Inside, you'll find quality furnishings, a large master suite with a king bed, a whimsical guest room with two twin beds, and nook in the living room with a full futon for extra sleeping space.

We love the Sassy Seahorse

We've been vacationing here for several years. We love the location, the backyard, and the ability to bring along our dog. Larry has continued to be a lovely host each year. This was our first visit after the hurricanes. It was wonderful to see the resilience and hard work from everyone on AMI. We can't wait to visit again.

This place is excellent, inside and out. The house is perfectly maintained, spacious and very comfortable. The backyard with pool is even better. Great place to lounge after a day on the beach. Location is excellent, 2 blocks from bay, 4 blocks from beach at northern tip. Larry was a a perfect host. Always responded immediately if we had any questions.

Island Oasis

This was the perfect place to stay with my husband and our son (just under a yr old). The house was the perfect size for us and had anything we needed from frying pans to pool/beach supplies. The location is also great as you’re within walking distance to both the beach and the bay. We’re already planning our trip for next year and will be returning to the Sassy Seahoirse. Owners were great and very easy to communicate with.

Great location, extremely well stocked, incredible pool area

While not on the beach directly, access to the beach was simple (couple blocks walk). Even on the 4th of July weekend the portion of the beach we accessed was much less crowded than other beaches we've gone to during the same time period. Being within walking distance was hugely beneficial since parking at the access point was extremely limited. The property itself was immaculate and well stocked with plenty of bath and beach towels, extra sheets and pillows, starter soap, paper towels, and toilet paper. The kitchen was the most well stocked we've seen, with plenty of cooking, serving, and utensils and (uncharacteristic of other places we stayed) plenty of NICE containers for leftovers. The biggest draw for the "sassy seahorse", though, is the pool area in the back yard. Beautifully landscaped and private, the area was SO relaxing any time of day, and beautifully lit at night. Even in the heat of the day, the tiki hut with its fan was fine for dining outside. While there are certainly newer and bigger properties closer to the beach, in peaking over the fences I still feel this property had the nicest and most private of any we saw. We would definitely go back to the Sassy Seahorse.

Relaxing family beach trip

The property was a perfect home base for our family of four. Our youngest still naps so we appreciated the great pool and outdoor areas to utilize during naps after a break from the beach or fishing. The listing is exactly as stated and the owner is very helpful with any questions. Would highly recommend to others and return ourselves.

Sassy Seahorse; A Perfect Get-away

Our trip to Anna Maria Island was Thirty-three days of lush, tropical paradise that my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed. The house was clean, comfortable, and supplied with everything we could possibly need during our stay. It was also beautifully furnished and adorned with colorful art throughout. The pool/spa area was an oasis of tall flourishing palm trees, colorful plant life, and whimsical garden art. And to top it off, there was a large, furnished tiki bar for us to enjoy! Our host, Larry was excellent! We’ve never experienced a more accommodating host. If we could give the Sassy Seahorse a 10-star rating, we would.

We loved everything about our stay. The house was so clean and comfortable and perfectly situated at the north end of AMI in a quiet friendly neighborhood. The backyard felt like a resort oasis with the beautiful foliage and furniture surrounding the pool and hot tub.
