The best thing for me and why I enjoy being a host is knowing my guests have had a great holiday!
Ellie & Joe are amazing people! They are so accommodating, friendly and on top of things! The property is like a mini- paradise. Ellie and Joe, Thank you both so much for your hospitality!
Loved our stay!! Ellie is the best! Don’t worry about packing beach supplies, she has everything you need. And if you forget your nail polish remover, she has that too! LOL! We will absolutely be back. And we loved playing with Kovi (the sweetest lab ever) in the pool.
Well kept, quaint, recommend to anyone. Elle is the sweetest and fun ..
We had a wonderful time. I wish I had the owner to help me keep my house as clean as this bungalow was! The only thing I wish we had looked into the area about a Doggie Beach because Clearwater doesn’t allow pets on the beach! But that was on us we had a great time!
This place has a great location and an excellent host in Ellie. The pool and hot tub were great. Due to the moisture in the area, there were some annoying bugs in the back yard, but nothing not manageable with some spray. Overall, I would definitely recommend this stay for a group of 2 or 3 people. It's very close restaurants in a nice neighborhood, and it is a short drive to the beach.
my daughter , my dog, and myself stayed here. The gardens were beautiful, the pool was just what you need at the end of the day and the hosts could not have been more lovely. We loved it!
My husband my daughter and myself with two granddaughters age 12 celebrating their birthdays here will be a memory we will never forget! Ellie and her husband with their two dogs and their son in the back are so friendly we never even knew they were there except to provide us with pool toys and make sure we were okay with everything, they were great! We wanted to stay longer but they were already booked it's not a wonder why cuz this is the best place to stay in Bellair Bluffs.
Enjoyed our stay at this comfortable little beachy house. Great neighborhood for walking our dog and short distance to restaurants/shopping. The owners were awesome and we enjoyed getting to know them. They were also very accommodating and made sure you were comfortable.
My daughter (13) and I stayed at Ellie’s cottage. Everything about this experience was perfect. Ellie has a warm welcoming personality. She creates an amazing relaxing experience and all the extras that make you feel catered to. I’m grateful she loves what she does as it shows in the cottage, her warmth and the beautiful surroundings she creates. Thank you Ellie, we feel blessed to have visited your amazing paradise.
My husband, daughter, and I stayed for a few nights and everything was wonderful! The room was cozy, the owner, Ellie, was such a doll! Very personable, extremely helpful, if we forgot something for the beach, Ellie had it! The cottage is within 10-15 minutes of the beaches and strips. It was the perfect location!! ...thank you Ellie, for such a wonderful experience. We will for sure be coming back!
