My stay at Beachview Cottages was generally enjoyable, with a charming, old Florida vibe and friendly staff that made me feel right at home. However, I did find the mattresses and pillows uncomfortable, which impacted my sleep. The lovely location near the beach and well-kept grounds made up for some of the downsides, but I believe some areas could use improvement, particularly considering the higher nightly rates.

My stay at Beachview Cottages brought both great moments and a few disappointments. The location near the beach was fantastic, allowing for quick access to the sand and surf. Although our cottage was spacious and had a nice old Florida charm, I encountered some cleanliness issues that detracted from my overall experience. The staff was helpful and friendly, which made my stay more enjoyable despite these challenges.

While the cottage was spacious and had a charming old Florida feel, I did notice that the quality of the room was lacking, and unfortunately, I discovered fleas in our unit. The fridge was an odd half-size, which was a bit inconvenient for our meal prep.

I appreciated having a well-equipped kitchen in our cottage to prepare meals, which was great for our family. We enjoyed dining out a couple of times, especially the hibachi experience at Sundial, but having the option to cook was convenient.

The pool area was basic but enjoyable. I did notice some maintenance issues, like overspray from repairs affecting our shoes left outside. However, I appreciated the outdoor grilling option which added to the family-friendly feel of the place.

I enjoyed my stay at Beachview Cottages, with its charming old Florida feel just steps from the beach. The cottage was clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything I needed. While the WiFi was a bit sketchy, it wasn't a big deal since I wanted to disconnect anyway. Overall, it was a lovely experience that I would happily repeat.

I had a mixed experience at Beachview Cottages. The proximity to the beach was fantastic, and I appreciated the clean accommodations and friendly staff. However, the room quality was below my expectations, and I noticed some issues that detracted from my overall stay. The amenities were basic, which might not suit families seeking more comprehensive options.
