Fantastic hideaway

So friendly. Great experience. Loved our little cabin. The pool area was nice as well and we would sit in the water at sun down. Hope to get back there.

A quick weekend getaway

We had a lovely relaxing stay. Our cottage was very pretty and big enough for our needs. It has a lovely small yard for our little dog. It is surprisingly private and quiet. The pool was lovely. The dock is so peaceful and a surprising little oasis. We loved our stay.

Exceeded our expectations. We were in a remodeled cottage. Bigger than I thought it would be. With one queen bed and full kitchen and pull out sofa and nice big bathroom.. So cute and clean with an outdoor little patio area with privacy fencing. Pull right up to your front door. Ice and snacks in the office for cheap. Cute clean pool. Not crowded Fishing pier with covered shady areas. So nice! Nice owners!

Loved the cottage feel. Great kitchen and amenities. Definitely stay there again.

Cute little cottages. Wonderful pier Beautiful pool Nice kitchen Just rebuilt from the hurricane

this was our 1st time there and we loved it!! The owners and their staff were very helpful and polite. We will definitely go back.

Great get away. Private dwellings are very, very hard to find. We noticed everything was recently updated and in great shape. Low key atmosphere and hanging out on the river front deck made this an awesome place to stay

We enjoy coming here every year. It's very relaxing and we love having our own cottage when we come to visit the grandkids. I don't want to say too much more because I don't want it to be sold out next time I come! Seriously though, it's a great setting.

Nice place to relax. Grandkids enjoyed fishing from the dock.

Nice cozy cottages with access to river activities. Easy to get to. Quiet.

Cute cottage in Ruskin, Fl

We stayed in 1835. The decor was so cute! We loved sitting down by the water on the areas they had for guest to relax. They only improvement was a more comfortable couch for the living room. We were busy during the day but wanted to watch tv to relax at night. The room itself was clean especially the bathroom. We really enjoyed our stay.

Nice owners , beautiful inside cabins and pool

Great Local Family Owned and Operated Bungalows

Pirate's Pointe Resort was the perfect location for us while visiting family nearby! This cozy bungalow felt very "Florida" in the best way, bright colors and beautiful lush landscaping. We also really enjoyed being able to walk out on the dock to view the beautiful surrounding areas on the water. Owners Tammie and Tom go above and beyond in making sure your stay is comfortable and even made an effort to check in with us during our stay. You can tell that they put a lot of effort and care into this local family owned and operated establishment. We would definitely stay here again when in town.

Beautiful and quiet property. Nice view of the river. The owners are very accommodating. Would stay there again.

Beautiful landscaping and dock with ample seating around the property. Cozy and clean. Everything we needed. We hope to return.

Tropical paradise

The cabin and it’s grounds was clean as a whistle!

Hidden Gem

We found our new family spot for vacations. Absolutely BEAUTIFUL place. Room was super clean and homey. Pool was clean and perfect temperature. They whole resort was very well kept and clean. The owners were incredibly kind! They're the kind of people that would give you the shirt off their backs. I can't brag enough. Already booked our next stay.

Beautiful

We a great time.... the location was perfect, we went fushing off the dock it was so peaceful and relaxing. The pool was so nice with a waterfall and decorated so nice. The landscaping was beautiful. We will definitely return.

Always cute, clean, quiet!

All was good 👍

Lovely cottage right on the river.

Our stay was wonderful. We were in the one-bedroom cottage right by the river. It was a beautifully decorated place, clean, nicely furnished, and the kitchen was well-stocked with dishes, pots and pans, cutlery, etc. PLUS there was a wonderful private patio and a big shade tree. All our good intentions for getting out on Saturday were lost as we relaxed out there! After a hectic week, it was lovely to kick back and enjoy the peace and quiet.

We stayed here 2 nights and absolutely loved the serene quiet environment. There is a beautiful pool and also a nice quit deck on the river with plenty of seating options. The rooms were super clean, newly decorated with everything you need. Tammy and Tom were very nice hosts and do a great job making you feel welcome. I would stay here again.

Toilet didn’t flush well

Very good, but one light not working and the other light needed a light bulb minor things that a guest should not have to tend to.

Adorable cottage!

The cottage was perfect very clean and quiet. We had a one bedroom and the outside patio is large I highly recommend the place for a couple.

Relaxing, super clean cottage!

Exactly as promised. Fully handicapped accessible. Very comfortable in terms of the sleeping surface and temperature. The heating and cooling unit was very quiet, quick and efficient. Super pool, heated and SO clean! Full kitchen and well stocked with pots, pans, utensils. Super responsive hosts, on the property or available all the time. Would come again, and hope to!

Very private alternative then staying in a hotel. Cottages are adorable. We had 1 minor issue with our stay but Lynn was amazing at customer service and helped us out immediately

I would recommend this place to all. Third is my second time here and like before I enjoyed it all. Very nice host and always helpful.

My husband and I had such a peaceful mini vacation here! Clean and super cute cottages, Will definitely be back!

The perfect peaceful getaway. Comfy bed, clean and well-maintained. We’ll return when we have more time.

Fun time had by all!

What a wonderful, unique and beautiful property! We rented a whole cabin for 4 of us, which was perfect! Spacious, quiet, staff were so friendly and there was great communication about the check in process. We arrived a bit late, but that was no problem at all! Lovely facilities around the property with access to a water down on the docks and a lovely swimming pool as well. And they even had the first cup of coffee for you in the cabin!

Very well maintained cute cottages. Perfect amount of space fro a very quiet getaway. Secluded yet close to businesses and restaurants. Quiet solitude

Loved this place. Our cottage was clean and comfortable. Love the dock so relaxing. Pool is just the right temperature. Everything about this place was great. Way better than a hotel

Porate's Pointe Resort

The little cottages were recently remodelled. They were adorable. There is a nice pool and a pontoon available for guests to use. There are deep sea fishing easily available on site. The resort was not in the city nor near city activities but there is plenyy of restaurants and activities near by!!!

My FAVORITE stay of our trip! This property was amazing my only negative is that I wish we could have stayed longer than two days. The staff was friendly. The pool was fabulous. Our room was perfect, clean, and quiet, and had a bonus rooftop patio that was great. Do not let the trailer park ( it was a nice one ) scare you. This is a gated oasis on the water. A true gem.

This was a nice property by the water. I took a walk to the dock and got to enjoy some birds. The parkling is convenient right outside the cottage. I was called multiple times regarding check nn. This is a practice some properties use in order to not staff the office. It is not my favorite. I arrived at the property between 6 and 7 pm on a Friday. The office was closed. I went to check in at 815 Saturday morning and no one was at the office. I had to interrupt my visit with family to return to the property in the afternoon in order to sign paperwork. I checked out very early Sunday morning.

Pirate's Point

Check in was smooth and easy. The resort had an ice cooler with a bag per day per guest which we really liked. Entire resort was clean and kept up. Rooms were cozy and when our light bulb in the kitchen went out we went dow to the office and it was fixed when we returned to thw room later

When I visit the area, I look first for whether this property is available. It is always clean, cute, comfortable and quiet. My dogs are happy and safe here, using the fenced patio. The folks who run the property are friendly, and it is evident how hard they work to make sure everything is right for their guests. Recommend this little oasis wholeheartedly!

Amazing stay!! Very peaceful, everyone so pleaseant and helpful. 4th time there , each stay was great.

Mediocre at best. Friendly office staff until you have a question or concern.

Think Twice before Booking at Pirate's Pointe

I feel compelled to write a review to potentially save others from some trouble and money. The motel itself is in a decent location and appears quaint. The trouble I had was with the owner and the way this property is managed. I booked a room for a few nights several months in advance for my mother, my niece and myself. I then tried canceling a week after booking due to an extreme circumstance and gave the hotel 2 months notice. The hotel refused a refund and told me the reason is because I blocked others from being able to book, even though I only held on to the room for a week. If you book at this resort and need to cancel for any reason, regardless of your situation, regardless of how much notice you give, you will still be charged full price. The owners lack professionalism, empathy and understanding. It was a nightmare communicating with them and I would not recommend this place especially if you are from out of town. I LOVE to support small businesses and entrepreneurs, but unfortunately, this one is not good and you would be better off sticking with a chain hotel. This motel kept my money for a service that I did not recieve. Don't let the same happen to you, beware and think twice!

We truly enjoyed our stay here we caught 2 big snooks and a huge red fish. Everyone was friendly, easy check in. Bed was comfortable, will definitely stay again!

Excellent stay

Our stay was excellent. The cottage was nice and clean. The bed was comfy. The staff was so nice to us. Lynn was so helpful with my last minute stuff. Fishing charter was set up by lynn and the captain was excellent too. We met the owners they were so kind. Even the other guest that were staying there was so friendly. We will definitely be back!

This place is such a gem and we are so happy we came across it! The character of the property is one of a kind and so peaceful! We definitely will be back for a future visit!

This property is so cute and serene! Feels like home away from home.

My stay was terrible. The room smelt so bad I couldnt sleep. Ants coming out of the drain in the kitchen, constantly. I actually left early do to the terrible sulfer smell. As a construction manager for 30 years Im aware that Chinese drywall which was used in remodels and new cotruction from 2005 and later when it gets old it distributes a very bad sulfer smell which is very ensafe. Since my stay was cut short I would like to negotiate some kind of refund please. I'm sorry for the negative review but I would hate to see someone else have to deal with this on there vacation as well. I hope to hear back from someone soon.

Hidden gem. Quiet getaway with tons of amenities. Close proximity to beaches, dining, and grocery stores. Highly recommend this place. Great place to fish, chill on the dock or do some kayaking, canoeing and stand-up paddleboard.

Weekend getaway

Clean room. Wi-Fi very spotty. Quiet peaceful neighborhood. Near parks and good food .

There was popcorn under couch could of been a little cleaner you and husband were great

Quiet & Cozy!!

Great location, updated cottage and clean, lovely pool, quiet surroundings. We loved our stay. The dock was delightful. We hope we will be able to stay here again.

Cute little cottage style studio!

Beautiful location, comfortable updated cottage, lovely, clean pool, quiet surroundings. Perhaps add hairdryer, trash bags, and ironing board, but very minor details and we didn’t ask if they had these things. We loved our stay. The dock was delightful. I hope we will be able to stay here again.

Very quiet

The cottage was cute & parking right outside. It was a bit dirty (stained stools) but it was no big deal. The staff was really nice, I would stay there again.

Well maintained clean property. Quiet area.

What an amazing vacation at our gem of a find. Tom and Tammy are the absolute best. My family and I loved it here. Everyone was so nice and friendly. We met great people that were staying here as well. I'm going back as soon as I can!

Nice having you own cute cottage! Plenty of towels soaps &etc. quiet…

My second stay at the property. Fantastic vibe! Friendly and helpful people, quiet and shady property, clean, cute and comfortable cottages. Plus, my dogs give it two paws up!!

Property was nice pool was great. There were bed bugs in all beds and maybe the sofa and chairs.We all got bit up and have bite marks all over. The head boards were not attached to wall or beds in the twin beds.

Nice and cozy

Thank you so much for making me feel right at home! Friendly check-in, lovely and quiet cottage. Everything was perfect.

Secluded, quite retreat.

When traveling i love little nostolgic secluded little places rhat carry their own vibe. And this is it a small slice of paradise. Clean. Beautiful landscaping. Peaceful. Great stay for a last minute trip.

Great, secluded, friendly

Our stay at Pirate's Pointe was amazing! It was clean, private, and welcoming. I've already booked my next trip back!

Very quiet and peaceful! Clean rooms and great tropical landscaping. Can’t wait to go back!

Quiet location with nice landscaping

Beautiful property and cute small homes to stay in with access to waterway if you bring a boat. We got upgraded to a recently refurbished home with rooftop access but is useless for view or usage. Bathroom tile very slippery after shower, rug was not made for bathroom as they slid after floor was wet. Safety hazzard there for those not sure on their feet. Mattress was terrible and kitchen was stocked with necessary items but non stick would do wonders for cooking abilities. Area had no options for dining out, had to drive outside Ruskin to get food.

A great place to just get away and relax. The cottage we stay in was adorable, very clean. The pool area was quiet and very clean. Had a great stay!! The management is very helpful with information when asked.

We LOVED our stay. What a find—so relaxing, charming, friendly, and accommodating. I was so glad to have found Pirate’s Pointe. If we were boat owners, it would be just about perfection, as it is set up so perfectly for them. Since we are landlubbing beach goers, it was mainly just a night’s rest for us rather than the point of our recreation. And we loved it.

We liked having our own small house basically. It had a small community feel and everyone there working and staying we’re nice. I also enjoyed that pets were allowed (even though we hadn’t brought ours) and they were all friendly. The cat roaming around enjoyed being loved in and didn’t over stay it’s welcome. They got us into our room 3 hours before normal check-in, which was very nice and helpful. The electric outlets were loose in some areas. 1 didn’t have a cover but it was behind the headboard of the bed. Only 1 tv but you’re supposed to be spending time outside not in. They had outdoor activities but no vending machines for late night snacks so plan ahead. If using maps, go down 19th street not 18th. Ours corrected itself after 3-4 times returning.

This is a beautifully serene location nestled on the river. Very nice cottages with a patio sitting area attached. Nicely landscaped property. All of this sits on the river for kayaking, canoeing or fishing. You feel very welcomed from the moment you are arrive.

The owners are very friendly and take time to make sure you have what you need. The cottages are very cute and clean. They make you feel like you are home

Pirates Point was AMAZING

I liked the location on the river, room cleanliness, the staff was efficient and friendly. I wasn't aware that there was no daily housekeeping. I would stay there again.

liked everything about the resort... location, look and feel of Old Florida, on the water [river, not gulf] , pet-friendly, updated interior, wi-fi, flat screen, terrific family amenities... heated pool, etc. Most of all, we loved the mattress - super comfortable. Sadly, the only thing we did NOT like was the 'weather' !! it was in the 40's, but not fault of owners...gladly return in future.
