We were pleasantly notified that we could arrive early before 4, but didn’t tell us that the code did not work until 4. We had to call and get the code for the key. There was a musty smell in the house. But the house was clean. The bikes were a great surprise. And the grill. Liked the pool the hot tub was not hot. And low pressure jets. The toilet bowl was really small made for a child. Nice Shower. Enjoyed the screened in porch and putting green. Loved the location but wasn’t expecting construction and no privacy for most of the day. All in all we really enjoyed our stay at the Wee Cottage.

Old florida vibesBoth my partner and I were born and raised in Florida, and we’ve seen a great many changes -particularly to our coastlines. We love Wee Cottage because it reminds us of what once was. If you are looking for a shiny, razzle-dazzle, modern home, keep scrolling. If you want to experience a cozy, old Florida vibe, this is the place. It’s small, and clean. The putting green and pool are a great backyard touch. We just really loved being in this space. We spend a lot of time in Anna Maria and a couple of our favorites were lost to the hurricanes last year. I’m so glad this old girl survived because she’s now become our ‘place’.

The Wee Cottage is a charming older home. The furniture is dated but it fits the cottage theme. The sofa bed mattress should be updated. The TVs had cable access but not access to log into streaming services. The backyard is very nice with the pool and putting green. We enjoyed sitting by the pool, but the house next door was under construction (no fault of the property) but it was noisy as we were trying to enjoy time at the pool.Our biggest issue was the additional daily fee to heat the pool to 85 degrees. This fee was not disclosed in the listing when we booked and was only mentioned when we contacted the property management company a few days before our trip to make sure the heat would be on. The location of the cottage is fantastic. It was only a 3-minute walk to the beach. It was a short walk to the main road with shops to explore.

Quaint Cottage

Comfortable bed and living area. Pull out sofa was mediocre for sleeping but was ok for young teens. Nice kitchen. Really cute pool and golf area especially if it was cleaned up a little. Provided 2 golf clubs and balls, pool toys, floaties, 2 bikes to use. Screen porch was a pleasant area to hang out and eat.

Cute Wee Cottage!

The house is perfect for one or two people and it exudes “old Florida” charm. The backyard is large and pretty secluded, with a nice pool and a small comfortable lanai that is connected to the bedroom. The bathroom is very small but there’s a good sized shower so it suited our needs perfectly. Don’t worry about the A/C units not doing the job, the 2 of them were very sufficient in keeping the place very cool. Great location, easy walk to Pine Avenue and one of the best beach accesses is right around the corner. Lovely home!

Property had charm of old Florida. House was basic but provided everything we needed. Master bed was comfortable with nice linens. Mattress and linens on sofa sleeper could use an upgrade but our kids didn't mind. Pool could have been cleaner as we had to skim upon arrival. Overall nice property and ideally located for walking to many options for adults, kids and more. Would rebook.

Great Location!

House was clean and very close to beach. The pool and spa were dirty and none of the 3 property management people could help operate the spa. The house doesn’t really have any beach gear so you will need to rent. We came back from beach to a Vacasa guy roaming around the house checking fire extinguishers without notifying us. The house is close to everything shopping and beach.

Stinky house

There is a very bad smell in the whole house. Furniture is broken and dirty. Refrigerator doesn’t work properly. Fence was being removed next door so had no privacy. Luckily the property manager was a super star and found us a beautiful house to move into.

We loved the wee cottage location and charm but home & pool were not cleaned well. It was a bummer since we vacation in AMI often & would have loved to rent it again if the house would have been cleaner. The pool was lovely if it would have been cleaned & if the hot tub worked would be nice and should be mentioned in the description of the property that is just for show.

AMI Spring Break

Cute, quaint cottage. Loved the old Florida style decor. House inside was clean. Window air conditioner units kept house cool. The one in the bedroom was noisy though and kicked on often. Shower is a good size but the bathroom is very small. Pool was warm and great! Loved the putting green. Would've been nice to have a couple other putters though. Screened porch with table and chairs was very nice. Landscaping and the outside area needed some TLC and clean up. Hose to fill the pool had two splits in it. Homes around the cottage were very run down and an eye sore. A lot of construction! Maybe a result of the recent hurricane. Location to the beach, restaurants and shopping was fantastic! Enjoyed our stay and would definitely book again!

Disliked: Communication, location, listing accuracy
We left after the first night because the conditions were completely unacceptable and materially different from what was represented in the listing. The home was surrounded by two active construction sites at the rear and a dilapidated abandoned house immediately adjacent to the property. There was constant loud banging and drilling beginning around 7:30 a.m. and continuing through sundown. Construction workers also had direct sightlines into the backyard, making the outdoor space unusable and eliminating any sense of privacy.None of this was clearly or adequately disclosed in the listing. While the word “construction” was mentioned, it did not convey that the backyard would be unusable, that privacy would be compromised, or that there would be persistent noise throughout the day. Nothing in the listing prepared us for the reality of the conditions we encountered.In addition, the pool was advertised as being heated to 85 degrees, which it was not.I contacted the host/property manager immediately and was told I was not eligible for a refund due to the vague reference to “construction” in the listing. As a result, I lost the full cost of the stay and was forced to book another hotel the next morning.I feel misled by the listing and deeply disappointed by the handling of this situation.
