Super cute for a mother/daughter long weekend! Bonus was beach towels, beach chairs and a wagon to take to the beach which was so close to walk to. Pool was awesome as well being just steps from the door.

Cute little place with everything you need. We couldn't find the door to begin with... it is inside the gate by the trashcans. We only stayed one night on our way to south Florida but it would be a nice weekend stay.

Solo vacay

I loved my stay here! They had everything I needed and was clean inside and out. It was a short walk to the beach, Publix, and a strip of shops/restaurants. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. Felt completely safe staying during my solo vacation!

Great location!

Great location! Quiet area and short walk to the beach. Clean! Great communication. The alarms on the door was a con because the wire kept coming out making it go off! Other than that great stay!

beautiful room on the beach!

My 20-year-old daughter and I spent spring break at Villa 2 - Shrimp and had a wonderful stay! Accommodations were newly-renovated, super clean, close to the beach and an easy walk to Publix and other shops/cafes. We appreciated having our own parking spot right beside our little bungalow; a beach chair; a place to hose off after walking back from the beach; and a lovely shared backyard pool. Other guests using the pool were friendly and respectful. Despite the busy-ness of the island at this time of the year, our little spot was quiet and private - loved that! The alarm system attached to the front door was cumbersome to use, but other than that, we thought everything was great and would return in a heartbeat.

Great property and customer service!

My husband and I stayed at Shrimps for a spring break vacation March 2024. We had a great time and the location could not be beat! 2 min walk to the beach. This is a studio, so compact, but had all that we needed as we spent a majority of our time outside, walking on the beach, going to restaurants and shopping! All that we needed for week stay. I would definitely recommend and look forward to our next vacation adventure!

Small but mighty

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay- the location of the Shrimp Hut was walkable to dining, groceries, and close enough to the beach to go back and forth for potty breaks. Full kitchen and outdoor shared space with pool made up for the small unit, which essentially was like a hotel suite room.

Quiet beach getaway

What a gem tucked away and close to the beach! The small bungalow was perfect for my wife and I -and our small dog! For a small space it works pretty well, the bathroom is a bit tight but manageable. Could use an extra coffee mug and towels -but otherwise perfect!

Mini Getaway

The “shrimp” was a really great place to stay. Pool was great and the walk to the beach was very short. A few downfalls was there no storage space for your suitcase or a rack to atleast place your luggage. The kitchen has no utensils to cook with or pots or pans. The bathroom was too small and everything gets wet in there when showering. Still had a good time. Just can’t stay too long
