The cottage was definitely beautiful, a perfect getaway with a short walk to the beach and plenty of nearby areas to explore. The only downside was that the pool wasn’t heated, even though it was advertised as such. Unfortunately, we couldn’t really enjoy it because the water was a bit chilly. I later found out that heating the pool costs extra and needs to be arranged in advance. Overall, it’s a lovely place to stay, just make sure to specify ahead of time if you want the pool heated.

We enjoyed our time at Harmony House. The location is perfect for a short walk to the beach and a quick drive to local restaurants. The house is updated so the bathrooms and bedrooms are clean and cozy. The pool was fun for our children to play in too. It would’ve been nice to have had some extra things that we typically have in VRBO homes like a few seasonings, cooking supplies (coffee, etc), more than a few trash bags and one laundry detergent, books, a beach umbrella, etc. Other than that it’s a great spot if you’re looking to visit Anna Maria!

Property and house is beautiful! It was clean and the pool and screened porch were a perfect addition. We utilized both of these a lot. There was only two kitchen trash bags (cheap- they ripped easily) and one packet for laundry detergent. I wish there was at least one extra of these. It’s a short walk (3-5minutes) to the beach from the house through a nice little trail. The house is a different color than pictured. Overall, enjoyed it very much! Would recommend.

3-4 min walk to Bean Point! Book this now!

Wow! Amazing house with pool super close to Bean Point!Completely remodeled after 2024 hurricanes! New carpet, new everything. The pots and pans in the cupboard still have labels on them. Yes, there are some sand toys, 2 beach chairs and pool noodles in outdoor storage box. We left a large tube/ donut ring float for you to enjoy. A few puzzles but no kids toys. Plenty of coffee filters, no salt or pepper. Comfy beds. NO BUGS Did not use the pool as too many mosquitos, just so much rain this year. Amazing sunsets, eat at The Porch & The Water Front. Great breakfast at North Shore Cafe & toasted Mango. Be sure to have an ice cream at General Store on Pine.

Great cottage in amazing location

We have been going to Anna Maria for three years now and each year it gets better. The house was super comfortable with everything we needed and worth more space than what we expected. Walking to the beach was super easy with the kids and the pool though small was enough. The only “but” of our stay was the pool temperature that by no means was as warm as promised and the alarm that leads outside from the back covered porch that is super annoying because you can’t stop it from going on from the outside. Other than that we would surely repeat our stay!

Only complaint is that we could not use the pull out sofa as there were no sheets. I contacted the local property manager by email with no response.

A Beautiful Getaway!

The beach cottage was very nice and comfortable. I loved that it was close to the beach. A very beautiful beach. It was very clean and had a wonderful kitchen to cook meals. We walked to beach several times a day. Awesome sunsets. So close to beach access. We had enough space for 7 ladies. The pool was very relaxing. The Wi Fi was not working during our stay. We could not watch tv. We had some trouble getting into house as code did not work. We called and they helped us get inside. Looking forward to going back! Awesome vacation!

Family Weekend Getaway

This property is wonderful, and we were pleasantly surprised by the spaciousness of the house. Our two adult daughters, along with their husband and boyfriend shared this property with my husband and I for the weekend. For six adults, there was more than enough space. The layout of the house is perfect. The location of the property is terrific, for walking to the beach or biking/walking to local restaurants. The neighborhood is very quiet. We enjoyed the pool and beautifully landscaped backyard. The screen porch was the perfect place to have coffee in the morning, enjoy meals, and work on a puzzle. The grill was so clean and we prepped a delicious dinner using the grilling area/tools provided. We rented bikes from Beach Bums and had lots of fun pedaling around the island! There were plenty of beach toys at the house, if you have kids that might enjoy those. There were two beach chairs in the beach supplies, but one was broken….so for six of us….we only had one very “light-weight” beach chair. If you are looking to spend hours on the beach, sitting comfortably, a beach chair rental would be a must. Beach Bums is a convenient place to rent beach chairs. The other thing that would be handy for a family at this rental is a beach cart….not sure how a young family would get kids and beach supplies to the beach without a beach wagon. I would highly recommend this property. We would return again!

5 star except for one thing

We loved the property. It was spacious. There was an extra little room that we used for the baby to sleep in. It was clean. The walk to the beach wasn't far. And the cocktail pool was just perfect! The only real issue was that the owner scheduled landscaping to be done while we were there. It was all day long and noisy so the baby couldn't really nap. It was in the backyard so we didn't feel comfortable using the pool. We had made this reservation December 30 so the owner had approximately 4 1/2 months notice that we would be there to block out a different day. The only other suggestion I would make is to have a high chair on property. But, now that the landscaping is done, people probably won't have those issues.

A great Home For Our Getaway

We chose this house because it was literally a 5 minute walk to the beach, had a private pool, and it is located in a very quiet part of the island. After our stay, the only downside was dealing with the management company. The Good... First, you technically only have to cross one street to get to the beach and traffic there is almost non-existant. There is a city-owned beach access alley that runs between a couple of the nearby houses and will take you all the way there. I highly suggest you bring a wagon because if you have kids or a lot of beach gear it'll just make your life easier. Next, the pool. It is a small pool that is about 4.5ft deep at the deepest part. I don't know about cramming 6 or more adults in there but for my wife and 2yr old it was absolutely perfect. It is private and the plants and trees around it made it more special. Finally, this is a very quiet part of the island. It's all residential but you're still only half a mile from the nearest shops. I highly recommend renting a golf cart while you are staying because it was much easier (and fun) to get around. There is very limited parking and there are lots of other golf carts and pedestrians so having a golf cart makes things so much better. The Bad... This house is managed by Vacassa and I don't know if the following is typical of them or not. First, we were notified the first day of our arrival that roof inspectors would be there to check the roof and we didn't have to stick around for that. We were offered by the Guest Service Manager a "meal on Vacassa up to $20 a person" for the inconvenience. Guess what....sent the receipt and then....crickets. Even sent another email a couple days after the first one...crickets again. Second, a random tech showed up while we were swimming and began working on fixing a toilet issue among other things. The tech was nice and it wasn't an inconvenience but no one told us they were coming. Finally, the cleaning person showed up 30 min before our checkout time and it made us feel rushed to get out. It was just uncomfortable even though they didnt nothing wrong. Side note: we thought there was black mold on the main bedroom ceiling. The Guest Service Manager said a tech looked at it and claimed it was dust. I hope they were right but I dont know why it wouldn't have been dealt with before people rented it out.

The home is perfect and well equipped with everything you need to enjoy . The only very frustrating issue is the Internet/Wifi connections. We spent the entire stay struggling to watch tv or hear music due to horrible reception.

Fantastic Location

House is in a quiet neighborhood just a short drive from restaurants and just over a 5 minute walk to beach, which was great. The area is beautiful, loved the beach. There were some previous reviews that stated the house had everything you need - that's not necessarily true. If you plan on having 6-8 people, you're going to need to bring linens and pillows. The kitchen had a few items, but not a great selection of cookware and no hand soap to be found. The pool is very small, great for cooling off but that's about it. Driveway can accommodate 2 vehicles, but if you have larger SUVs it will be difficult as there is zero street parking allowed. Sent a few messages to owner, never heard back.
