About this house rental
"The Fiddler Crab" is a beachfront cottage on the private and secluded St. Teresa Beach. St. Teresa is three miles of sprawling sugar sand on one of Florida's 41 aquatic preserves. Named "The Forgotten Coast"—this is truly one of the few unspoiled remaining hidden gems of Florida's coast!
The beach and the Gulf are just steps out the door from this modern, coastal cottage. The home features 2 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, an open concept living space and an outdoor shower. As you enter the home you are greeted by a large gathering space with sweeping views of the water and beach. The kitchen features quartz counter tops, stainless steel appliances, and an island for guests to congregate. Ocean mist lower cabinets, boat cleat cabinet pulls, and ship lap walls give the room a coastal flair. Adjacent to the kitchen is the dining space with a large glass table that seats up to eight people and a large buffet for serving. The sitting area has a sleeper sofa as well as two accent chairs—a great place to gaze out onto the water and watch the world go by.
Next to the living space are two bedrooms each with their own en-suite bathroom. A third full size bath is adjacent to the kitchen as well. The guest room has 2 futons that makes into 2 full beds as well as a single bunk bed so this room offers sleeping for up to five guests. The master suite offers a king size bed and reading nook. The spacious master bath has two side by side sinks, a large shower, and direct access to the outdoor shower.

My wife said her birthday trip to this space was “wonderful and wouldn’t change a thing about our trip away”

Fun time at the beach. Fiddler Crab was great for our family. Enjoyed the evening sunsets and walks on the beach. Overall the house was in good clean condition. Could use a few updates outside several screens were torn, back could use a good pressure washing but overall great place to stay. Inside as clean and updated! Would stay again for sure.

Upon arrival the house seemed fine. However, when we went to get in bed the first night we found sheets that were not clean (blood on master sheets) and sand/dirt in all the other beds, with no additional sheets in the house. I called the three numbers listed on the checkin email and left a voicemail with our house manager, and messaged them on the app. Around 36 hours later I received a call asking if I needed sheets. I declined since we had to wash everything the night we got in.
Tuesday night after showering I noticed that my blonde hair was now a terrible shade of orange and some of our clothes had been ruined in the washer. I messaged the manager and she said said she would let the owner know. The owner called and spoke with my husband who walked him through some steps to make sure the filter would come on that night at the well. The water was still terrible the remainder of our stay.
We also had issues with our garbage can. The information we received strictly said to only use the can by the road at our driveway. Well the can was there the first day and on the 2nd day it had a lock that required a key to dispose of the garbage. I spoke with the manager and she said she would find out what was going on and would call me back. I never received a call. Two days later I called her and she said I was supposed to use the can at the other driveway because the owner owns both houses. I’m not sure how we were supposed to know that. Overall, I would not recommend this place!
