The Cleanest Cottage on the Beach! Our Reviews do the talking

The Cleanest Cottage on the Beach! Our Reviews do the talking.
Our cottage at Gulf Sounds, the 'TREASURE' of Treasure Island beach cottages, is an easy, safe 30 yard stroll to the beach boardwalk and the pristine beaches of Treasure Island. Our bungalow/cottage is in a small, intimate resort and is very private. Yet, step outside the gate and you are a short walk from the middle of all the activities of Treasure Island and Madeira Beach. You can access the beach in less than a minute, or easily walk to World Famous John's Pass with its numerous fresh seafood restaurants, unique shops, ice cream parlors, chartered fishing boats,and waterfront bars. The Suncoast Beach Trolley stops at our corner, so you can visit all the beaches clear down to Clearwater for one low fare per day. A public boat ramp is located across the street.

Our charming Key West style 2 bedroom, 1 bath cottage has almost 700 square feet and has been recently repainted and redecorated with new furnishings and appliances. Our cottage offers beautiful oak hardwood floors, newly renovated and fully stocked kitchen, a tiled bath, a living room with a sofa and love seat, a comfortable side chair, coffee and end tables, and seating for four in the dining area. A large covered patio, shared by two other cottages is right outside your door. The patio features dining tables to enjoy the great Florida weather. Gulf Sounds is lushly landscaped and offers a covered patio and charcoal barbecue grill, a second floor sundeck, outside shower, and a fully fenced property that provides exceptional privacy.

We really liked our cottage. It was nicely laid out & had everything we needed. We did have a problem with the code to get into the cottage but James took care of it very quickly. Loved how close we were to the beach. We would definitely go back again.

Wish I had had the address prior to booking
This property is right on the corner of a very busy and very noisy street. Wasn't able to get a good nights' rest or even an afternoon nap. The floors need a good scrubbing. Kitchen had ants coming in the uncalked area under cabinets. And, unit smells musty.

Super Cozy!
Last minute vacation with the kiddos. The cottage was clean and cozy. We felt right at home. Everything was comfortable and all the little extras were great. There are umbrellas, chairs and floats to use and that was a big plus for us. The beach was great and just a quick walk away. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you for sharing your cottage with us.

Very clean and short walk to the beach
This is the cleanest beach cottage we have ever stayed at! Very quiet, uncrowded part of the beach. There were SO MANY shells to collect. No need to bring any beach chairs or sand toys, there are plenty for everyone. Close to lots of restaurants and shops. The owners provide lots of little things that you may need during your stay. Road noise is pretty loud, but there is a box fan that drowns it out pretty well. Only thing missing for me was a Keurig, because I am spoiled to mine lol. Would absolutely stay here again! We had a great trip!

Like home away from home
We loved it here. It was super clean. They had everything you needed. My favorite thing in the cottage besides the comfortable bed in the master bedroom and the awesome A/C was the manatee above the tv in the living room :) it was our daughter's 16th birthday and the were kind enough to stop by with a cupcake and card. The beach was right there and we enjoyed plenty of snorkeling at low tide where we found more than enough shells to take home. I would definitely stay again. Thank you so much for the generous hospitality

An Absolute Treasure
My sister and I had a wonderful winter escape to Treasure Island and were so happy we chose this location. The cottage was clean and updated, and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We especially appreciated having beach towels and chairs for our use. The beach access was so convenient and we loved spending time there, even on a cloudy/windy day. We would recommend this cottage to anyone planning a trip to this area!

Close to the Beach
Our family only had a few days to spend in Florida but we enjoyed our stay here. The cottage was impeccably clean and had everything you might need, including plenty of starter supplies. The beds were comfortable and the location to the beach was a short walk. Our only issue was that I had read about the noise from the traffic, as you are right on a busy road. I had purchased a small noise canceling machine to help with that, and it worked great for me and my husband but my daughter used music with headphones and she hardly slept. So, that is the only thing that might prevent us from renting this property again. If it was just myself and my husband we definitely would. We enjoyed walking the beach and going to over to John’s Pass areas for dinner, and also went to a free botanical garden, a little north in Largo. You are about an hour from Tampa, we had intended to go to the zoo there but ran out of time. It’s a nice location to bop around to a few different areas and check some things out. Overall our stay was good. The communication with the owners was excellent and they were very accommodating. It’s a perfect little gateway that is reasonably priced to enjoy the beach.
