House was amazing, the location is perfect! There were a few minor things like the door to the pool from the house didn’t work, headboard to the master bed wasn’t attached, but overall it was awesome. When a random shower would come through, the convenience of a covered pool and hot tub was fantastic. Plenty of space for the 11 of us. We would absolutely come back again!

Worth the off season rate
I’m glad I got this property at the discounted rate. Although the view is perfect, it’s not worth the full price they ask. The place needs some sprucing up. The walls are dirty and the paint is chipping, the throw rugs are dirty, some bathrooms have mold and the dishes in the cabinet still had food on them. I took into consideration that it’s literally on a beach so it’s hard to stay clean but with some sprucing up it would be perfect.
It’s definitely spacious and worth the view. The check in checkout was convenient. Overall I would stay again but not at the full asking price.

Family get-together
Great location on beach and near main part of town. Front deck and covered pool area were great and used often. Previous user didn't do good job cleaning the glasses, silverware, etc. It was easier to rewash then call the agent. House is cozy but dated. Would have happily paid more if it was updated.

Incredible Gulf Front Big Yellow House
The Big Yellow House had amazing views of the Gulf. The sunsets were incredible from the decks or beach. The pool was a bonus. Located near the northern tip of Anna Maria, we walked to the northern point every morning! We found some great shells and intact sand dollars on our walks. The house is also located on Pine Street, the main street of commerce on Anna Maria, so we could walk to many shops and restaurants. On the downside, the house needed a bit of a "spring cleaning" from being a rental machine, but the views and overall stay made up for that and the house still deserves 5 stars. Would definitely book this house again!

Unacceptable termite infestation
We rent this property (104 Pine Avenue, Anna Maria, Florida) through VRBO on June 12th until June 16th. When we arrived at this property the house wasn't clean. We found tomato inside de microwave, mold over the showers and many dirty spaces. When we woke up next morning (today June 13th) at 6:00 am we discovered the master bedroom was infected by termites. There were termites running all over the king bed, all over our bodies and inside the bathroom. We contact Anna Maria Vacation rentals by phone and after 3 hours they offer us one property which was not on the beach and it looks very old, too.
We had to left the property and we lost our family holiday.

Big yellow house
The location of this house is ideal. The location right on the beach was very convenient. There were 14 of us and we all fit comfortably. Only problem was the house could have had more basic supplies like salt and pepper and oil and vinegar. Plus the deck really needs replacement and a sun awning. The kids loved the little pool as it was a shady place to relax. Loved the house!

Highlights of the property: location & the beautiful views. Steps to the Gulf.
Negative: The place needs a major cleaning. Two inches of dust on all blinds & ceiling fans. The biggest complaint I would share are the roaches crawling on the kitchen walls and floors. The front door was broken, couldn't lock when we went out, two sliding doors were broken. The kitchen refrigerator needs to be replaced. Did not keep our food cold. Garbage disposal didn't work and had a bad odor. Light bulbs missing from sockets. I contacted the rental company, that I must was was very attentive, but who wants all kinds of working men tramping around fixing everything while we are trying to enjoy ourselves. We were given a $100.00 gift card for Publix, but again after spending the money we did on this property I would think it would have been in better condition. Clothes from previous guests were still in bedroom drawers and items were found under all the dusty furniture. Mold is growing in all the showers. I went out and bought a bottke of bleach cleaner before using the showers.

Best Location you could ask for
This house is a bit dated and could use some upgrades but the location can't be beat. You can sit in the living room and see the beach and your family there as well. A few issues we had with the house: The upstairs living area can only be accessed by a spiral staircase; not ideal for small children. The downstairs refrigerator needs to be replaced. After placing a service call we figured out that you have to firmly make sure the doors shut every time you use it to keep it cold and it never really gets to temp. Also all 3 of the drawers were broken in some fashion.
The back deck is great but has some boards that need replacing as they are a trip hazard - also the umbrella for the table was bent in the middle and unusable.
There were some loose bricks laying around the pool area which again, for adults is not that big of a deal, but with smaller children it is a hazard - there was a hole in the corner where some of the bricks were.
We arrived at 4pm as instructed but the cleaning crew was still there cleaning. They allowed us to enter anyway but I could tell that the cleaning was a bit rushed.
The WIFI works but goes out REGULARLY. At least twice per day we had to unplug and reset the router.
The TVs are also dated - would recommend providing instructions for how to use them - the upstairs TV had like 7 remotes. Also some of those remotes were missing the backs, buttons weren't working, and some were even missing batteries. We had lots of rainy days so unfortunately we were stuck inside a bit. :)
Every single bathroom had at least one light blown out - easy replacement.
Lastly, and my biggest concern, was the main door to the house. It would not lock and if not blocked, it would blow open on its own. Multiple times we came back to the house to find the door wide open so we had to stage a case of water out in front of the door in order to make sure the small children didn't go outside of the home.
Overall we had a GREAT trip - loved the layout that very well worked for 2 families traveling together, but just not ideal for small children. The location honestly could not be beat and i would definitely rent this house again, but think that with the amount it cost, some of these small improvements should be made for future guests. I did call about the door issue and was told someone would come out but nobody ever did. I tried to call again multiple times but there was poor cell service so I eventually gave up. :)

Overall this was a wonderful property. The closeness to beach/water, restaurants, things to do was great. However, there were several things that should be addressed for a property of this pricing; The locks were hard to use (especially the front door, they did send someone out, but it didnt solve the issue), the wood deck is in bad shape (two people tripped on boards, no injury) and I woke up to flying ants in my bed & on me, fortunately there was another bedroom for us to use. They were suppose to send someone out to take care of this issue, Im not sure if they did or not, NO CALL. Again, for the price... The sunset view from the upper deck is spectacular : )

One of the best view on the island
Large house with space for 2 groups. Our son and friends stayed in downstairs original house and my wife and I stayed upstairs. We were able to work and sleep without being disturbed by our younger guests.
2 kitchen areas, but no stove / oven upstairs, only electric hot plate. Appliances, cooking utensils, and all TVs need updating. If you are at beach and outside all day, not a big deal. But we had cool weather and that resulted in more indoor time. I suggest new kitchen furnishings and stove upstairs.
Overall, we loved the view and location, but disappointed in furnishings.
