Seahorse Cottages are the perfect location for your Treasure Island Florida stay. Step from your cottage directly onto the beautiful white sands of the beach and directly across the street from Publix supermarket. The cottages are clean and simple (not an elite resort accommodation, but who goes to the beach to stay in their room?!) provides the necessities to bathe, eat and sleep. Enjoyed sitting at the picnic tables and watching the BEAUTIFUL sunsets !! Great quaint place to relax !! Thank you Seahorse Cottages.

Great beach cottage
Cottage #5 at Seahorse Cottages was so charming! It is a real throwback to "old" Florida. If you are looking for refinement, if you are fastidious, if you are a clean freak or a security freak, this cottage is not for you. But if you are looking a casual, comfy and cozy spot on a beautiful beach, check this out. The cottage is exactly as it looks in the pictures. The bed and the bathroom are comfortable. The kitchen is small but adequate, especially with the barbeques and picnic tables available right outside the door. Customer service was very good. It was unseasonably hot and we asked for a fan and it was delivered immediately. The maintenance guy also adjusted the frig as it was set too cold. For a seafood dinner, Middle Grounds Grill is wonderful. RumFish Grill is also very good. For more casual dining, Ricky T's Bar and Grill has really good bar food. And it is worth going to Ted Peters for a unique casual dining experience. I would recommend the cottages to anyone looking for a very laid-back, fun stay on the beach.

Treasure island vacation
Location was amazing. Cottage was rustic but nice. Only downfall was the ac was horrible. We had to buy 2 fans and the broken furniture in the grass needs to be removed as it makes this quaint cottage look trashy. We will be back in the future.

The location of Seahorse Cottage #5 was wonderful.
The location of Seahorse Cottage #5 was wonderful. We had beach towels available, which was nice. And the kitchen appliances worked. However, we did have issues with the property and will not be staying there again.1. We never received steady WiFiI even called and sent a text message to see if anything could be done. Was told someone would call me back but no one did. The only place that had a steady WiFi signal was in our car in the parking lot.2. The 2 teeny tiny window air conditioners did little to cool the cottage down. We went to Walmart and bought a small table fan just to try to be cool enough to sleep at night. 3. There is NO storage. We had to keep our clothes in our suitcases and dig through them each morning. There is a small closet, but no drawers.There was 3 of usmy husband, myself, and my 12 year old son. I knew it was a small space, but it was tolerable. With a little updating, the cottage would be great. My biggest issues were the WiFi and air conditioningI expected both, and both were sorely lacking.

Location and ease of booking the vacation was fabulous. The cottage was rustic which was fine but the ac units hardly work and we had to buy 2 fans. The property is right on the beach which is amazing but the grounds are a mess and need to be cleaned up. Broken on chairs thrown in the grass is unacceptable. We also called the 800 number for firewood and was told someone would deliver it and that never happened. For the price the location is amazing.

# 5- Seahorse Cottage
This our second stay at Seahorse and both times we stayed in # 5. It has a wonderful view of the gulf and the sunsets. We love the fact that it's right on the beach, next to a 1 mile paved walking trail and lots of restaurants and lounges. There's a Publix grocery store right across the street which has any food or alcoholic beverages one might need. Although it's on the rustic side it absolutely is a very nice cottage. It has a full kitchen, a dining area, living room and bedroom all in one. If there is anything I might change is in the bathroom. There's really no place to put things other than a small medicine cabinet over the sink. About the only thing that might work is a corner unit next to the toilet but I don't recall if there's enough room between the toilet & wall to fit one. Perhaps some wicker shelves hung on the wall would work. At any rate, when we return next year we will definitely book this cottage again.

Great location!
Cottages were very nice. They are older and have some 'wear and tear', but they were very clean and had everything we needed for our short stay. We could easily walk to restaurants and grocery store. The location was the best part with the ability to walk out of the cottage and be right on the beach.

Beds broken Down, Windows filthy
I'm only giving 2 stars for the location. However this place needs a good deep cleaning and a nice mattress. The bed is downright awful. Paint is chipped everywhere. I didn't expect much but would a coat of paint and some cleaning be too much to ask. These places could be so much better for just a little bit of effort. It's kinda sad.

Spring Break 2017
We stayed in cottage 5. The location is great. The cabin is rustic as described and I didn't mind the look. However, there were a few issues. 1) The bed was terrible. A good mattress would definitely improved our stay. 2) We did call to report there was no gas in the grill and no one ever came to fix it. 3) A maintenance person showed up during our stay and wanted to come in to measure something. This made me extremely uncomfortable. I don't understand why this wasn't taken care of after we checked out since this wasn't something we reported. 4) The information provided prior to the stay said there would be beach towels and bath towels provided. There were no beach towels. There were 4 bath towels provided but as you can imagine, showering daily even sometimes twice per day, there was a need for at least double that. 5) The table only sat 2. In my opinion, If the room sleeps 4, there should be seating for 4 at the table as well. Overall the stay was ok but could drastically improved if the items above are addressed. I cannot stress enough how perfect the location is though!
