Beautiful and clean house situated in an excellent location within steps to the beach and restaurants. The house was spacious, comfortable and decorated very tastefully. Communication with management was very easy; one morning after a storm, the elevator stopped working and it was fixed and taken care by the time we returned from the beach. Beachview Retreat is a lovely home and I would definitely recommend

Right next to the beach!!

This property was exactly where you want to be! Walking steps to the beach, eateries and so much more. I rented a golf cart and didn’t need it because everything was in walking distance. The house was a great set up for my family as well. Bedrooms were very spacious and the double bunk bed room was just fantastic for the kids to hang out. Kids was great can’t say enough about having a gas stove was a nice bonus! Downside was really just I wish they had a pool. Location to the beach eased this for sure but would be a great had for them.

Fabulously convenient, very clean, beautiful sunsets

We were pleasantly surprised to be so close to the beach. The house smelled wonderfully clean when we entered. The interior set up is excellent and convenient for having meals together while giving everyone their own space. The pictures and description were great, except that the third floor deck overlooks the bait store’s rear of the property and the Sandbar’s parking lot. It was neat and tidy but just unexpected. I did contact the host because the hot tub quit working and did not receive a reply until the next day when I tried to call and message them again because the elevator also stopped working. I would have liked a quicker response and to have someone available to answer the phones outside of normal business hours for non-emergency but urgent matters. Overall the property was great and we will cherish our memories there.

Anna Maria Island near Sandbar and Beach

Great location !!! Terrible chairs in kitchen and on deck . Beach umbrella coming apart. No soap in dispensers, instead tiny bars of soap for sink anshowers. Ice maker not working in fridge. Bought ice and it started to melt . Great location but a few small problems if corrected would have made our stay fantastic.

Great Property and location- perfect for beach lovers!

We loved staying in this property!! It was perfect for our annual girls trip of 6. So close to the beach, restaurants, convenience store and rental options. The home decor was beachy & fun. There was beach towels and chairs, a cute outdoor area on the ground level and decks with views of the ocean. The kitchen was well stocked with updated items. We did have trouble with the upper level air conditioning unit, however the management responded as soon as they received the message. There were ants in various areas of the house, again they sprayed immediately and it alleviated the problem. The beds and bedding were very comfortable and the bathrooms spacious. A few times it was a bit noisy as delivery trucks and daily garbage trucks serviced the nearby Sand Bar restaurant but didn't really bother our group. Overall it was a great property & we really enjoyed our stay!

Let me start with the location of the property. You are steps away from the beach, the best beach bar & restaurant and the Pine Street strip of restaurants and stores. The set up of the home with the upper level kitchen/great room and deck looking over the ocean was amazing. Very clean completely rennovated home was amazing. I'll be back again for sure.
