Description
Welcome to The Seashell Cottage, a charming piece of Anna Maria Island history where old Florida charm meets modern comfort. Built in 1925 during the Roaring Twenties, this beautifully preserved beach cottage invites you to slow down, soak up the island atmosphere, and enjoy the simple pleasures of coastal living.

From the cheerful yellow exterior, Bermuda shutters, and vintage peacock blue front door to the original architectural details inside, every corner of this home celebrates the timeless character of Old Florida. Spend your days strolling to the sugar-white Gulf beaches, browsing local boutiques, or enjoying nearby island restaurants—all just a short walk away.

The fully equipped kitchen makes dining at home easy, while the tropical backyard offers the perfect setting for outdoor meals with a gas grill, lush landscaping, and peaceful Gulf breezes. After a day at the beach, rinse off in the outdoor shower before relaxing on the cozy porch.

The primary suite features a king bed with a private ensuite bath, while the guest bedroom offers twin beds and its own ensuite bathroom. A sleeper sofa provides additional accommodations, allowing up to six guests to stay comfortably.

Complimentary Wi-Fi, cable TV, washer and dryer, linens, towels, and a fenced backyard complete this unforgettable island retreat.

Accommodates up to 6 guests.
