About this property

Key Lime Cottage - 1930's 2 bed 2 bath beach cottage - Steps from the Sand

Step back in time with a stay in one of the first cottages built on the beach. Start your morning with a cup of coffee on your private deck watching the waves. Thomas Donuts across the street offers a variety of breakfast pastries and sandwiches, or take advantage of the equipped kitchen and cook your own.

When it's time to head to the beach, you're only a house and a street away from the sand. This section of public beach has no high-rises nearby so you can find your own space to enjoy the soft sand.

For a mid-day break from the sun, the large covered patio is a great place for a lunch without sand in your SANDwiches.

When you're done with the sand, we have an outdoor shower to rinse off and plenty of places to hang up your wet items to dry for the next day. There is also a washer & dryer to ensure you have clean suits and towels. We provide detergent and dryer sheets.

The sunset from the upper deck is a beautiful way to wrap up the day. There is also a table and chairs if you'd like to enjoy your dinner al fresco.

The cottage has two bedrooms, each with a new, comfortable queen bed. The master bedroom has an attached bathroom with stand-up shower. The second bathroom, also with a standup shower, is off the main living space.

We welcome your four-legged doggy family as well. We do ask that for the sake of guests after you, no dogs on the couch or beds please. An additional $150 pet fee will be charged after booking.

We have Electric Vehicle (EV) charging available to our guests with 40 amp service. It is provided at cost billed at checkout. Please let us know that you will need it so it can be activated for your stay.

Notes:

- There is an exterior video surveillance system in use as well as Amazon Alexa for your use for music and information.

A good choice

We enjoyed our experience at Key Lime cottage. The owner, Pamela, was quick to respond to a cold related plumbing issue and in general promptly responded to any inquiry we had. At the last minute we had to extend our stay for a medical issue and were given a fair price for the few extra days.The ocean view was sensational and the donuts at Thomas's didn't suck.

Mini Vacation

This was our third stay here. We love location. Deck upstairs has been redone & is a great place to relax. 2 bedrooms & baths worked perfectly for us. Having Thomas Donuts across street is a bonus. Owner super great to work with.

Quaint and amazing view!

This house was quaint but housed all of our needs and then some! Two bathrooms is vert nice, lots of beach toys and chairs in the mud room. What really makes this house is the deck and the incredible views that it allows! Don't miss going next door for biscuits and gravy, kolachees and donuts!

Wonderful time in Key Lime Cottage

My family and I had a great time in cozy Key Lime Cottage. We loved the location. An easy walk to the beach, and we really loved the easy access to the Donut Shop. It was a tight fit for four adults, but we made it work. Looking forward to returning.

Perfect beach vacation

Loved loved loved the Key Lime Cottage! The location can’t be beat; it was so nice to take just a few steps and be on the beach. Cottage was very clean, bed was comfy, and kitchen is well equipped. Having a donut/pizza shop next door and a grocery store within walking distance was a huge bonus. Neighborhood is pretty quiet and I felt safe traveling solo (well, with my chihuahua, who also enjoyed her stay and loved people watching from the rooftop deck!) I can’t wait to go back!!

Loved it!

The Key Lime Cottage was perfect for our needs. Very clean and cozy with all the amenities that we needed. It's about 8 steps to the sandy beach! I like that it's away from the crowds but about 8 min from the mall and Pier Park. I We would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Pamela Gondeck

Host profile image
My husband and I love to spend time outdoors, sometimes that's on land camping and hiking, other times it's underwater scuba diving. We live near New Orleans with our two kids and our puppers, a pittie mix named Quinn. While the food at home can't be beat, the water around here is a bit too murky for diving and the shores too muddy. So we escape whenever we can to enjoy the Gulf views.

Why they chose this property

We found this cottage when looking for a quiet Thanksgiving retreat. The location was amazing - no high rises around, neighborhood atmosphere, cute historic cottage and that view from the deck! Once we arrived, we saw it was for sale and immediately the wheels started turning. I'm a lover of old houses and one of my hobbies is DIY renovations. All I could think of was giving this home the love it needed while enjoying all the location had to offer. By the time we left that weekend, we were certain we would be back.
