Plenty of kitchen supplies. Love that they provided coffee! Joe was amazing and very easy to get a hold of and handled everything promptly. Maybe just a few suggestions, a couple extra towels for the bathroom would be great, maybe mirrors in the bedrooms, so you can get ready in them if needed. The twin beds maybe need new frames, very loud. But we loved the place! Location is fabulous!

We really enjoyed a 1week stay with the Family. House is perfectly equipped, nice large kitchen and living room + 3 rooms. Beach equipment incl. Sun umbrellas were available + Beach towels. Beach about 8 minutes walking distance…but also enjoyed the Little Pool in the Garden. Hello Joe, Thanks again for the Support and good recommendations.

Simply Wonderful

This is a lovely, impeccably clean and quiet duplex and our group of two adults and three teenaged girls were very comfortable and happy here for the week. The pool is private and warm and perfect for a post-beach day dip. The walk to the beach takes about 10 minutes and the beach gear provided in the garage is in great condition - as are the bikes which we rode every day! Working with the homeowner was a breeze and we had zero issues during our stay. Will definitely consider returning to this home on our favorite island!

Beautiful house

We had a fantastic week on the island, and loved this house. We found it exactly as advertised, and had everything you need to enjoy a week at the beach. The house was well stocked with all the kitchen extras, games and puzzles. The bikes were in excellent condition and the beach chairs seemed brand new. We enjoyed lounging by the warm pool and biking to the beach. There’s coffee, restaurants and shopping in walking distance. Joe was a fantastic renter, communicated everything very well and was always available to answer questions. We would definitely rent this house again if we return to the island.

Excellent Stay

This place has everything! The house was clean and spacious and had a well stocked kitchen for cooking. The gorgeous private pool and patio were perfect when we did not want to go to the beach but still wanted to be in the sun or by the water. The bikes and the beach supplies (lots of supplies) were an awesome added touch. It was only a short walk to the public beach access, which made trips to the beach quick and easy - perfect if you just want to head over for a stroll on the beach or to catch the amazing sunsets. Check in was very smooth and communication was easy and responsive - an excellent host! There are several restaurants and bars nearby, but we did not take advantage of those this time around. We would love to return and look forward to taking advantage of more of what the area has to offer.

Perfect ♡

This was the perfect property for us. It had everything we could possibly need for our 10 day stay. The host was a dream to deal with. Any messages were dealt with promptly. The location is ideal and only a short walk from the beach with all beach gear supplied including trolleys to get everything there. Ugly Grouper and a selection of shops just around the corner. Everything else within easy reach. Fab! If I had to pick one tiny thing to add to the very well equipped property it would have been a full length mirror but this in no way detracted from our experience. Big thanks to our hosts for a wonderful stay.

Home away from home

This property was absolutely beautiful! I didn’t expect it to look as it did in the photos, but I was pleasantly surprised. I have never stayed in a place that was as spotless as this home. The owner was so accommodating and the communication was amazing. This was the perfect size for a family of six. There was nothing that we needed. Everything was provided. Since we stayed in the middle of July, and the weather was extremely hot, we opted to drive to the beach instead of walk. Otherwise the beach would have been easy to get to. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone visiting Ana Maria Island, and would definitely revisit.
