Swaying Palms April 2025 stay

Over all a great property. VRBO add on fees were a shock. House in general was in good shape. Well equipped with good beds, good kitchen appliances. Fridge is large and the ice maker actually works! Pool was nice and clean. Location is great. Our only negatives are the umbrella over the hot tub and the grill. The umbrella fabric is gone and the mechanism broken. It couldn't be moved out of the way. The ends of the umbrella were in a walkway and at nose height for most of my taller group. Hazard! Unit should be fixed or removed. The grill is small and a very cheap model. Flared up from grease fires no mater what we were cooking.

Loved this house for IMG & Anna Maria!

Loved our stay, beautiful clean home- very thoughtful in what was provided in the kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms, etc. Hot tub and pool were great, pool heater worked very well. Super close to IMG Academy, was literally one left turn and a straight shot in under 10 minutes. Easy, quick drive to Anna Maria Island. Beach towels and beach chairs, umbrellas, mats, boogie boards were all available for us to use. We would definitely stay again for our next IMG event and recommend to anyone coming in for an event at IMG!

Relaxing Beach Vacation!

This house was perfect for our family beach vacation! It is in a safe and quiet neighborhood. It is close to all of the beaches in the area. We went to Bean Point beach on Anna's Maria Island nearly everyday. It is also in a very convenient location to stores and restaurants. The house is very clean, beds are comfortable, and the pool & hot tub were so relaxing & enjoyable! Also, it was so nice having access to the garage so it car wasn't baking in the sun. Thank you for a wonderful time! Hopefully, we'll be able to visit again.
