If you like to be close to the beach and have a pool that’s open late, this is the perfect place to stay. There’s a stunning sunrise over the lake in the morning and a beautiful beach at the other side of the road. It won’t take you more than a couple of minutes to walk over. If you’re into excellent food, you have to go to town or further south, and the road gets pretty busy in the weekends. So it took us an hour to go to town on a Friday because of traffic. But if being close to the beach is your priority, this is a perfect place. The hotel is so nice and quiet, and especially with kids it’s so practical to have a kitchen with everything you need. We also took the shuttle up North to go on a Dolphin trip and the shuttle is great. It’s free and the kids loved it. Very easy. Only disappointment was the bed it was so worn, that I woke up with a sore back and neck every morning. The mattress is terrible, it really needs a change. The room was nice and clean, did have a damp smell to it, like a cottage in the woods can smell when left alone for a while - might be the air conditioning, it was on when we arrived, but I didn’t use during our stay, and it did get better. Super nice and quiet in the evening and friendly and helpful staff. But that mattress really needs a change - I regret not saying anything while staying there. Number 12. If you really want a good sunrise spot, choose the rooms right by the sea. I would do so next time.

It was hard to tell what this property was like from the pictures posted, but on arrival was much better than my expectations. Easy to find, adorable colorful cottages, and a friendly staff greeted my husband and I. Our cottage was updated, clean and on a quiet lane. Neighbors were friendly. The pool , ocean, and dock were all within a minute’s walk. Great location and hope to be able to book a stay again next year!

This was a wonderfully maintained property. Great location. Private beach just across the street. Clean and inviting pool. We felt very relaxed and safe there and the other people that stayed were kind. Nice family culture. Loved the fishing pier and view of the water. Staff were very helpful and welcoming! I Would definitely return with my family again.

I liked the communication on Christmas morning when we checked in. The place was clean besides the dreaded sand I wish I knew how small it was. I hated the smoking allowed. One lady smoked non stop and at the pool and infront of her cottage. her and the grounds keeper. smoking allowed is fine but it should be told. no one around the pool to ask if she could go smoke somewhere else.

Perfect location, quiet and clean. Pool is nice and beach access is right across the street and loungers for free. Staff is nice. Check in and check out was super easy. Nice to have 2 parking spots right in front of our own cottage for a car and golf cart. Trolley stop right there, lots of places to walk to or take the trolley or drive to. Price is high but seems like that for the all of the island, even in off season. Great stay.

I have never been to this area of Florida and was nervous about this rental. It met and exceeded all expectations! It is a. cute little property with all you need. We were very happy with our space that included a kitchen, king bed and pull out couch. It is hard to find dining without long waits in the area so better to prep from Publix and make the meals you can on site. There is a pool nd pier as well as lovely beach access. It wasn't perfect but it was just right for us and we would definitely go back!

Thank you for returning to stay with us once again. We appreciate your feedback. The pools are heated, however, when the colder temperatures affect our local weather, they work overtime trying to increase the heat of a large body of water. I will share your feedback with our maintenance department to make them aware. We hope to see you in the future!

Tradewinds check in was easy and we were able to get into our cottage earlier than guaranteed check in. The cottage was clean and comfortable. We had everything that you could possibly need from towels, to kitchen supplies. We didn't have to buy anything. The unit was clean and well stocked with necessities, easy walk to the beach, nice pool choices, complementarity coffee packets and coffee, tea and hot chocolate by the cup next door. Our cottage was recently renovated and was beautiful. This was my second stay at Tradewinds and will stay there again!

We stayed in early December and it was only about half occupied. We were in a middle unit and sound traveled easily through the walls so not sure how quiet it would be if all units were occupied. However, the cottages were charming, very clean and well stocked. The pool area was nice and there is a pier to walk out on. Easy walk to several restaurants and the Bridge area.
