Anniversary Trip
Our short stay was amazing. The accommodations were wonderful for a short stay, for a longer stay a cooktop would be nice. Little harbor is quiet and peaceful. Location was great. Short walk to a beautiful sunset.

Beautiful View
You couldn't ask for a more beautiful view of the water out your window. There is a restaurant with live music in walking distance. Park right in front of your room so parking is nice.

Get away
We live in the bay area and this was the perfect get away to sit and watch boats go by. A beautiful flamboyant tree was in full bloom. Conveniently located walking distance to a small beach and a nice restaurant. Enjoyed beautiful sunsets.

Good stay
My wife and I liked the room. Not many frills but parking was right outside our door and the water was right there as well. Had coffee with the local dolphin twice in three days. The room was very clean. The only downside was the location. It's fairly far off the path from most touristy things but we knew that before we booked.

Liked: Check-in, communication
Saga of no door code
My wife and I rented a room to attend our friend's wedding. A few days before, I accessed the web site and asked for our check in instruction(s) and a "form letter" email informed me that another email with all our info would be forthcoming. That didn't happen. When we were on the property we are still trying to get someone to reply through the web site. We could not get access to the room so we had to get prepared for the wedding in the parking lot in the car. Suffice it to say my wife was not pleased. About an hour an a half later at the wedding reception I got the email with the door code. So, at least we got a night's sleep. The room was ok - towels, bathroom seemed clean. The wedding and friends were great but we were glad to be on our way home the next morning. Not the service I would expect for the $$$.

Alles wirklich top! Zimmer sehr groß und sauber! Betten groß und bequem. Badezimmer ebenfalls sauber und großzügig. Lage ist einfach perfekt. Supermarkt nur mit Auto erreichbar. Jeden Morgen sind Delfine vor der Haustür. Das Restaurant Hooks, was in der „Siedlung“ ist, ist teuer. Daher lieber woanders essen. Waschmaschine sowie Trockner draußen vor der Tür da. Kaffee im Zimmer genug vorhanden. Es sind sogar Badehandtücher vorhanden. Der Aufenthalt hier war ein Traum für uns. 2 Tage waren uns zu wenig für die tolle Unterkunft. Parken kostenlos vor der Tür des Zimmers. Man bekommt 1-2 Tag vorher eine Info wegen Reservierung. Da steht die Adresse und die Zimmernummer in der Adresszeile. Erst wenn das Zimmer an dem Check in Tag fertig gereinigt wurde, bekommt man den Code für das Zimmer.

Perfect for our need
We were down for the Outback Bowl and didn’t want to stay in Tampa. It was close enough. Very very clean and no issues. Quiet neighborhood and lots of places to go walk. Eating places within walking distance. We would stay here again.

Lacking
The location was great and the host Lorraine was exceptional. The only thing that bothered me was the lack of up to date technology. There was really no place to charge phones or laptops. I know there are lamps that have plug-ins in the base to charge devices. Other than that, we would definitely stay there again !

Inn at Little Harbor = location excellence
The location is awesome, the beach, the view. The room was not representative of the photos online which was noted on the website they may not be. Being an older unit, outlets are seriously limited and lighting and tv remote were not clear cut. The bath towels need updating. I let the property manager know and she was aware. If it were me, I would leave a supply of thick bath towels, hand towel and face cloths (say 2 per person).

Great place to stay, all the amenities galore!
We loved our stay. The host was extremely responsive and description of the place and amenities were perfect. Having the marina and docks near by was great as we towed a boat down. Really happy with our stay and would recommend to anyone.
