requesting 90 mins from the management company to pack and depart (at their request since they got our dates wrong in their system) the cleaning person just barged in and decided to clean even while we were packing. Overall, would love to visit the area again but might give a different property a try. The cottage itself is comfy and cozy but a little smaller than the pictures online.

The stay was great... Great location and access to the beach with restaurants in walking distances. Only issues I’d say is trying to get the code to check in was a hassle other than that the stay was amazing and the house was clean and perfect for weekend get away

Beautiful Beach
First of all we had an great stay at Key Lime Cottage and the beach was beautiful for our girls weekend away with our teenage daughters. The pictures were a little misleading as the fire pit and kayaks/paddle boards were next door outside of the neighboring cottage. We weren’t sure if we could use them as there was no inclination and there was a large party staying there. While there are chairs down at the beach they go quickly and there are a few that were broken. The cottage itself was clean and comfortable, but the door was very hard to open and we never received any communication about the check in process. The messages that I sent via the VRBO app went unanswered and I had to reach out via email and we finally received the door code just a few hours before arriving. The checkout process was easy but not detailed well. The beach itself made up for any hassle we felt over arriving though. The Aloha To Go across the street was tasty and must go!
