Great location! Steps from the beach.
We had a wonderful time. Very short walk to the beach. The location can not be beat. Cute cottages. We stayed in one and a friend stayed in another. The kiddos were safely running between. They are very nice old cottages. Cant beat the location. Capt. AL always responded. Thank you! We had a great time.

Perfect beach bungalow
We tend to visit clearwater about 6 times a year and after staying here this time i am so upset i never found it before! The owners and employees were so welcoming and friendly but werent pushy like anywhere else you stay! Also, the amount of items necessary for a day at the beach was an extra bonus i didnt know we needed. Absolutely recommend 100% and will be staying here again!!

Cute and location was excellent
It's just north of the strip but can walk into the action in a matter of minutes. It's a 3 minute walk to the beach. The property has chairs, and beach stuff to borrow. The property itself was very cute and corky! It's tight but it worked well for us. The captain was excellent with communication! Would definitely come back again. Thank you

Classic Beach House - Very Nice Shabby Chic
Clearwater Beach offers mostly soulless high rises, but this 100-year-old cottage has the character of Old Florida (something we like a lot.) This apartment is reasonably spacious and decorated with real style. The cottage is old and every surface has probably 20 layers of paint, but that is part of its old charm. The kitchen was modern and well equipped. The courtyard was a bit less cared for -- some clutter and it would have benefited from a daily leaf-blowing. I guess this complex attracts families with small children, which was nice. It really is almost right on the beach. Overall, we were charmed.

Couldn't stay--double booked
Arrived at night to find property had been double-booked and we had no place to stay. I had texted manager during driving to let him know what time we were arriving. Manager worked with me to find a place to go (with 4 children in our group) during spring break. Extremely fortunate to find someplace that could accommodate our group, but it was more expensive. Communication between computer systems problem?? Manager had responded to a previous email and that day had answered my text, so he knew we were headed his way. Very tense hour or two, wondering were we were going to stay, or having to drive inland.
Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2022
Response from VrboOwner on 25 May 2022
Dear Elaine; We apologized for the double booking and sometimes online calendars do not link but we try our best to make sure things get straightened out. It is spring break and many hotels are overbooked. I spent a considerable amount of time checking with other hotel owners which I know personally, then booked online just like you did , only to find with you following me that the room was not ready after an online booking, and then did find you a suitable property, sorry a bit more but did everything possible to make things right and of course 100 % refund. I also gave you in cash half of the extra cost $200.00 I am sure you would never have found anyone other hotel owner to find you a room and then give you money as an apology for the inconvenience. Sorry you felt it necessary to write a one star review for a very fine property Capt AL

Great property and location, communication not so great.
We had a great time. We got everything we needed and our trip never felt like a hassle. Everything was clean and orderly, extra supplies were not a problem when needed.

Family of 5 visiting Clearwater for a wedding
Our family spent 5 nights at Cap't Al's cottages. The cottage was exactly as described - no frills, just what you need and 100 steps from the beach. We found the cottage after deciding we did not want to stay at Holiday Inn or Sandpearl for a family wedding. Considering Covid - hotels did not seem the safest route. Plus, we have little kids who want to run and play and prefer to not deal with restaurants much. Though, we did like that it was walking distance to Frenchy's Rock A Way and Palm Pavillion. Our only issues were that the floors weren't very clean (we have a crawling baby) when we arrived and many electrical outlets were not working. Neither of those greatly impacted our stay. Cap't Al was very helpful, providing us with a beach umbrella. We bought beach toys and blow ups (and left them there for future guests) but he had many there already. Wasn't an issue to get new sheets. Plenty of towels provided. there were other quests but it was quiet, no late night rowdiness, perfect for a young familly. Great experience overall.

We love this cottage!
My wife and I were celebrating our 1 yr anniversary, and I found this cottage searching Trivago I believe. The price was right and the location, perfect. Capt. Al stayed in touch until we arrived. We arrived and the property was great. Everything was nice and clean, AC was cold (were from Texas so working AC is very important), all appliances worked as advertised, and there were so many amenities to take advantage of. Capt. Al met us on the day we arrived, a perfect gentleman and fun guy, and even took us out on his boat on Labor day, an extra special treat for us. The location is the most amazing part about this property, everything is literally within walking distance, plenty of shops, restaurants and bars to keep you entertained, not to mention Pier 60 just a few blocks away. It also has a nice backyard lounging area with table, hot tub, and it is decorated perfectly. It's a quiet, relaxing, quaint place with a great owner that takes care of you. You will not be disappointed with this property selection. 5 stars.

This is a great cottage for familes that can get along in tight quarters. We stayed in the Gulfside cottage and had 4 adults and a toddler. We were able to make it work, but you have to be okay with little privacy. Beach was beautiful and never too crowded. Main strip of restaurants, bars, and shops are less than a 10 min walk away.
