Very nice property located within a five minute walk to the Gulf. House was very clean and the pool area was great. My only recommendation would be to have enough towels and wash cloths to accomodate 6 people.

Great Experience!
The property is lovely, even prettier than in the pictures. Everything inside and outside was very neat and well maintained. Our family loved the pool! There were plenty of beach chairs, towels, floats and toys provided. I had imagined it being a bit closer to the beach but it really wasn’t a big issue.

Beautiful Coastal Cottage on Holmes Beach
This was our second year staying at the Coastal Cottage. The location is perfect, just a block and a half from the beach. It is located right in the middle of the seven mile island, so getting anywhere is super easy. Very walkable to Ugly Grouper, Freckled Fin, shopping and more.
The house is equipped with an inground pool, pool toys, beach supplies and everything else you need for your stay.
We have already booked our stay for next year.
Managers are very attentive. We had a minor issue with our pool, and it was fixed immediately. Highly recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed this house
I'd definitely recommend this house. I think it's even better than the online pictures. Very clean, comfortable beds, fully stocked kitchen, great updated bathrooms. It's not big but layout makes comfortable for a 3-bedroom size family. It was also very quiet at night for sleeping which is important to me. And close to the beach! Nice selection of beach chairs as well. My only suggestions would be for owners to keep outdoor shower area clean, I cleaned out some natural debris when we arrived and used everyday. Also, the dryer took several cycles to dry a normal load, I'm sure this could be corrected with some maintenance. Owners were very quick to respond to my questions and all went smoothly.

We loved the Coastal Cottage!
We loved our week at the Coastal Cottage! We spent hours in the heated pool. It was amazing and we loved the outdoor patio. It is a duplex so there is a pool on the other side of the fence and the other guests did play music, it didn’t disturb us at all, just a heads up in case it would bother someone else. Super quick walk to the beautiful Holmes beach. The house was clean, beautifully decorated and we loved the large slider going out to the pool. We had a slight mishap with getting the code for check in but it was resolved in time for us when we got to the front door, everything worked out fine. We love our trips to AMI and we loved the Coastal Cottage!

Cute house with great location
The house was the perfect size for our family of 4. The kitchen and master bedrooms were especially large for a house of this size. The pool area was well appointed and private. The gorgeous beach just a short walk and several restaurants and shops were walkable - approx 1/2 mile through the neighborhood which has sidewalks.
Plenty of beach chairs and towels provided.
Very safe/residential area which we loved.

Super Vacation Spot
Beautiful property perfectly maintained and stocked. Couldn't have asked for better. Our misunderstanding was the proximity to the imaged Beach bar which was not down the block but some distance away. (Our error). In addition we did not realize it was a duplex property from the listing alone. Perhaps we missed that in the fine print. That aside the property is fully segregated and fenced from the other unit and we never saw or heard the neighbors at any point during our week-long stay.
The pool at the house is incredible as is all the amenities provided from the grill, patio set, fire pit, full beach cart chairs and umbrellas. There is nothing more you could ask for in a rental and the place was immaculate. We highly recommend the property and would love to stay there again in the future.
