PRIVATE COTTAGE OCEAN VIEW 44 PACES TO BEACH, CLOSE TO RESTAURANTS AND SHOPS

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST LOCATION ON CLEARWATER BEACH. Private cottage with two outdoor seating areas. 44 paces to the beautiful combed white powder sugar sands of Clearwater Beach island. View the beautiful waters of the Gulf of Mexico ocean and watch the sunsets from the enclosed front room of the house or sit on the terrace for a panorama. Watch beautiful sunsets from the front terrace or from the dinning room table.
This sunny light filled cozy detached private beach house with central air conditioning and heating accommodates 2 to 6 persons. The quoted price is for one to four persons. Persons five and six incur an extra charge of $35 per night. 3 sleeping areas. 1. Master bedroom with king-size bed with private master bathroom; 2. second bedroom with queen-size bed and 3. front room with queen-size sleeper sofa. Second bathroom with double sink for sleeping areas 2 and 3. . For toddlers we have a pack and play bassinet. We provide a cooler for your beach picnics, beach umbrellas, beach chairs and beach towels. Fully equipped brand new kitchen with granite counter top. Utensils, pots, pans, coffee maker, toastee, blender, can opener, cork screw are all in the cottage. Entire flooring of Turkish marble. Marble walk in showers in both bathrooms.
Walk to the beach in your bathing suit.

There are two outside dining areas and free off street parking that will accommodate an RV and car or two cars tandem and one public parking in front. Beach parking can cost up to $25 per day, so this is a great savings by renting this particular beach house.

Close to restaurants and evening entertainment festivities at Pier 60. Hike north along the beach to reach Caladesi Island, one of the last undeveloped barrier islands on the East Coast of Florida.
You may find something cheaper on the mainland or on a canal, but here you are on the beach. No stress in fighting beach traffic, finding a parking place, paying a parking fee up to $25 per day, packing up, then doing the same thing day after day. In case of rain, it is only a one minute walk back to the house.
By the way, the house is very near the location of the Warner Brothers movie, Winter, the Dolphin Tale, starring Morgan Freeman.  The dolphin can be seen at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, 5 minutes from the house.  Here is a link:

If you like to hike, walk north along the beach to Caladesi Island State Park, one of the last undeveloped barrier islands on the Gulf of Mexico. It takes a little over an hour, past the beach mansions. Caladesi Island is now joined with Clearwater Island although some maps still show the two separated. There are nature trails on the Island which has a forest ranger station and three climatic zones: a palmetto forest, a pine forest and a hammock canopy. Here is an arial view from North Clearwater Beach to Caladesi Island.

Literally... On the beach!
A great place to stay to enjoy the famous Clearwater Beach. The beach area just steps from the cottage is lovely and very close to all central amenities. Clean, tidy, well stocked including beach chairs, umbrella, toys for kids etc. host great to deal with and responds promptly. Would love to return after the area recovers from the recent hurricanes, which I'm sure won't be long, to see it in it's true glory again.

Perfect location, no really, PERFECT
I can't emphasize the quality of this property. You can't get a better spot near the beach. It's away from the insanity of the high rises and pier, but within walking distance of shops and restaurants. If you head North on the beach, you'll find endless shells, wildlife and quiet stretches of sand for you. The house was clean, quaint, and comfortable. I'd stay again without hesitation. Thank you!

We had a great stay! The location was close to beach & within walking distance on the beach to Pier 60 & restaurants/shopping.

Great place
It feels like the Landlord treats the property as if it were for his own family. Everything is so well thought-through and arranged for enjoying every minute of being there. All this is supported with a winning location - hardly 300-360 steps from the waves! Due to strict home rules the neighborhood is peaceful and NOT noisy. Coming back for another vacation seems very probable :) .

Clearwater Beach Stay
Wonderful stay at this accommodation. The beach house was as described, clean and stocked with the essentials. Perfect location in north beach with easy access to the beach and a short 10 minute walk to Palm Pavilion and Frenchys. We really enjoyed to the front patio and the overall layout of the house. Would recommend.

Need better communication with property mgmt
The cottage is cute and steps away from the beach. They had everything we needed with exception of property management communication. The refrigerator started making a LOUD noise and Mary (Property Manager) was no where to be found. Voicemail full and no response to SMS text. Got a call from Walt, which was great, but wasn’t able to help with the situation. We had to throw away food because the items went bad. Also, there is a $25 charge for leaving a dirty grill. Well we had to clean it before using. Do we get the credit? Also, no credit for all the food we had to throw away. A bit disappointed with the communication. Aside from this the place was ok.

We have pleasant stay at Walter’s cottage. It is a perfect hideaway. The cottage perfectly set up and clean. There is complimentary coffee, spices, bath and diswashing soap. It is very close to restaurants and shops. We wouldn’t have it any other way.

Perfect location
Booking and check in was super easy, it was all through email. The location of this property was perfect, it is located about a half of a block from the beach entrance. It is within walking distance to Mandalay Ave which is the where alot of shops and restaurants are. The property itself was very clean and welcoming with beautiful marble floors and big showers. There's also a washer and dryer you can use. This property also has beach chairs, sand castle making kits and boogie boards that can be used. I highly recommend this property!

Better than advertised! Awesome host and local contact!!
We really loved our 3 night stay at the cottage. It is located 20 meters away from a beautiful white sand beach on a quiet street. It is walking distance from various restaurants on Mandalay Avenue, spotlessly clean with upgrades in the kitchen and bathrooms, and a good front yard to relax. Walter is a fantastic host and provided clear check-in and check-out instructions, and directions to the cottage from the airport. Local contact, Mary, is very responsive and kind - she made our 11pm arrival and late departure seem like a breeze. We highly recommend this cottage - it was perfect for our family of four.
