My wife and were taking a little four day trip arriving at Tampa airport. Having been to Anna Maria several years ago, we decided to return since we liked it so much. I did not want to book a place to stay ahead of time though since I did not want to lose any money if for some reason our... more

We recently stayed at the pirates den for 5 days with my wife and two children in unit 3 and my parents in a cottage. We have ABSOLUTELY NO complaints and lots of praise for the Pirates Den and the proprietors, Dave and Maree. Pirates Den is across a litely travelled street from the beach, around the corner from the... more

A group of seven family members stayed in apts. 1&3 . We felt absolutely welcomed by the owners, Dave and Maree. They were so genuinely friendly and full of info about area restaurants and attractions! The rooms were spacious and clean; there were bbq grills available complete with utensils just outside by the pool. In the screened sitting area by... more

The Pirate's Den is truly the old Florida style. The entire stay was so relaxing we didn't want to leave. We stayed in apts. 1 and 3, and the rooms were inviting and super clean. The Proprietors, Dave and Maree, were so friendly and hospitable, seemed as if we had known them for years. We will definately go back! M.... more

I was rather disconcerted about a review I read recently concerning one of our favorite places to visit. Yes, we all have our own opinions, but I felt the review was worth writing my opinion.

It is just a short block to the beach; it has a pool; it is clean and the units are well furnished and the owners are absolutely delightful. The draw for me is that this... more

My husband and I have just returned from our 2nd holiday to Anna Maria Island and both times we have stayed at Pirates Den. We stayed there last year in Cottage No.5. It was perfect for us, clean, spacious and with a nice private patio area. This year we returned to the island for our honeymoon (as we fell in... more

My girlfriend and I stayed here a few months ago and I haven’t had time to write but now I do. Our room was just O.K. it could have been little cleaner. It was not quite what we pictured and not as close to the beach as we thought. It was quite difficult having to drag all our beach paraphernalia... more

My family & I stayed at the Pirates Den for 1 week in June. We had a great time. I chose this place because of the location & other reviews. We stayed in apt. 1 (2bed./1bath). The size was perfect for us(2 adults/1child). We enjoyed the pool. The beach was a short distance & not a busy road to cross.... more
