The best place we ever stay. Everything perfect, we cooked( that would be good having a Air Frier) we grilled, pool very well taking care, beach 2 blocks from the house. Nick( Handy Man) really nice guy. The beach free and amazing clean. Enough towers and even beach chairs. I even had a chance to meet Chris(Owner) We came in 6 and a dog. I definitely recommend millions of time. My family loved it, and for sure we’ll be back. Peace and enjoy.

Great little place in Holmes Beach!
We had a wonderful stay at the Crow's Nest. It is well laid out and well supplied. It was just my husband and I but loved that there were plenty of beach chairs and umbrellas for everyone staying at the property to use. The beach is super close and easy to access along with the island trolley. Such a cute little hideaway and we would definitely stay again!

Great property and location
My wife and ai spent a week at the property and we truly loved our experience. The property is steps away from a beautiful less crowded part of the beach and within walking distance to bars and restaurants. The unit was comfortable, clean, and everything on the description was provided. We look forward to coming back soon.

It was perfect for our family of 4 - the accommodations, the pool, the location, the distance to sights/stores/food. It truly had everything we needed. Very comfortable and felt like home. The free trolley up and down the island was very handy. We will be back!

We absolutely loved our stay at the Crows Nest! The beach was a very short walk away with local restaurants and pubs less than 1/2 mile away. We walked every where we needed to go. We ate in a lot so we were happy the kitchen was adequately supplied for our needs. We loved our stay!

We had an amazing low key week staying the in the Crows nest, it was perfect for myself and two boys (9 and 7) Great pool and short walk to the beach. My only complaint is the beds- they were really hard, one of my boys decided it was more comfortable to sleep on the couch! Will absolutely be staying here again!

Restful two weeks
First time staying here in the Crow’s Nest. Clean, convenient and close to everything. Went in late October so place was quiet; we had the pool to ourselves most of the time. Place is well maintained. Would like to go back next year

Fantastic week in the sun
The cottage was absolutely lovely, and so close to the beach access path. We loved using the pool and made good use of the beach equipment. Fantastic place for a couple. Definitely will be back!

Great property to spend the week. It was just the two of us so the property we rented fit us perfectly. The location is quiet, close to the beach, restaurants, etc. The onsite pool was very nice as well. We loved our stay and will be back again.

AMI vacation
We had a great time! For most of our stay their were 3 other couples there about our age. One night we all had a bar-b-que out at the pool besides swimming & going to the beach with them. The pool was warm & we were close to the beach, restaurants & shopping.

Almost perfect!
Great location, pleasant cottage feel in a quaint setting. Nice to have a deck in the Palm trees. I know the place is geared toward a family with kids but there were three adults traveling together. My 80 year old Mom got the comfortable bed. Unfortunately the other three options were really hard to sleep on. We got through it but I don’t think we would rent there again unless newer mattresses were provided. Such a bummer because we really, really liked the place otherwise! My Mom would rent this place again next year if there were better sleeping arrangements for us all!!!l

Crows nest
The unit was a super cute setup, my kids loved sleeping upstairs in the loft. The couches and pillows were very dirty and need a thorough cleaning, or replaced. They also could have used an area rug. Also, the overall cleanliness could have been better. There was dust on windowsills and ledges. Awesome location, short walk to a beautiful beach. Pool is super small and shared with other units.
