Great location, great house!

The short walking distance to both the beach and John’s Pass make this house great! The layout was perfect for us… we had the bottom floor to ourselves, and our 3 daughters enjoyed the 3rd level bedroom. The middle living room floor was perfect for evening family time. Definitely will book again!

Absolutely Amazing !!

What a great place to stay at! We absolutely had the best time there. Only problem was I wish we would have stayed longer!!! lol It had everything we needed and more and it had plenty of room for everyone. I look forward to staying there again. My family loved every minute of it …so thank you!! I would recommend this place to anyone and I would give it 10 stars if I could.

Great location, very well stocked vacation home

This place has an awesome location. Newly paved street, great for walking. The house is stocked with everything you could need for vacation at the beach. I especially enjoyed sitting outside near the fire pit even though we didn't have a fire we could have if we wanted to. The kids loved the little bedroom nook. The top bunk bed was too squeaky and they didn't use it. The full sized washer and dryer also a huge plus.

Perfectly positioned getaway…Close to John’s Pass and just steps from the beach. The listing should offer a more detailed description and photos of the floor & room layout as this property is better than advertised. Other than the fire pit flaming (out of propane) out 20 minutes into lighting it was perfect.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Disliked: Communication
Pros: very close to Johns Pass, approx a 3 to 5 minute walk, property was nicely decorated and clean and had plenty of everything you would need. Cons: there was road construction going on literally right outside the front door which was noisy and disruptive and could not sit outside, I should have been advised ahead of time. Downstairs bathroom was old and the shower did not work, so we all used the upstairs shower. Microwave tripped a fuse which knocked out half the kitchen including fridge and the back bedroom including ac. We searched everywhere for the breaker box which ended up being locked in a room behind the house. Vacasa gave us the runaround for 2.5 hours before agreeing to send somone to reset the fuse. They kept asking me to run around the house to look for the fuse box despite me telling them over and over that its not in the house, meanwhile the guy they sent used a screwdriver to pry open the back door. Honestly this was just aggrevating and because of these two issues I would not stay again.

One of a kind! This house is a gem!

The house had everything we needed! Beach supplies towels sand toys chairs…. You name it they had it! The description on Vrbo doesn’t begin to explain how close the house is to the beach entrance or how well stocked the house is to make your stay great! This is by far my favorite rental I have stayed in and we travel 3-4 times a year! We had an issue with a leaky ac and with in minutes of me notifying them I had message saying they where coming to fix it and no one had to be present… the issue was fixed right away. Very easy process and will definitely stay here again in the future

Sol Mate Beach Cottage

We loved this cottage: its history, the furnishings, amenities, and its proximity to the beach and ocean. It's a 1930's refurbished charmer!

Madeira Beach cottage

This cute, quirky and comfortable cottage was perfect for our family of five. The accommodation is just steps to the sand, and a very short walk to John’s Pass. It has been renovated and decorated tastefully and with a lot of care. It has the charm of an old-fashioned beach cottage, yet we found everything to be updated and in working order.

Close to beach, but…

This property was very clean upon arrival, stocked with amenities, super close to the beach, lots of amazing restaurants near by, and John’s pass for shopping, renting water crafts and food options. The beach is gorgeous with beautiful blue-green water and white sand that doesn’t get hot! The house itself is old but clean and well decorated. The layout downstairs is tight and small. The kitchen and eating area are super small for real eating and sitting. Seating for 4 but very tight. The second floor is more open and great for relaxing. The main issue for us was the loud, busy road next to the house and the empty parking lot on the side of the house. The empty parking lot gets full of beach parking which means lots of noise, parking lot parties, motorcycle rallies and a teen hang out spot. John’s pass across the street plays band music which will work for people who enjoy loud music and party type atmosphere with the parking lot. If you are looking for more quiet and peaceful, you should know this before booking or at least ask questions. It’s a busy area with lots of people but a beautiful beach.

Great Beach House!

We’ve stayed at a few different properties in the Treasure Island area and this is our favorite so far! This place is less than a 1/4 mile walk to John’s Pass and about 100 yards from the beach. The property itself is clean and spacious and has everything you need for a vacation to the beach. Beach chairs, umbrellas, wagon, coolers, boogie boards, frisbees, etc can all be found in the storage shed adjacent to the home which is a huge plus! This place was perfect for our family of four! We will definitely be looking to stay here again next time we are in the area!

Great location and nice house

Travelled as a family of four and had lots of space and was very nice overall. Location can’t be beat as it was literally just a few steps to the beach without paying a premium to be on the beach.

OVER THE TOP satisfied!

I’ll be honest with everyone, Im one of those people that can *usually* find something wrong or a downfall/shortcoming in some regard… This property made that virtually impossible for me! This was a combined birthday/mothers day/Father’s Day gift to my mother and father in law, they love Florida and are always excited for a trip as we are. (There were 4 of us staying) My mother n law actually commented that “this by far, is the cleanest rental property I’ve ever stayed in” At the end of the day, everything was wonderful from a housing and location standpoint. With the beach literally being a few steps away was HUGE for us. I would ABSOLUTELY stay here again and would encourage ANYONE to do the same. Thank you for everything and thank you for the memories that we will remember for a lifetime!

Nice House

This is a very nice two bedroom house in a good neighborhood located within a 5 minute walk to John's Pass and an even closer walk to the beach. The house has all you could ask for if you want to make meals at home, even a gas grill. There are beach chairs, beach umbrellas, boogie boards, etc. and a wagon to take all the items to the beach. There is a nice sitting area outside the front door with a gas fire pit. The inside is very nice and there are numerous stairs leading up to the family room and more leading to the bedroom with bunk beds. There was more than enough room and places to sleep for a family of seven. We would stay here again if we make it back to the area.
