Celebrating love

We were in FL for a wedding and couldn't have enjoyed our stay any more. The Love Shack really was the most amazing romantic getaway. Every detail of the house from the decor to the kitchen ware was perfectly done. The beach and sunset views were spectacular! We can't wait to come back for our next stay!

500 Square Feet of Billionaire Lifestyle

It’s the lure of experiencing one of the few remaining, authentic 1915 beach houses, right on the sand, that brought us, but we weren’t expecting the beautiful and luxurious ambiance of the “shack” itself. Absolutely up-to-date, spot-on gorgeous (“So cute!” in my wife’s words) interior design. Top designer appliances, finishes and furnishings inside and out. Two giant TVs with AppleTV and other streaming. “Smart” lighting is often dumb and unintuitive; in this place it works obviously and seamlessly. Hats off to whomever did the systems integration; the place is fully automated and yet it all just…works. Great location away from much of the hustle and bustle but easy enough to jaunt there if you wish. But the patio, then your private beach, then the hammock, the two Adirondack chairs, then the two chaise lounges, and a few more steps you’re toes are in the water, sunset just for you. Billionaire lifestyle inside and out, distilled conveniently onto 500sf of living space plus your own slice of beach. It’s cliche to say, but you will not want to leave.

I was looking to get away for a few days and do nothing but relax at the beach, and I couldn’t have chosen a more perfect spot. The property is impeccable with every detail well thought out. Kitchen is well stocked and great for cooking in, bed was comfortable, and…it is mere steps from an absolutely stunning beach. I will be back!

Love, love, love The Love Shack

The Love Shack was the cutest, most well done, most welcoming little place we have ever stayed! We loved the location. It was within walking distance to so many places, beach side and road side. Our only regret is that our stay wasn't longer. This perfect little place will always be our first choice for the Anna Maria Island area. Hope to be back soon!

This is the perfect oceanfront beach house. I feel like the term cottage doesn’t do it justice. Everything is beautifully executed. I can’t recommend it enough.

Paradise!

An experience of a lifetime! Your own slice of paradise! A private beach and less than 10 steps to the sand! The interior…WOW! Every little touch! We were disappointed to only have 2 towels for the week for 2 people. We unfolded the swan :) and that gave us 4! Mgmt finally brought more 2 days before we left. TV. In bedroom never worked properly. Maint came but still no luck. Only other disappointment was the porches and outdoor furniture. They had not been cleaned at all. The Love Shack was so special….it was worth a little aggravation. We would definitely return!
