Two Night Anna Maria Stay

We enjoyed our stay in Anna Maria Island. The property was clean and matched the pictures. The property was near a very nice beach at the end of the road and close to restaurants and shopping. Cindy was a great host and made sure we had no issues during our stay.

A Perfect Island Getaway!

We had the absolute best time staying at Cindy’s place on Anna Maria Island! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed from beach towels and chairs to a fully equipped kitchen. Every detail made it feel like a true home away from home.The location was ideal; just a short stroll to the beach, and close to cute shops, restaurants, and the free trolley stop. We loved spending our mornings on the porch with coffee and our evenings watching the breathtaking sunsets just a few minutes away.Cindy was a fantastic host; responsive, kind, and genuinely committed to making our stay perfect. You can tell she takes pride in her property and cares about her guests’ experience. It’s rare to find that level of hospitality!We’re already dreaming about coming back and would 100% recommend this gem to anyone looking for a relaxing, memorable stay on Anna Maria Island. Thank you, Cindy, for sharing your beautiful slice of paradise with us!

We really enjoyed our weekend stay!! The cottage is super clean and cute! Backyard sitting in the evenings is the best. The cottage has everything you need, just bring a bathing suit!! Beds are comfortable, we slept very well. Close to the beach, restaurants and shops. This was my first trip to AMI but it won’t be my last and I’d definitely stay here again.

Lots of towels, two king beds with excellent mattresses, and a large back yard with lounge chairs, a grill and comfy screened porch. Contact with and instructions from the hostess were outstanding.

Phenomenal location & owner

Cindy was the best host we’ve ever encountered. She is so accommodating and communicative. She made our trip so easy! The location is perfect, just a few minutes walk to the beach or the bay, a couple blocks over from all of the shopping and restaurants on Pine Street and just down the street from a trolley stop. She has all the amenities for making the beach trip easy & comfortable…a wagon to hold the chairs, an umbrella, a cooler and all of your bags. I would highly recommend!
