If you are looking for an authentic old Florida beach cottage, call Captain Al. I could live here all winter!

My sister and I had the best time staying at the lemon tree cottage!! We made so many wonderful memories!! These cottages are so cute and quaint. They were built 100 years ago, but since the hurricanes they Have been remodeled with new floors and furniture!! Captain Al is very personable and on the spot anything you want he will tell you!! Nancy was the best best. Best host!! We just loved her anything we wanted to know or do she knew about! She’s a bright and shining person and we just love her!! Mike, the maintenance guy has a lot of character and laughs!! These cottages are steps away from the beach and shops and restaurants. We went to all our favorite places!! I live in Clearwater, but my sister flew in from Houston!! They have a big beautiful hot tub in the middle of the surrounding Cottages There’s so much nostalgia!! very cool!!

Omg... I can not say enough about this shabby chic place on the middle of some great food and fun with the beach just steps from the door. Capt. Al and staff were great. Can't wait to go again.

Cute cluster of cottages. Very accommodating and thorough with instructions. They are very close to each other and on the main road. Great place if you like vintage, classic, rustic. I don't know about the other cottages, but the corner cottage was great for the kids, they where able to sleep well even when going to bed around 8pm. Quiet enough and quaint.

Capt. Al and his crew were very friendly and responsive. The entire compound is set up in such a cool way! It's awesome how everyone has their own parking space and it is very clearly labeled so there is no fighting for spots. The walk to the beach is MINIMAL and very easy!!! We were pleasantly surprised to discover that there are community beach items; chairs, boogie boards, coolers, etc. The pictures on the listing are out of date now because of the hurricanes. Capt. Al told us about all the updates he had to do... so the house has all new flooring and new kitchen appliances! We absolutely hope to stay on this property again, and I can't stress how personable and attentive Capt. Al and his crew are! If we were sitting outside, they never hesitated to say hi and make us feel welcome! We would give this property and Capt. Al 10 Stars if we could!

This place is a gem for sure. If you are looking for a posh brand new condo, keep walking! This place has endless character and charm. Super close to the beach. A pizza by the slice joint and a late night bar right across the street and all the beat restaurants just to the street via a pleasant walk. Awesome location overall.

If you want to live like a local. This is it! Captain Al has made a unique experience that is rare to find now a days. I spent two weeks here about 15 years ago and it’s still one of the best vacations I’ve experienced. Your feet hit the sand right around the corner for relaxing days at the beach. Water is great! Clear. This area of the beach is not as congested Clearwater Beach by the Pier. Once you want to adventure, Walk down to Frenchy or Palm Pavilion to get great food, live music and great drinks. Or if you are looking for more excitement keep walking south. Or come back and check out shipwrecked across the road. I Love the serenity of the entire experience. Thank you Captain Al! Note: it’s not all glitz and glam for the boujie people. This is Beach life to a T with all necessities. Bring your suit, shorts and flip flops and enjoy living in the moment. You won’t regret it.

Lemon Cottage was a delightful and inviting accommodation. The Jacuzzi hot tub provided an exceptional relaxation experience. The owner demonstrated great flexibility in securing an additional parking space for our convenience. Furthermore, the cottage's proximity to the beach, just a few steps away, added to its overall appeal.
