Girls trip made it out of group chat!

Our girls trip had a fabulous time on Anna Maria island. We stayed in the captian quarters, which was clean, comfortable and great location in Holmes Beach. The pool is a salt water pool and very refreshing for afternoon swims. We rented beach bikes, and were able to bike to most places on the island from our house. I highly recommend this place for your stay on the Island.

Lots of laughs

This property has recently been remodeled because the listing was different than what we arrived to! Everything was perfect! The courtyard was perfect for morning coffee! A short walk to the beautiful beach using the chairs well stocked from the VRBO. The heated pool was amazing to relax in after the beach. Beds were comfortable too!

Beach Cottage Feels

Perfect for a week get-a-way! We had 4 adults and 2 small Bostons. Captain’s Quarters has its own little yard for the pups- just be aware it’s right along the walking path so ours were easily ‘distracted’ with all the foot traffic. Floor plan is wide open for hanging out together comfortably playing music, cards, board games, etc. Everything you need for cooking meals (I brought my own chef knife and should’ve brought a cutting board). Lots of great restaurants and bars within walking distance too. Boat ramp right up the road. Short walk to the beach with an outdoor shower and pool when you get back. And comfy beds to end the day! Couldn’t rate communication because we had zero problems, but number is on counter and regular emails were sent to me

Family trip

Great place to stay!! This is a great location to beach access. House is clean and comfortable. Would recommend and would stay again! The shared space was still private and we couldn’t hear neighbors at all from our space. Property management company was super responsive to any question and we had the best time!

Exactly as Advertised

We had a girls trip and chose this property due to 3 large bedrooms and a private pool. The walk to the beach was super easy and I went there every morning for a sunrise stroll. We loved the kitchy decor and felt right at home there. We didnt require anything extra or encounter any problems so I cant make a fair assessment of the rental office.

Wonderful stay at Spinnakers Cottages

Our family of five adults had an amazing stay in this lovely cottage! The decor made it so homey and cozy. Everything was very clean, the kitchen well stocked, and communication was also very easy. We loved the easy walk to the beach! We especially enjoyed the front porch area that this particular cottage. We would definitely return in the future!

Home Away From Home

Had a wonderful time at this cottage in Anna Maria Island. The cottage was exactly as described. The shared pool was rarely in use when we used it and was a nice option when the beach got too hot for us northerners. The location is perfect and within short distance or walk to restaurants and shopping. Would definitely stay here again. So relaxing!

Lovely place but had some issues due to hurricane Debby

The place was as beautiful as shown in the listing. Spacious and comfy and felt like a home away from home. We did have issues our first few days there. Because of hurricane Debby the house flooded a little and we were out of power for 18 hours. Definitely no fun and put a damper on our vacation .

Just like the pictures!!!

The Captains Quarters was so perfect and roomy. Entire house was very clean and stocked. Super close to the beach. Beds were comfortable. Pool was great. Just wish the hot tub worked (no heat or bubbles). You will want to bring some extra toilet paper if staying a week.

Close walk to beach

Great property for what we needed. Very close to beach, heated, shared pool and plenty of beds. Pool could have been crowded if all properties were occupied but only seemed to have 1 other family at a time with us in December. Pool nicely shaded for when it is hot with shared grill and outdoor table. Also had your own private yard area in front of house.

Loved the home like interior! Property was close to the beach and many restaurants and shopping. Would have like to have been told there were four units using the small pool. Beach wagon was listed as amenity and there was not one.

Great vacation!

It was a awesome vacation. The property was very nice. Great location. There one thing that was misleading. The pool was not heated and the spa did not work. It would been nice to know that. You should change that in the listing. This amenity was one of the many reasons we choose the property. Overall it was nice.

Most excellent experience!

Beautiful home. Bigger than expected. Close to everything that is food, bars, shops. Great home for groups because of the amount of space. Anything we needed was there as far as amenities got. Very well stocked kitchen. Nice outside areas in front and back of home as well for relaxing and swimming. Thanks for sharing your place with us.

Wish We Were Still There

We immediately felt welcome in the Captain's Quarters Cottage. The new sea shell lined entryway let us know we were finally at the beach! The cottage was immaculate and comfortable. The open kitchen/dining/living area was bright and roomy. The kitchen was well equipped with what we needed to prepare meals. The BBQ grill was also convenient.The kids enjoyed the piano and all the board games.There were some great books on the shelves too.The cottage had plenty of beach towels and beach chairs as well as an umbrella. We had perfect weather during our stay and spend allot of time at the beach.The sandy pathway to the beach is about a minute's walk from the cottage. We cannot wait to return to the Captain's Quarters.
