Awesome location

Best 2BR 2BA location we have stayed. Kitchen is stocked with updated pots and pans and dishes. We have stayed at some places where the cookware was on their last leg. Not here. Beds were comfortable and everything was clean. Pool is not large but big enough. Only thing I wish they could add would be some sort of sail screen/tent over the pool area to block some of the sun. Pool got really warm on some days. Free trolley stops off right by the house. Look forward to next year.

Bluefin Cottage

We had a wonderful stay at Bluefin! It was very clean and comfortable, and so nice to not have to cross a street to go to the beach. The property is very well maintained.

Bluefin Cottage Review

Loved the Bluefin Cottage! It was very thoughtfully laid out and stocked with supplies that made our anniversary trip so much easier!!! The quality of the finishes in the home set it apart from many others. Hope to stay again soon!

Perfect!

The house was beautiful and had everything we needed! The pool was small but perfect for what we needed. Absolutely LOVED that we had a private patio and pool and literally 2 houses from a gorgeous beach! Highly recommend and can't wait to return!

A wonderful experience !

We were happy enough to be one of the first renters of this charming house with beach feeling. The location is very close to the beach, just past two houses and no crossing of a main street is required, there is anyway only very little traffic on that part of Gulf Drive. I enjoyed the nice morning runs, up on Gulf Drive to the Pier and then around the tip of the Island back along the beach, accompagnied by the pelicans. We liked the remoteness of the location although the next big Walmart in Bradenton is just 15 mins away by car. Ben was present just a few minutes after our arrival and he was very helpful with everything. We liked the App for the iPhone from Lizzie Lu helping us to find good restaurants etc. The house is very well and modern equiped with a full kitchen, washing machine/tumbler, wifi, TV, etc. Even board games are available should the weather be not so nice. We did not miss anything at all as the owners obviously seem to be experienced with the guests wishes. The small, heated pool was just right for our family with two little kids. We were overwhelmed by the beach equipment provided including umbrella, beach chairs, towels and even a gorilla cart to carry everything to the beach. We are looking forward to come back.
