Great Girlfriends trip!

Comfy beds and clean unit. Easy and friendly communication with homeowners, very responsive. Great location to walk to everything, but just a note - there is no beach view at all from this unit. Overall, we had a great time on our girl's weekend.

Very nice reno of an old beachfront property. Both beds comfy but the guest bed is very squeaky. Slept alone and just turning makes sound. Very responsive management and location great for beach and very easy walk to restaurants and stores.

perfect location, cute rental

We had the perfect experience staying in the Driftwood. The owner was on-site when we arrived a little early. He was very accommodating regarding parking. It was clean, and had everything we needed. Just a few steps to the beach and to a great restaurant. Convenient location for many things to do. Already booking our next stay!

Great Beach location

We very much enjoyed our stay at Driftwood it is like 150 ft from the beach and within easy walking distance to restaurants and stores The cottage is clean and there is plenty of room for 2 couples plus . Kitchen is well equipped with whatever you will need for cooking and the beds are comfortable. And the new A/C and ceiling fans keep the place cool in the Florida heat. I would stay here again and hope to as soon as time allows😊

Family trip.

My wife and I took our three kids here and everything was nice but it’s definitely a little small for 5 people. Claimed it was 1500 sq. Ft and I don’t think there is any chance it is much over 900. They must be including the outdoor “pool” area. Clean and comfy by all means but a little false advertising on the size listed.

First time to Clearwater

Pros: The beach house was almost right on the water! Easy access to the beach and to all the other fun sights. The house was clean and nicely stocked with everything we needed. JR was incredibly nice and accommodating. • The pictures of the house online is not actually what is there in real life. The living room furniture is different and there is a twin bed in the living room. Cons: The house was incredibly hot, we had the air turned down, all ceiling fans on, went and purchased more fans and was still sweating. •All in all we had a good time!

Clean Property. Great Location.

We booked Spring Break late and were happy to find Driftwood Cottage on VRBO. We rent a ton, so this review is in comparison to others we've stayed at and would have been a 5 if not for this stuff. The rate is pretty high for what you get, paying for location because you are a few steps from the beach and a few blocks from restaurants. The pictures are either old or from a similar unit, but bathroom (shower) picture is not accurate, they are directionally correct. The unit was very clean, but had a damp musty smell to it that we couldnt quite shake even turning up AC (might just be FL). It is pretty noisy when people are in the unit above walking around and as ground floor unit, you have to always have the blinds closed becasue people walk directly at eye level along length of unit.. The pool area furniture is getting very worn and could use a refresh, but the small pool was nice to have after a day out. JR and Susan were responsive, but we found communication and payment confusing with Evolve property mgmt and we didn't appreciate a $100 fee to check in/out early to accommodate for cleaning. Plus, all communication comes from Evolve, and it isn't exaclty clear, so we had another couple walk into our unit out of confusion. It's a nice area, but there are a ton of rentals and resort options. It worked for myself and my daughter booking late and we loved the Clearwater area, but we will likely try a different option next time.

4/10 Poor

Dustin D.

Loud and surrounded by other units.

This rental was on the beach, but unfortunately it is crammed in and surrounded by other buildings. There's also a unit directly above this one and the guests have to walk right outside your bedroom to get to their unit. So this means having windows or doors open is not really an option, not that there were many you could have open anyway. Because of this we weren't able to let the cool night air in. You have to rely on ceiling fans blowing directly on you or the air conditioners to cool things off, but they are very loud. I have split ductless air conditioning in my home and it's whisper quiet compared to these. Being this close to other units also led to there being a lot of noise, both with people talking right outside the bedrooms and hearing people walking loudly above you. The beds were also just okay. One was a very soft memory foam that you sank into and the other was very firm and squeaky. On the plus side the unit had quick access to the beach, so you could walk out and see the ocean or take a short walk to nearby restaurants. But overall we weren't thrilled with the lack of privacy and noise issues, therefore I do not recommend this unit to others.

Easy access to everything

We were looking for a beach location for our family of 5 and this was the perfect fit. Super easy to get to the beach, easy to get to restaurants and shops. Sleeping arrangements were easy with a twin in the living room, a twin trundle under it, and a full/queen in the two bedrooms. There were some beach things to use, but the umbrella and one of the chairs weren't great. Ended up just folding the umbrella down and not using it. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Beach Weekend

I stayed at Driftwood over Labor Day weekend. It was the perfect place. The apartment has comfortable beds and is well-equipped with anything one might need for a fun beach weekend. It is only few yards from the beach and within easy walking distance of various restaurants and bars - did not need the car once during the weekend. The check-in was as easy as it could be, and owner was very responsive. I highly recommend Driftwood for anyone looking for a great weekend on the beach.
