Perfect place for my wife and I. Just the right amount of space for us with a private pool and 1 block to beach access. We’ll definitely stay there again in the future. Beach was not overcrowded and there was very little traffic on that end of the island. Neighborhood was quiet and we were able to relax

Cuter than the photos

Great place for a family of four. The main living space was cuter than it looked in the photos, and the kitchen had pretty much everything we needed. Very comfortable beds. Very short walk to a nice beach, and the pool area was wonderful and felt very private with the fences and tall palm trees. We flew in, so it was nice to have beach towels, chairs, cooler and wagon already there. We contributed a beach umbrella for future guests. I would recommend providing a few more board games or a puzzle or two. The master bathroom is ready for a refresh, but everything was in working order.

Beautiful bamboo breeze

This property was exactly what we needed. Privacy with a pool, 3 minute walk to the beach. The trolly when you don't want to drive. I would move here long term if they rented it like that. Screened in front porch for listening to the rain and relaxing. Out by the pool to grill steaks. Love this place and definitely want to come back. Any questions we had were immediately answered. Plenty of kitchen supplies. The only thing I would do different is put full or queen size beds where the twin beds are. Thank you so much for letting us share your slice of paradise!

Excellent location and outdoor area/pool

Our group of four visited the island on a girls trip with the main point of relaxing and enjoying the sunshine and warmth. This property was perfect for that! The location really is steps to the beach, and the part of the beach it's close to is one of the less busy spots. A 1-mile walk in either direction will bring you to shops and restaurants, and there is a trolley stop just across the street as well. The house itself is nice with the open interior, but the outdoor pool area is fabulous. The shaped pool with built-in sun seating was very pleasant. The winds dropped some debris from the vegetation, but there was a pool net supplied so we could scoop it out. For those looking to cook, the kitchen has only the bare necessities. We made due with what was there but had to get creative at times. The king bed is great, the two twins would be good for children but could stand to be upgraded for adults to sleep comfortably. Our one minor complaint was that there were only three lounge chairs though the pictures showed four. Both an email and a text to the property manager were unanswered, so we took turns with the three chairs. As with most properties we saw on the island, the outdoor area backs up with neighboring properties and during the day the noise level from kids playing was quite noticeable.

Ana Maria experience

The property was in poor condition, the living room furniture smell bad, the bed cover was smelly, some of the range burners were not working, the dishwasher did not work on the first day and the maintenance man had to fixed it, one of the table chair leg was coming off, very dangerous for 4 people over 65 years old, if it had come off, also the king bed was so hard I had to sleep on the couch because of a bad shoulder, the bedroom vertical blinds where not working. Over all the property was in very poor condition to be rented

Bamboo Breeze was very nice! Really enjoyed our own private pool surrounded by bamboo trees. Beach was a short stroll away. Just 3 of us so there was ample bath and beach towels and kitchen utensils. Loved that there were beach chairs and umbrellas we could use. Nice quiet area. Would definitely consider coming here again!

Pros: Private pool Pool patio area- nice to have shady areas during day (mix of shade and sun) Very close to beach- easy walk Cons: Kitchen not well supplied (for example low number of glasses, no cutting board, no food storage containers for leftovers, no aluminum foil etc) Beds not comfortable Inadequate outdoor lighting made outdoor space almost unusable at night/evening

The entire family had a wonderful stay.

We had a great experience. Only issues we had were that the WiFi didn't work after the first day being there, the mattress on the sleeper sofa could be replaced because its really uncomfortable and the blinds in the master bedroom were missing some slats. The home was so close to a wonderful beach and the island was a blast! The home was super clean, had a wonderful small pool and great beach accessories with a wagon. The front left wheel on the wagon was a tad wobbly, but it still worked great! Thank you for a great stay!

Great location and pool

We had a wonderful week at Bamboo Breeze for our family of 4. Greatly appreciated the wagon and beach chairs however, the umbrella was missing parts. Plenty of beach and bath towels which was great. Beds in bedrooms were comfy but pullout sleeper sofa was not at all. For a condo that sleeps 6, there could have been more every day drinking glasses. Maintenance and office was great when we called for assistance. We recommend a weeklong stay and are thankful for the wonderful week of Florida sunshine that we enjoyed! Cozy pool area and the gas grill was nice to have too.

Good location, nice pool, needs care and maintenance in every room

Liked the pool, in proximity to beach. But every room needs maintenance due to marks on every wall, door frame etc. Items loose, leaking aircon (still), dirty, dishwasher was not working (was leaking as well). Needs a lot of work in general so considering overpriced. The pool is awesome! Aircon lowest setting 72F so when summer... will not cool sufficiently likely. Needs repainting everyroom. Cleaning standards below standard. Pillows can be improved.

Spacious, clean and well-furninshed – and just steps from the beach!

The place had everything our family needed for a week on the island. Only minor issue was a wall AC unit in the living room that dripped significantly. Nothing a few towels couldn't take care of, but it was something we had to keep an eye on to prevent water damage to the windowsill below. The red tide was a bummer, but with a nice pool and a trolley stop 200 feet away, we were able to make the best of it. Having beach chairs, boogie boards, and a wagon for us to use made everything super easy. Would stay here again.

Our stay at Bamboo Breeze exceeded expectations. House is spacious, clean, comfortable, and private; great location. Just one lot away from the beach and a terrific spot to watch the sun set into the gulf. I rated it as 4 *s only because there was a slightly musty aroma when we checked in.
