Comfortable furniture with all the kitchen necessities, but property would have benefited with a walk through before we arrived. Pool water level was low so pool heater was short cycling, lost most of a week of pool use due to cold water. Numerous light bulbs bad in kitchen and entry. Would rent again, better than average listing. ##### Richard K. Stayed 15 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Todd B. Apr 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Very nice rental house Our family really enjoyed this rental vacation home and was very close to beaches, shops, restaurants, etc. Very relaxing and enjoyed hanging out poolside when not out venturing AMI area. We had one issue during our stay - the clothes dryer did not produce any heat to dry our clothes. We packed for the trip knowing we had a washer and dryer and this created some frustrations as we had to run the dryer on air fluff for 3-4 cycles to get 1 load of clothes dried or hang them out on patio or closets. Overall, great place! Wish the management company would have gotten the dryer fixed within 24-48 hours of our stay, but was not addressed for our whole stay. ##### Todd B.

Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Shannon W. Dec 29, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Satisfied This property is in a nice, quiet neighborhood and is close to many stores. The home is smaller than what it appears in the pictures, but the decor is very cute. There are ample amounts of dishes/cookware available, but the pans are old and food was sticking to them. The bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable, but the beds in the other two rooms were cheap, hard, and squeaked whenever you moved. The pool was small and dated and did not stay warm during our stay (although the weather was very cool). There were also issues with some of the electrical outlets prior to our arrival and we were provided with extension cords to plug in the living room lamps. There was also an odor of wet dirt coming from the water in the home, but we were advised from the property manager that the smell would improve with more use, as the house had been sitting empty for a few weeks. Also, you are expected to supply your own trash bags, dish soap, paper towels, and toilet paper. They provide a “starter kit”, but if you’re staying longer than 4 or 5 days, you’ll need to buy your own. I’d rather pay extra money and have those supplies available for me to use, as needed, then going out and purchasing my own. We had to purchase more than what we’d ever use while we’re there, which is just wasteful. Overall, the stay was decent and the property manager was friendly and responded quickly. ##### Shannon W.

The house was very clean, spacious, well equipped, beautifully decorated and furnished. The property management company was friendly and provided excellent customer service. The owners have really thought of everything, including pool toys for the kids, floats, beach chairs, umbrellas and even provided a beach cooler. The current pictures don't do it justice. The neighborhood is beautiful and quite. No heavy traffic and the grocery store was a short drive from the property. The pool was very nice and clean. The outdoor area provided a tranquil atmosphere, we spent most of our evenings by the pool. Anna Maria Island and Coastline Excursions are also a short drive from the property and we absolutely loved exploring Anna Maria Island and snorkeling in the emerald waters of Anna Maria and Egmont Key. We got to see a lot of marine life, dwarf seahorses, sand dollars, star fish, manatees and dolphins. We have stayed at a couple of VRBO's but this one is one of the BEST!

Jul 7, 2021 #### so so rental Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: over all it was ok due to great location but for staying for 3 weeks with over $5000 price it was not the best rental experience we had. It felt every thing was put in placed with cheapest setup. TV was difficult to use due to terrible cable setup, broken down dangerous furniture and flea infestation and we have to wash linen and conmforter to prevent alergy flare up. TV remote did not work in two out of three rooms. For 3 weeks we are provided only few toilet paper. Pool side was spider web infested and dirty and pool side storage was nasty. ##### Anthony M. ### 6/10 Okay #### Lisa W. May 27, 2021 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Could’ve been better Upon arriving late in the evening, we immediately noticed the couches were so soiled we didn’t feel comfortable sitting on them. The property manager came by next day to examine and made arrangements for the maintenance guy to come the following day, to spot clean the couch cushions, they also smelled. He chose to clean the area rug as well and it was so filthy the water came black. The chintzy supplies were quite embarrassing. The tiny bars of soap were so small it was a waste for them to even be packaged, really? There was one extra roll of the cheapest toilet paper, one very small roll of the cheapest paper towel, two dish washing pods for the dishwasher, one of which we were reminded to use to clean the dishes before we left so the cleaning people didn’t have to. There was ONE extra trash bag and all the trash cans were dirty inside Trash day notification needed to be updated as we read to put them out on a day that didn’t get picked up, needs to be corrected, and get this, you can’t put it out the night before.....what? Although we paid a cleaning fee we were asked to remove the linens, & wash, put away all the dishes, ok no problem but maybe we should share the cleaning fee since I had to clean before we could comfortably enjoy this place. The comforters were not clean, I recommend taking them completely off the bed before use! The bathroom mats were so dirty I had to put them in the wash before we could use them. The quantity and the quality of the items stocked did not match the cost of the rental, not to mention the low supply of towels for four people. The dryer was full of pet hair, and the pillows were stained, thank God we brought our own! We were aware 10:00 is the check out time, but the cleaning lady sat in front our place one hour and fifteen minutes before check out. The staff does not call when they say they’re going to. We know of other that rentals offer some sort of cancellation policy and payment plan, however this place required full payment at the time of booking with absolutely no options to cancel. They weren’t clean or good enough to require that for sure! Needless to say we do not recommend Florida Dreams rental nor will we ever book with them again. ##### Lisa W.

Apr 16, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Vacation with friends Had to check in late due to new pool heater being installed. Had no hot water the 2nd day but property mgmt solved quickly. Trash days marked incorrectly in book. Pool could have been cleaner and no net ##### Deb R.

They changed the water heater on our last day of our stay. :( The floors were filthy. We wore shoes in the house after the first day because our socks and bare feet were turning black. Besides these two things, we enjoyed our stay. ##### Scott J. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2021 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julie C. Mar 27, 2021 #### Amazing Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our experience at Kim’s cottage was great! The pool area is amazing and beautiful! The master bedroom TV would not connect to the remote. The rental has everything one would need! Very cozy and comfortable. ##### Julie C. ### 8/10 Good #### Robert D. Mar 26, 2021 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Family Vacation Great little house. Close to everything, clean and great pool area. Comfortable beds, plenty of towels and stocked with kitchen utensils, etc. It was great having beach chairs, umbrella, cooler and sand toys already there. ##### Robert D.
