About this property

*Magical Pink House*

Our home is a beautiful oceanfront getaway located in an unspoiled Florida fishing village. We are located on the Gulf coast and enjoy both gorgeous sunsets and sunrises year round. We are within walking distance of the historic downtown and famous dock street restaurants and shops. If you are looking for a little relaxation in your next Gulf Coast vacation, you must discover Cedar Key, Florida. Our views of the Gulf are panoramic, our style is low-key, and we want you to kick back, get comfortable and most of all, have a great time!

The Thomas Guesthouse is a 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath home. Our vaulted ceilings and wall to wall windows offer incredible views of Cedar Key's waterfront and nature preserves. If you are a nature lover, you will be mesmerized by the variety of birds and dolphins that feed in front of your private balcony. Throw open the wraparound windows and feel the sea air and breezes gently relax you as you watch a panoramic sunset filled with the most stunning imagery and colors. Enjoy sunrises with your morning coffee and the spectacular colors of the sunsets each evening.

Cedar Key is surrounded by the Cedar Keys National Wildlife Refuge - a refuge famous for its extensive colonies of nesting birds. Depending on the season you visit, you will see Roseate Spoonbills, White Pelicans, Dowitchers, Willets, Skimmers, Oystercatchers, Frigate Birds, Wood Storks, and many LBBs (little brown shorebirds, from plovers to sandpipers). Always resident are: Great Blue Herons, Little Blue Herons, Tricolors, Great Egrets, Osprey, Bald Eagles, and many others.

Our home is fully furnished and equipped for your comfort and convenience. Besides the fully-equipped kitchen, living and dining areas, we also have a laundry area with washer and dryer.

Cedar Key is perfect for couples or family vacations. Park your car and walk or use a golf cart to visit our restaurants, galleries, boat rentals, shops, and the town marina. Most dining and shopping options on Dock Street are two blocks from the Thomas Guesthouse. Bikes, scooters, and golf carts are also available if you would like to range a bit further. Cedar Key is part of Florida's Nature Coast--the wildlife is abundant. If you are looking to enjoy old Florida without the crowds, come to Cedar Key and relax on our balcony and watch the birds and boats go by. We promise you will not want to leave.

Perfection!!
I can't say enough good things about this house and the charming little town of cedar key! The house was clean and decorated so cutely! The living area looked out onto the gulf and had the biggest most comfortable couch ever. Really nice kitchen and comfy bed in the master too. I loved how the owners went above and beyond to explain how everything worked and even labeled all the switches so there was no guessing!! The sweet neighbors brought us pastries one morning and another one took our garbage out. Everywhere we went people were super friendly and just glad to have you there!! You are close to many state parks so its a perfect place for nature lovers. I feel like we will for sure be back!!!

Perfect!!
This house is in a prime location as it is walking distance to Dock St., downtown restaurants, shops, etc. It Is beautifully positioned right over the Gulf. It is meticulously decorated and the furniture is very comfortable as well as the beds. It has ample parking. My husband and I, with our two grown daughters & spouses and a nine year old were all very comfortable. Everyone had their own space and bathroom! The host answered all my questions thoroughly and promptly. We stay in Cedar Key quite often and this is the place we will stay from now on with our family.

Best location of all properties
We just spent two weeks here at this fantastic property. 6/15/2024 - 6/29/2024. This was our first time in Cedar Key. We chose this property as we were looking for pet friendly and large because we had friends join us during our stay and were not sure how big of a place we would need. It was just myself, my wife and our dog so we had lots of room. Large master bedroom on main level with large private bathroom and dressing area. Half bath on main floor with washer/dryer. Two upstairs bedrooms on second level each with private bathrooms. the master and one of the upstairs bedrooms have water view. The second upstairs bedroom has street view. you should not need anything at this place. They have thought of everything. very nice furnishings. The location of this place provides the best view. We saw many dolphins daily and they came in very close to hunt. You can fish right from your seawall however, although there were lots of fish to catch, they are mainly of the catch and release variety. Catfish, rays, sharks, ladyfish etc. We saw some very large leopard rays leaping out of the water very close by. You can easily walk into town but we rented a golf cart for our stay as parking on Dock Street is limited especially in the evening and weekends. The golf carts can squeeze into very small spaces. The owner of this place is fantastic! We had an ac issue and the owner had it resolved same day and it required a motor. Can't say enough. RENT THIS PLACE!

Weekend getaway
We are frequent visitors to Cedar Key; but this was our first time staying at the Magical Pink House. The location is an easy walk to Dock Street. House has lots of windows to enjoy the beautiful and amazing view. The house was charming, spacious, very comfortable, and clean. It was well stocked with everything we needed - plus some.

Family fishing gathering
We love to plan our trips around fishing and this place was a catch. You can fish right on the property and amenities were available such as fishing pole holders, and covered area in case it rains. We caught so many species of fish which kept us very happy. The house was perfect with gorgeous views in every room. It was tastefully decorated but some upgrades such as the wallpaper could use some repairs. That didn’t bother us a bit. The place was very clean. We would love to plan another visit in the future.

Great location and responsive host
We had a great time at the Magical Pink House, and communications with the owner--both before and during our stay--were great. As others have mentioned, the house would benefit from some updating and repairs, but that is understandable base on the battering it gets from the elements and the almost constant use by vacationeers. For example, a severe spring storm rolled through one morning and all the windows leaked on the side of the house facing the wind. We ran around stuffing towels in all of them. I let the owner know and she promptly responded that she would have their handyman check on it. We thoroughly enjoyed drinks on the deck in the evenings and family game nights around the dining room table. Be sure to walk the short distance down to the point to watch the sunset and again to enjoy the view of the Milky Way when it gets completely dark! We rented a golf cart, but it wasn't necessary since we could easily walk to the pier, restaurants, shops, etc. Some of the group fished from the patio, but didn't have a lot of success. (Book a trip with Capt Cameron at Saltwater Hitman Fishing Charter instead.) The kitchen was fairly well equipped for the couple of meals we prepared, but we really enjoyed all of the restaurants within walking distance. If you're looking for a quiet time with family, the Magical Pink House is a good choice.

Absolutely the best!
We LOVE the Magical Pink House. This was our third visit, and we will be back. The view cannot be beat, from both the inside and the outside...plus it's a short walk to either the shops on Second or the Pier. The living space is comfortable, and so are the beds! With 3.5 bathrooms, every bedroom has it's own bath...plus a half bath off the kitchen. Kitchen is very well appointed. Can't say enough good things about this property!

Not the best
Overall the place was okay, Bathrooms bad with mold around tub and showers, need some attention, main bedroom bath fan vibrates the bedroom floor above. outside deck should be replaced, boards not just weathered they are rotten with exposed nails. Worst of all we had grease all over kitchen floor after cooking breakfast only to find out the grease trap had not been cleaned for a very long time.
