Back to the beach
Walking through the door of the Two Waves Cottage in Gulfport, I was transported back to childhood; the freedom of summer vacation, with just your shorts and flip flops, and every day a chance to play on the beach. In fact, the local beach is just a short walk from the house. Along the way, I passed wonderful shops and restaurants that gave a feel of a sophisticated city neighbourhood, yet with the casual beach feel that told you, this is truly Florida. My visit was in April 2010, when tourists still came to the town, but they didn't overwhelm, and you had a chance to meet the "locals" with every walk to town. The cottage was a true home, with cool, comfy rooms and the handiness of a full kitchen, living room, and bathroom that make you feel so much more at home than at any hotel. Internet too! Sandi and Graham are friendly and helpful, and keen to point out the great parts of the town. I was lucky enough to be there for "Art walk"; artisans selling everything from hand-made jewelry to works of art, and I even bought a hand-made sun dress, with a tie-dye hoodie for those odd cool nights. Small town charm, with an eye on the outside - the legendary beaches of St Pete are a few minutes away by car. I have no complaints; perhaps it's not the place for someone interested in high-octane theme parks. Then again, with a car, those kind of attractions are a short drive away. Then you'll be "home" again, ready for a cool drink in the yard, then a walk to town for a satisfying meal, and a chance to see the sun set on a classic Florida beach. I'll be back, with friends in tow. And if I can't make it, I'll send someone; it is a truly relaxing and remarkable experience.
Stayed April, 2010
